always but sometimes a Verb of the Infinitive Mood and then the Adjective if there be any after the Verb must be the Neuter Gender if it have no Substantive to agree with To lye is not lawful To cheat is not safe To play is not profitable To neglect hurteth To rest strengthneth To jeer fretteth Aliquando Oratio c. and sometimes a whole sentence which hath always an Infinitive Mood in it e. g. To sleep long is not wholsom To despise Admonitions destroyeth Boys To be vexed because of losses consumeth To teach others teacheth the Teachers 2. Concord ADjectivum cum Substantivo genere numero causa Concordat Every Adjective must be of the same Case Gender and Number with the Substantive to which it belongs which answers to who or what A Diltgent Master instructeth attentive Scholars A godly Son rejoyceth an happy Father A needy man findeth few Friends A small Family requireth little preparation A good Exercise deserveth great praise Rash Counsel hindreth great gain Ad eundem modum Participia c. A Pronoun or Participle must agree with the Substantive as if it were an Adjective e. g. My good Master correcteth his own Son Thy torn Book hath not my Lesson Our Form fighting lost the promised reward Your Man-Servant running threw down my Brother standing A fighting Cock fears not his crowing Enemy A neighing Horse despiseth the Darts flying A raging multitude breaketh setled peace Note 2. Sometimes in a sentence there is an Adjective which hath no Substantive to agree with and which hath this sign the before it as if it self were a Substantive In such Case that Adjective must be always the Masculine Gender because the word man or men is always understood if it stand before a Veb it must be the Nominative Case if after a Verb the Accusative and for its Number it is for the most part such as the Verb which it either cometh before or after e. g. The Industrious are praised but the slothsul are punished The righteous findeth peace but the wicked shall seel torment The covetous despiseth the poor but the liberal cherisheth him The wise seeketh greater wisdom but the fool despiseth understanding The merciful and kind shall find mercy but the cruel shall be recompenced Note 3. Sometimes the word thing or things comes after an Adjective and is the Substantive to it but in such Cases you must rather omit making any Latin for thing and only put the Adjectives into the Neuter Gender and make it such Case and Number as res should have been if it had been exprest e. g. It is a pleasant thing to see the Sun It is a more pleasant thing to see God It is a most cruel thing to kill Infants To Exercise Clemency is a most generous thing To play little to sleep little to learn much to rise early are very excellent things To despise the wicked and to love the good are things commendable Note 4. Sometimes two or three Substantives with and between them have but one Adjective which hath relation to them all in such Case the Adjective must be the Plural Number and in Gender must agree with that which is of the most worthy the Masculine is more worthy than the Feminine or Neuter and the Feminine more worthy than the Neuter Except in things which have no life and there the Neuter is most worthy e.g. My Father and Mother are pious My Brother and Sister are idle Thy Paper and thy Pen-knife are bad My Exercise and my Lesson are profitable Our Man-servant and Maid-servant and I are good and shall have rewards Thou thy Master and thy Mistress have been kind and merit my greatest thanks 3. Concord RElativum cum Anticedente Concordat Genere Numero Persona The Relative Qui agreeth with his Antecedent in Gender Number and Person e. g. 1. The good Boy which 2. The honest Nurse which Quoties nullus Nominativus inerseritur inter Relativum Verbum c. 1. The Relative must not agree with the Antecedent in Case but must be the Nominative Case to a Verb if it stand immediately before a Verb and no other Noun or Pronoun between it and the Verb be the Nominative Case to it e. g. That Woman is loved which Woman hath a fair face That Girl is lovely which Girl bought me my Knife That Servant is trusty which Servant brought me my Breakfast That Hat begins to be torn which Hat covers my Brother's Head That man is a Butcher which Man struck my Father with a Stone That Preacher is honoured which Preacher knows how to prepare Divine Comforts for the Soul I love that School-fellow which School-fellow lent me Books I who found your Book The Master is honoured which taketh pains Thou art condemned who despisest thy Mother He had greatest praise that said the longest part The godly Father that instructeth his wicked Son delivereth himself The Rebellious Scholar that despiseth his Master vexeth his Master but he destroyeth himself The wicked that fear not God will blame their own folly hereafter The rewards which are promised shall be given if the works that are required be done At si Nominativus Relativo Verbo interponatur c. 2. But if between the Relative and the Verb there stand a Noun or Pronoun Substantive which answers to the Question who or what made by the