[1197] The words follow, scored out, 'but no writer that ever I heard
of, or if he was,' [his writings].
[1198] Subst. for 'or remembered him.'
[1199] The statement in square brackets is scored out, and the comment
added 'negat.' Aubrey had enquired of Philips.

[1204] Ibid., fol. 354: 21 June 1681.
[1205] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 30.
[1206] This title is subst. for 'Supplementum vitae Thomae Hobbes,
Malmsburiensis': see p. 17.
[1207] There are two other drafts of the opening sentence:--'The
ancients, when they writt the lives'; 'It was usuall with the writers
of the lives of the ancient philosophers, in the'.
[1208] Dupl. with 'stock.'
[1209] Dupl. with 'rich' or 'illustrious.'
[1210] Dupl. with 'derived.'
[1211] Dupl. with 'though of no illustrious family.'
[1212] Dupl. with 'extraction.'
[1213] Dupl. with 'great parts.'
[1214] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 29ᵛ.
[1215] i.e. for the etymology; _infra_, p. 324.
[1216] Aubrey's MS. is only a rough draft for Anthony Wood's perusal.
Hence these queries.
[1217] For the pedigree supplied by William Aubrey, see _infra_, p. 388.

[1221] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 29ᵛ.
[1222] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 30.
[1223] Dupl. with 'vicar.' Anthony Wood wrote in the margin 'vicar of
Malmsbury,' but scored it out, as in error.
[1224] Wood wished to add 'or Sir Rogers.'
[1225] Dupl. with 'did.'
[1226] Dupl. with 'valued not.'
[1227] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 29ᵛ.
[1228] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 30.
[1229] i.e. Thomas, the father.
[1230] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 31.
[1231] Dupl. with 'pasture.' In MS. Aubr. 3, fol. 28, Aubrey calls it
'a good moweing ground, called Gaston, not far from the house he <T.
H.> was borne in.'
[1232] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 30ᵛ.
[1233] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 31.
[1234] Dupl. with 'with,' i.e. with his uncle, as well as to his trade.
[1235] Dupl. with 'about.'
[1236] Dupl. with 'face.'
[1237] In MS. Aubr. 3, fol. 28, Aubrey says, 'He <T.H.> had an elder
brother, named Edmund Hobbes, more then once alderman of Malmesbury':
but this is probably an error, from confusing him with the uncle.
[1238] Dupl. with 'parts.'
[1239] i.e. William Aubrey.
[1240] Dupl. with 'boy'
[1241] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 32.
[1242] Dupl. with 'pourtraying.'
[1243] Other drawings of Malmsbury by Aubrey are in MS. Aubr. 3, fol.
35 and 39.
[1244] On this Anthony Wood comments:--'I think 'tis fit it should be
drawne and represented, for the abbey sake. 'Tis cheap to have cut in
box.'
[1245] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 32.
[1246] scil. of the 'neck of land.'
[1247] Dupl. with 'melted.'
[1248] Dupl. with 'adorned.'

[1257] Quoted from Hobbes' metrical life of himself.
[1258] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 33.

[1260] Aubrey notes opposite this sentence:--'This is good.'
[1261] Dupl. with 'and then.' Subst. for 'at eight yeares of age he
could.'
[1262] Written at first 'Three Tunnes (quaere William Aubrey)': and
then changed when W. A. answered the query.
[1263] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 34.
[1264] Dupl. with '25 +.'
[1265] Dupl. with 'the oven' <dupl. with 'pies'> 'had devoured them.'
[1266] Dupl. with 'the boyes.'
[1267] Dupl. with 'strings.'
[1268] Dupl. with 'draw through.'
[1269] Anthony Wood corrects to 'the stationers' shops.'

[1271] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 34ᵛ.
[1272] This paragraph is an insertion by Anthony Wood in answer to
Aubrey's query.
[1273] His name is not entered in the University matriculation-register.
[1274] Part of the formula of admission: Clark's _Reg. Univ. Oxon._ II.
i. 48.
[1275] 1607/8; _ibid._ II. iii. 278.
[1276] _ibid._ II. i. 50.

[1279] Dupl. with 'did believe.'

[1281] Dupl. with 'was.'
[1282] Dupl. with 'notions.'
[1283] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 36.
[1284] The chronology is here difficult. William Cavendish, second earl
of Devonshire, died 20 June, 1628; and it is he whom Hobbes regarded as
his 'first' lord (see his inscription, _infra_, p. 386), not his father
William, first earl, who died 3 March, 1625/6. Bacon died 9 Apr. 1626.
[1285] Subst. for 'time.'
[1286] In the first attempt at this paragraph Aubrey wrote, 'T. H. came
into his native country. I was then a little youth and went to schoole
to Mr. Robert Latimer at Leigh-de-la-mere in the church about a mile
from my father's house (Easton Pierse).'
[1287] In a second attempt it stood '... at Leigh-de-la-mere. I was
then a little youth newly entred into my grammar by him, and we went to
schoole in the church.'
[1288] Dupl. with 'came to.'
[1289] Dupl. with 'friends.'
[1290] Dupl. with 'equipage.'
[1291] Here followed 'and moist-curled,' dupl. with 'and with moist
curles'; but both struck out.
[1292] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 35ᵛ.
[1293] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 36.
[1294] Anthony Wood writes here 'do not you mean 40?' Aubrey had
written '4' by a pen-slip; afterwards he corrected it.
[1295] 'Element' used for 'proposition.'
[1296] Subst. for 'He would now and then use an emphaticall oath.'
[1297] Dupl. with 'curious witt.'
[1298] 'Began it early' is written over, in explanation.
[1299] Dupl. with 'to the witts.'
[1300] Dupl. with 'then doe well.'

