"In this fift Booke is set foorth the rape of Leucippe by Cherea: the love of Melite towards Clitiphon: their sayling to Ephesus: After it sheweth how Sosthenes the steward of Melite, bought Leucippe of a Merchant which had redeemed her from Pyrates: how shee under the name of Lacena, unknown of Clitiphon, perceiveth his love to Melite: The returning home of Thersander Melites husband, whom she long since had thought to have perished in shipwracke."
