A03687	Hornbyes hornbook Iudge not too rashly, till through all you looke; if nothing then doth please you, burne the booke. By William Hornbye, gent.	Hornby, William.	1622 (1622)	STC 13814; ESTC S118882	11,595	38

all chiefe learning litrature and Art The Horn-booke is the ground which doth impart A world of Science and great Art and skill Comes from the Horn-booke be it good or ill And I haue reason to colland the same Because t is sounding somewhat neere my name The Rtoritian and the great Logition Th' Arethmatition and the black Magition The learn'd Phisitian and the quaint Musitian The grounded Grecian and the sound Hebritian Which mount Parnassus * Vni●ersity Hill and not to seeke In English Latin Hebrew and in Greeke And all that deeply politick are found Had first their knowledge from the Horn-bookes ground Great learned Preachers of Diuinitie Which with the heauens haue neare affinitie Profound sound Doctors of the Morrall Law First from the Horn-booke did their reason draw And from Christs Cradle to his bloody Crosse In Christ-crosse-row is Character'd each losse And great affliction that to man doth fall Being taught by Patience how to beare withall There 's an old saying to be vnderstood And yet in deed is not so old as good In my beginning God be my good speed In grace and vertue that I may proceed So vertue is the Alpha of Gods grace How we should run th' Omega of our race And what is Patience but a vertue pure Which to the end all Crosses doth endure He that hath Patience is a perfect man And well is skild the Christ-crosse-row to skan Patience is euen the ground frō whence proceeds All goods conceits and charitable deeds And charitie is euen the firme foundation On which a man doth found his soules saluation Then to conclude these vertues first doe flow From the Originall the Christ-crosse-row The little Infant that receiues his birth To passe his pilgrimage vpon the earth Takes first a respite and a time to grow Before he comes vnto the Christ-crosse-row And at his Baptisme euen from the Font Receiues the Crosse of Christ vpon his front In signe that he should neuer shame nor feare The Crosse of Christ and Christian life to beare For three or fower yeares space like to a lamb He spends his time in sporting and in gam His wanton courage somewhat then to Coole His Parents puts him to a petty Schoole Then after that he takes a pritty pride To weare the Horn-booke dangling by his side And was it not well arm'd with plate and horne T' was in great danger to be rent and torne For in his sport sometimes he falleth out With his Schoole-fellow so they haue a bout At Buff and counter-buff the Horr-bookes then Are all the weapons for these stout tall men As t is agreeing with their childish yeares They briefely fall together by the eares For a small cause their quarrell doth begin Euen for a Point a Counter or a Pin And as a trifle small their friendship brake Euen so a toy them friends againe doe make For they good Lads in mallice cannot sleepe Within their brests they anger neuer keepe So to their sports they fresh againe doe fall As if they had not fallen out at all The good nature and disposition of Children For he to learne yet cannot well betake him But finding toyes sports sits down to lake him With Top and Top-stick and his Eldern-guns And neuer thinks of time how fast it runs And thus with such like lakings childish play He many times doth passe the time away Vntill his Tutor with an awfull hand Not sternely tho but with a mild command Makes him affect his booke not with a twig But with a Nut an Almond or a Fig. And hauing so the childs affection won He saith sweet Lad come and thy Horn-book con And so the A.B.C. he first is taught From that to spelling he is after brought And being right instructed for to spell He learn's his Sillables and Vowels well Then with due teaching he doth well consider By 's Masters rule how he may put together The Horn-booke hauing at his singers end Vnto the Primer he doth next ascend When his capacitie againe doth alter From that he goes into the holy Psalter Then next to that into the Booke of Bookes The sacred Bible modestly he lookes As in a glasse where he may plainely see Both what he is and what he ought to bee How that he was conceiu'd-and borne in sin Since his first breath to draw he did begin There he may see that he 's a mortall man Subiect to sin and hard resist it can There is a soueraigne salue most gratious sent To heale sick soules which truly doe repent There he may see that sin originall Came first from Eue and Adam by their fall Before the Masculine I here prefer The Feminine because she first diderr The woman with inticements did begin To draw old Father Adam vnto sin And since her first disease it still infects Vnto this day a number of her sects There he may see by the first Adams fall A second Adam did redeeme vs all With bis most dearest blood shed on the Crosse The greatest gratious blessing that e're was And as the Prouerbe old doth teach vs so We first must creepe before we well can goe So from the Horn-booke we must first incline Before we can attaine to things diuine Diuine or humaine or in what degree Of Art and knowledge what so e're it be And as the Bible is the well of preaching Euen so the Horn-booke is the ground of teaching Yet ●e not hold my argument so strong To doe the Accidence one iot of wrong A second worthy ground there is in truth Of learning apter for more able Youth But yet he cannot vnto this attaine Before the Horn booke doth direct him plaine By skill good will and times experience He enters straight into the Accedence There 's the true ground Gramarians ground vpon To clime vnto the Hill of * Vniuersity Hellicon To that they 'r brought with charge large expences To know their Monds their Cases their Tences By that th' ar learn'd to scan and proue a Verse And also how to Conster and to Perse Then with the Latin Abcee they begin And so from step to step more skill doe win Puriles next is vsde in Schollers making In which Youth gather profit by paines taking By viewing Cato there they may rehearse For good examples many a golden verse Ouids lasciuious booke in 's ●rt to loue Is good to reade but not so good to proue Tully for eloquence doth beare the bell For a sweet stile he doth the rest excell Corderus Dyalogues doth true relate Good presidents for youth to i●mitate Terence a worthy booke and ready meanes Timboulden boyes by acting of his Sceanes In Ouids Metamorphosis is had Diuers examples that are good and bad There Phaeton through pride did get a fall A goodly president for pride to all For he beyond his skill needs would assay That which turn'd quickly to his owne decay Acteon for his longing and his lust After chast Dyna was transformed
