Riassunto

Excerpt from Manipulus Vocabulorum: A Rhyming Dictionary of the English Language

The other work Of our author appears to have been very popular in its day. It was first published in the year 1587, and was reprinted in 1596, 1608, 1632, 1644, 1654, and 1664, and its title is A Right Profitable Books for all Disease, called the Pathway to Health. The preface is written in the same style as that to the Manipulus. The author defends himself from the blame attached to writing in the vulgar tongue, and at the same time sets up a plea for English. He charges those who think books should be written in hard or unknown lan guages, and thus hide the knowledge Of health from the people, as guilty Of malice exceeding damnable and devillish.
