Note

"Hooke explains in his preface that this is the first of his Cutlerian Lectures to be published and that others will afterwards be printed in the same format so that they may be bound together. This lecture is therefore headed at the top of p. 1 Numb. 1."--G. Keynes, Bibliography of Robert Hooke, p. 30.
