Walthoe in Vine Court Middle-Temple adjoyning to the Cloisters MDCXCIII To the much Honoured EDWARD SAYER Of the Middle-Temple Esq SIR A Dedication from its frequent usage is now grown as it were so absolutely necessary that a Book without One may be said to be much in the same Circumstances as a Child without a Parent to own it or at least a Godfather to answer for it A Prescription for it may be pleaded beyond the Aera of Printing even from the first use of Letters and the very Infancy of Learning This may Warrant it in general but my own many Obligations exact this publick way in particular of expressing my grateful acknowledgments to you which I must confess nevertheless are at best but a very unsuitable and indifferent Retribution I shall say little here in relation to this Alien which I have ventur'd to Naturalize nor of you whom I have chose to Patronize it I am sensible a true Gentleman bates a nauseous piece of Flattery and would not much care for a Recital even of those modest Encomium's he is known to deserve If he may merit your Esteem and the Book 's Commendations may balance its Errors it will be a sufficient Recompence and Satisfaction to the Translator Such as it is I have ventur'd to submit it to Censure requesting your Protection and Patronage which favour will strictly engage me to be in the highest regard Honoured Sir Your most Obliged and most Humble Servant C. B. Feb. 6. 169● THE PREFACE MEeting sometime since with this Book in Latin I thought it well worth my Money did it but answer its Title Page and finding my self upon the Perusal not much disappointed I resolved to turn it into English for the benefit of such as might not perhaps understand the Latin and yet be no less curious than my self to be Inform'd of the Matters contained therein Since by being Instructed in the Genealogies the Matches the Increments and the Decrements of all the Families in Europe together with the many Pretences that arise from thence which is chiefly the Subject of the ensuing Discourse they will in all probability be the better enabled to judge of the different Interests which have engaged almost all the Princes of Europe in a War the Event whereof so much concerns this Nation and consequently is the general Topick of Discourse I shall not here pretend to give an Account of the many Advantages which may be drawn from the Knowledge of History and how necessary a Qualification 't is for a Gentleman since to say all One ought on that subject would swell this Preface to a Bulk disproportionate to the Treatise it self which pretends to no more than a Compendium Yet since 't is probable the Reader would gladly know somewhat of the Author thereof the best account that can be given of him is from Himself and Book In order to which he lets you know in his Epistle Dedicatory That he is a Professor in the University at Franckfort and that the Book was the first Fruits of his Office It having been read as Lectures or a Compendious Introduction to the Genealogy and History of the present Princes of Europe for the benefit of the Students there and since Printed to be rendred more publickly useful The Method he has taken herein is Easie and Plain the Genealogical Observations are exact and the Historical as full of Matter as the nature of his design would bear Not but that having laboured in a Soyl capable of mighty Improvements as to the last if this first Impression find that kind Reception as may be expected it may incourage the Translator or some Other to resume the Work and by engrafting on his Stock bring the Growth to a greater Perfection an Essay whereof you already have in the English House In the mean time the Book as it now stands is of good Use and may merit a favourable Reception as well from the most Learned as from the Ignorant For altho' the former may be supposed to be already acquainted with what is contained herein yet it will always serve them as a Summary or Common Place And tho' the latter will not be rendered thorough-paced Historians hereby yet will it give them a general Insight into the modern Story of Europe together with a curiosity of being farther Informed There is one thing more I thought fit to acquaint the Reader withal which is That in the Latin Copy amongst King James the Second's Children there is one mentioned and called The Prince of Wales but the late Licenser Mr. Bohun having expunged Him the Translator could not by the Warrant of the Latin Original presume to insert Him A Series of the several Families contained in this BOOK CHAP I.
