Preface

1 A poore man now arrived at the Land of Promise

2 The multitudes of people covered the beautie of the fields

3 He sate among graue, learned and reuerend men

4 Faire and softly goeth far

5 I am for the medium in all things

6 The danger never dreamt of, that is the danger

7 O lett me bosome thee, lett me preserve thee next to my heart

8 We have twice and thrice so much scope for oure earthlie peregrination …

9 When we do luxuriate and grow riotous in the gallantnesse of this world

10 True Religion is in no way a gargalisme only

11 The grace of the fashion of it

12 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut vp his tender mercies?
