troubled with the parsing of it and easiliest carry his lesson in minde And although it was said before that the scholler should learne but a little at once it is not meant that when the Master hath heard him a while he should let him alone for that were more negligence for both parts but I would all their time they be at schoole they should neuer be idle but alwayes occupied in a continuall rehearsing and looking backe againe to those things they haue learned and be more bound to keep well their old then to take forth any new Thus if the Master occupy them he shall see a little lesson take a great deale of time and diligently enquiring and examining of the parts and the rules not to bee done so quickly and speedily as it might be thought to be within a while by this vse the Scholler shal be brought to a good kind of readinesse of making to the which if there be adioyned some vse of speaking which must necessarily be had he shall be brought past the wearisome bitternes of his learning A great helpe to further this readinesse of making and speaking shall be if the Master giue him an English booke and cause him ordinarily to turne euery day some part into Latine This exercise cannot be done without his rules and therfore doth establish them and ground them surely in his mind for readines and maketh him more able to speake suddenly whensoeuer any present occasion is offered for the same And it doth help his learning more a great deale to turne out of English into Latine then contrary Furthermore we see many can vnderstand Latine that cannot speake it and when they reade the Latine word in the booke can tell you the English thereof at any time but when they haue layd away their bookes they cannot contrariwise tell you for the English the Latine againe whensoeuer you will aske them And therefore this exercise helpeth this sore well and maketh those words which hee vnderstandeth to be readiest by vse vnto him and so perfecteth him in the tongue handsomely These precepts well kept will bring a man cleane past the vse of this Grammar booke and make him as ready as his book and so meet to further things whereof it were out of season to giue precepts here And therefore this may be for this purpose enough which to good Schoolemasters and skilfull are not so needfull to other meaner and lesse practised it may be not onely worth the labour of reading but also of the vsing The LATINE Letters are thus WRITTEN abcdefghiklmnopqrsstvuxyz ABCDEFGHIKLMNOPQRSTVXYZ abcdefghiklmnopqrsstvuxyz ABCDEFGHIKLMNOPQRSTVXYZ Letters are diuided into VOWELS and CONSONANTS A Vowell is a Letter which maketh a full and perfect sound of himselfe and there are fiue in number namely A.
