W. I find that in it which is both Ridiculous and Barbarous and Ignorant worse than a young Shollar who speaks not proper English for that is the properest English the Bible is translated into which is Thou to One and You to Many Instance in thy Preface to the Reader where thou speaks of bald latine where thou sayes you but for you I had died and in latine its te and in the same Page thou sayes I am glad that you are well and in the latine its tu now whether is not this bald English as thou calls bald latine art thou fit to be a Teacher when thou translates you when thou should thee and thou dost thou not deserve the Rod here and art thou not ashamed to publish such a thing abroad a fool goes on in this Road wilt thou call this Elegancy is not this thy Elegancy and Teaching contrary to Scripture and the Accidence come to it again amas thou lovest amatis ye or you love come read W.

they say Dominatio vestra who are degenerated from the true Latine Accidence Grammar and Bible both Something written concerning Charles Hools translating of some School-Books he writes himself Master of Arts wherein he sayes the propriety of both languages is kept that children by the help of their Mothers tongue may the more easily learn to discourse in good Latine among themselves and first to that book called Confabulatiunculae Puerilis In the first page of his book he sayes Ad multos loquimur Pluraliter and he Englishes it thus We speak to many in the Plural Number and yet in his next sentence he uses the word you when he speaks to one as Habeo tibi gratiam which he Englishes I thank you when the Accidence and Grammars and Dictionaries and Latine Bibles doth not put tibi for you but tibi for thee and vobis for you and in this his book wherein he sayes the propriety of both Languages are kept but he hath lost it for he himself uses you to one in a manner throughout his whole book as you for thou as Salve in God save you Et tu And you too and Quid tu ais What do you say Sir Dixisti te velle aufugere in English as he says You said you would runn away as when he speaks to more than one he uses the word you to them also Instance in his 33. page of that book when he sayes Illico dimittam omnes vos in Englishes as he says I will presently dismiss you all here is vos you see and then in the next words when he speaks but to one Tu mihi responde Do you answer me here he keeps you still he puts you to tu which is thou and you to vos which is you also like a mad-man and so in his translation he makes no distinction when he speaks to one and when he speaks to more than one but you to one and you to many and yet he says in his Title page the propriety of both Languages is kept and this Book he Dedicates to one Ioseph and Humphry Primate Citizens of London And the same order he keeps in his Translation of that Book called Corderius which he directs to one Henry Hampson Citizen of London and he sayes the propriety of both languages is kept and yet he keeps to you when one is spoken to Page the 172. Tu vero What did you and 173. page Fuisti ne memor promissi tui which he Englishes Have you been mindful of your promise he says not thou and thy which is the propriety of the English Tongue when one is spoken to Page 250. Tu jure id poterds he Englishes it thus You might have done that at your one pleasure and so here again he puts you for tu thou Page 264. Sunt ne tibi testes Have you any witnesses here is you again for tibi and Abi sede loco tuo Get you gone and sit in your place and so he proceeds in that book and speaks you when he should thou and uses you when he speaks to one as well as when he speaks to more then one And in that Book he hath Translated which is called Sententiae Pueriles sentences for children and he Latines it and Englishes it to them and he Englishes and Latines it to us thus Ne sis lingua futili Be not a blab of your tongue so he Englishes to us your when it should be thy it s not Ne sitis Be not you but its Ne sis Be not thou Children by this means of teaching will neither know true English nor true Latine Again he Englishes it to us in that book thus Commit your selves to Christ that you fall not into sin the Latine out of which he Englishes these words is Commendabis te Christ one impingas in peccatum so he hath put yourself for thyself and you for thou so is this a good translator that translates you for tu which is thou and your for te which is thee or thy in that place Read on School-boyes and you may see up and down in his book he does English and translate in this manner as though the man were not in his senses more like to distract children then teach them true English or Latine either And in his book called an easy entrance into the Latine tongue therein he teacheth Singular and Plural thou to one and you to more than one yet in his translating of Latine into English he writes contradictory setting you for thou the second person Plural for the second Singular and doth not this deserve the whip boyes and would not he have whipt you for such doings for the proof of it take two or three examples out of the afore-mentioned book of