The Stationer to the Reader.

Reader.

I Have with much importunity after many denialls obtained a perfect Catalogue of all Printed Books, written by William Prynne of Lincolnes-Inne, Esquire; and here pub­lished it, not out of any vain glorious Ostentation of the Authors indefatigable industry, and good service to this Church and Common-wealth, but princi­pally for these two Reasons.

First, To free the Author from those Spurious Im­postures which have been injuriously fathered on him by Walker the Ironmonger, and others, to his dishonor, and the Readers delusion.

Secondly, To prevent all Imperfect Catalogues, (in­tended for the Presse without his privity) and to dis­cover what Copies of his have been published by Erronious Manuscripts, varying from the Originall, without his knowledge, (by some who aymed more at their own private benefit, then the publike) his onely end in compiling all these ensuing Treatises, was Gods glory, the publike good of our Church and State, not any private gain (he freely giving all his Coppies to those who Printed them, and never tak­ing penny for any of them:) let it be thine and thy souls good, onely in perusing them. So wisheth his Stationer,

Michael Sparke, Senior.
