"Naworth" is an anagram of Wharton.
This edition, the London original (cf. Madan 1540), should not be confused with Wing B3728, an edition containing sarcastic marginal notes by George Wharton, whom Booker's work attacks.
Annotation on Thomason copy: the 4 in the imprint date is crossed out and altered to 1643; "written by Mr John Booker"; "January 25: 1643".
