If thou art a Saint, read with delight; but if thou art an Enemy to True Godli∣ness, read and tremble: For the happy estate of the one, and the miserable conditi∣on of the other, is here set out before your eyes. In this Treatise, you may see the lit∣tle cause the one has to mourn in the worst of Times, and the other to rejoyce what times soever they live in. I hope none will be offended, because True Godliness is here presented in an Allegory, sith the Holy Scriptures abound with them, and so fully justifie our practce herein: However, 'tis now exposed to publick view, and since it hath its Birth in such a juncture as this, I expect it will meet with different entertainment; but whatsoever censures it passeth under, yet if but one soul reaps real benefit by it, it will requite me for my pains: I can say it hath been sweet to me in writing, God grant it may prove so to thee in reading, and I shall say no more, but shall leave it to the Bles∣sing of Jehovah, in whom I still remain through infinite Grace.