his in page 440 he translates as followeth for Cede de meo loco he Englishes thus Get you out of my place putting there the word you for thou for cedite or ceditote is depart you or ye and cede is depart thou or thee so also for Quid est tibi nomen he Englishes thus What is your name which being rightly translated is What is thy name so there also putting the word your for thee and Quid tu ais he Englishes What say you which is properly What sayest thou so putting the Singular in the Plurals place which is non-sence so again for Cur non scribis he Englishes Why do you not write for Why dost thou not write and also for Quot annos natus es he Englishes How old are you putting the word you for thou and in this stile and after such like manner he goes through his book he puts you in the place of thee and thou as tu you for vos you as in his English translations it doth appear teaching one way and translating contrary to it which is not a proper way of translating nor C. H. is not a fit man to translate nor to teach Richard Bernard in his English Terrence so called also makes use of the same Irregular way of translating and so renders himself deserving a whip for translating the word you for thou You to one when it s properly spoken to more than one as for example in his Terrence page 12. in his Formulae loquendae he writes thus Paucis te volo I would speak a word or two with you putting the word you for thou or thee for te there doth not signify with you but in the Singular thee so also in the same page thus for Rem omnem a principio audies he Englishes You shall hear c. now audies is not you shall hear but thou shalt hear so again for Quid est quod me velis he Englisheth What would you with me putting you for thou and for Mihi exorandus es I must intreat you putting you for thou for the word es is not to be understood you are but thou art so R. W. thou art not a fit man to translate to us Iohn Clarke in his Book called

tuus and tua and tuum And this is his common practice throughout his Book onely a few Examples I have drawn forth of his Book that others may see his Confusion and avoid it In page 1. Tuam virtutem c. He Englisheth it to us thus That your vertue in stead of thy vertue for vestram virtutem is your vertue and tuam virtutem is thy vertue and in the same page he sayes Teque nec animi nec corporis laboribus defatigari and he Englishes and sayes And that neither with travel of minde or body ye are wearied Here Mark he puts ye which is plural for te which is thou or thee singular In page 3. Vt tu Scribis as ye write when ut vos scribitis is as ye write and ut tu Scribis is as thou writest So this is not an easie nor a familiar Construction that makes no distinction betwixt singular and plural that sayes ye to one and you to more than one as you may see in the 8th page where Cicero writes to his Family and sayes Et vos meipsum that is Both you and me sayes T. W. and in the ninth page Nihil ego te accusavi I blamed ye no whit Mark and see what a Construction is here if this be either easie or familiar when he puts ye for te which is thee and you for vos and so he goes on in his Book putting ye or you for tu te and tibi and ye or you for vos and vobis and so makes no distinction betwixt singular and plural as when he sayes in the same ninth page speaking of more than one Ye should be in firm friendship and the Latine is Vos esse jam junctissimos And again in that page he sayes Specially since there be so few of you and the Latine is Praesertim cùm vos sitis tam pauci and then when one is spoken to he sayes you also That I was certified from you and the Latine is Me à te certiorem fáctum esse and so here the Reader may see this is not an easie nor a familiar Construction that makes no distinction betwixt the singular and plural but puts you or ye for vos and vobis and you or ye for tu te and tibi and so his easie and familiar Construction is become confusion and not necessary nor profitable for childrens exercise that is so filled with non-sence H. F. in his Book called sylva synonymorum he sayes in the 58 page of his Book Tuo s●asu or tua persuasu and he Englishes it and sayes By your Councel Advise or Perswasion so here Boyes you may see this is false for vestro suasu or vestro persuasu is your Councel Advise or Perswasion and tuo suasu or tuo persuasu is thy Counsel Advise or Perswasion In page 131 Optamus tibi salutem omnia prospera he Englishes it and sayes God save you here he puts you for the Latine word tibi which is to thee and vobis is for you as is aforementioned In 162 page Nosce teipsum he Englishes and sayes Know your self instead of thy self and this is false again In the 219 page Ad te nihil ad me valde pertinet and he translates it and sayes It is not your part but mine and so here he puts your for te which is thee Now would it not be nonsence for one to say ad te pertinet it belongs to thee or it s thy part to three or four persons to put te which is thee in the place of vos which is you or ye and in this manner of translating in many more places of this Book doth this H. F. proceed in and so he may well