To the Reader.
Even as in times past, all men, which were honestly bent to the promoting of virtue and learning, found means, that the works of worthy orators, of famous and renowned Philosophers, should be by the, benefit of publishing, redeemed from the tyranny of oblivion, to the great and high profit of countries, of common wealths, of empires, and of assemblies of men: likewise ought we to fetch our president from those men, and suffer no worthy monument to perish, whereby any good may grow, either to the more godly administration of politik and civil affairs, or else to the better establishing of christian judgment. Numa Pompilius (who was inagured & created king of the Romans next after Romulus) was far more careful & busier in grounding of Idolatrous religion (as upon rites, ceremonies, sacrifices and superstitions) then we are in promoting of christian religion to the advancement of the glory due to the omnipotent majesty of God him self, who hath revealed and uttered his word unto us by his Prophets, and last of all by his only begotten Son Jesus Christ
