Abridgement of all my doctrines which I euer taught in sixe principles, I thought withal by this occasion to de∣dicate to you these two short Sermons: One the Practise of the Saints, preached at the Funerall of your kinse∣woman Mistres Francis Perker: the other, the Perseue∣rance of the Saints, first copied out at the earnest re∣quest of one of your kinsmen; and therunto haue ioyned two short Treatises of the Sacrament of the Supper; one touching the doctrine thereof, the other touching the du∣tie of Communicants; the one informing the iudgement in the truth of that Mysterie; the second working the af∣fections to a reuerend loue and regard, and to a carefull vse of it. Accept them as poore loue-tokens, pardon my presumption in presenting them vnto the world vnder your names; vse them to your best benefit; and he, whose truth it is, write it in your hearts to your eternall good.
Your Kins-man T. W.