call his Book sylva which is a Wood for he is in a Wood himself and would bring all others that followes his Translation into a Wood with him that puts plural for singular you and your for thee and thy Ier. Wharton Master of Arts his English Grammar which is Printed for Schollars which in it he teaches the word singular to one and plural to many and when he hath done he writes an Epistle to Iohn Co●lston Esquire and sayes you to him and your and so hath confounded himself and all his teaching who teaches singular to one in his Book and then speaks plural to one and sayes you and your to him he writes his Book to a single person and before he in his Book teaches thee and thou to one and you and your to many so you may see how he hath confounded himself in his teaching that doth not practise himself what he hath taught in his Book this manner of teaching Children and Boyes is enough to distract them when they teach one thing and practise another He sayes in his Book ho Boy you take no care in page 89 of his English Grammar here he speaks you to one who hath taught contrary by his Directions and so confounds his own teaching who teaches in his Grammar thou to singular and you to plural and yet in his Epistle he speaks you to a singular and so he deserves the Rod for teachi●g another what he practiseth not himself A Catechism by Thomas Ingmethorpe translated into H●brew to be learned of every Child and his first question is What is your name And he Hebrews it and sayes 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Ma Shemecha which is What thy name For cha at the end of a word is thy and chem is your as before mentio●ed in the Hebrew Battledoor and so this is an ill Translator that cannot speak proper words that puts your for thy And the second Question he askes is Who gave you this name and he sayes in the Hebrew 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Mi kara shem hazze la●h that is who gave thou this name for lach is for thee and lachem is for you as in the Hebrew Battle-door and thus he translates and puts cha and lach for you and your when they are for thy and thee and so this Catechism is not a fit Book for Children to read who puts the singular in Hebrew cha and lach thy and thee to the English words your and you which are plural though the English Catechism be false also set out by the Bishop And he askes again and sayes What did your Godfathers and Godmothers then for you as if God had a father and God had a mother and he Hebrews it a●d sayes 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Ma asu haorbim hae le tachtecha baet hahi Mark it s cha thy not chem your for cha as before mentioned at the end of a word is thy singular and chem is your plural and so this man translates like a man that is distracted or out of his sences and shews himself to be ignorant of the Hebrew Grammar and Hebrew Bible who puts the Hebrew singular cha and lach thy and thee to the English plural your and you and thus he proceeds in some other places of his Book

than I will offend my own will and my own proud mind and other mens pride who cannot bear it I will rather deny Grammar and Scripture and Sense and Reason I will follow the customes of the Nations who sayes you to one and you to many and so have lost distinction though it be otherwise in the Bible and Grammars and though it have been otherwise in former years before the Apostacy yet let me joyn with the Pope and his power that first brought it in How the word You to one came first from the Roman Empire Part of James Howells Epistle dedicated to the Nobilityand Gentry of Great Britain annexed to a French English Dictionary compiled by Randle Cotgraue which was printed in the Year 1650. FUrthermore I find in the French language that the same fate hath attended some words as usually attend men among whom we find some use to rise to preferment others to fall to decay and an under-value I will instance in a few this word Maistre Master was a word of high esteem in former times among the French and appliable to Noble men and other in some high Office onely but now it is fallen from the Baron to the Boor from the Count to the Cobler or any other mean Artisan as Maistre Jean le sauuetier Mr. Iohn the Cobler Maistre Jaques le Cabaretier Mr. Iammy the Tap-house man Sire was also appropriate onely to the King but now adding a name after it is a title applyable to any mean man upon the endorsement of a letter or otherwise but this word Souuerain clean contrary hath raised it self to that cumble of greatness that it is now applied onely to the King whereas in times past the President of any petty Court any Bailiff or Seneshall was called Souuerain Mareshal likewise at first was the name of a Smith Farrier or one that dressed horses but it climbed by degrees to that height that the Chiefest Commanders of the Gendarmery of France are com'd to be called Marshalls which a bout a hundred years since were but two in all and now they are twelve This Title Majesty hath no great Antiquity in France for it began in Henry the Seconds time And indeed it was the Stile of France at first