Verb then the Relative must be either 1. Such Case as the Verb requireth after him which is in the same Sentence with the Relative which Sentence ought in writing proper English to be distinguished by a Comma before and after it if it will answer the Question whom or what made by the Verb e. g. 1. The Boy will die that thou hast beaten 2. The Horse was very good that my Father sold 3. The Comedy which we acted was pleasant 4. The Boy whom learning delighteth will win love and shall be honoured 5. The diligent Master whom the Boys observe maketh his Scholars learned but he whom his own Scholars despise laboureth in vain 6. That foul Vice which men embrace most greedily is most hurtful 2. Or if any other word stand between it and the Verb besides the Nominative Case to the Verb or stand before it and the Verb which requires a Case then the Relative doth not follow the Verb but is to be put in such Case as that other word governs e. g. 1. The House whose Foundation is not strong will fall when the wind bloweth 2. The praise for which thon strivest shall not be given because thou dost not exercise thy utmost strength If whose be the English of the Relative the Relative must be the Genitive Case e. g. 1. The man whose fame is lost is miserable 2. The Boys whose Lesson is hardest apply the greater industry If a Preposition come before the Relative the Relative is governed of that e. g. The mark to which the Horse runs endeth the Horses labour In other Cases it hath commonly some signs

write down in a Book which I read over once a week that I may not commit the same Error twice When our Master is correcting our Exercises I always attend most diligently I fix mine Eyes upon him and my mind upon his words If any other Boy have a better Phrase or manner of expressing than I I certainly take care to remember it If the Exercises of any other Form be corrected when my Task is done I attain to that which seemeth not to belong to me I think it concerns me to listen to every thing that I may get good by Having furnished my self by these Methods and prepared my understanding I set about my Exercise which I always read over before I begin to translate it as our Master hath most wisely commanded I never write down any word or Phrase before a certain knowledge or accurate enquiry whether it be fit to my purpose If I at all doubt I never rest till I be certain If I cannot find out what I seek I ask the next day I scorn not to learn of the meanest Boy much less do I neglect to ask our Master if no body else know I never slightly pass over any difficulty the more pains I take at one time the less labour shall I need the next Exercise I always appoint my self a certain measure of time for my Exercise a moment of which I never bestow upon any other business I never cease till I have done I interrupt not my self nor suffer the dearest Friend to interrupt me my supper and my sleep always give place to business Most Boys are easily diverted which utterly hindereth accuracy I read over each Latin Sentence by it self after I have made it twice or thrice and at last the whole Exercise again and again deliberately to observe any Errors which I have committed which I correct my self before the Master overlook it And lastly I never am hasty but allow time enough to each Word and Sentence Many Boys bring always bad Exercises for want of patient consideration I have now answered thy Question and told thee the chief things which I observe L. I heartily thank thee I will imitate thee for the future DIALOGUE X. Thomas and John THom I was told that your Brother had displeased his Master and therefore was not only chidden but beaten John That Boy is worthy of a whipping that told you for though I have no desire to accuse any one for a fault before my Master yet it is not fit that Punishments that any one suffers in the School should be published openly Thom. You are to be commended who are careful to observe the Laws of the School but do not ask me the Boys Name that told me this thing for indeed he was afraid lest any of his School-fellows should hear of it But I also understand that you excel many other Boys in writing which I am glad to hear John I must not tarry now for I am to buy some Books that I have need of Farewell DIALOGUE XI Thomas and Richard IF I am not deceived I saw your Brother weeping when I called you Rich. Both my Brother and Sister wept and they had cause to weep for my Father was angry with them Tho. What fault had they committed I know that they are of a good disposition and therefore surely they would endeavour to please your Father and therefore it is not good to enquire into other mens business yet tell me their fault if you please Rich. My Father was about to take a Journey to receive some Money which a Countrey-man my Father's Tenant owed him but he wanted a Saddle and therefore sent my Brother and Sister to buy him a Saddle They went but tarried so long that at last he would not go This was the cause of my Father's anger for they tarried talking with our Neighbours Daughter whose company they loved Tho.

