Transcription
Chamberlayne returns Leeuwenhoek’s article for the Philosophical Transactions with slight changes that better reflect the nuances of Leeuwenhoek’s scientific language, especially regarding worms and maggots. John Chamberlayne was a translator and editor specializing in modern languages which he studied at the University of Leiden. He translated works on many topics, was a fellow of the Royal Society, and published three works in the Philsophical Transactions (Reavley Gair, Chamberlayne, John (1668/91723), Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Oct 2009 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/5060, accessed 30 May 2011]).
