Book Description
Excerpt from The Babees' Book: Medieval Manners for the Young And so, young babies, my book is only for your instruction; wherefore I pray that no man reprehend it, but amend it where it is at fault, and judge it not, for your own sake. I seek no other reward but that it may please men and give you some ease in learn ing. Also, sweet children, if there be in it any word that ye ken not, Speer while ye may, and when ye know it, bear it in mind; and so by asking you may learn of wise men. Also, think not too strangely that my pen writes in this metre; for such verse is com mouly used, therefore take heed.
