but if you add a Vowel to each of them, then they make by adding a to the first glad, e to the second Bless, i to the third sing, o to the fourth Lord u to the fifth Pluck.
A Consonant between two Vowels is usually joyned to the latter; as, be-fore, re-ward.
When a Consonant is doubled in the middle of a word, as, Ladder, Differ, one Letter is joyned to the first Syllable and the other to the latter, thus Lad-der, dif-fer.
And so it is also, if two Consonans come betwen two Vowels, as in sel-dom trm-pet, because ld, and mp are not proper to begin any word.
But if three Consonants which are proper to begin a word come between two Vowels, then the Consonants must not be separated, but must be joyned to the Vowel following, as con-strain-ed, not cons-trai-ned nor con-str-ained, because str are proper to begin a word.
These Consonants of two Letters may also begin wods, c r dr dw fl fr ga kn pl pa sc sh sl sp st sk sm sn sq sw th tr tw wh wr.
There are also Consonants of three Letters with which words may be begun, Scr phr str squ spr shr thr thw spl.
Dipthongs are proper or improper. The proper dipthongs are eight, ai, ei, oi, au, eu, ou, ee, oo,; The improper dipthongs are six, ay, ey, oy, aw, ew, ow; they differ not much in sound. but differ very much in writing; for the proper dipthongs are to be used in the beginning and middle, as in Giste,, fair, Air, either; but when you have the same sounds in the ending of a word, you must write ay, ey, oy, as prey, may, joy,
In the Alphabet of Letters here are some that have made these Observations.
That there are eight mute or dumb Letters. which are B. C. D. G. P. Q. T. because they are forced to borrow the Vowel E at the end, to help their sound.
There are eight Semi-vowels or half Vowels, namely F. L. M. N. R. S. X. Z. all which begin their sound with E, and end in themselves.
M. P. in his Vocal Organ distinguisheth the several Letters thus: B. f, m. p. ph. v. are Lip-Consonants. Ce.ch.ge.je.s.sh. z. are Teeth-Consonants. D.l.n.r.t.th. are Tongue-Consonants. C. g. k. q. x. are Palate-Consonants. Gh. h. ng. y. are Throat-Consonants.
It is observed by some, that there are Eighteen Diphthongs in our English Tongue as you may see in the words subjoyned, which words are most of them either derived from the Hebrew or have affinity with the Latin.
- aa. as in Paal, Isaac.
- ai. Fair, despair.
- au. Laud, applaud.
- ea. Ease, please.
- ee. Free, bleed.
- ei. Receive, weight,
- eo. Jeopardy, Geometry, George.
- eu. Rheume, Eustace.
- ie. Field, Friend.
- oa. Boat, Goal.
- oe. Toe, shoe, Phoenix, foelicity.
- oi. Void, join.
- oo. Good, food.
- ou. Bloud, gourd.
- ua. Guard, quake.
- ue. Guerdon.
- ui. Quire, build.
- uo. Quoth.
There are also these ten Triphthongs which contain three Vowels sounded together in one word, as eau, in Beauty; ieu, in lieue, adieu, view; nai in quail, acquaint; nee. in Queen; uea in queasic, squeak, quean; uoi, in quoit, quoif; aw, in Law, Bawd, Daw; ew, in Dew, new, stews; ow, in now, know, how.
The Lords Prayer.
Our Fa-ther, which art in Hea-ven, Hal-low-ed be thy Name; Thy King-dom come; Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Hea-ven; Give us this day our dai-ly Bread; and for-give us our Tres-pas-ses, as we for-give them that tres-pass a-gainst us; and lead us not into Tempta-ti-on; but de-li-ver us from e-vil: for thine is the Kingdom, Pow-er and Glory, for e-ver and e-ver, A-men.
The Creed or Chri-sti-an Be-lief.
I Be-lieve in God the Fa-ther Almigh-ty, Ma-ker of Hea-ven and Earth, and in Je-sus Christ his on-ly Son our Lord, who was con-ceiv-ed by the Ho-ly Ghost, born of the Vir-gin Ma-ry, suf-fe-red un-der Pon-ti-us Pi-late, was cru-ci-fi-ed, dead and bu-ri-ed; he de-scend-ed in-to Hell, the third day he a-rose a-gain from the dead, he a-scend-ed in-to Hea-ven, and sit-teth on the right hand of God the Fa-ther Al-migh-ty, from thence he shall come to judge both the quick and the dead; I be-lieve in the Ho-ly Ghost, the Ho-ly Ca-tho-lick Church, the Com-mu-ni-on of Saints, the for-giveness of Sins, the Re-sur-rec-ti-on of the Bo-dy, and the Life e-ver-last-ing. A-men.
The Ten Com-mand-ments.
ANd God spake these words, say-ing,
I am the Lord thy God which brought thee out of the Land of Epypt, out of the House of Bon-dage.
1. Thou shalt have no o-ther Gods be-fore me.
2. Thou shalt not make un-to thy self a-ny Gra-ven I-mage, or the like-ness of a-ny thing that is in Hea-ven a-bove, or that is in the Earth be-neath, or that is in the wa-ter un-der the Earth, thou shalt not bow down thy self to them, nor serve them; for I the Lord thy God am a jea-lous God, vi-si-ting the i-ni-quity of the Fa-thers u-pon their Chil-dren un-to the third and fourth ge-ne-ra-ti-on of them that hate me, and shew-ing mer-cy unto thou-sands of them that love me and keep my Com-mand-ments.
3. Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guilt-less that ta-keth his Name in vain.
4. Re-mem-ber the Sab-bath day to keep it ho-ly, six days shalt thou la-bour and do all thy work, but the seventh day is the Sab-bath of the Lord thy God, in it thou shalt not do a-ny work, Thou, nor thy Son, nor thy Daugh-ter, thy man-ser-vant, nor thy maid-ser-vant, nor thy Cat-tel, nor thy Stran-ger that is with-in thy gates; for in six days the Lord made Hea-ven and Earth, the Sea, and all that in them is, and rested the se-venth day; where-fore the Lord bles-sed the Sab-bath day and hal-low-ed it.
[Page 8]5. Honour thy Fa-ther and thy Mo-ther, that thy days may be long up-on the Land which the Lord thy God gi-veth thee.
6. Thou shalt not kill.
7. Thou shalt not com-mit A-dul-tery.
8. Thou shalt not steal.
9. Thou shalt not bear false wit-ness a-gainst thy Neigh-bour.
10. Thou shalt not co-vet thy Meigh-bours House, thou shalt not co-vet thy Neigh-bours Wife, nor his Man-servant, nor his Maid-ser-vant, nor his Ox, nor his Ass, nor any thing that is thy Neigh-bours.
Psalm 1.
BLes-sed is the Man that walk-eth not in the Counsel of the un-god-ly, nor stand-eth in the way of Sin-ners, nor sit-teth in the Seat of the scorn-ful.
But his de-light is in the Law of the Lord, and in his Law doth he me-di-tate Day and Night.
And he shall be like a Tree plant-ed by the Ri-vers of wa-ter, that bring-eth forth his fruit in his sea-son; his Leaf al-so shall not wi-ther, and what-so-e-ver he doth, shall pros-per.
The un-godly are not so, but are like the Chaff which the wind dri-veth a-way.
There-fore the un-god-ly shall not stand in the judge-ment; nor sin-ners in the Con-gre-ga-ti-on of the Righ-te-ous,
For the Lord know-eth the way of the Righ-te-ous, but the way of the un-god-ly shall pe-rish.

