[bound with:][.] Brevissima institutio seu ratio grammatices cognoscendae ad omnium puerorum utilitatem praescripta: quam solam regia majestas in omnibus scholis docendam praecepit. Additis subinde observationibus utilissimis . Oxford, Sheldonian Theatre, 1709. Two works in one volume, 8vo, I: pp. [78], [2 (blank)], copper engraving by M. Burghers of schoolchildren picking apples facing title, engraving by the same of Sheldonian Theatre to title; text in roman and blackletter; II: pp. [2], 206, woodcut arms of Oxford University to title; slight cockling; very good, clean copies in later calf panelled to style; small wormtrack to lower cover.Later editions (likely issued together) of two Latin grammars ascribed to the great grammarian and schoolmaster William Lily (1468?1522/1523).While named after Lily, 'Lily's grammar' is in fact a composite work, with contributions by John Colet, Thomas Robertson, and others. 'During the sixteenth century the grammar was subjected to slight modifications by practising schoolmasters, but its basic structure remained intact. It reigned supreme from 1540 to 1757, when a more extensively revised edition . was adopted as The Eton Latin Grammar under the title A Short Introduction to the Latin Tongue' (ODNB).'The influence of Lily's grammar was therefore further renewed, extending into the nineteenth century and beyond. The grammar's effect on English literature was equally great: Shakespeare's characters quote it verbatim, the dramatist John Lyly repeated lines from it, Ben Jonson adapted it, and Thomas Fuller complained of being beaten because of it' (ibid.).The title to the second work states that it alone was to be taught 'in all schools', by royal command; grammars such as these were thus a guaranteed income stream for those granted the right to publish them, in this case Oxford University Press.

While named after Lily, 'Lily's grammar' is in fact a composite work, with contributions by John Colet, Thomas Robertson and others. 'During the sixteenth century the grammar was subjected to slight modifications by practising schoolmasters, but its basic structure remained intact.

The grammar's effect on English literature was equally great: Shakespeare's characters quote it verbatim, the dramatist John Lyly repeated lines from it, Ben Jonson adapted it, and Thomas Fuller complained of being beaten because of it' (ODNB).Both works here were printed by Samuel Buckley (16741741), a noted linguist, and Thomas Longman (16991755), founder of the great publishing house. The imprint to the first work proudly boasts of their status as 'printers to the King's most excellent majesty, in Latin, Greek and Hebrew'. The handsome title-page border to A short introduction features representations of the seven liberal arts (grammar, dialectic, rhetoric, music, arithmetic, geometry, and astronomy). The woodcut to the last page shows schoolchildren gathering apples from a tree, their schoolbooks set aside on the ground. ESTC T175242 and T17866. Language: English.
