(=A=) CUPIDS | REVENGE. |(***)| As it hath beene divers times Acted by | the Children of her Majesties | Revels. ¶ By _John Fletcher_. | _LONDON |_ Printed by _Thomas Creede_ for _Josias Harison_, and are to bee solde at the _Golden Anker_ in | _Pater-Noster-Row._ 1615. The _Printer_ to the _Reader_. _It is a custome used by some Writers in this Age to Dedicate their Playes to worthy persons, as well as their other works; and there is reason for it, because they are the best Minervaes of their braine, and expresse more puritie of conceit in the ingenious circle of an Act or Scæne, then is to be found in the vast circumference of larger Volumnes; and therefore worthy an answerable Mecænas, to honour and bee honoured by them. But not [h]aving any such Epistle from the Authour (in regard I am not acquainted with him) I have made bolde my_ _selfe, without his consent to dedicate this Play to the Juditious in generall, of what degree soever; not insinuating herein with any, be they never so great, that want judgement, for to them it belongs not, though they pay for it, more then in this respect, that like_ Æsops _Cocke, having met with a precious Stone by accident, they knew not the true use thereof, but had rather have a Barlie-corne to their humour, then a perfect Diamond. But leaving them to their ignorance_, I _once againe dedicate this Booke to the Juditious, some whereof_ I _have heard commend it to be excellent, who, because they saw it Acted, and knew what they spake, are the better to be beleeved: and for my part I censure it thus, That_ I _never red a better_.
