Which he sayes the chief designe of his Book is to prevent and cure the diseases of Barbarismes and to stop the ignorance of many grosse and ridiculous Barbarismes committed dayly by young Learners And in which Book which is the work of W. 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.

but such must be stop'd from translating that cannot distinguish betwixt singular and plural that would own such a Catechism of the Bishops who put you and your for thee and thy for they in that Catechism intends but one Child when they say your and you and so they are both judged he for putting cha and lach thy and thee singular to their words you and your plural though their intent was but to one Child like the Professors and Teachers in this age who sayes you and your to one and you and your to more than one and so have lost distinction and must come to be taught the Battle-door both such Translators as this and such as follow the steps of the Bishops who said your name when they should have said thy name c.

AEmilius Lepidus the Cons●l against Lu. Silla where it is said in the first four lines of that Oration Clementia probitas vestra Quirites quibus per coeteras gentes maximi Clari estis In English Your clemency and integrity O ye Romans by which you are most great and famous amongst other Nations Mark here he speaks plural when he speaks to more than one to Romans vestra and estis your and you are not tua and es thy and thou art and so he proceeds in that Oration in the plural language being that he speaks to more than one in saying several times in that speech O ye Romans and other Orations there are that followes this in that History of Salust which keeps to the plural language when more than one is written to I shall not instance more examples as to that for any lad that reads that book can tell you that it is so and they can tell you that when King Mithridate King of Pontus wrote to Arsaces King of Parthia that he did not you him nor ye him but thou'd thee'd and thy'd him several times in his Letter and if you scorn to read your selves the Boyes can tell you that Salust thee'd and thou'd C. Caesar the Emperour in his Orations In Purchas his Pirgrims the third Part in folio 59. In a Letter from Cham the Emperour of Tartaria unto Bajothnoy one of his Captains he writes unto him in the singular number thou O Bajothnoy and in Bajothnoys Letter unto the Pope in the same Book he writes ●nto him in the singular number thou Pope but in both the said Letters when they mention many they use the plural number you A Word to all such as teaches their Children to Learn other Tongues as Latine or the like by Heathen Books THE Children of Israel were to teach the Law of God and the Commands of God and the Statutes of the Lord this was the Command of the Lord God to Moses the chief Magistrate among them and they were to destroy the Heathens inventions and they were not to teach their Children them but to break that down which they had invented and to be taught the Law of God so you do not read that they were to be taught the Heathens Books and the things that they had invented but the Law of God was to be kept and to break down what the Heathen had invented and to be rooted out of their memories And now you that are called Christians you must be fain to have Heathen Books to teach

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.
