A86361 A New-Years-gift for women. Being a true looking-glass which they seldome have in their own closets, where (for the most part) are none but flattering ones: but hereby, and herein, they may truly, plainly, and directly, see their duties, both towards God, and their own husbands. With an epistle dedicatory, directed to the feminine gender (never done before) nor the like extant in no printed book. However, many have dedicated to one or two vertuous ladies, upon some good reasons moving the author thereunto. But never any (as this is) to the whole sex of women, of what rank or quality soever they be. Hill, William, 1619-1667. 1660 (1660) Wing H2035; Thomason E2114_1; ESTC R212662 17,927 71

and_o thus_o he_o be_v comfort_v after_o his_o mother_n death_n next_o you_o may_v take_v notice_n of_o her_o singular_a wisdom_n for_o she_o love_v jacob_n her_o son_n better_a than_o his_o brother_n
