PREFACE T<>THE READER.
X HIS small volume of Tales and Stories is
collected forth, diversion and infirDakin,&
may serve to show thee what Subtle devices
an 1 malicious accusations were formerly laid
to attain to grandeur, and gratify malicious
and ambitious persons. , a/ ; ;
Here you may observe, that the intent of
this small book (written in an allegorical and
pleasant method) is to promote fiocerity and
fidelity, and todi/cotintenance treachery and
falsehood. If you are inclined to virtue,
here are precedents to direct you ; if to inno
cence, here are rules to inftrud you ; and if
you would avoid vice, here are examples
which fer before you the fcahdal and misery
which attend a vicious life. In 1, word, you
may here learn to despise vanity, to prize in
nocence, to expeft death, to escape hell, and
to obtain heaven.
You will find the biftorieal part interspers
ed with curious lessons to please the fancy,
delight the mind, fkarpen tbe wit, and ilium;
inate the understanding. The moral part,
inftruds the mind in the knowledge and pre
cepts of virtue, as the historical delights the
fancy and improves the judgment.
This small bock likewise, by the diverting
flories therein, encourages and allures chil
dren and youth to learn to read ; for which
end it is written in an intelligible Style.
