Short-writing the most easie, exact, lineal and speedy method that hath ever been obtained or taught : Composed by Theophilus Metcalfe, author and professor of the said art. The fifty-fifth edition. The copper cuts having been newly corrected, with a new table for shortning of words. Which book is able to make the practitioner perfect without a teacher. As many hundreds in this city, and elsewhere, that are able to write sermons word for word, can from their own experience testifie. A young man that lately lived in Cornhill, learned so well by this book, that he wrote out all the Bible in this character. |
