Vulgaria Terentii [English and Latin].
- Analysis of content:

n1r [Title.] ‘Vulgaria quedam abs Terentio in Anglicam linguam traducta.’
-
n1r [Verse addressed to the student]. Incipit: ‘Hunc studiose puer menti committe libellum | Anglica qui cupis et uerba latina loqui'; 3 elegiac distichs.

n1r [Anwykyll, John: English translation of citations from Terence.] Incipit: ‘[G]odd spede you, save you and rest merry . . . Gramercy and I thank you and thee . . .’ Alternates with lemmata from Terence's plays. This compilation is ascribed to John Anwykyll by Sharpe, Latin Writers, no. 565. N. Orme, Education in Early Tudor England: Magdalen College Oxford and its School, 1480-1540 (Oxford, 1998), 32, 36-7, considers that the Vulgaria embody Ankwykyll's own teaching programme. On editions of Vulgaria Terentia see Rhodes, ‘Térence au XVe siècle', 285.

Dating from the evidence of the Bodleian second copy, which is bound in a contemporary binding, with other items, and with the buyer's date of 1483 written in an inscription on the endleaf; see A‑021(3). Duff suggests that this item was probably issued together with John Anwykyll, Compendium totius grammaticae (A‑358).
