Lively setting forth, the feavers, the dangers, and the jealousies of lovers; and the labyrinths and wildernesses of fears and hopes through which they dayly passe.

Codrington, Robert, 1601-1665.; Cervantes Saavedra, Miguel de, 1547-1616, attributed name. 1651 (1651) Wing C1781; Thomason E647_1; ESTC R3681 201,675 280
