Proverbes or adagies with newe addicions gathered out of the Chiliades of Erasmus
by
Richard Taverner
The prologe of the authour
Forasmoche as I thynke it wol be no les pleasaunte then profitable unto you (good readers) to heare some of the most nette & handsome prouerbes which the incomparable lerned man Erasmus Roterodam hath in his boke of Chiliades gathered to gether out of the moste approued authors: although it be a mater of great importaunce to handle them in their kynde, and a prouince farr surmountying the sklender capacitie of my wytte: yet for your sakes and for the loue I beare to the furtheraunce & adourment of my native countrey, I wyll not stycke after myne accustomed maner, whiche is rudiori ac crassiori minerva, to make here a brefe collection of some of them. If ye shall lyke my studie and industrie taken in thys behalfe, I wolbe glad: If not, yet my honeste harte is not to be blamed. Fare ye well.
