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
