A89239	Naked truth, or, A plain discovery of the intrigues of amorous fops and humours of several other whimsical persons in a pleasant and profitable dialogue between a precious saint-like sister called Terpole and Mimologos, a scoffing buffoon / written by Don Francisco Baltheo de Montalvan, and faithfully translated out of the original by W.H., M.D.	Montalvan, Francisco Baltheo de.; W.
