To his worthy Friend, and loving Fellow∣servant, the AVTHOR.

TIs an old custome that this Age hath got, To praise their friends in print, Ile praise thee, not Because I am thy friend; onely Ile tell The World, the WORKE which thou hast done so well Speakes both thy worth and praise; it cannot misse, Those that are not thy friends must needs praise this; This thy COMMERCE, Child of thine Industrie, Joyning both POLES in neere affinitie, Nurse of thy Countries honor, and by which Onely, all Kingdomes of the World grow rich; And (by the Currant of a mutuall Trade) Thou shewst how happie all the Earth is made. Let others praise Thee; yet in the degree Of Vertue, live belov'd by W. B.
