The text is Jer 8:22. The work is divided into two lectures preceded by a two page dedication "to the right worshipfull Sir Iohn Cleypoole Knight". This appears to be John Claypole of Northborough, Northamptonshire, married to Mary Angell and the father (1625) of Lord John Claypole who married Cromwell's daughter Elizabeth.