as well as any other Countries Tutoyer to thou any person one spoke unto But when the Common-wealth of Rome turned to an Empire and so much Power came unto one mans hand then in regard he was able to Conferr Honor and Offices the Countries began to magnifie him and to speak to him in the Plural Number by 〈◊〉 and to deify him with Transcending Titles as we read in Symmachus his Epistles to the Emperour Theodosius and to Valentinian wherein his Stile unto them is vestra aeternitas vestrum numen vestra perennitas vestra Clementia so that you in the Plural Number with other Titles and Complements seems to have its first rise with Monarchy which descended afterwards by degrees upon particular men HEre you may see in the Battle-doors aforesaid which is the first entrance into learning which is to beat down all into it that they may see the Pope was the first that used the word you or us which is Plural to One and so from him to the Kings and Lords and all their Officers till it came to the common people whose Example the Protestants have followed and are not yet recovered nor out of it Redeemed but they are called Fools and Ideots Novices and Clowns that do not follow that Popish way nor the Pope their Example or Teacher but are come to the understanding of God to destinguish Plural from singular to the word for the Singular and for the Plural that doth distinguish and these are they that are hated of all people upon the earth both Protestants and Papists that have lost their understanding that God hath given to them and degenerated from the distinguishing words to the Plural and to the Singular and not only so but are degenerated from their own Teaching Books Accidences and Grammars which Teach Plural and Singular and not onely so but are degenerated from their own Translations of the Bible which is Plural and Singular Thou to One and You to Many in their own Mother Tongue which through pride ●●d ambition they are degenerated from and call them Novices and Clowns and Ideots that practice it as you may read in the Bibles which they have Translated into the English Tongue and their Grammars and Accidences So that if men that are accounted wise in the earth be thus degenerated from their own mother Tongue their own Teaching books Grammars and Accidences and their own Language in the Bible which they have Translated as in every Tongue that they have Translated in they have Translated Singular and Plural from which they have erred here if they have degenerated from their own words and doings as they have from their own Tongues from the Tongues which are natural and so are gone and degenerated from these things before mentioned which be natural things sure all cannot but judg that they are far degenerated from the Divine things and Spiritual things that thus be gone from their own Teaching Books and their Tongues into which they have Translated the Bible and the understanding or distinction which God hath given to them to distinguish between Plural and Singular and the word to the Singular and the word to the Plural If men cannot endure to here these things they are not like to hear ●alke of Divine things and Spiritual But now their is a redemption from the Degeneration from the naturalls and nature is come and coming into its right course again and so now Truth hath to drive all this degeneration back again to the Pope from whence it came and to travel through the Protestants through all their degenerations till it come to the head the Pope the well which it sprung out off that all may come into the true understanding of God again through which we comprehend the Popes understanding who was the first Author of it who through his Pride and Ambition destroyed the Common-Wealth of Rome and there is your example of all you proud ones that cannot endure Thou Singular to One but You the Plural like the Pope your Example the understanding of God is arising beyond the Popes and all his adherants who have followed him to whom Plural hath been spoken when they should have spoken Singular And so Gods people are come to speak Singular and Plural and the word to the Singular and the word to the Plural which doth offend none but whom the Pope hath been their Example and Schoolmaster and Teacher and Pattern but now over all this is seen with the pure of God and comprehended by the understanding of God George Fox THe Papists and the Protestants have their Colledges where they make their Divines by their Tongues and these are they that are called the Witty Men and Wise and Divines which the many Tongues which

