+Because the doctor of Catholic truth ought not only to teach the
+proficient, but also to instruct beginners (according to the Apostle:
+As unto little ones in Christ, I gave you milk to drink, not meat -- 1
+Corinthians 3:1-2), we purpose in this book to treat of whatever
+belongs to the Christian religion, in such a way as may tend to the
+instruction of beginners. We have considered that students in this
+doctrine have not seldom been hampered by what they have found written
+by other authors, partly on account of the multiplication of useless
+questions, articles, and arguments, partly also because those things
+that are needful for them to know are not taught according to the
+order of the subject matter, but according as the plan of the book
+might require, or the occasion of the argument offer, partly, too,
+because frequent repetition brought weariness and confusion to the
+minds of readers.

+Quia Catholicae veritatis doctor non solum provectos debet instruere,
+sed ad eum pertinet etiam incipientes erudire, secundum illud apostoli
+I ad Corinth. III, tanquam parvulis in Christo, lac vobis potum dedi,
+non escam; propositum nostrae intentionis in hoc opere est, ea quae ad
+Christianam religionem pertinent, eo modo tradere, secundum quod
+congruit ad eruditionem incipientium. Consideravimus namque huius
+doctrinae novitios, in his quae a diversis conscripta sunt, plurimum
+impediri, partim quidem propter multiplicationem inutilium
+quaestionum, articulorum et argumentorum; partim etiam quia ea quae
+sunt necessaria talibus ad sciendum, non traduntur secundum ordinem
+disciplinae, sed secundum quod requirebat librorum expositio, vel
+secundum quod se praebebat occasio disputandi; partim quidem quia
+eorundem frequens repetitio et fastidium et confusionem generabat in
+animis auditorum.
