1632. In this translation, it was attempted to collect out of
sundry authors the philosophical sense of these fables of Ovid, if
they may be called his, when most of them are more antient than any
extant author, or perhaps them letters themselves; before which, as
they expressed their conceptions in hieroglyphics, so did they
their philosophy and dimity under fables and parables, a way not
untrod by the sacred penmen, as by the prudent lawgivers in their
reducing of the Old World to civility, leaving behind a deeper
impression than can be made by the precepts of philosophy. Due to
the age and scarcity of the original we reproduced, some pages may
be spotty, faded or difficult to read. Written in Old English.
