To the Jngenious peruser desirous to Learn the Most, vsefull, Accomplishment of Short-Writeing

Since the Decease of my quondam Master Mr Ieremiah Rich J haue taken noe small pains to Reduce his Jncomparable art into a more easy and Expeditious method soe that the meanest Capacitys may learn it in a uery short space bestowing but one howers Time in a day provided they will but heedfolly observe the Rules that are set before them and proceed orderly, Learnig one Rule throughly first, before they goe to the next, which they may well afford to doe, since the whole is Contrived with soe much plainenesse and Brevity, as might neither Clogg ye memory nor put the Vnderstanding upon the Racke, it was not first attempted with any thoughts of comeing to publique Veiw, But seeing that severall have highly pretended and Endeavoured to Bring it to something Extraordinary wherein yet their pains hath hetherto­in my apprehension failed of that successe which the world expected I, have therefore for the Authors sake and the Reguard I beare to his mem­ory and Excellent Art ventured this small peice to seeke its fortune amo­ngst the rest in which I have wholly built vpon his Foundation not endeavouring to overthrowe his Ingenious structure, but only add thereunto more Beauty and ornament, and though very many Considerable Improve­ments have been made, as the Iudicious will soon discerne yet I have soe Designed it, that the New Testament and Psalmes which are printed in Mr Richs Caracter, may bee read perfectly by those that shall Learn only this, and such as haue Learnd another method already may yet find much help from this for their further Improvement both as to exact Reading and ready — writeing, and therefore desiring the Ingenious practitioner to accept of my Good will heerein I rest

An unfaigned Lover of Art Nathaniell Stringer

To his Jngenious Freind M, Nathaniell, Stringer on his Vsefull Work Jn Jmproveing Mr Richs Short-Hand, Jntituled, RICH REDIVIVUS

Vanish dull Scriblers with your Long Short-Hands
Or Scrawl on still what noe man understands
Your tedious methods soe perplext and darke
They are out-run by every Limping Clarke.
The Art is Rescu'd from such Bungling hands
And here Display'd in full Meridian Stands
Words Homer says have Wings, but now wee find
The Fleeter Pen Leaves them to Lagg behind
Swifter than Towring Eagles snatch their prey
Or full blowne Sails glide on their path lesse way
Quicke as an Angell darting through the Air
When he Convoys to Heaven a good mans prayer
With equall pace Can thes Rare Art Expresse
Each quaint Oration in its native Dresse
The fluentst, sermons word for word wee Reach
Though utter'd faster then shee Quakers preach
Ingenious Rich Discoverd first the Mine
But Stringers skill has stampd it Current Coyne
One Laid the plat-form, but the other Lent
More Light Clear method and new Ornament
And Now thy Worthy Work Compleat wee See
And pay our Equall Thanks to Rich and thee
Hen. Care

To his Freind, the Auther on this His Jngenious Worke Jntituled RICH REDIVIVUS

Had I the happy Genius to Endite
In lofty Verse as fast as thou canst write
I might not then perhaps dispair to Raise
A worthy Monument unto thy Praise
That might in Smooth and well Tun'd numbers tell
How much thy pen all others doth Excell
But being dull I can proceed noe Higher
Then to approve thy Labours, and Admire
The Magicke of thy Industry Alarms
The silent Ghosts, who yeeld unto its Charms
By honest Negromancy here wee have
Ingenious Rich raisd from his Slumbering Grave
Who though surprizd is yet Content to see
His Art Refind, Improvd, out done by thee
Whose pains makes gratefull Brevity to Vye
In these few Leaves with perspicuity
The whole soe short, and yet soe plainely pend
The dullest Brains thy Rules may Comprehend
The use of such rare Art & Various worth
Deserves wholle Volummes for to sett it forth
It preserves secrets from the Curious Eye
Saves tedious pains, Releives the Memory
And Clipps Tymes wings, for thus transcribe wee may
More in one hower, then others in a day
The Heavenly Seed which powerfull Preachers sowe
By help of This is made move like to Growe
For Manna gather'd thus, Lasts many a yeare
Which elce too oft is lost by the treacherous Ear
Then on my frind Reguard not Criticks Rage
But with thy Booke oblige our slothfull Age
Though Envy fret and barke and disapprove
The Good and Iust will pay Applase and Love

The places of the othere four vowells is thus ↑ aiou

you have not roome for ye place of (a) at tope: then even with ye tope thus ↑ aiou

If a word begines with a single or double or a treble Consonant end with a Vowel you must write your Consonants and set a title in the place of the Vowel as you may see in these examples.
sa [...] fla [...] stra [...] Note also that two short hand (els) sta­nds for (pl) as you may see in these. pla [...]
si [...] fli [...] stri [...] pli [...]
so [...] flo [...] stro [...] plo [...]