Christians indeed but fitter to be burnt as the true Christians of old burnt their Books which was at a great value And now we will try what these Christians in England and elsewhere will do with their Books which they teach their Children in their Schools and have been taught in England for many years past we have drawn out some few Examples forth of some of the School-Books to shew to the Reader what words they use in their Schools in their Books and whether such words and such Books be fit to be used and taught yea or nay Or the words of Scripture for them to be taught in Schools to Children According to what already in this forementioned Book is charged upon People from the Lord not to teach these Heathenish Books but let them be burnt as useless and if any will learn other Languages to their Children that they may learn them the Scriptures of Truth and other found and wholsome words and savoury and not such unsavoury words as is and have been practised in their Schools for many years let not the earth be stained and corrupted with such silthiness For evil words corrupts the good manners And first we have taken forth some few words out of that Book which is commonly taught Children when they first enter into Latine which is called Pueriles Confabulatiunculae that is Childrens Talkes IN the 9th page of that Book Col. 3.

Col. 2. the 3d. Book Hem verbero Ho you Rogue And many other such like Sentences are in this Book which are commonly taught Children and Translated by Charles Hool which Book he commends much in his Epistle Dedicatory faith he I have been told in commendation of that yet famous Dr. Reynolds once President of C. C. C. and then the Universities Orator in Oxford that when young Students came to him and desired him to inform them what Books they were best to peruse for the speedier and surer attainment of a clean Latine style of speech he ever bad them get Corderius's Colloquies and be sure in reading them to make those expressions their own both

for writing and speaking because in them they should find Terence and Tullie's Elegancies applied to their Common talk th●s faith Hool in his Epistle Dedicatory in Commendation of this Book out of which these few Examples are gathered And so here the Reader may see what kind of men Oxford have bred who this Charles Hool calls yet famous Dr. Reynolds President of C. C. C. and the Vniversities Orator in Oxford who advices young Students to read this Book and to make those Expressions their own both for writing and speaking because in them they should find Terence and Tullie's Elegancies applied to their common talk Now what Terence's Elegancies are I have taken forth some of them that the Reader may see the folly and madness of the yet famous Doctor Reynolds Oxfords Orator who Commended this Book so much called Colloquia Scholastica School-Conferences and advising young Students to make those expressions their own and what Expressions are contained in that Book I have given the Reader a hint of some few already though many more might be gathered not sit to be mentioned amongst any that fears God and a shame for a Doctor Oxford Orator to Commend to young Students to make such Expressions their own which already I have mentioned and in these following Examples do mention out of that Book Terence which this Doctor Reynolds calls Elegancie Some Examples drawn out of that Book called Terence a school-School-book which hath been much applauded in England and other parts for pure and elegant Latine as thou may perceive by Doctor Reynalds speech aforesaid to the young Students as also what Rich. Bernard sayes of this Authour Terence in his Epistle Dedicatory wherein saith he I offer you here that which fortune hath vouchafed to favour me withal a Latine Authour to speak English a Comical Poet pithie pleasant and very profitable as merry as Eutrapeles as grave as Cato as ethical as Plato he can play craftily the Couzener and cunningly the Clown he will tell you the nature of the fraudulent flatterer the grimme and greedy old Sire the roysling Ruffian the minsing Mynion and beastly Bawd c. These words are placed in the Epistle Dedicatory to the Worshipful as he sayes young Gentle-man and of vertuous Education Mr. Christopher Wray Son and Heir to the Right Worshipful Sir William Wray Knight and to the rest of the Toward young Gentle-men his Brethren Nephews to the Vertuous and True Religious Ladies the Lady Bowes and the Lady Sainctpol his very bountiful Patronesses c. And these flattering Titles he gives them from Epworth in Lincoln-shire the 30th of May as he calls it And subscribes himself yours in the Lord RICHARD BERNARD I have set down these words that sober People may see how blind this Learned man is to give such Titles to Men and Women as are above-mentioned and yet can find no better subject to present to their View then this Play-Book this shews plainly what spirit they are of both he that Translates it and they unto whom it s Dedicated for if they were such as he stiles them Worshipful Gentle Vertuous Right Toward True Religious he would not have presumed to have sent such a piece as Terence a Maker of Playes I have gathered out some few Examples that the sober Reader may see how little cause Oxfords Orator had to call them Terences and Tullies Elegancies and how Charles Hool might have been more Considerate in speaking so much to the Commendation of that Book called Colloquia Scholastica and commending it the more because it was Terence and Tullies Ellegancies of which Elegancies of Terence see a few Examples as followeth Translated by the said Richard Bernard Cantabrigiae ex Officina Iohannis Legat 1607.

