 T  may  peradueture  be  thought  in  re- 
 fpeft  of  the  matter  wherof  this  woork 
 treateth ,  that  it  ought  rather  to  haue

 weale,any  Citie,any  houfeholde,orany  company  bee  wel  gouerncd  or 
 haue  any  fhble  ana  long  continuance.Thefe  be  the  things  wherin  your 
 Lordship  may  do  God,your  Prmce.,and  your  Cuntrie  bed  feruice,and 
 which  do  giue  true  nobihtie,or  rather  are  the  very  nobilitie  it  felf  The 
 greater  that  you  are  of  birth  and  calling,the  more  doo  thefe  things  be- 
 long vnto  you.The  greater  gifts  of  Nature,  the  mo  graces  of  mind,the 
 mo  worldly  ben  elites  that  God  hath  bellowed  vppon  you :  the  more 
 are  you  bound  to  be  thankful  vnto  him.But  thankful  you  cannot  bee 
 without  the  true  knoweledge  of  him,ney  ther  can  you  know  him  right- 
 ly but  by  his  woord.For  his  woord  is  the  lanterne  ofyour  feeteand  the 
 light  ofyour  fteppes.  V  Vhofoeuer  walketh  without  it/walkcth  but  in 
 darkenelTe,  though  hee  were  otherwife  as  sharpe lighted  as  Linceus  or 
 ^r^ns, and  had  all  the  fciences,artes,conning,eloquence,and  wifedome 
 of  the  worlde.  No  found  and  fubflantiall  truthc  is  too  bee  founde  any 
 where  els  faue  onely  there,  And  therfbre  the  holy  Ghoft  by  the  mouth 
 of  Moy  fes  willeth  you  that  the  lawe  of  God  (that  is  to  (ay  his  word  and 
 doctrine)  shoulde  not  departe  from  your  mouth  ,  but  that  you  should 
 byndc  it  about  your  wrifts,imbroyder  it  vpon  your  garments,  ingraue 
 it  vpon  the  poftes  ofyour  houfe,and  write  it  in  the  tables  ofyour  hart. 
 And  Dauidfpeakingby  the  fame  fpiritc,  exhorteth  you  by  hisowne 
 example  to  fet  your  whole  delight  in  it,  too  occupy  your  felfe  in  it  day 
 and  night,too  lay  it  vp  in  your  hart,too  fet  more  ftore  by  it  than  by  n- 
 ches,to  be  mindeful  ofit,to  make  it  your  counfayler,to  flick  too  it,  too 
 talke  of  it  afore  Kings  and  greate  men,to  loue  it,too  make  your  fongs 
 of  it,to  remember  it  night  and  day , too  count  it  fweeter  than  Hony ,too 
 take  it  as  an  heritage,and  too  make  it  the  ioy  ofyour  hart.  Neyther  is  it 
 without  caufe  that  GOD  calleth  fb  ofte  vppon  Magiftrates  and  noble 
 men  by  name,that  they  should  be  diligent  in  his  worde.For  looke  how 
 muche  the  greater  burthen  and  charge  lyeth  vpon  their  shoulders,  and 
 the  greater  accounte  they  haue  to  make  afore  him  :  fb  muche  the  grea- 
 ter wifedome  and  knoweledge  haue  they  needof, which  are  not  to  be  at-

 how  God  hath  placed  you  vpon  a  high  ftage  in  the  eyes  of  all  men ,  as  a 
 guide,patternc,in(ample,and  leader  vnto  others.  If  your  vertu.s  be  vn- 
 counterfay  ted,if  your  religion  be  found  and  pure,if  your  doings  be  ac- 
 cording to  true  godlines :  you  shalbc  a  flay  to  your  cuntrie,a  comforte

 uicc.  And  among  the  reftc  of  them,it  is  thoughte  of  molt  learned  men, 
 that  next  vntoo  his  Inftitutions ,  this  pr  efente  volume  beareth  the  Bel, 
 bothefor  varietie  of  matter,fubfrantialnes  ofdoclrme,depth  of  nidge- 
 ment,and  perfeclnefTe  of  penning.  For  it  is  not  puffed  vp  with  vaine 
 found  of  emptic  woords,nor  with  Rhetorical  enlarging  of  painted  fen- 
 tences :  but  it  is  fluffed  with  piththy  and  grouded  matter,fuch  as  plain- 
 ly sheweth  him  too  haue  bin  a  man  indued  with  the  fpinte  of  God,and 
 alfo  well  practized  and  tryed  in  the  affaires  and  troubles  of  this  world. 
 What  is  to  bee  thought  of  the  tranflation  of  it :  that  I  rcmitte  to  you* 
 Lordships  fauourable  acceptation :  vnder  whofe  Antefigne  it  is  ray  de- 
 firc  that  it  may  fight  in  the  defence  and  maintenance  of  the  true  religi- 
 on, ageinft  Antichrifc  and  his  wicked  members.  Onely  thus  muche  I 
 may  fafely  fay  of  it,that  in  all  pointes  (to  the  vttermofte  of  my  power, 
 and  according  to  the  abilitie  which  God  hath  eriuen  me  to  edifiewith- 
 all)  I  haue  fincerely  performed  the  dutie  of  a  faithful!  Interpreter,  ra- 
 ther indeuenng  too  lay  foorth  things  plainlye  (yea  and  fbmetimes  alfo 
 homely  and  groflely)  too  the  vnderftanding  of  many  ,  than  too  indy  te 
 things  curyoufly  too  the  pleafing  of  a  fewe.For  in  tliis  and  fhche  other 
 workes,the  rude  and  ignorant  haue  more  intereft,  than  the  learned  and 
 f  kilfi.il.  If  any  thing  beamifle  (as  I  dare  not  prefumetoo  vpholde  that 
 nothing  hath  cfcaped  mee  in  fo  great  a  woorkc)  my  hartie  defire  is  that 
 the  fame  may  be  amended  by  fuch  as  arc  of  found  iudgement  6c  know- 
 ledge in  Gods  woorde ,  lb  as  no  inconuenience  may  enfue  of  it  too  the 
 churche  of  Cnrift.  And  look  what  I  requeft  in  the  behalfe  of  this  prc- 
 fent  booke :  the  fame  do  I  requeft  for  all  other  books  whiche  1  haue  or 
 (by  Gods  grace  and  permiflion)  shall  heerafter  put  foorth  for  the  edi- 
 fying of  Chryfres  flock :  for  1  knowe  how  fuche  things  are  the  woork 
 of  God  and  not  of  man.  What  remayneth  then,  but  that  your  Lord- 
 ship framing  your  felte  according  to  the  rule  of  Gods  mod  holy  word, 
 should  hie  you  apace  to  the  atteinmentofthe  true  honour  and  immor-

