The Author to the Reader.
BEcause amongst other mine Authors I have
oftentimes alleaged Fitz-Stephens, as one
more choice then other, namely, for the an
cient estate of this City, more then foure
hundred yeeres since: and also the said Au
thor being rare, I have in this place thought
good by impression to impart the same to
my loving friends, the learned Antiquaries,
as the Author wrote it in the Latine tongue. And first to note in
effect, what Master Bale in commendation of the said Author
writeth.

William Stephanides, or Fitz-Stephen, a Monke of Canterbury,
borne of worshipfull Parents in the City of London, well brought
up at the first under good Masters, did more and more increase in
honest condicions and learning: for ever in his young yeeres there
appeared in him a certaine light of a Gentleman-like disposition,
which promised many good things, afterward by him performed.
Such time as others spent in brawles and idle talke, hee imployed
in wholsome exercises for the honour of his Country, following
therein the example of Plato: and was very studious both in hu
manity and divinity.

The City of London, his birth place, the most Noble of all
other Cities of this Land, and the Princes Seate, situated in the
South part of this Iland, hee loved above all the other, so that at
length he wrote most elegantly in Latine of the site, and rites of
the same. Leland in divers of his Bookes commendeth him for an
excellent Writer. He lived in the Raigne of King Stephen, wrote
in the Raigne of Henry the second, and deceased in the yeere of
Christ, 1191. in the Raigne of Richard the first.

benigni & liberales.

De Scholis.
IN Londonia tres principales ecclesiae
Scholas celebres habent de privilegio &
antiquae dignitate. Plerunque tamen fa

mematae: hi meliùs perfectis utuntur Syllo
gismis. Quidam ad estemationem exercen

Alii ad veritatem, ea quae est perfectionis
gratia: sophisiae simulatores agmine & in
undatione verborum beati iudicantur. Alii
paralogizantur: Oratores aliqui quandoque
orationibus Rhetoricis aliquid dicunt appo

De dispositione Vrbis.
SIngulorum officiorum exercitores, sin
gularum rerum venditores, singula
rism operarum suarum locatores, quo
tidiano mane per s. sunt locis distincti om
nes, ut officiis. Praetereà est in Londonia
supra ripam fluminis inter vina in navibus,
& cellis vinariis venalia, publica coquina:
ibi quotidiè pro tempore est invenire cibaria
fercula, assa, frixa, elixa, pisces, pisciculos,
carnes grossiores pauperibus, delicatiores di
vitibus, venationum, avium, avicularum.
Si subitò veniant ad aliquem civium amici
fatigati ex itinere, nec libeat ieiunis expe
ctare, ut novi cibi emantur, cequantur, dant
famuli manibus limphas panesque, interim
adripam curritur, ibi presso sunt omnia de
siderabilia. Quantal bet militum vel peri
grinorum infinitas intrat urbem, qualibet
dici vel noctis hora, vel ab urbe extitura, ne
vel hi nimium ieiunent, vel alii impransi
exeant, illuc si placeat divertunt, & se pro
modo suo singuli reficiunt: qui se curare
volunt molliter, accipenserem vel aliam a
vel attagen Ionicum non quaerant, ap
positis quae ibi inveniuntur deliciis: Haec
equidem publica, coquina est & civitati
plurimum expediens, & ad Civitatem per
tinens: Hinc est quod legitur in Georgia
Platonis, juxtae medicinam esse coquorum
officium, simulantium & adulationem
quartae particulae civilitatis. Est ibi extra
unam portarum statim in suburbio quidam
planus campus re & nomine. Omni sexta
feria, nisi sit major festivitas prae ceptae so
lemnitatis, est ihi celebre spectaculorum no
bilium equorum venalium. Spectaturi vel
empturi veniunt, qui in urbe adsunt, comi
tes, harones, milites, cives plurimi. Iuvat
videre gradarios succussatura nitente su
aviter ambulantes: pedibus later aliter si
mul erectis, quasi à subalternis, & demissis:
Hinc equos, qui armigeris magis conveni
unt, durius incedentes, sed expeditè tamen,
qui quasi à contra dictoribus pedes simul ele

niores, qui nondum fraeno bene assueti, al
tius incedunt, & mollia crura reponunt:
Hinc summarios membris validis & vege

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.
