sit in oppositions, and as soone as he feeleth the letter, he will perceive that I have sent him some money, and he will say to thee _Quomodo valet magister tuus?_ that is to say, how doth thy Master? thou shalt say _Bene_: that is to say, well. Then will he say, _Quid petis?_ What thing doest thou aske? Then thou shalt say, _Diaconatum_, to be a Deacon. Then the Ordinary will say, _Es tu literatus?_ art thou learned? & thou shalt say _Aliqualiter_, somewhat. Now said _Scogin_, thou hast no more than three words to beare in mind in Latine, which is to say _Bene_, _Diaconatum_, and _Aliqualiter_. The father and the scholler were glad that by _Scogins_ letters & the money he should be Deacon, & went to the oppositions, and delivered his letter with the money. The Ordinary perceiving money in the letter, said to the scholler. _Quid petis?_ that is to say, what dost thou aske or desire? The scholler remembring _Scogins_ words, that the first word was _Bene_, he said _Bene_, that is, well. When the Ordinary heard him say so, he said _Quomodo valet Magister tuus?_ How doth thy Master? The scholler said, _Diaconatum_ that is to say Deacon. The Ordinary did see he was a foole, & said, _Tu es stultus_, thou art a foole: the scholler said _Aliqualiter_, that is to say, somewhat. Nay, said the Ordinary not _Aliqualiter_, but _Totaliter_, a starke foole. Then the scholler was amazed, and said, sir, let me not goe home without mine Orders, and heere is another Angell of gold for you to drinke. Well, said the Ordinary, on that condition you will promise me to goe to your booke and learne, you shall bee Deacon at this time. Heere a man may see that money is better than learning. [17.] In a wedding between a Gentleman of a great Family and no Wealth, and a Widdow of great Wealth; says one This is like a Black pudding; the one brought _blood_, and the other _Suet_ and _Oatmeal_. [110.] In the beginning of Queene Elizabeaths raigne, when the order of hanging out lanterne and Candlelight first of all was brought up; the bedell of the warde where Maister _Hobson_ dwelt, in a darke evening crieing up and downe, hang out your lantornes; using no other words. Whereupon Maister _Hobson_ tooke an empty lantorne, and according to the beadles call hung it out. This flout by the Lord Maior was taken in ill part, and for the same offence was sent to the counter; but being released, the next night following, the beadle thinking to amend his call, cried with a loud voice, hang out your lantorne and Candle. Maister _Hobson_ hereupon hung out a lantorne and candle unlighted, as the beadle againe commanded, whereupon he was sent againe to the counter. But the next night the beadle being better advised, cryed, hang out your lantorne and candle light, hang out your lantorne and candle light, which maister _Hobson_ at last did, to his great commendations, which cry of lanthorne and candle light is in right manner used to this day.
