A THEREE-FOLD COMMENTARY upon the most excellent Song of Salomon.

The First, by way of Exposition, making all things obscure, more and more cleare to the understanding of every intelligent Reader.

The Second, by way of Paraphrase, in Meeter.

The Third, by way of observation, for the further edification of the Reader in the knowledge, and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

A WORKE, By the reading and serious consideration whereof, the Soule not given over to a reprobate sence, cannot but be ravished with the Love of Christ, and joy of the Holy Ghost, and moved to repent of Sin, and so elevated to things above, as to set light by afflications, or pleasures, or profits here below.

BY JOHN MAYER, Doctor in Divinity.

LONDON: Printed for Robert Ibbitson, and Thomas Roycroft. 1652.
