THE ARGVMENT OF THE PROVERBES
The first booke called Prouerbes, that is, common & vsual pithie
sentences, shorte in wordes, ample in sense; and Parables, signifying
likenes or similitudes, wherby more important thinges are vnderstood then
expressed; instructeth and exhorteth new beginners, to lerne, and practise
al sortes of vertues, the only right way to true wisdome and eternal happines. note
It may be diuided into foure partes. note In the first nine chapters the auctor interposing
certaine general preceptes, produceth wisdom her selfe inuiting
al men to seeke her, for the spiritual profite, they shal therby enioy. note From
thence to the 25. chap. he geueth sundrie more particular precepts, as wel for
embracing vertues, as shunning of vices. In the next fiue chapters, more like
precepts of the same auctor, are added by the care of King Ezechias. In the
two last chapters, either an other Auctor, or rather the same vnder an other
title, commendeth to al men certaine most excellent precepts, receiued of his
mother; wherto he adioyneth the praise of a right wise woman: prophetically
the Catholique Church.09Q0277