You always take liberty to accuse me for my Faults I have had Chiding enough at home to day I did not expect to be chidden abroad also Hen. Dost not thou fear the punishment that God the just Judge whose Eyes behold all mens actions hath threatned against such Children as do not obey their Parents I wonder that you are not ashamed of your wickedness by which you break the Laws both of God and Nature and believe me if you do not amend your manners you will repent of your folly when it is too late what if your Parents whom you are so disobedient to should cast you off Remember my words which I speak not out of hatred to you for I pity you Reform your life and then both your Father and you will have opportunity to rejoyce DIALOGUE XIII Thomas and Francis THO. How do you my good Friend Francis Fran. I am heartily glad that you are in health My Brother Richard desired me to remember his love to you Tho. I thank both him and you Fran. How much did that Book cost you that you have in your left hand T. It is a Book than which I never saw any more handsomely bound and yet it cost me but a little for he that sold it me did not understand the Books worth Fran. Did a Bookseller sell it you Tho. No I bought it of one that found that and another Book in the Street Fran. I pity him that lost them it may be he hath sorrow enough it is probable that it was some careless boy whose Parents have been sufficiently angry with him yea it may be he hath been beaten soundly But thus we see it often that one's loss is another's gain but I must not tarry now lest I lose the opportunity to send this Letter Farewell DIALOGUE XIV Joseph and Philip. Jos I Have brought you the Book that I borrowed when you and I were at London together and I intend to buy me such a Book for it hath taught me much wisdom Doubtless its Author was a Man af great Piety as well as learning Some Books are scarce worthy of reading but others deserve to be read an hundred times How much did the Book cost you Phil. It cost me five shillings and I do not think it dear For it is a Book than which I never read any more learned and pious yea every leaf thereof is a honey-comb full of most sweet honey drawn from the best of flowers I bought it over against the Exchange at the Sign of the Black-a-moors Head of a Bookseller who never useth to deceive me Jo. It is the same Bookseller that I use to buy Books of he will not offer his Books at a greater price than others and for the most part his Books are most neatly bound Farewell DIALOGUE XV. Thomas and John Tho. I Saw the man that your Father sold his Horse to walking in the street Joh. Which street for my Father would be glad
going to write but I had a mind to play only I wanted a companion whom to play withal for part of our Schoolfellows are gone to wash themselves which my Father and Mother have oft forbidden us on pain of whipping and part of them are gone to fight which is much worse Tho. I have cause to praise you both who are so desirous to please your Father and Mother for no doubt the more care you have to obey them the more will God bless you but yet I see that you are more negligent than your Brother whose only care is to get Learning And indeed they say that he is the most diligent of all the Scholars your Master hath which I now believe to be true To have so much honour as I perceive he hath gotten by his diligence is very rare to be found in boys and indeed when I heard some Neighbours of mine men both honest and of good repute so highly extolling him for his diligence I began to be ashamed of mine own errors who thought that none was a better husband of time than my self it is not lawful for me I know to envy any one but yet to imitate is commendable Threatnings are the only spur to the backward and negligent but those that are of a noble disposition have need rather of a bridle than such a spur A company of Boys may be taught by the same Master the same Lesson and yet one would hardly think how much some shall come on beyond the rest Fra. My Brother is to go if my Fathers mind hold to a place beyond Sea which they call au University but the proper name of it I have forgot Tho. If he goes thither Books will be very necessary for him your Father I believe sees him desirous of nothing but Learning and therefore he will not deny him Books and if his Learning cost your Father much as certainly it will an Hundred pound at least yet he will never repent of it for he will hereafter be mindful of his great cost and if he lives to be old but which of us two or whether either of us or both of us shall see that day is uncertain there will be few in England no nor at Rome more eminent for learning than he Fra. I have an Unkle whom I believe my Brother will be like whose Learning hath been profitable to himself and made him admired by all that know him who I know would be angry with my Father if he should oppose my Brothers desires to obtain Learning he hath promised him some Books yea and Money too Tho. To what study doth your Uncle apply himself chiefly Fra. Divinity Tho. In what City doth he live Fra. At York but he is shortly to come to London Reason is common to all but few enjoy Learning Some seem born to slavery others to honour Tho' his Writing is scarce legible by any yet he hath made a Book almost two foot long and three inches thick a work so full of Learning that most admire it Indeed it cost him many years study many learned men have thought it worthy of publick commendation Tho. It is the part of a wise man to ask counsel of such an one Fra. He counsels us and commands us as if he were our own Father Tho. If you should not give him reverence I should accuse you either of folly or ingratitude or both Fran. I believe you indeed You may compare me to a Fool and I shall take it in good part if I do not always prefer his commands before mine own pleasure I pity such as indulge their own lusts which will not profit but hurt them It concerns us and all wise men to value those things but little which will not be a comfort to them when Old Age comes on I have had experience enough which teacheth Fools the best Lessons to know that repentance is not to be bought at so great a rate as many buy it now a days Pleasure meets us with a smiling face but it behoves us to think on the sorrow that follows Many that are sprung from good Parents do abuse their Nobility to the lessening of their crimes yea others which is hard to be believed have spent their Estates in a year by vice which their Ancestors have scarce gotten in forty years But I must not tarry long it doth not so much belong to me to make a shew of Virtue in reproving others faults neither do many words become me and indeed being weary of discourse I must leave off talk Tho. I am most desirous of your Brothers happiness but I cannot have while to tarry I must go to a place which is almost a mile off to see a man that lives in the Countrey but lately come from York he Lodges beyond St. Pauls he took away a Knife from my Sister tho' I think ignorantly but behold a man yonder that hath red hair I think it is he Farewell live a godly life improve your time like your Brother and remember me to him FINIS THE INDEX A TO abhor Abominor atis atus i. d.
