TO THE FAVOURERS OF ANTIQVITY.
THis Discourse of Stone-heng is moulded off, and cast into a rude Form, from some few indigested notes of the late judicious Architect, the Vitruvius of his age Inigo Iones. That so venerable an Antiquity might not perish, but the world made beholding to him for restoring it to light, the desires of severall his learned Friends have encouraged me to compose this Treatise. Had he survived to have done it with his own hand, there had needed no Apology. Such as it is, I make now yours. Accept it in his name, from
