The Iesuits Miracles, or new Popish Wonders. Containing the Straw, the Crowne, and the Wondrous Child, with the confutation of them and their follies [by Robert Pricket] | ||
To the Reader.
Gentle Reader,A good mind be thy leader:
And then so led,
Be thou with contentment fed.
An honest loue,
Doth me, thus to writing moue:
Accept, and then
VVell rewarded is my pen.
But pleas'd, if not
Equally, deuide the lot.
Indeed my Muse,
A blunt souldiers-words doth vse.
Here, in this booke,
Do for Popish VVonders looke.
A slocke of Dawes,
Gaping skip, at painted strawes.
And Æsops Asse,
Creates greatly, wondrous Grasse.
A little Child
With wonders, great fooles beguild.
These, thousands more,
Are the ragges of Popish store.
VVhat I haue done,
Thus doth to thy iudgement ronne.
And I am still
Thy good friend, and euer will.
That in thy hart,
To God, and King, faithfull art.
Thus thine euer, Or else neuer. R. P.
