Note 13 — THE PIECES
Reading edition
Having gotten through the last of the pieces of which there are more than one of a sort, in order to confirm the reader in what he might suppose, and to leave him no question to make, we turn aside to observe to him, that the difference in the worth of pieces of the same kind, is indeed next to nothing; that the little odds there is, between superior pieces of the same description, is in favour of that on the king’s side; and that of the four centre commoners, which are reckoned rather the best, the king’s bishop’s commoner is the most esteemed.