 cannot  bee  vanquished  but  by  a  chriften  ^fcbrlles .  and  by  your  good

 For  in  their  hands  is  malicioumes,and  their  right  hand  is  ful  of  bribes.

 Hauc  mercy  vppon  mce  6  Lord,  for  I  am  in  trubble :  mine  eye  is  con- 
 fumed  for  anger,fb  is  my  hart  alio  and  my  bely. 
 For  my  life  is  wafted  with  hcauineflc,  and  my  yeercs  with  moorning : 
 my  ftrength  wanzcth  away  in  my  forow,&  my  bones  arc  continued 
 I  was  a  reproch  by  rcafbn  ofall  mine  enimies,yea  euen  vnto  my  neigh- 
 bours exceedingly,and  a  fear  vnto  mine  acquaintance:and  they  that 
 faw  mee  aloofc  shunned  mce. 
 I  am  forgotten  as  one  dead  fro  the  hart,I  am  become  like  a  broken  vef- 
 
 feli. 
 For  I  haue  herd  the  rayling  of  the  multitude ,  and  feare  enclofcth  mec 
 about  whyle  they  lay  their  heads  togither  ageinft  me,and  take  coun- 
 fell  how  to  rid  mce  of  my  life.

 toll  the  happy  fate  of  that  Ciiie  with  royall  tytles,  in  that  it  hath  God  the  conti-

 time  to  come  3bicaufc  hee  had  adopted  them  for  his  peculiar  people .  Therfore  the 
 Prophet  ft  andcth  chcefly  ypon  this  poynt3that  Cods  San&uary  is  not  erc&ed  ypon 
 mount  Sion  for  nought,  but  that  his  name  is  called  ypon  there  3  to  the  intent  his

 wee  reade  not  that  they  proceeded  fo  farre  as  to  befeege  it ,  that  God  hadnecde  to

 heere  is  betokened  the  time  of  king  xAcha^,  when  the  fee ge  was  fodeinly  ray  fed  at

 that  at  thofc  times  Ierufalem  was  not  fatted  from  ytter  deftruciion  but  by  woon-

 To  the  intent  be  may  comprehend  many  things  infmall  rome,  it  is  to 
 be  noted, that  there  be  two  cheefe  poynts  of  this  p fame.  For  on  the  one  parte 
 the  Prophet  declareth  in  -what  forte  God  adopted  himfelfe  a  Churcbeoute 
 ofthefeede  of  Abraham,  howfwetely  and  gently  he  cherifhed  it,how  won 
 der fully  he  gathered  it  out  of Egipt ,and howe fundry  benefites  he  beflowed 
 rppon  if.iAnd  in  the  other  parte  he  ypbraideth  the  lews  with  their  froward 
 and  wicked  reuolting  from  time  to  time  from  fo  bownti full  a  father  3  who 
 had  made  themfo  muche  beholden  ynto  him,  that  his  ineflimable goodneffe 
 appeered,  not  only  in  the  yery  welfpring  of  his  fee  adoption  ybut  alfo  in  that 
 heneuer  ceafedto  ftriuewith  continuall  holding  on3againfi  the  flubbor- 
 neffe  of  fo  falfehayted  and  vnt  am  able  people. ^ind  he  maketh  mencion  of  the 
 renewingof  Gods  grace  and  as  it  were  of a  fecond  election  $f  his  3  at  what 
 time  he  cho^e  Dauid  out  of  the  Tribe  of  Iuda  t»  banc  the  gouernment  «f

 N  inftru&ion  of  Afaph.   Hcarc  my  Iawe  O  my  peoplejincline 
 your  eares  to  the  wordes  of  my  mouth. 
 I  wil  open  my  mouth  into  a  parable.I  wil  vtter  riddles  from 
 ofoldetime. 
 
 3  Which  vvehauehard  and  known,&  which  our  fathers  haue  de- 
 clared vnto  vs. 
 
 4  Wee  will  not  hide  them  from  their  children  in  the  generation  to 
 come,  f  hewing  forth  the  praifes  of  the  Lord,and  his  mighty  po~ 
 wer,and  his  wonderous  woork  which  he  hath  done. 
 
 5  Hee  ftablifhed  a  couenant  in  Iacob,and  fet  a  lawe  in  Ifrael,  for  hce 
 hath  comaunded  our  fathers,  that  they  f  hold  make  the  fame  kno- 
 wen  to  their  children. 
 
 6  That  their  pofteritie  maie  knoy  v  it,and  that  the  children  which  f  hal 
 be  borne  of  them  may  rife  vp  and  fhew  it  vnto  their  children.
