First sentence: OUR amiable "introducer" having undertaken the task of vindicating one after another the greater part of the various so-called occult sciences, we shall not enlarge greatly, in the case of each of them, on a demonstration already carried out, being content, by putting in order and collecting into a seeming whole the numerous notes communicated to the writer of the preface, with completing it on certain points, adding to it a few historical sketches and a few remarks and anecdotes, expanding theory and practice as clearly as we are able so as to render this Encyclopaedia really popular.