The first Epistle of Saint John, the second Chapter.
1. MY little Children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous.
2. And he is the Propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but for the sins of the whole world.
3. And hereby we know that we know him, if we keep his Commandments.
4. He that saith he knoweth him, and keepeth not his Commandments is a liar, and the Truth is not in him.
5. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected, hereby know we that we are in him.
6. He that saith he abideth in him; ought himself also to walk even as he walked.
7. Brethren I write no new Commandment unto you, but an old Commandment which ye had from the beginning; the old Commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning.
8. Again a new Commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him, and in you, because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth.
9. He that saith he is in the Light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.
[Page 11]10. He that loveth his brother abideth in the Light, and there is no occasion of stumbling in him.
11. But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.

Psalm 119
The Lamentation of David over Saul and Jonathan 2 Sam. 1 Chap. vers. 19.
There are several words that have some Letters in them that are not sounded or pronounced, and yet must be used when the same words are written.
AS A. in some words; as we pronounce Pharo, but must write Pharaoh, and so in Isaac, Canaan, &c.
B. in some, for we must write Dumb, thumb, lamb, womb, doubt, debt; but we pronounce them, dum, thum, lam, wom, dout, det, &c.
C. Written between a Vowel and K is not pronounced; as in black, check, sick, lock, truck, &c.
C. Written after s is not pronounced, as in descent, conscience, disciple, ascent, &c.
C. Before a, o, oo, commonly sounds like K: as cat, court, custome, colour, cook: but C before e, i, y, or ee, sounds like s: as censer, city, cider cypress, exceed, proceed.
Ch. in words purely English, have a peculiar sound with them, both before and after Vowels. Before a Vowel, in chance, cheap, chine, choke, churl: after a Vowel in ach, reach, rich, roch, such: But in words of a Hebrew or Greek derivation Ch sounds like K, as in Che-der-la-o-mer, A-chan, La chish, Mal-chus: and so also in the end of words: as Be-ro-dach, Mel-chi-ze-dech, An-ti-och, Baruch: but still except Ra-chel, Che-ru-bin, Ty-chi-cus: as also words compounded of Arch, as Arch-bi-shop, Ar-chi-tect.
D. is not pronounced in badge, hedge, bridge, lodge, judge, friend-ship, hand-maid, wed-nes-day.
E is usually written, but not pronounced in the end of a word, as in horse, breathe, virtue, and is usually added not so much for necessity as beauty: But you must always except some words of a foreign Derivation as E-pi-to-me, Jes-se, Ju-bi-le and others.
But e is never pronounced in the end of any English word but in these ye, me, be, we, he: But yet e is necessarily added to some words, or else it will alter the sence, as to write flaming fire, o must be added, lest it be taken for a fir tree: and so, It made me mad, e is useful, though not pronounced: and so in mile, quire, ride, fare, to distinguish them from mill, quit, rid, far: and so in others. Sometimes e is added at the end of a word to change the sound, as in face, grace, which without e, would sound as fac, grac: e softeneth the sound of g in age, stage, &c. It is usual when a word endeth in i, o, or u, to add e at the end, [Page 17] but it is indifferent whether it be added or omitted. When words end with a double Consonant they must not have an e after them, as hall, ball, call, wall, all, fall, &c.
If E be written at the end of a word after r, or l, it comes before them in the pronouncing: as able is pronounced abel, Temple, Tempel, nitre, niter, crackle, crackel.
G is not pronounced in sign, reign, flegm, design, assign, but yet must be written.
