[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.

'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.
