printing, correctness of orthography, even in trivial matters, is
desirable, and therefore I venture, in allusion to the interesting
communication from [Curly-pi] on the subject of the Geneva or "_Breeches_"

probably from the Geneva edition. The English edition of 1576 runs thus,
(Gen. iii. 7.): "Then the eyes of them _both_ were opened, and they _knew_
