To the Reader.
REceiue, Courteous Reader, a true report of my dangerous Trauels, which will (I make no question) be as pleasing to thee in reading, as they were painefull to me in suffering. Heere thou maiest safely and without danger see that, which hath cost me many a tedious and weary step; many a cold and comfortlesse lodging; and ma∣ny a thin and hungry meale. I publish not these my Aduentures in any pride or Arro∣gancie: But I thinke, I should prooue in∣gratefull to my preseruer, not to let the world know his miraculous power, in safe∣garding me beyond mine owne hope or mans Imagination. The report of these my perils are freely thine, mine hath onely been the dangers and sufferance. Bee thou as well pleased with my faithfull discouery: as I am contented with my hard and paine∣ful Pilgrimage.
Thine ROBERT COVER••••
