The new Odyssey by the Spanish Homer: being the travels of the Christian hero, Ulysses Desiderius Pius, throughout the universe, to the palace of that sovereign princess styled the science of salvation. Contained in nineteen chapters, rhapsodies or visions, To be read a Chapter every Night, between Twelftn-Day and Candlemas-Day, as so many most diverting and instructive Christmas Nights Entertainments. The whole making a fine Spiritual Romance; or, rather a Sublime Allegorical Poem. Being the valuable work of the learned and pious Bishop of Osma (sirnamed, by the late Marquis of Fenelon, Archbishop of Cambray, the Divine) Don John de Palafox & Mendoza, Marquis of Hariza, in the Kingdom of Arragon. Translated into most languages of Europe, applauded universally through many Editions; and vastly recommended, as an inimitable Master-Piece of that fine Visionary and Allegorical Manner of Writing, by the late Archbishop of Cambray, in his Original Preface to his Excellent Books of Telemachus.
