Transcriber's Notes: This work was originally produced in 1630, only 26 years after Cawdrey's first English dictionary and more than a century before Johnson's. The spelling is, in many cases, strange to modern standards and highly variable. I have noted a small number of cases which would, I think, have been considered absurd by the original author. These have been amended to a more consonant form; all other spelling has been retained as the original. Some apparently incorrect or missing punctuation has been corrected. The reader should note that [~o] and [~e] have been used to represent the vowel superscribed by a tilde mark. This implies nasalization and should be read as indicating an omitted 'm' or 'n' following the vowel. The letters 'u' and 'v' are used largely interchangeably as also, though to a lesser extent, 'i' and 'j'. ATB.
