[Transcriber's Note:
This text is intended for users whose text readers cannot use the "real" (Unicode/UTF-8) version of the file. Characters that could not be fully displayed have been "unpacked" and shown in brackets:
[en], [em] = e with overline
[un], [um] = u with overline
[in] = i with overline (once only)
The forms ã (for an, am) and õ (for om, on) have been retained.
The text is based on scans of two different physical copies of the same
edition; see end of e-text for one variant reading. Other errors are
also listed at the end of the e-text.
Superscripts are shown with carets: w^t, y^e. All pilcrows ¶ in the
body text were added by the transcriber (see endnotes).
The book was originally (1550) printed together with Erasmus's _The
Education of Children_. The introduction (1961) mentions Erasmus
briefly; the Index refers only to Sherry's _Treatise_. Since the
two texts have no connection except that Sherry is assumed to be the
translator of the Erasmus essay, they have been made into separate
e-texts.]
