THE TRAVEILER of Ierome Turler deuided into two Bookes The first conteining a notable discourse of the maner and order of traueiling ouersea or into straunge and forrein Countreys The second comprehending an excellent description of the most delicious Realme of Naples in Italy A woorke very pleasaunt for all persons to reade and right profitable and necessarie vnto all such as are minded to Traueyll ¶ Imprinted at London by William How for Abraham Veale 1575. To the Right honourable and renowmed Barons the Lord George Hugh and Vitus brethren of the auncient house of the Schonburges Lordes of Glaucha and Waldenburge Ierome Turler sendeth gréeting RYght honorable and renoumed Barons it is nobly written by Isocrates that children oughte too keepe their fathers Friends as diligētly as they woulde their owne inheritance And your father of worthy memorie loued my father deerely hee liued togither with your Grandfather many yeeres in the Courte of Duke George the noble Duke of Saxonie and he was borne in the dayes of your Greatgrandfather of Austine Turler his father who was then Consull of Lesnick which towne is vnder your inrisdiction at this day and whereof my Vncle is nowe at this present Consull one whom yee knowe ryghtwell Wherefore I haue often deuised with my self by what meanes I might likewise continue this frendship or rather testefie my dutie towards you your familie and if it could bee how to enlarge the same but hetherto I coulde finde no good opportunitie for that yee were of so smal yeeres that wanted rather instruction in discretion and good manners then to bee occupied in debating of graue matters and also yee had such instructers and schoolemaisters that if yee followed their documentes there should redownd great honour to your selues and great commoditie to your subiectes Albeit then it be so that ye haue no neede of myne admoniciō either to the studie of vertue godlinesse or towards the attaining of good artes learning yet the significatiō of a mans dutie is wont to be acceptable to good natures such especially such as are of Nobilitie and descended of the greatest parentage Thus staying my self vpō this groūd I sēd vnto ye this booke which I haue written in the behalf of such as are desierous to traueill and to see forreine Cuntries specially of students For since Experience is the greatest parte of humane wisedome and the same is increased by traueil I suppose there is no man will deney but that a mā may become the wiser by traueiling How beit if in any thing surely in this most diligent circumspection is very requisite by reason of the daungers that offer themselues vnto traueilers and the weakenesse of mans iudgment which vnlesse it be then confirmed by vse experience and holpen by the counsel of others it will soone be brought into errour Here is moreouer to be added that the youth and flourishing yeeres are moste commonly employd in traueill which of their owne course and condicion are inclined vnto vice and much more ernestly imbrace the same if it be entised thereto which manica time and often chaunceth in traueyling wherfore mee thinkes they do a good deede and well deserue of al mē that gyue preceptes of traueyling Which thing althoughe I perceyue that some haue doone yet haue they doone it heere and there in sundrie Bookes and not in any one certeine place And being a necessarie thing to haue all such matter in a readinesse as may well and profitably be said of one thing I haue therefore handled that argument according to the definitiue Methode as they speake in the schooles and haue comprehended also as I iudge in one Booke whatsoeuer is necessarie for any to know concerning the due taking in hand of traueill and the prosperous perfourming of the same I haue also adioyned vnto this discourse another booke wherin I haue applied those preceptes of mine vnto such things as seemed vnto me worthy the seing and obseruing in the Realme of Naples which beeinge none other thing then an example of such documentes as wee haue set down in the first Booke I haue therefore made the title vnto all the whole writing Of Traueill and of the Realme of Naples because no man shall thinke that I haue coupled contrary thinges togither For although in deede it bee one thing to intreate of the Realme of Naples and another thing to giue preceptes vnto such as meane to traueill yet since traueiling consisteth of viewing diligent consideratiō of things and preceptes are lightned by examples there is no iust impediment to the contrarie but that I maye ioyne these twaine togither And as I haue also admonished in the booke I trust that this my labour will bee the more acceptable vnto some for the same cause For if they shall want preceptes they shall finde them heere in a readinesse and if they do require an example agreeable to preceptes they haue heere suche a one beefore their eyes which may both instruct their mindes and also inflame them vnto the knowledge of most bewtifull sightes and Antiquitie Receiue in good parte Right honorable and renoumed Barons this simple gifte from mee and therin my dutie and seruice towardes ye and your familie Which if it shall please you to do I wil do min indeuor to omit nothing which I may thinke to tende vnto the commendation and ornament of your house and that my good will may be knowen vnto you hereafter by some traueill of more graue argument Fare yee well The Contentes of the Chapters
