if_o we_o search_v the_o school_n of_o all_o age_n and_o all_o place_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o from_o time_n to_o time_n they_o be_v man_n of_o great_a renown_n great_a honour_n and_o virtue_n therefore_o that_o we_o may_v the_o more_o orderly_o view_v their_o trace_n throughout_o these_o school_n first_o let_v we_o enter_v into_o the_o old_a school_n of_o god_n people_n which_o school_n we_o will_v call_v the_o school_n of_o the_o hebrew_n second_o let_v we_o step_v aside_o into_o the_o school_n of_o the_o gentile_n which_o we_o may_v call_v the_o school_n of_o humanity_n three_o we_o will_v come_v near_o to_o our_o own_o school_n comprehend_v in_o it_o the_o school_n of_o christianity_n in_o the_o first_o school_n therefore_o though_o adam_n be_v contain_v hebrew_n who_o no_o doubt_n do_v his_o duty_n in_o teach_v his_o child_n yet_o for_o that_o we_o find_v no_o evidence_n thereof_o in_o writing_n we_o will_v pass_v by_o he_o and_o come_v to_o his_o son_n seth_n a_o very_a godly_a and_o learned_a schoolmaster_n as_o i_o may_v term_v he_o for_o beside_o that_o it_o be_v record_v that_o in_o his_o day_n man_n begin_v to_o worship_n god_n and_o to_o 3._o call_v

up_o into_o heaven_n alive_a moreover_o 14._o the_o same_o josephus_n write_v that_o when_o they_o understand_v that_o the_o world_n shall_v be_v twice_o destroy_v once_o with_o water_n and_o again_o with_o fire_n they_o engrave_v their_o learning_n in_o two_o pillar_n the_o one_o of_o brick_n the_o other_o of_o stone_n that_o if_o the_o brick_n pillar_n shall_v be_v dash_v in_o piece_n with_o

of_o mankind_n after_o the_o flood_n fetch_v out_o of_o heaven_n and_o bring_v unto_o man_n in_o very_a truth_n it_o must_v be_v understand_v of_o noah_n who_o be_v the_o author_n of_o this_o reparation_n another_o 19_o most_o reverend_a teacher_n in_o this_o school_n be_v abraham_n of_o who_o god_n himself_o testify_v that_o he_o teach_v his_o child_n and_o family_n the_o way_n of_o the_o

and_o the_o rest_n which_o we_o will_v pass_v over_o together_o with_o melchisedec_n that_o ancient_a priest_n see_v there_o be_v no_o mention_n make_v of_o their_o teach_n thus_o we_o have_v in_o this_o school_n seth_n enoch_n no_o and_o abraham_n four_o most_o ancient_a patriarch_n of_o bless_a memory_n celebrate_v by_o name_n to_o be_v doctor_n and_o master_n beside_o many_o other_o

heroical_a spirit_n and_o golden_a wit_n that_o they_o do_v conceive_v and_o keep_v in_o mind_n without_o the_o help_n of_o letter_n a_o great_a deal_n better_o than_o the_o age_n follow_v can_v do_v so_o that_o their_o letterlesse_a and_o unwritten_a doctrine_n do_v bring_v that_o fruit_n and_o commodity_n which_o we_o do_v now_o be_v write_v howbeit_o by_o josephus_n report_n we_o see_v that_o

the_o next_o renown_a doctor_n in_o this_o school_n come_v forth_o with_o his_o pen_n and_o ink_n and_o write_v the_o law_n and_o precept_n of_o the_o live_a god_n with_o diverse_a history_n full_a of_o noble_a example_n contain_v the_o doctrine_n of_o all_o divine_a and_o humane_a matter_n i_o mean_v moses_n who_o also_o propound_v and_o interpret_v this_o doctrine_n to_o a_o great_a
