table and renowned for knowledge in Philosophie. And there
were other inferior Schooles also. Upon Festiuall daies the
Maisters made solemne meetinges
Schollers disputed Logically and demonstratiuely, as he termeth
it: some bringing Enthimems, other perfect Sillogismes, some
disputed for shew, others to trace out the truth: cunning Sophi
sters were thought braue Schollers, when they flowed with
wordes: Others vsed Fallaxes: Rethoritians spake aptly to per
swade, obseruing the precepts of arte, and omitting nothing that
might serue their purpose: the boies of diuers Schooles
potte verses, and contended of the principles of Grammar: there
were some, which on the other side with Epigrams and Rymes,
nipping and quipping their fellowes, and the faultes of others,
though suppressing their names, moued thereby, much laughter
among their Auditors: hitherto out of Fitzstephen for Schooles
and Schollers, and for their exercises in the Citie, in his dayes,
Sithence the which time, as to me it seemeth, by the increase of
Colledges and Studients in the Uniuersities of Oxforde and
lers in the Citie as had beene accustomed hath much decreased.

Cambridge, the frequenting of Schooles and
exercises of Schollers in the Citie as had beene accustomed hath much decreased.
The three principall Churches, which had these famous
Schooles by priuiledges must needes be at the Cathedrall Church
of S. Paule for one, seeing that by a generall Councell holden in
the yeare of Christ, 1.176. at Rome, in the Patriarchie of Lata
rane, it was decreede that euery Cathedrall Church should haue
his Schoolemaister to teach poore Schollers
beene accustomed, and that no man shoulde take any reward for
licence to teach. The second as most ancient may seeme to haue
been the Monasterie of S. Peter at VVestminster, whereof Iu
gulphus (Abbote of Crowland in the raign of William the Con
queror writeth thus:) I Iugulphus an humble seruant of God
borne of English parentes, in the most beutifull Citie of
London, for to attaine to learning, was first put to VVest
minster and after to study at Oxforde, &c. And writing in
praise of Queene Edgitha, wife to Edwarde the Confessor,
I haue seene her, saith hee, often when being but a boy, I
came to see my father dwelling in the Kinges courte, and of
ten comming from Schoole, when I met her, she would oppose
me, touching my learning, and lesson, & falling from Gram
mar to Logicke, wherein she had some knowledge, she would
subtilly conclude an argument with mee, and by her hande
maiden giue me 3. or 4. peeces of money, and send me vnto
the Palace where I should receiue some victuals, and then
be dismissed.

The third Schoole seemeth to haue beene at the Monasterie of
S. Sauiour at Barmondsey in Southwark: for other Priories, as
of S. Iohn by Smithfielde, S. Bartlemew, in Smithfielde. S.
Marie Ouery in Southwarke, and that of the Holy Trinity by
Aldgate, were all of later foundation, and the Friories, Collea
ges, and Hospitals in this Citie, were raised since them, in the
raignes of Henry the 3, Edward the 1. 2. and 3. &c. Al which hou
ses had their Schooles, though not so famous as these first named.

Former Student Contributors
We’d also like to acknowledge students who contributed to MoEML’s intranet predecessor at the University of Windsor between 1999 and 2003. When we redeveloped MoEML for the Internet in 2006, we were not able to include all of the student projects that had been written for courses in Shakespeare, Renaissance Drama, and/or Writing Hypertext. Nonetheless, these students contributed materially to the conceptual development of the project.