Gh is sounded like ff, in laugh, cough, enough, &c. G hath sometimes a hard sound, as in gain, gold, good, and sometimes a flat sound, as in Ginger, and therefore if a, o, or u, follow this flat sound, it must be written with I, as Joseph, Judith, James, not Goseph, Gudith, Games: but when the sound hath i next, it is written with G, as Ginger, but when E follows, it is to be written with I, except these words following gesture, gender, generation, gentility, geometry, genealogy, gem, gentil, and some proper names.
Gh is not often pronounced in any word, as light, bright might, right, they are sounded lite, brite, mite, rite: and so in high, Almighty, thigh, nigh, gh are not sounded.
H is written, but yet not sounded in many words, as Christ, Thomas, Rhetorick, Rheume, Scholar, scheme; but they are pronounced as Crist, Tomas, Retorick, Reume, Scolar, sceme: also the sound of H is lost at the end of some words, as Shiloh, Hezekiah, Isaiah, Jeremiah, and others.
I is not sounded in adieu, juice, fruit, Parliament, carriage, cousin fashion, &c.
I before r sounds like u, as thirst, third, fir, bird, thirty; and I Consonant before a Vowel is sounded as G, and written differently from an i vowel, as joy, judge, &c.
K seems not to be sounded in back, deck, sick, thick, rock, buck, pack, &c.
L sounds not in half, ealf, stalk, salve, alms, balm, salmon, falcon, Lincoln, Bristol, Holborn, folk: but l is always pronounced in ale, scale, gale, and others.
In words of one Syllable l is usually doubled, as ball, bell, bill, bull: but if a Consonant be added at the end, it loseth a Syllable, as shalt, wilt, &c. Words of above one Syllable end in a single l, as sinful, evil, &c.
N is not sounded in Solemn, condemn, Hymn, Autumn, contemn, column, &c. yet they must be written thus with an n at the end to shew their derivation from the Latin.
O is not pronounced in youth, damosel, courage, Gaoler, People, Jeopardy, scourge, nourish, young, &c.
P is not sounded in Tempt, Receipt, Symptom, Psalm, Simpson, Redemption, Sumptuous, &c.
Ph is sounded sometimes like F, as in Triumph, Phebe, Sulphur, Orphan, Philip, Philemon, &c. But if Ph be in two Syllables, then it is otherwise, as in Shep-herd, Clap-ham.
Q is always followed by u, whensoever it is written, although u add nothing to the sound thereof, as in Queen, quaker, quill, question, &c. Qu sounds like K in liquor, Exchequer, &c.
S is not sounded, but always written in Isle, Viscount, Island, &c. There is s long, and s short, and you must always write s long in the beginning and middle of words, as son soul, blossom, blessing; and s short in the ending, as Sisters, Sons, Mothers, Husbands, lands, &c. except into words that are alterable, viz. Nouns singular into plural, or verbs into another person, as cause, causes, disburse, disbursest, disburseth; also S so soundeth like Z in some words, as easy, bosome, &c.
Ti before a Vowel commonly sounds like si, as it patience, persecution, nation, Oration, &c. but if s go before it, then it is sounded as it is writ as in Question, Combustion, Bestial, or as it is in Titus; and so after the same manner you must pronounce those words that end in ty, as Crafty, Lofty, Pity, and so also loftier, loftiest.
V Consonant should differ from a Ʋ Vowel, and should be pronounced as value vain, vengeance, verily, vice, vine, voice, vultur, &c.
Ʋ Vowel is not sounded in guard, guest, guile, buy, build, conduit, circuit, &c. u is always joyn'd with Q, as Quail, quick, quiet, neither is u sounded in Saviour, Scrupulous, &c.
W after O is not sounded, as in grow, slow, yellow, shadow, widdow; nor in wretch, write, wrath, &c.
Y is not pronounced in Monkey, Key, Chimney, kidney, journey, pulley; if a word end in i we make it commonly y, as cry, reply, misery, mercy, &c.
S is pronounced like Z in some words, as lose, abuse, use, sins, Sons, &c.
Now though there may be reason for many of these superfluous Letters, because they shew from whence the words are derived, yet it might be wisht they were written as they are spoken, which would make it easier both to strangers and our selves also. There is a brief Table at the end to shew you the difference that there is in writing and pronouncing many words.

