HESE FABLES were finished

Tby Mr GAY, and intended for

the Prefs a fhort Time before his Death; when they were left, with his other Papers, to the Care of his noble Friend and Patron, the DUKE of QUEENSBERRY: His Grace has accordingly permitted them to the Prefs, and they are here printed from the Originals in the Author's own Hand-writing. We hope they will please equally with his former Fables, though mostly on Subjects of a graver and more political Turn: They will certainly fhew him to have been (what he esteemed the best Character) a Man of a truly honeft Heart, and a fincere Lover of his Country.
