Vpon Festivall dayes,
solemne meetings in the Churches, where
their Schollers disputed Logically and de
monstratively: some bringing Enthimems,
other, perfect Syllogismes: some disputed
for shew; others to trace out the truth; and
cunning Sophisters were brave scholars,
when they flowed with words. Others used
fallacies: Rhetoricians spake aptly to per
swade, observing the precepts of Art, and
omitting nothing that might serve their pur
pose. The Boyes of divers Schooles did cap
or pot verses, and contended of the princi
ples of Grammar.

Hitherto Fitzstephen, for schooles and
scholars, and for their exercise in the
Citie in his dayes,: sithence the which
time, as to me it seemeth, by increase of
Colledges of students in the Vniversi
ties of Oxford and Cambridge, the fre
quenting of schooles, and exercises of
scholars in the Citie, as had beene ac
customed, very much decreased.

The three principall Churches which
had these famous schooles by priviled
ges, must needs be the cathedral Church
of S. Paul for one: seeing that by a gene
rall Councell, holden in the yeere 1176.
at Rome, in the Patriarchie of Laterane,
it was decreed, that every Cathedrall
Church should have his schoolemaster,
to teach poore schollers, and others, as
had bin accustomed, and that no man
should take any reward for licence to
teach. The second, as most ancient, may
seeme to have beene the Monasterie of
S. Peters at Westminster, whereof Ingul
phus, Abbot of Crowland, in the reigne
of William the Conqueror, writeth thus:
1 Jngulphus, an humble servant of God,
borne of English parents, in the most beau
tifull Citie of London,
learning, was first put to Westm. & after
to study at Oxford, &c. And writing in
praise of Queene Agitha, wife to Ed
ward the Confessor: I have seene (saith
he) often, when being but a Boy, I came to
see my Father, dwelling in the Kings Court,
and often comming from Schoole, when I
met the Queene, she would oppose me tou
ching my learning and lesson. And falling
from Grammar to Logicke, wherein she had
some knowledge, she would subtilly conclude
an Argument with me. And by her hand

should receive some victuals, and then bee

The third Schoole seemeth to have
beene in the Monastery of S. Saviour, at
Bermondsey in Southwarke. For other
Priories, as of Saint Iohn by Smithfield,
Saint Bartholomew in Smithfield, Saint
Mary Overie in Southwarke, and that of
the Holy Trinity by Ealdgate, were all
of later foundation, and the Friers Col
ledges, and Hospitals in this Citie, were
raised since them, in the reignes of Hen

But touching Schooles more lately
advanced in this Citie, I read, that King
Henry the fifth, having suppressed the
Priories Aliens,
bout London, namely, Our Lady of Roun
civall by Charing-Crosse: one other Ho
spitall in Oldborne: one other without
Creplegate; and the fourth without Al
dersgate: besides other that are now
worne out of memory, and whereof
there is no monument remaining, more
than Rouncivall, converted to a Brother
hood, which continued till the reigne
of Henry the eighth, or Edward the 6.
This, I say, and other of their Schooles,
being broken up and ceased, King Henry
the 6. in the 24. of his reigne,
tent appointed, that there should be in
London Grammar-Schooles, besides S.
Pauls, at S. Martins le grand, S. Mary le
Bow, in Cheap, S. Dunstans in the west,
and S. Anthonies. And in the next yeere,
to wit, 1394.2 the said King ordained
by Parliament,
mer-Schooles should be erected, to wit,
in the Parishes of Saint Andrew in Old
borne, Alhallowes the great, in Thames
street,
Saint Peters upon Cornhill, and in
the Hospitall of Saint Thomas of Acons
in west Cheape. Since the which time,

As for the meeting of Schoolemasters
on festivall dayes, at festivall Churches,
and the disputing of their schollers Lo
gically, &c. whereof I have before spo
ken, the same was long since disconti
nued. But the arguing of schoole-boies
about the principles of Grammar, hath
beene continued even till our time: for
I my selfe (in my youth) have yeerely
seene, on the Eve of Saint Bartholomew
the Apostle,3 the schollers of divers
Grammar-schooles,
Churchyard of Saint Bartholomew the
Priory in Smithfield, where, upon a banke
boorded about under a Tree, some one
scholar hath stepped up, and there hath
apposed and answered, till he were by
some better scholler overcome and
put downe. And then the overcommer
taking the place, did like as the first:
and in the end, the best opposers and
answerers had rewards, which I obser
ved not: but it made both good schoole
masters, and also good scholars (dili
gently against such times) to prepare
themselves for the obtaining of this
Garland.

Neverthelesse, howsoever the incou

meeting with them of Saint Anthonies,
would call them Saint Anthonies Pigs,
and they againe would call the other
Pigeons of Pauls;
ons were bred in Pauls Church, and S.

former usage, did for a long season, dis

another, with Salve tu quoque, placet tibi

ding from this to questions in Gram

many times in great heaps, that they
troubled the streets and passengers: so
that finally they were restrained with

Out of this Schoole have sprung di
vers famous persons, whereof although
time hath buried the names of many,
yet in mine owne remembrance may be
numbred these following: Sir Thomas
Moore, Knight, Lord Chancellour of
England: Doctor Nicholas Heath, some
time Bishop of Rochester, after of Wor
cester, and lastly, Archbishop of Yorke,
and Lord Chancellour of England:
Doctor Iohn Whitgift, Bishop of Worce

there was also begun a Mathematicall

other parts of that Hall, being imploy

ceased any more to be read, and was

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.