Some Copies Alphabetical for Youth to write out.
Of Great Letters.
GReat Letters, or Capitals, are of use, either to begin Sentences or proper Names, or else of some things that are remarkable. And sometimes some very remarkable sentences are written all in Capitals, as in Zachary, HOLINESS TO THE LORD. In Jeremiah, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. In Revelations, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS; and so in several other places: They do also serve to begin Titles of Books, as THE HOLY BIBLE, or THE NEW TESTAMENT; or to Divine Books, as THE SECOND BOOK OF KINGS.
Capital Letters begin Sentences; as, Our Father which art in Heaven, &c. and, I believe in God the Father, &c.
As also proper names of Men, as Adam, Moses, David, Jesus, Peter, Paul, John, Matthew, Luke, Charles, James, Jupiter, Mars, Apollo, Bacchus, &c.
Great Letters are also used in noting the proper names of Countries, Cities, Towns, Arts, Sciences, Dignities, Offices, Days, [Page 108] Months, Winds, Places, Rivers, as for example, Asia, Africa, Europe, America, England, Scotland, Ireland, France, Spain, Holland, Germany, Paris, Vienna, Madrid, Amsterdam, Constantinopole, Rome, Windsor, Dunkirk, Calis, Printer, Weaver, Astronomy, Grammer, Musick, Rhetorick, Logick, Arithmetick, King, Queen, Prince, Parliament, Pope, Cardinal, Duke, Earl, Lord, Knight, Esquire, Bishop, Dean, Prebend, Doctor, Parson, Vicar, Ambassador, Treasurer, Agent, General, Colonel, Captain, Lieutenant, Ensign, Munday, Tuesday, January, February, Christmas, Easter, Whitsuntide, Lent, North, South, East, West, White-Hall, Hampton, Greenwich, Thames, Severn, Tyber, Po.
And every Book, Chapter, Section, and Paragraph, must begin with a great Letter, as also after every period or full stop.
Also when the words of another are quoted, they ought to begin with a great Letter, as Gen. 42.32. And the man, the Lord of the Countrey said unto us, Hereby shall I know that you are true men, &c.
Also in Poetry every line is usually begun with a great Letter, though the former line ended in the middle of a sentence, as,
The Figures and Letters whereby Numbers are exprest, are these;
- 1 one I.

- 7 seven VII.
- 8 eight VIII.

- 13 thirteen XIII.
- 14 fourteen XIV.

