TO THE AVTHOR OF THIS WORK The Publisher thereof wisheth Grace in this world, and Glory in the world to come.
RIGHT WORSHIPFVLL,
IT pleased you as a testimonie of your loue, to bestow these your labours on me written with your owne hand: they being mine by a free donation on your part, I think I haue power to doe with them what I will. VVherefore I haue been bold to publish them; knowing that they are wel worth the publishing, and that thorough Gods blessing they may bring much spirituall comf••rt, and profit to Gods Church. Long continued custome requireth that they should haue a Patron. What better Pa∣tron can they haue then the true proper parent? who for eminencie of place can adde great coun∣tenance vnto them, and for excellencie in learning can maintain them. For mine owne part I acknow∣ledge my selfe many waies much indebted vnto your Worp. In testimony of my duty and thankful∣nesse, I returne that publikely vnto you, which pri∣uatly you were pleased to bestow on mee.
Black-Friers London. 25. April 1615.
Your Worps. to be commanded in the Lord, WILLIAM GOVGE.
