The Epistle Dedicatory
To the Right Honourable Thomas Earl of Pembroke and Montgomery,
Baron Herbert of Cardiff, Lord Ross Of Kendal, Par, Fitzhugh,Marmion, St. Quintn, and Shurland; Lord President of his Majesty’s most Honourable Privy-Council; and Lord Lieutenant of the County of Wilts, and of South Wales.
MY LORD,
This treatise, which is grown up under your Lordship’s eye, and has ventured into the world by your order, does now, by a natural kind of right, come to your Lordship for that protection which you several years since promised it. ’Tis not that I think any name, how great soever, set at the beginning of a book, will be able to cover the faults are to be found in it. Things in print must stand and fall by their own worth, or the reader’s fancy. But there being nothing more to be desired for truth than a fair unprejudiced hearing, nobody is more likely to procure me that, than your Lordship, who are allowed to have got so intimate an acquaintance with her, in her more retired recesses.

Truth scarce ever yet carried it by vote anywhere at its first appearance: new opinions are always suspected, and usually opposed, without any other reason, but because they are not already common. But truth, like gold, is not the less so, for being newly brought out of the mine. ’Tis trial and examination must give it price, and not any antique fashion: and though it be not yet current by the public stamp; yet it may, for all that, be as old as nature,and is certainly not the less genuine. Your Lordship can give great and convincing instances of this, whenever you please to oblige the public with some of those large and comprehensive discoveries you have made, of truths, hitherto unknown, unless to some few,to whom your Lordship has been pleased not wholly to conceal them. This alone were a sufficient reason, were there no other,why I should dedicate
