namely_o among_o the_o rest_n the_o godly_a and_o learned_a treatise_n call_v the_o lamentation_n of_o a_o sinner_n write_v long_o since_o by_o the_o virtuous_a lady_n queen_n katherine_n which_o for_o the_o excellency_n thereof_o be_v first_o publish_v in_o print_n by_o sir_n william_n cicill_n now_o the_o right_n honourable_a lord_n treasurer_n of_o england_n as_o by_o his_o very_a godly_a

queen_n of_o navarre_n and_o after_o very_o exact_o and_o faithful_o translate_v by_o our_o mostgratious_a sovereign_n and_o learned_a lady_n queen_n elizabeth_n who_o among_o many_o queen_n virgin_n and_o woman_n through_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n have_v do_v very_o virtuous_o and_o get_v thereby_o great_a renoun_n and_o thereupon_o consider_v with_o myself_o what_o great_a profit_n and_o

to_o their_o former_a good_a and_o godly_a use_n in_o the_o church_n i_o think_v i_o can_v not_o better_o spend_v my_o time_n nor_o employ_v my_o talon_n either_o for_o the_o renoun_n of_o such_o

which_o when_o after_o a_o sort_n i_o have_v do_v and_o perceive_v that_o there_o want_v per_fw-mi many_o thing_n to_o make_v the_o same_o a_o absolute_a and_o perfect_a book_n for_o the_o simple_a sort_n of_o woman_n according_a to_o my_o mind_n to_o satisfy_v myself_o further_o in_o this_o my_o purpose_a collection_n i_o fall_v to_o the_o peruse_n of_o the_o holy_a bible_n and_o many_o other_o good_a book_n as_o well_o of_o prayer_n as_o of_o other_o divine_a matter_n such_o as_o from_o time_n to_o tune_n have_v be_v pen_v by_o diverse_a godly_a learned_a man_n out_o of_o the_o which_o