And abundance more of such like Expressions might be gathered out of this Play-book which is counted in the Schools a pure Latine stile and by some times Oxfords Orator called Elegancies and by Rich. Bernard pithy pleasant and profitable But the sober-minded and who fears God have cause to avoid such words and such books both and not to account them Elegancies nor to make such Expressions their own but to Judge such and to esteem them unpleasant and unprofitable not fit to be mentioned amongst Christians A few Examples taken out of a Book Printed in the Year 1655 called a Treatise of English Particles by W. W. Master of the Free Grammar School of King Edward the sixth in Louth in Lincoln-shire which as he sayes his chief Design is to prevent and cure gross ridiculous Barbarisms committed daily by young Learners we have spoken something of him already in the former Book about the Singular and Plural Language his putting you which is the Plural wordr in English to tu which is the Singular word in Latine Now we have drawen out some of his Phrases which to the sober will appear rather to be Barbarismes then Elegancies IN pag. 13. Chap. 13. Absque juramento tibi non credidissem But for your Oath I would not have believed you Mark this Phrase shews forth a tolleration of an Oath which is Barbarous and not a Saints practice nor Christs Doctrine which saith Swear not at all Matth. 5. And besides in this Phrase is two lyes for here is your and you mentioned in the English Phrase and no such word in the Latine for the Latine is tibi which is thee and not vobis which is you and your In page 36. Chap. 15. Stultus es qui huic credas Ton are a Fool for believing him What W. W. is this a fit Phrase to teach in a Christian School to say Fool is not Boyes too apt to use such words without teaching And besides thy false Translation you Fool for the Latine which thou puts for you are is es which is thou art and estis is you or ye are but such Mis-translation is in a manner generally throughout thy Book and this is a lye and Barbarismes to put the Plural word you in English to the Singular tu and tibi in Latine In page 55.

A fixen a limbe of the Devil She can do no more evil than a She-Ape And many such like frothy light unfavoury expressions are in the said Authours Book which writes himself Batchelour of Divinity but let the sober and honest Reader Judge whether such Expressions be Divine the words of the Saints wholsom words or the words of Heathens from whom he hath gathered most of them as thou may understand by the Authours names set at the end of some of the Sentences I could gather many more out of that Book which are not fit to be mentioned among any that fears God or knows what Divine is for if the Authour had been Divine he would not have sent a Book abroad into the world stuft with prophane and old Wives Fables which the man of God was to refuse 1 Tim. 4. Here follows some few words gathered out of a School-Book called P. Ovidii Nasonis Sulmonensis de Arte amandi Liber 1. Of the Art of Love And Ovid. in that Book begins thus SI quis in hoc artem populo non novit amandi Me legat lecto carmine doctus amet The same by one is Englished thus in Verse If there be any in this Multitude That in the Art of Love is dull and rude Me let him read and these my lines rehearse He shall be made a Doctor by my Verse And so he goes on and sayes in page 397. Inquè meo nullum carmine crimen erit And there shall be no fault in this my Verse p. 2. in the English And now we will try whether he speaks true or not when he sayes there shall be no fault in his Verse In page 397. Principio quod amare velis reperire labora Qui nova nunc primùm Miles ad Arma venis Proximus huic labor est placidam exorare puellam Tertius ut longo tempore duret amor First thou that art a fresh man and art bent To bear Loves Armes and follow Cupids Tent Find whom to Love the next thing thou must do Learn how to speak her fair to plead and wooe Lest having won thy Mistris to thy lure I 'le teach thee how to make that Love endure And so he goes on with a great deal of light and unclean Expressions in that 397th page In page 398. Tu quoque materiam longo qui quaeris amori Antè frequens quo sit disce puella loco And thou that studiest to become a Lover Learn in what place most Virgins to discover c.

