<HEAD><HI>THE <HI>Sad E&s;tate</HI> OF THE KINGDOM, Being an account of the fir&s;t years charge of our Reformation.</HI></HEAD>
<P>It is an old Cu&s;tom in <HI>England</HI> among <HI>Trade&s;men,</HI> to Ca&s;t up their Books at <HI>Chri&s;tmas:</HI> After their example I have thought fit to draw up the la&s;t years Account of the Kingdom, by way of <HI>Debtor</HI> and <HI>Creditor,</HI> &s;o plainly, that he that runs may read it. They that love <HI>England</HI> I am &s;ure cannot like it, but for that rea&s;on they &s;hould help to mend it. When they know the <HI>Di&s;ea&s;e,</HI> it will not be hard to find out the <HI>Cure.</HI> If our mi&s;erys do not mend our Hearts, I wi&s;h, at lea&s;t, they may our &V;nder&s;tandings.</P>
