TO THE READER.
IF I only Personate by a Prosopopeia, the Genius and Humor, the Strain and Language of an Ʋnlucky Witch, I can∣not Justly incur any Displeasure, nor the Imputation of a Crime. I make no other A∣pology to the Learned and Candid Reader, but hav good reasonable Hope, that he may reap some Benefit and Delight, whensoever he shall vouchsafe to divert himself from the Fatigues of more Serious Studies, to this Rhapsody: Especially, if he be a Lover of Vertue, whose Beauty is here, for Advantage, veiled by a Thin Lawn; And then I shall believe my Pains well bestowed. As for those that slight these Endeavours, I shall reckon them no better than Bewitcht. Farewell.
