The English school-master, teaching all his scholars, of what age soever, the most easie, short, and perfect order of distinct reading and true writing our English-tongue, that hath ever yet been known or published by any. And further also, teacheth a direct course, how any unskilfull person may easily both understand any hard English words, which they shall in the scriptures, sermons, or els-where hear or read: and also be made able to use the same aptly themselves; and generally whatsoever is necessary to be known for the English speech: so that the which hath this book only, needeth to buy no other to make him fit from his letters unto the grammar-school, ... especially for those that are ignorant in the Latine tongue. In the next page the school-master hangeth forth his table to the view of all beholders, setting forth some of the chief commodities of his profession. Devised for thy sake that wantest any part of this skill, by Edward Coote Master of the Free-school in St. Edmonds B
