To the right vvorship∣full, and his singuler good freend, Maister William Wrathe, Warden of the Worshipfull Company of the Mercers, W. Auerel wisheth health of body, happinesse of soule, and continuall prosperitie, both in this life, and in the life to come.

To the freendlie and courteous Reader.

❧ A Dyall for daintie Darlinges, that are rockt in the Cradle of Securitie.

¶ A notable and excellent example of Gods iudge∣ments, in his most seuere punishment, of the rare and straunge pride, of a Captaines wife of Constantinople.

❧ The punishment of disobedi∣ence, shewed vppon an obstinate and stubborne Sonne, who most miserablie and vnnaturallie, withheld from his Parentes, the needfull noutishmentes, of theyr necessarie sustenaunce. A notable spectacle for euerie disobedient childe, to see therein the plagues of God, vpon vnnaturall chyldren, that withdrawe from theyr aged Parentes, the duetie and loue that they ought to showe.

❧ The rare vertue of a Maiden, and the singular discrecion of a young man, the one in her good and godlie gouernment, the other in his wise and prudent choise of his Wife. An excellent example to all Maidens, how they should exercise their golden tyme: and a perfect platforme to young men, not to runne rashlie to the bayte of theyr pleasures, least they be caught in the hooke of follie, to their owne harme and hinderaunce.
