WHen I consyderid with my selfe the lobours & paynes that haue bine taken of dyuers builders in Chrystes churche ( my gracyous Lady and mistris ) I thought my selfe not borne into the earth , to be a loker on the bildinge , or to iland gapyng at other menes dylygence , but to put to my helpyng hand , for feare lest that I shulde be rewardyd emong the Idel persons , or haue that smal talent taken from me , that my master gaue me , for not putting it to the chaunge banke . I haue now but begon , as it were the squaring out of a greate stone & do offer vp vnto your grace the begynnyng of my work , and If I shal perceiue that my symple doyngs , shall be well acceptid , of your grace ( as the grosse doing of the same may be an occasion to the contrary ) then shal I gladlye go on or procede in my doynge , at the least wyse exersise , shal I doubt not but make eueri part better than the other at their forth commyng ▪ My mynd is that I wold haue my contrey people able in a smale some to syng the hole contents of the byble , & where as in tymes past the musicians or mynstrells , wer wont to syng fained myracles , saints liues , & Robin hode , in stede thereof to sing , vndoutyd truthes , canonycall scryptures , and Gods doynges ● haue also begon the same order that I intend to kepe as where a boke hath thyrtye , forty , or fythtye chapters , to deuyd it into fyttes , or partes , that it shall not be to tedyous to the reader , synger , or hearer , to haue the boke in practys . Also thys my doyngs I trust shall cause the scrypturs , to be often read , as the man that hearyth a parte of a story in the scryptures , & doth not knowe the hole : thys may moue the hole to be red , And to those that be well sene in the holye wrytyngs , this shall kepe them in remembrance of those good things that they haue lernid The abrygement of Gods acts or statutes I do call it because it is a summe or short rehersal of thinges done at large in the Byble booke , whych may be called the kyng of al kinges actes , desyrynge your grace to take it in good worth and to accepte my good wyll as I truste your grace wyll .
