The Translator, to the Christian reader.

THou shalt receiue here, I hope, (Chri∣stian Reader) vnto thy great comfort, these short discour∣ses and meditations, if thou reade them with iudgement, and accor∣ding to sobriety: the titles of which thou shalt finde set downe seue∣rally and a part in the next page before. Accept therefore I beseech thee, both the great paine of the Author, and my poore trauell in translating of them, which I trust I haue faithfully done according to his meaning, and looke what bene∣fit thou reapest by them, be first thankefull vnto God, and next vn∣to him, and so I commit them to thy gentle accepta∣tion.
