antea mandaverat) Pandulphi Colenneii Apologos librum ipsa vel materiâ vel artificio valde spectabilem (habebat enim margaritis affabrè contextum tegmen) ex ipsius dono non sine illustri præfatione perhonorifice Principi commendavit. Ejus exemplo permotus Richardus Worsleius Armigeri e Vectanâ insulâ hæres filius, libellum exoticarum linguarum versibus eleganter exaratuin dono dedit, et Edvardus Chalonerus duo insignium Chirothecarum paria pro Universi Collegii voto, principali sublimitati obtulit. Cæteroque satellitum et ministrorum cœtui, ita elargitum est aliquid Collegium, ut benigne humaniterque se acceptos fuisse haud quisquam dissimularet dicere. Quod nisi temporis angustiis exclusi fuissent, non defuerunt, qui in utraque philosophia certamen et pugnam exhibuissent, qui rem scenicam et fabulas repræsentassent, denique qui spectacula etiam ad manum (quod dicitur) habebant, quæ si otium fuisset in gratiam Principis Optimi dedissent. Venerat jam dies ille Veneris ab adventu Principis quartus, in quo Jacobus (post homines natos doctiss. idem et clementissimus REX) quasi haud satis gloriæ aut decoris Collegio foret, ut princeps filius modò inviseret, præsens illustrare ipse non est gravatus. Duglassius Castellioneius e sodalibus unus, orator bonus, verbis et Collegii nomine Regem advenientem officiosissimè salutavit. Henricus Hawardus Comes Northamptonius, bonarum artium et literarum cultor, et admirator summus, cum reliquis magnatibus unà advenerat. Aream Col legii et fabricam Rex undique circumspexit, bibliothecam diligenter perlustravit, Et hic (inquit) illi sunt (simul authores vetustate pene et senio confectos digito demonstravit) ex quibus contra hæreses et malè jactas in causâ religionis opiniones pugnare oportet. Dextro tum prehenso Regis brachio Northamptonius, illum per gradus in claustra deducebat, qui inter abeundum Magdalenenses et studiosos omnes clara voce sic compellavit, Bene valete, generosi. Expectet fortasse jam aliquis, ut quo animo hospitium hoc sibi totique Aulicorum suorum multitudini in Collegio præbitum princeps serenissimus exceperit, aut quid Rex postea dixerit, narrrare nunc incipiam; cæterum id prolixe satis loquuntur literæ a Dño Thomâ Chalonero post discessum ad Præsidem obligatæ, quarum ad intuendum perlegendumque exemplar fide optimâ hic subjeci.

It appears out of the author's recollection, that in page 134 he mentioned the Alien Priory of Sele as being granted to Waynflete. Or did he consider its being made denizen prior to the grant, as exempting it from being included in the number? 191, line 9. In page 171 it is stated, ten pounds was the salary allowed by Waynflete to the schoolmaster; which was the sum allotted him independent of any usher, to whom a stipend of five pounds was assigned. 215, line 3, for Ed- read Edward.
