peregrinations. And, befides the Learned Gr^/&4;j^//?j, you have 
many expert Teachers of thefeufeful Arts. And a Free School 
is lately erefled by his Majefties munificence , to inftruft forty 
young Scholars in Geometry, Navigation, and other parts of the 
Machematicks. Mean v^^hile our UniverfiHes and noble Palaces

Nurfery-men , and Country-gentlemen , to do much good for

vrhich will be more efieflual ^ if it be done every whereat the
