a_o warn_v to_o take_v heed_n of_o fowler_n psalter_n give_v by_o th._n samson_n anchora_fw-la spei_fw-la imprint_v at_o london_n by_o thomas_n vautrollier_n for_o george_n bishop_n 1578._o to_o my_o very_a godly_a love_n friend_n and_o brother_n m._n robert_n ask_v goldsmith_n and_o one_o of_o the_o bridgemaister_n of_o the_o city_n of_o london_n you_o do_v send_v of_o late_a unto_o i_o at_o one_o time_n as_o you_o know_v two_o book_n which_o the_o lovanistes_n have_v send_v into_o england_n the_o one_o be_v a_o primer_n the_o other_o a_o psalter_n the_o primer_n be_v in_o latin_a and_o be_v as_o i_o think_v but_o a_o new_a burnish_n of_o their_o old_a popish_a pelf_n i_o do_v not_o peruse_v it_o neither_o do_v i_o intend_v to_o bestow_v any_o labour_n thereabout_o for_o many_o year_n be_v pass_v since_o i_o do_v leave_v my_o primer_n neither_o have_v i_o any_o pleasure_n now_o to_o look_v upon_o those_o puddle_n of_o popery_n in_o which_o i_o be_v plunge_v in_o the_o day_n of_o my_o youth_n and_o ignorance_n 25._o i_o do_v rather_o with_o the_o psalmist_n humble_o pray_v the_o lord_n not_o to_o remember_v the_o fault_n and_o ignorance_n of_o my_o youth_n but_o according_a to_o his_o own_o kindness_n and_o for_o his_o goodness_n sake_n to_o forgive_v i_o it_o be_v beside_o all_o this_o now_o become_v a_o tickle_a piece_n of_o work_n m._n robert_n to_o meddle_v with_o primer_n will_v you_o know_v why_o the_o old_a primer_n be_v of_o late_a great_o disgrace_v by_o pope_n pius_n v_o for_o he_o say_v that_o they_o be_v fill_v with_o superstitious_a error_n and_o say_v that_o many_o forge_a prayer_n be_v thrust_v into_o they_o under_o false_a and_o feign_a name_n of_o saint_n he_o call_v also_o all_o the_o pardon_n grant_v in_o they_o and_o print_v in_o their_o rubrike_n into_o doubt_n thus_o do_v this_o pope_n dash_n the_o devotion_n of_o papist_n therefore_o let_v old_a papist_n look_v well_o what_o primer_n they_o use_v and_o take_v heed_n which_o of_o they_o they_o do_v trust_v lest_o they_o do_v not_o only_o lose_v their_o labour_n but_o fall_v into_o the_o displeasure_n of_o the_o pope_n and_o by_o the_o do_n of_o late_a pope_n they_o may_v see_v how_o unsavoury_a and_o unsafe_a the_o do_n of_o former_a pope_n be_v for_o that_o which_o one_o allow_v a_o other_o disallow_v one_o promise_v a_o other_o deny_v therefore_o i_o think_v good_a now_o to_o leave_v both_o they_o &_o their_o primer_n and_o because_o the_o psalter_n seem_v to_o be_v some_o strange_a novelty_n with_o which_o the_o author_n think_v to_o make_v some_o fresh_a melody_n i_o do_v take_v this_o their_o psalter_n into_o my_o hand_n i_o do_v but_o touch_v the_o string_n thereof_o to_o taste_v what_o sound_n it_o do_v give_v but_o i_o do_v not_o find_v that_o in_o it_o which_o the_o name_n seem_v to_o promise_v rather_o i_o find_v in_o it_o unsavoury_a discord_n string_n false_a and_o out_o of_o tune_n &_o other_o such_o jar_n as_o by_o peruse_v this_o little_a pamphlet_n you_o may_v perceive_v which_o i_o do_v not_o send_v to_o you_o my_o good_a brother_n as_o though_o i_o think_v that_o you_o either_o delight_v in_o such_o