If a word end with a Consonant you must set your Consonant which followes the Vowel in the Vowels place as thus.
ball [...] fall [...] tame [...] ram [...] dam [...]
bill [...] fill [...] time [...] rime [...] dim [...]
boll [...] foll [...] tom [...] roome [...] dom [...]
bull [...] full [...] tun [...] run [...] dum [...]

If a word begines with a double Consonant and ends with a double Consonant you must observe to Ioyne your doble Consonants to gether till you com to a Vowle and then to set those Consonants wich follow the Vowel in the Vowels place as you may see in these examples.
flame [...] walke [...] would [...] flank [...] stranger [...]
from [...] talke [...] should [...] drank [...] stringer [...]
frame [...] blanke [...] blind [...] frank [...] stronger [...]
blame [...] thank [...] blast [...] drunk [...] strugler [...]

And for as much as in this art wee must write much in a little roome it is required that all Superfluous letters be left out as (y) after (a) and (w) after (a) and (w) after (o) and (u) after (q) and (w) before (n) and (b) when it followes (w) and (c) before (h) and (t) before (ch) and (d) before (g) and (gh) and (ugh) allwayes when thay come together must be left out and (c) must be changed for (k) or (s) acording as the word is sounded and (I) when it is a Consonant must be changed for (g) or sounded like (g) and (ph) for (f) as you may se in these.

Note that a title set behind the word stands for (s) or (es) as in these.
hence [...] whence [...] false [...] bales [...] bules [...]
fence [...] peace [...] marks [...] biles [...] hiles [...]

Note that (e) must be left out before these letters f l m n r s x and (e) must be left out after these letters b d g p * as you may se in these
efficacy [...] empty [...] ernest [...] exceed [...] defame [...]
elder [...] emblem [...] erl [...] befall [...] gender [...]

(a) and (ea) may some times be left out before (r) when (r) will sound it as well
art [...] arch [...] argent [...] earth [...] earldom [...]
arm [...] ardent [...] argue [...] early [...] earl [...]
ark [...] armes [...] article [...] earnest [...] earthen [...]
ador [...] arbiter [...] artist [...] earn [...] earthye [...]

And (t) must be cast up after l m n op as you may se in these exampless
felt [...] helmet [...] gent [...] ment [...] krept [...]
melt [...] empty [...] shent [...] kent [...] kept [...]
smelt [...] bent [...] spent [...] grant [...] slept [...]
welt [...] lent [...] rent [...] ought [...] swept [...]

(n) stands for (m) when it [...] Ioyned alone for (ing) and for (ness) dis joyned and (th) makes (eth) and (d) makes (ed) and (l) makes (ly) or (les) and when (ing) comes at ye end of these letters m n p you must make it as for example.
seing [...] badness [...] saved [...] matchless [...] thing [...]
being [...] saveth [...] landed [...] hopeless [...] pinning [...]
doeing [...] watcheth [...] ruddely [...] helples [...] hopeing [...]
dulness [...] heareth [...] badly [...] naming [...] helping [...]
fullness [...] aded [...] safely [...] aming [...] nipping [...]

(t) and (a) are both alike therefore to distinguish them you must Ioyne from the tope of (a) and from the bothem of (t) as you may se in these
alter [...] allure [...] alone [...] truth [...] trapping [...]
alsoc [...] allway [...] already [...] trust [...] trial [...]
almost [...] amber [...] travel [...] trace [...] triumph [...]
amend [...] amble [...] tredden [...] trade [...] trumpet [...]

If a word begines with a Vowel you must write your Vowel and Ioyne your next Consonant to it as you may se in these examples.
am [...] eli [...] ill [...] ou [...] utter [...]
and [...] eue [...] it [...] or or our [...] vessle [...]
all [...] elisabeth [...] idle [...] ould [...] vex [...]
andra [...] each [...] if [...] olive [...] uper [...]

If two Vowels come togethere in one word you must then take that Vowell which soundes the word best as for example.
heare [...] beaten [...] death [...] guile [...] sheild [...]
weart [...] beast [...] health [...] foyle [...] feild [...]
treat [...] feast [...] wealth [...] heavie [...] cleane [...]
taunts [...] asalts [...] beautie [...] cleave [...] heale [...]

And when (or) or (our) [...]omes al the end of a word you may make an (r) for them as you may se in these examples following.
fervor [...] umor [...] behaueour [...] oratour [...] creditour [...]
rasor [...] tahor [...] armour [...] monilour [...] colour [...]
favor [...] ardor [...] manour [...] manour [...] rumour [...]
la [...]or [...] peer [...] endeavour [...] clamour [...] warrior [...]
For your case in writing and reading you may sometimes Ioyne a vowel as thus

You must some times make a (u) for a (w) as you may see in these.
How [...] Brows [...] Sow [...] Shower [...] [...]ow [...]
Now [...] Flower [...] Mower [...] Alow [...] Tow [...]r [...]
When you meet with these words following or any of the like, nature you must write them as thay best sound: and not to true spelling