- [Page 109]19 nineteen XIX
- 20 twenty XX
- 30 thirty XXX
- 40 forty XL

- 1000000 then hundred thousand or a Million (roman 1000000)
- 1677 one thousand six hundred seventy seven MDCLXXVII.
Note that the lesser number set before, takes away so much as it self is, from the greater, but being set after, adds so much to it, as IV makes four, but VI six; IX nine, but XI eleven.
If you would express one and a half, or two and a half, it must be thus: 1 ½ 2 ½ Two and three qearters thus: 2 ¾
Having learned to know the figures and marks whereby numbers are exprest, the next thing that is necessary is, how to make use of them in the way of Trade, or business, to which end we must know all numbers are exprest by these Characters, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0. Which last Cipher signifies nothing of it self but serves to fill up the number of places: and therefore every Figure hath a double value, one single and certain, and the other uncertain according as it is placed.
Now because it is not intended to give you a body of Arithmetick, I shall only shew how to cast up a small sum, as suppose you have received
l | s | d | |
Of one man | 0 | 1 | 6 |
Of another | 0 | 2 | 3 |
Of another | 1 | 3 | 2 |
Of another | 0 | 9 | 8 |
Of another | 3 | 7 | 11 |
Of another | 2 | 4 | 2 |
[Page] If you would know what all these Sums amount to, you must do thus: go to the outmost row of figures on the right hand, and say,
2 and 11 is 13, then make a point against 11, and carry one to the next, and say, 1 I carried, and 8 is 9, and 2 is 11, and 3 is 14; then make another point at 3, and carry 2, and say, 2 and 6 is 8, which 8 set down at the bottom under the said figures, and say, 2 I carry from the pence, and 4 is 6, and 7 is 13, and 9 is 22, put a point at 9, and carry 2, and say, 2 and 3 is 5, and 2 is 7, and 1 is 8, which 8 put under this row; then go to the next row, and say, 1 pound I carry and 2 is 3, and 3 is 6, and 1 is 7: which put underneath, and then the Sum appears thus:
l | s | d |
0 | 1 | 6 |
0 | 2 | 3 |
1 | 3 | 2 |
0 | 9 | 8 |
3 | 7 | 11 |
2 | 4 | 2 |
7 | 8 | 8 |

So that the year contains 365 days, and six hours, but the six hours are not reckoned, but only every fourth year, and then a day is added to February, which then contains 29 days, and that year is called Leap-year, and contains 366 days.
The Four Quarter days in the year are March 25. called Lady-day, June 24. called Midsummer-day, September 29. called Michaelmas-day, December 25. called Christmas.
The Countrymen do also sometimes divide the year into four other Quarters, that is Feb. 2. called Candlemas-day, May 1. called May-day, August 1. called Lammas, Nov. 1. called All-Saints-day.

Some brief Common Sentences in Latin and English for the use of young Scholars.
The Scholars Prayer for Morning.
MOst holy and eternal Lord, I thy most poor and unworthy Creature, do give thee most humble and hearty thanks, that it hath pleased thy great goodness to preserve me this Night past, as well from all my enemies, as from all other casualties and dangers that poor mortal creatures are subject to, and that thou hast given me sweet and pleasant sleep, that I find my body refreshed and comforted for performing the duties of this day. It is thou that hast said, if any man want wisdom, let him ask it of God that giveth to all men liberally, and reproacheth no man, and it shall be given unto him. I beseech thee, breath into my soul the spirit of understanding, that in my Child-hood I may learn, and as I grow further in years, I may practise the study of those things only that are agreeable to thy Laws: grant that I may always carefully seek for the Pearls of true knowledge; pour into me thy holy Spirit, that all my travel and pains being blest in study by thee, I may be thankful to thee. O loving Father, be thou my School-Master to instruct me, and when I have attained to some measure of gifts, let me not be proud in mine own conceit, but carry my self humbly, knowing I have nothing but what I have received. Bless my dear Parents, my Kindred and Friends, and grant that I may live so in this world to thy honour, that I may be a comfort to them, and may at last inherit the Kingdom prepared for all those that love thee, through Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. Amen.
A Prayer for the Evening.
GRacious Lord God, and heavenly Father, I cannot cease, but I must cry unto thee for mercy, because my sins cry out against me for Justice: how shall I address my self to thee, but with the Publican I must stand and admire thy goodness toward me, in that thou hast kept me this day past from being consumed, or brought to nought: for Lord, what is man, or the Son of man thou regardest him! for the more days pass over my head, the more sins and iniquities I heap up against thee. O blessed Father, let thy Sons Blood wash me and cleanse me from all my impurities, and from all the stains of sin that are upon me, own me as thy Child, and shadow me with thy wings, that I may [Page 120] safely take my rest in thy protection this night, that I may behold the next day with comfort, and may serve in it, and endeavout to grow up more and more in learning and true knowledge. Bless my Parents, Kindred, Friends and Relations; and grant that when they and I have past our Pilgrimage here, we may all attain to thy heavenly Kingdome: and all I beg in the name of Jesus Christ, in whose most holy words I further pray, Our Father, &c.
