And not alone shall pleasure thee awayte,
As thou perusest what I now present;
Here thou shalt have fit matter for each state,
If thou consider what hereby is ment.
Then thinke thy time herein not idly spent.
Ponder with iudgement what thou read'st at leysure,
So may thy profit equalize thy pleasure.
