a foundation of it If to a servant let love and mildnesse so proceed as may not loose its distance for too much rigour looseth the servant and too much love the Master who may easily discerne love from a servant tempered with a little awe is alwayes most available to the Master as acts voluntary go beyond enforcements If to a Maister let the stile be such as may demonstrate all obsequy and duty This I speake in respect of servants as servants in generall not but that I know as there are differences and diverse degrees of Masters so ought there severall respects to be had to servants according to their place and manner of service For it were absurd to think that Gentlemen in those places that may befit their rank and fortune though subject to their masters call should be tied to the obsequious termes of every pedantique Groome As first he that waits voluntary and at his owne expence then Secretaries in their severall ranks then such as serve in the places of Gentlemen as Ushers and the like Then Clarks to men eminent and of quality and Clarks appertaining to Offices Factors and Apprentices especially about London men perhaps as is usuall in that kind better derived than their Masters In this respect I say ought the servant to consider the relation or respect to be had according to his Masters rank his own person and the nature of his service yet generally speaking all servants as servants of what nature or calling soever ought aswell in writing as otherwise to shew a kinde of respect extraordinary Though as I said some be tied to termes more incomparably strict than others If we write to a Parent our stile and manner of writing must be such as may shew all dutifull respect and obedience exacted from a Child to a Parent by the Lawes of God and Nature If to a father or mother in law that is by marriage we will tender our selves in such termes as may professe service and obedience but not duty At least not equall to the former though I grant we ought to think our selves tied in a firme obligation of civill and more than common respect If to a child love and care But the passionate expressions of tender affection better fit a mother than a father for men ought to governe their affections by the rule of reason least otherwise they chance to set a bad example of letting loose the reines of passion of it self too apt to run out of one errour to another In a word if to a friend friendly If to an adversary harsh as you think good according to the nature of the offence and quality of the person offending But not railing or too invective which will argue more passion than judgement or discretion and be a meanes to make other men suppose a want in you of somwhat might make you rightly capable of an injury But if it be to a familiar and intimate friend you shall be restrained to no other rule but onely your own imagination and the best liking of your friend according as you shall observe his conceits most addicted or inclined this way or that Onely take it as a generall and infallible rule let the body of your letter be succinct and pithy such as may expresse much matter in few words and let that be your greatest study by way of inditing And by the way of writing to have respect to Orthography according to those rules we have before prescribed But to come with a bundle of Circumquaques after the manner of the vulgar sort whose common custome is to begin their Letters thus Loving friend The occasion of my writing unto you at this present time is to let you understand that I should be very glad to heare you are in good health as I am at the writing hereof God be blessed therefore c. on in a whole bederoule of ribble-rabble is most ridiculous and absurd in the sight of one which knowes the manner of inditing For to be glad to heare of their welfare is implicit in the title of friend and to send word of your health it suffices to tell if it be not so if not the other is easily imagined And so many prayers and thanksgivings as some put in were better spent in their closet where no ayre might circumvent them than inserted in ordinary letters excepting such as passe betweene man and wife parent and child which passing through so many hands may chance to get infection or at least exposed to the wind and open ayre may chance coole their fervour of devotion But here we likewise exempt Apostolicall benedictions sent from Ministers befitting their function and calling and answerable to the Word of God who in that rightly imitate the worthy President S. Paul in his Epistles Having therfore marked or creased as we call it out the paper which ought to be in folio or in quarto that is an whole sheet or an halfe sheet doubled and having in the top after the usuall custome especially writing to persons of worth and quality left a sufficient space for a vacuum and as ample a margent but that is to be ordered more or lesse according to the quantity of your paper and the subject whereon you are to write then in the first place are you to order the superscription or the title to be attributed as an entrance For your assistance wherein you shall as I said before have respect to the quality of the person to whom it is written and your selfe and that whether as an acquaintance or stranger intimate or lesse familiar having relation or dependance either of other or not friend or adversary c. and then order your title in this manner If therefore it be a Lord for higher I will not ascend presuming any to whom these be directed to have little intercourse with Emperours Monarchs Kings Princes Dukes Marquestes Earles c. or if they have let them seeke other assistance or send to us and we shall do our indeavour to supply their want if it be so as he holds his title onely by some place or dignity by way of Office or Magistracy we seldome superscribe any other title than My Lord and by the way still in the body of your Letter put him in minde of his Lordship and now and then his honour c. If he be a Count or Baron by descent of noble pedigree our title is chiefly Right Honourable Right Honourable and my very good Lord this from a retainer or one that hath dependance on his honour Most noble and illustrious Sir Right Honourable and renowned Sir and diverse others to this effect And from a Gentleman only My Lord will suffice But still we ought in addressing our speech to him to do it with the attribute of His Honour and now and then for change we may say Your Lordship or Your good Lordship from one of meaner rank To a Baronet Honoured Sir as the most usuall and befitting title to
