A84028	The English schole-master or certaine rules and helpes whereby the natives of the Netherlandes, may bee, in a short time, taught to read, understand, and speake, the English tongue. By the helpe whereof, the English also may be better instructed in the knowledge of the Dutch tongue, than by any vocabulars, or other Dutch and English books, which hitherto they have had, for that purpose.		1646 (1646)	Wing E3117; ESTC R230993	157,968	418

take your speech none otherwise but to the purpose My father truly doth not compel me but I perceave wel enough by his countenance and words that it pleaseth him very well V Namely that is becaus your father being a very prudent man knoweth well that liberall wits will not bee compelled but wil be easily led But yet I doubt not but that it happeneth by the instinct of Gods Spirit But what doe you think T I am of the same mynd espetially sith that I am bent therto of myne own accord V It is a great argument that that counsell is of God T I believe that for they who are compelled to that thing by their parents doe for the most part seek refuges excuses by which they may avoyd the command V To speak the truth I have found it sometimes in my selfe namely before I entred therin For what thinkest thou I heard of those slaves of Sathan so many evil speeches what of the master what of the discipline that mee thoughts I rather went into a prison or a bakehous than into a schoole If you also should fal into such a plague it is no marvail if hee doe with hands and feet and al his power attempt to terrify you from so holy a purpose T I have not yet made it known to any body V what you say to me is not to make it knowne T I know it wel enough but that happened to mee out of Terence let us now proceed to the things which remaine V What remayneth but that you pray to God and that you goe forth manfully with your purpose T You shall heare of your daily dyet at your table of the familiarity of the master and ussher in hearing the repetition of the lessons of the masters gentlenes while wee are eating togither of that friendly strife of the learning after supper of the freedome of speaking of honest things when there is leasure time of the free reproofe which is among you I say of all these things you have told mee enough at an other time all which pleas me very well yet me thinks there is nothing more profitable than that continuall exercise of speaking latin For what greater fruit is there of study what more honest what more pleasant espetially where one doth freely reprove another without hatred or envy V What is in that that the conquered in the strife of those things are only punished with shame and the conquerours rewarded with a pr●ze T In a word all your exercises doe delight mee marvelously by the very hearing of them V How much more would you say that if you saw those things if you were present when they are don T I will God willing bee present V would to God it might bee shortly T I hope so truly But there remaines one scruple whereof you can easily free me if you will V I will doe it in good truth if I am able but in the mean time take b●ed that you bee not too inquisitive as wee have heretofore seen in Terence Goe to tell mee at length what that difficulty is T I have evill thoughts of your Scholastical discipline not that I will therefore desist from my begun work but that when I have heard of that matter I may come the more cheerfully and pleasantly V Vnles you were one who as I know esteeme me neither vaine nor a lyar I would verely bee rather wholy silent of that than tell those things to you which I conceave T why so V Becaus it is difficult to make those things seem true albeit they are otherwise very true so long as the Common people speak and judge very evill things of them T why so I pray V For by the lyes of the ungodly our discipline soundeth so ill among those idiots that it is a wonder that any one will dwell in our schoole Nevertheles which is the work of God how worse name wee have so many the more come to us T There is no need of so long an introduction Tell mee all things plainly and feare not you shal not terrifie mee I have understood all things and pondered them in my mynd before V Attend therfore I wil breifly tell all that seems to bee of any worth First I would that you did perswade your self this that the master is much more courteous to us than in the schoole bee maketh shew of before us For he converseth so familiarly with us as a wise father useth to doe among his children But you will say then why is he so severe in publike I answer becaus that without such a severity as I have heard from himself when he once told it to a good friend so great an heap of schollers endued with so many different fashions can neither be kept under nor held to their bounden duty for every one would live after his own fashion after his own mynd T Besides that I have by my self often admired that there is in the Schoole such great reverence so great silence lastly so great modesty V You would wonder much more if you had ever seen the Country schooles T I have seen them sometimes and have dil●gently considered them There is more quietnes in our schoole of sixe hundred than of fourty children yea thirty in those petty schooles But goe forward I pray thee I feare that you will bee an Asian Oratour for your speech begins already to digres too far V But you doe interrupt my speech your self T I have spoken nothing besides the purpose but goe on now V Shall I tell you in a word This domesticall discipline although it seems odious to a few ungodly ones yet it very well liketh the good and diligent children for the profits sake For if our matters were loose at home what should we have then against the assaults of those wanton and saucie fellows what rest should we have what stilnes of our studies Therefore the discipline it self is to the true lovers of study a refuge as it were a bulwark none otherwise than as an haven is to seamen in a storme To conclude whosoever among us is peaceable alwaies ready to doe well he is preserved by the discipline For the master doth not busy himself to draw us by stripes to the study of learning but he rather indeavoureth to bring us therto most chiefly by these things by an honest and new entertaynment by good wil Courtesie and gentlenes of manners by benefits and lastly by the love of virtue and learning whence it comes to pas that the greatest part of us are so affected that we study how to obey him heartily T Otherwise yee would not discharge the bounden duty of schollers V But there are some knaves who fear neither God nor their parents nor stripes who doe also hate study worse than a dog and snake that I may use the words of Horace Against such I say severe discipline is some times used namely becaus necessity constraineth T I have enough For now I see to

