Whereupon I thought fit to re-commend the fame to betranflatcd anew by amore dihgentandzealous Pen,which hath fincetravelled in it; andthough it dill comes shortof that lively and incomparable Spirit and Ex-preflion, which lived and died with the A^W,yet I dare avouch it to bemuch more warrant-able and agreeable then the former. It is true,this Book^w^ks not intended to have been pub-lished m Englilh ; but feeing it hath been alreadymade free of that Languaoe, whatfoevcr benefitor deHght may redound from it, I commend thefame to the Courteoiu and fudtcioiis Reader, } A ^ To To the prefent Age and Pofterit>^, Greeting.