More Ears of ripe Corn grows not in the Fields Nor half so many Boughs the Forrest yields So many green Leaves grows not in the Woods Nor swim so many Fish in the salt Floods So many Stars in Heaven you cannot see As here be pretty Wenches Rome in thee Mark If these be not lyes and he tells us before Inque meo nullum carmine crimen erit And there shall be no fault in this my Verse And does he not speak here many lyes as already I have mentioned For these words stirs up lust beside the lyes and so not fit to be taught in Christian Schools but to be burnt In page 400. Si qua repugnabat nimium comitemque negabat Sublatam Cupido vir tulit ipse sinu Atque ita quid teneros lachrymis corrumpis ocellos Quod Matri Pater est hoc tibi dixit ero If any strived against it strait her man Would take her on his knee whom fear made wan And say Why weepest thou Sweet What ailest my dear Dry up those drops these Clouds of sorrow clear I 'le be to thee if thou thy grief wilt smother Such as thy Father was unto thy Mother p. 6. In p. 401. Poximus à Domina nullo prohibente sedeto Iunge tuum lateri quàm potes usque latus c. But where thy Mistris sits do thou abide Who shall forbid thee to attain her side c.

Here the Reader may see for what already hath been taken out of this Book that such words are not fit to be mentioned in Christian Schools But read on and see what Councel he gives men to encrease lust though he call it Love as to dissemble to taste sweet viands and to drink wine c. In p. 404.

Dugard late Master of Merchant-Taylors School nor not fit to be taught in Christian Schools though they be gathered out of that golden work of Erasmi Colloquia worthy the often reading as the Post-script mentions by all Schollars but all who are taught by God and his Schollars will avoid such Books and Judge them and the Authour too though he be called a Divine a●d though they be taken out of that Golden Work of Erasmus's Colloquies and be Recognized by W. Du-gard yet they who are taught of God sees such Books and Phrases both to be out of the Tr●th and far from pure language which its said in the Title-page already mentioned that the purity and propriety of both the Languages are Expressed this is not so for in a manner throughout thy Book thou puts the Plural for the Singular and this is neither proper nor pure but bald and Barbarous both which thou sayes is to prevent it but any who reads these bad words and Phrases may soon see that such vain and prophane Expressions and old Wives Fables which the man of God was to shune will rather encrease Barbarisms than prevent them Now I come to gather out some bad undivine unchristian Expressions out of a Book of the said John Clark who writes himself Batchelour in Divinity sometimes Master of the Free-School in Lincoln But first I set down the Title of his Book which he calls Phraseologia Puerilis five Elegantiae Sermonis Latini pariter atque Anglicani capitatim concinnatae atque in Methodum Alphabetariam distributae in usum Scholastici Tyrocinii Polit●● utpote puerilem ad utriusque Linguae politiem in peculiari suo vicissatim idiomate dirigentes Or Selected Latine and English Phrases very useful for young Latinists to prevent Barbarismes and bad Latine making and to initiate them in speaking and writing elegantly in both Language c.