henceforth walke not like as the other gentiles walke in the vanity of their minde darkened in the understanding being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them becaus of the hardnes of their hearts who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousnes to work all uncleannes with greedines But ye have not so learned Christ if so bee yee have but heard him and are taught by him as the truth is in Iesus To wit that yee should put off concerning the former conversation the old man which is corrupt through the lusts of deceitfulnes and that you should bee renewed in the spirit of your minde and put on the new man which after God is created in true righteousnesse and holynes Wherfore put away lying and speak the truth every man with his neighbour For we are members one of another Be ye angry and sin not let not the sun goe down upon your w●ath neither give place to the devill Let him that hath stolen steale no more but rather labour working with his hands the thing which is good that he may have to distribute to him that hath need Let no filthy communication proceed out of your mouth but if there be any good communication to profitable edification that it may give grace to them that beare it And grieve not the holy Spirit of God by whom yee are sealed unto the day of redemption Let all bitternes and wrath and anger and clamour and evill speaking bee put away from you withall malice But be ye kind one to another mercifull forgiveing one another even as also God in Christ hath forgiven you Bee yee therefore followers of God as deare children and walke in love even as Christ also hath loved us and hath given himself up for us for an offerring and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour But fornication and al uncleannes or covetousnes let it not be once named among you as it becometh Saints neither filthynes nor foolish talking or jesting which are not comely but rather giving of thankes For this you know that no whoremonger or unclean person or covetous man Who is an Idolater hath inheritaunce in the kingdome of Christ and of God That no man deceave you with vaine words for becaus of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience Be not ye therfore partakers with them For yee were sometimes darknes but now are yee light in the Lord walke as children of light For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodnes and righteousnes and truth Proveing what is acceptable unto the Lord. And have no fellowship with the vnfruitful workes of darknes but much rather also reprove them For it is even shamefull to speak of those things which are don of them in secret But al these things being reproved of the light are made manifest For whatsoever doth make manifest is light Therfore he saith Awake thou that sleepest and arise from the dead and Christ shall give thee light See then thae ye walke circumspectly not as fools but as wise redeeming the time becaus the dayes are evill wherfore bee yee not without understanding but understand what the will of the Lord is And be not drunk with wine wherein is excesse but be filled with the Spirit Speaking among your selves with psalmes and hymnes and spirituall songs singing and making melodie to the Lord in your heart giving thankes alwayes for al things to God and the father in the name of our Lord Iesus Christ being subject one to another in the feare of God Yee wives be subject to your owne husbands as unto the Lord For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church and hee is the saviour of the body Therfore as the Church is subject unto Christ so also ●e● the wives bee to th ir owne husbands in every thing Ye husbands love your owne w●ves even as Christ also hath loved the Church and hath given up himself for her that hee might sanctifie it having cleansed her with the washing o● wa●er by the word toa● he might present it to himself gloriou●● a church which hath no spot or wrinckle or any such thing but that shee should be ho●y and v●●t proveable So are men bound to love their owne wives as their owne bodies He that loveth his owne wife loveth himself For no man ha h yet ever bated his owne flesh but hee nourishe●h and cherrisheth it even as also the Lord the church For we are members of his body of his flesh and of his bones Therefore shal a man leave his father and mother and shall cleave to h s Wi●e and they two shal be one flesh This mysterie is great but I speake this having respect unto Christ and unto the church Therfore also let every one of you in particuler so love his wife as himselfe and the wife see that she reverence her husband Ye children be obedient to your parents in the Lord for that is right Honour thy father and mother which is the first commandement with a promise that it may goe well with thee and that thou mayst live long upon the earth And ye fathers provoke not your children to wrath but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Ye servants bee obedient unto your Masters according to the flesh with feare and trembling in singlenes of your heart as unto Christ not according to eye-service as men pleasers but as servants of Christ doeing the will of God from the heart with good will doeing service to the Lord and not to men knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doth the same shall hee receave of the Lord whither he be bond or free And ye Masters doe the same things to them forbearing threatening as knowing that also your Master is in heaven and that no respect of persons is with him Furthermore my brethren bee strong in the Lord and in the power of his might Put on the whole armour of God that you may stand against the crafty wiles of the devil For we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities against powers against the rulers of the world of the darknes of this world against Spirituall wickednesses in the aire Therefore take on the whole armour of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day and having finished all to abide standing Stand therfore having your loynes girt about with truth and having put on the breast plate of righteousnes and having your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace Above all having taken on the shield of faith wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God praying alwaies with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all Saints And for me
