Printer's name from STC. Dedication is signed: Iohn Brinsley. Reproduction of the original in the Bodleian Library. Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford. Re-processed by University of Nebraska-Lincoln and Northwestern, with changes to facilitate morpho-syntactic tagging. Gap elements of known extent have been transformed into placeholder characters or elements to simplify the filling in of gaps by user contributors. EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO. EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org). The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source. Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data. Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so. Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor. The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines. Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).

AT LONDON , Printed by H. L. for Thomas Man , 1612. TO THE NOble and hopefull yong Lord , Ferdinando , Lord Hastings , son and heire apparant of the right Honourable , the Earle of Huntingdon . TO promise , is the easiest matter of all other , right Noble Lord : but in things of moment all the difficulty is in performance . How I haue ingaged my selfe to your most honourable Parents , by publike acknowledgement of the bond of my duety , for their many fauours , and by protestation of my desire euer to witnesse my thankfulnesse , in seeking the aduancement of them and their Noble house , it is well knowen to all . Can I then be blamed , if I studie to performe that vnto their worthy progeny , which I cannot to their Honours otherwise ? That as your Lordshippe , with all the Noble offspring of their most renowned family do excell in birth , so you may in all singular learning , wherein true Nobility doth chiefly consist , and whereby you may be admired and honored of all . When Nobility hath all parts of rare wisedome to gouerne it , then is it as the goodliest ship , hauing winde at will , vnder the rule of a skilfull maister , so as it shall euer saile safely , in the middest of most perilous rocks and boysterous stormes . To this ende this hath been my first desire towards your Lordship , that the entry to all good learning may be most easie vnto you , and full of all sweet delight . Though all my schoole labours be yours in this respect , that they haue beene of later yeers , more specially intended for your Lordship aboue others , and proceeded in principally by the fauour of my Honourable Lord ; yet heerin I haue thought it most fit to signifie this duty . Because , howsoeuer it be the least of all my indeauours for your Lordship , yet it is for your entrance into your Latine studies , and the first of those Grammaticall translations , whereof I haue conceiued an vndoubted hope of a perpetuall benefit to come to all Schooles and good learning by them : by setting all the younger sort in the high way , and guiding them by the hand , to goe through all their first vsuall Authors with certainty and double fruit , and that almost in one halfe of the time , which is ordinarily spent in them ; as I trust experience shall prooue to all , and this little book shall giue sufficient tryall . So that your Lordship may haue passed all the difficulty of learning , before you haue felt what any paynes of learning doe meane : and that , that part which hath been wont to be the discouragement of the little ones , may be made vnto them the pleasantest of all ; to their exceeding ioy , with the comfort of all both parents and instructours . Also for the little booke it selfe , which I haue thus made choyse of , to shew the first triall in , according as it was gathered of purpose , for the first enterers into Latin , although it bee small in quantity , yet the worth of it truely knowen , and it rightly vsed , shal be found aboue the weight in the finest gold ; for that there are contained in it , so many wise sentences of most learned men , as shall at the very first giue your Lordship a true taste of all kinde of that wisedome , which shall so much adorne you , and also furnish you with words to expresse the same . Which , after that you are once perfect in the first grounds of Grammar ( as you may soon be , by the plaine direction which I haue laboured to prepare for you , in my questions called the Posing of the Accidence and Grammar ) by the help of this translation , and your oft reading the sentences out of it , you shall haue both matter and phrase to flowe into your remembrance , without either toyling of your minde , or ouercharging of your memory at all . For the manner of the vse hereof , and the rest of this kinde , that your Lordship may reape the benefit of them , and of all my trauells for you , I referre your director vnto that which I haue written in my Grammar-Schoole . These first fruits of my most dutifull affections , being accepted according to my entirest desire towardes your lasting honour , I haue iust cause to hope that by that time that your Lordship shall bee meete to proceede to higher studies , the Lord who hath thus begun , will make all the way to the toppe of all excellent knowledge , as sure , ready , and full of all pleasant allurement vnto you , as euer Noble personage did knowe before . Vntill which time , I shall not faile thorough his gratious assistance , to prosecute the worke by a continued inquiry of all the learnedst and best experienced , of this present , and all ages past ; nor yet to haue vndoubted assurance , of whatsoeuer I shall commend vnto your Lordship . If this dedication shall seeme strange vnto any , by reason of your Lordships tender yeeres , this will bee my iust defence : that as God gaue this speciall experiment of translating Grammatically , and of the benefits thereof together with you , so far forth as I know ▪ so my hope is that it shall growe vp with you , and come to maturity by that time that your Lordship shall be able to iudge of it , by your own experience . In the meane while I shall not be wanting to striue with God by prayer , that he may so blesse you with your hopeful Brother , and all other allied to your Noble house , and to fit you for the best studies , that you may adde to the renowne of all your famous progenitors , & propagate an euerlasting augmentation of all vertue and honour to all that euer succeed you , and be lights to all other of true nobility . Your Lordships , in all study , and dutifull affection , IOHN BRINSLEY .

By the helpe of these translations , any who haue lost the knowledge of the Latin , maie some recour it ; and they who haue but a taste ( if they bee of vnderstanding ) may very much increase , and goe forward of themselues .