[1323] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 39.
[1324] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 37ᵛ.
[1325] i.e. fol. 50ᵛ of the MS., where is a note by Anthony Wood, as
given _infra_, p. 367.
[1326] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 39.
[1327] Subst. for 'which came out anno ...' Anthony Wood notes, 'Vide

vide transcript thence.'--MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 38ᵛ.
[1328] 'his _Dialogi_' followed: scored out.

[1330] 'a yeare +' followed: scored out.
[1331] Dupl. with 'an ill.'

[1334] Dupl. with 'good.'
[1335] Dupl. with 'want.'
[1336] Subst. for 'thought.'
[1337] Aubrey notes opposite this: 'better this expression.'
[1338] Dupl. with 'designe.'
[1339] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 42. On fol. 41ᵛ Aubrey makes this apology
for its coming there out of due order of time:--'Give notice how
things are to be right placed, for all things comes not into my memory
chronologically and this seemes almost necessary to be forced.'
[1340] Dupl. with 'way.'
[1341] Subst. for 'researching and contemplating one thing, then of
another; but he had a method for it.'
[1342] Dupl. with 'proviso' or 'observation.'
[1343] _Infra_, p. 382.
[1344] Dupl. with 'such a poeme.'
[1345] Sir John Vaughan, Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, 1668-1674.
[1346] Dupl. with 'great.'
[1347] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 7--'quaere bishop Sarum when he was motioned
to be burnt.' _Ibid._, fol. 7ᵛ, 'Quaere bp. Sarum <Seth Ward> who and
when (annum) the motion in parliament was to have Mr. Hobbes burnt.'
[1348] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 40.
[1349] Subst. for '1660. The winter before (of 1659) he spent his time
in Derbyshire.'
[1350] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 39ᵛ.
[1351] Dupl. with 'good newes.'
[1352] Dupl. with 'hearing.'
[1353] Dupl. with 'opportunity.'
[1354] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 41.
[1355] Aubrey writes opposite on fol. 40ᵛ:--'_embouche_, such word in
English?'
[1356] MS. has 'and,' by a slip for 'at.'
[1357] Dupl. with 'enterteyned.'
[1358] Dupl. with 'facetiae.'
[1359] Dupl. with 'the witts.'
[1360] Aubrey wishes to limit the readiness in reply to cases of light
badinage: in serious subjects Hobbes was slow and deliberate.
[1361] Dupl. with 'good.'
[1362] Dupl. with 'a present answer.'
[1363] Dupl. with 'mathematicall.'
[1364] i.e. see further about this on fol. 45ᵛ of the MS., the note
found _infra_, p. 356.
[1365] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 42.
[1366] Subst. for 'he last left London, he was often in London at his
lord's.'

[1375] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 42ᵛ.
[1376] Dupl. with 'I. A.'

[1386] Dupl. with 'hoped.'
[1387] Dupl. with 'but queen Katharine.'
[1388] Dupl. with 'hating him.'
[1389] Dupl. with 'prevented.'
[1390] '1674' is struck out and 1669/1670 substituted for it--this
latter being the date of Wood's altercations with Dr. Fell. 1674 was
the date of publication: see _infra_.
[1391] Anthony Wood struck out the passage enclosed in square brackets,
and sent Aubrey a more elaborate account (now fol. 48, 48ᵛ of MS. Aubr.
9) to take its place. This is printed in Clark's Wood's _Life and
Times_, ii. 291, 292; and is perhaps the paper which Wood blames Aubrey
for having kept, _ibid._ ii. 475, 476.
[1392] Aubrey added, in the margin, the correction 'A. W. sayes but
ten.'
[1393] Dupl. with 'the absolute.'
[1394] Wood adds 'and after.'
[1395] Dupl. with 'his great griefe, expunged and inserted what he
thought fitt.'
[1396] Corrected by Wood to '376, 377.' The mistake is made in Hobbes's
printed epistle, and Aubrey copied it thence.
[1397] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 45.
[1398] Corrected by Wood to 'without the advice and quite contrary to
the mind of the author.'
[1399] Corrected by Wood to 'know what he had done.'
[1400] Note on fol. 43ᵛ of MS. Aubr. 9. 'Page 15' in Aubrey's numbering
is now fol. 45 of the MS.
[1401] Wood adds 'in the beginning of 1674.'
[1402] i.e. John Aubrey.
[1403] Wood adds 'and to let him see that he would do nothing underhand
against him.'
[1404] Wood adds 'that he had sent to Mr. Wood.' See Clark's Wood's
_Life and Times_, ii. 288.
[1405] Wood adds 'at it as a most famous libell.'
[1406] Corrected by Wood to 'and, soon after, meeting with the author.'
[1407] Wood adds 'and that he would have the printer called to account
for printing such a notorious libell.'
[1408] The advance-copies of Wood's _Hist. et Antiq. Univ. Oxon._ were
issued July 17, 1674 (Wood's _Life and Times_, ii. 289); the ordinary
issue took place on July 27 (_ibid._, 290), being perhaps delayed for
the insertion of the rejoinder to Hobbes; Hobbes's epistle had been
circulated on July 11 (_ibid._, p. 288).
[1409] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 46.
[1410] Aubrey inserts a copy as fol. 44 of MS. Aubr. 9.
[1411] See it in Wood's _Hist. et Antiq._ at the end.
[1412] Dupl. with 'scurrilous.'

[1414] Dupl. with 'neglected.'

[1449] As an alternative Aubrey suggests:--'As he had an harmonicall
soule, so consequently he was no woman-hater (misogynist).' But he adds
the criticism that this sentence is 'perhaps too affected.'
[1450] MS. Aubr. 9, fol. 47.

Hobbes's religious opinions.

acquaintance. Why mention you not him?' Aubrey answers:--'Mr. T. Hobbs
