"This treats of the eight parts of reason; but they differ in several respects as to the manner of treating of them; this treating largely of the degrees of comparison, which the other (_Accidentia ex Stanbrigiana Collectione_) does not so much as mention. That gives the moods and tenses of the 4. conjugations at large, both active and passive, whereas this gives only a few short rules to know them by. Again, this shews the concords of grammar, which the other has not." There are at least three issues of the _Accidence_ from London presses, and a fourth in an abridged shape from an Antwerp one, presumably for the convenience of English residents in the Low Countries. The tide had by this time begun to a certain extent to flow in an opposite direction, as it were, and not only introductions to our own language were executed here and reproduced abroad, but Latin authors were beginning to find competent native interpreters, among whom John Annaquil was perhaps the foremost. Next to the _Accidence_ of Stanbridge I shall consider briefly his _Vocabula_, which was, on the whole, the most popular of his works, and continued for the greatest length of time in vogue, as I record editions of it as late as the period of the Civil War (1647). I have not, on the other hand, met with any anterior to 1510. Annexed is a specimen:-- _De naui et eius pertinentibus._ The formost parte The hynder parte The saylewarde the bottom of the of the shyppe of the shyppe =antenna= shyppe =Prora nauis= =Puppis rostrum= =carina= The takelynge the mast The cable an anker the stern =Armamenta= =malus= =rudens simul= =anchora= =clauus= The hatches the pompe the water pompe the hatches =foci= =sentina cum= =nautea nausea= =transtra= The sayle cloth idem the maste of the shyppe to sayle a shypman =carbalus= =et belum= =nauergus= =et nauigo= =nauta= Qui nauem regit idem i. nauis =nauicularius= =et nauclerus= =nauigiumq=; P̅tinēs ad nauē to rowe qui remigat the dockes an ore =naualis= =remigio= =remus= =naualia= =remex= P̅tinens ad nauē qui fregit nauem the see a wawe =nauticus et= =naufragus naufragium= =ac mare= =fretū= To carry ouer to dryue to carry ouer the toll, or the custome =Trajitio= =appello= =transporto= =portarjumq=; A fery man a fery barge idem a cokbote a bottom =Portitor= =hyppago= =ponto= =Iynter quoq=; =cymba= This extract is highly edifying. In the concluding line _ponto_, a ferry-barge, is the modern _punt_, and _lynter_, a cock-boat, is the early Venetian _lintra_, to which I refer in _Venice before the Stones_ as antecedent to the gondola.
