Exon. Aprill 8. 1643.

HAving lately seene a Pamphlet , mis-called a Sermon , and fathered upon my name , under this Title , [ A Sermon preached in Exon , before the Deputy Livetenants , Captaines , &c. in the County of Devon , by John Bond , Minister of the word of God in the City of Exon ] The text being , Prov. 25. v. 5. and perusing those broken notes uppon it , contained in some 35 pages . I thought it my duty ( so soone as I could recover my selfe from astonishment at the injurious boldnesse of the publisher , T. B. ) to tell the world , that not onely my selfe , but , which is farre more neere me , the very Cause , Text , and Reader , are abused in that bastard-copy . I may not , for the matters sake , be forced to hatch a Cuckco's egges , or to father anothers bratt , especially when t is a monster .

And therefore mine intreaty to the Reader of these lines is this , that for his owne sake as well as mine , he would save the labour of reading those shreds , or at least the charges of buying them ; and if he will needs see something of mine upon that Text , let him but hold-in his purse , and lay-out a little patience in staying a few weekes ( perhaps dayes ) untill I can finish my beginnings upon that Scripture , and then hee may have the Commodity at first hand , perhaps cheaper and sweeter then it can come from such regrating , and soyling Hucksters . Meane while , pray for him that is ,
