It may not be generally known that Comenius was once solicited to become
President of Harvard College. The following is a quotation from Vol. II,
p. 14, of Cotton Mather’s MAGNALIA:
“That brave old man, Johannes Amos Commenius, the fame of whose
worth has been TRUMPETTED as far as more than three languages
(whereof everyone is indebted unto his JANUA) could carry it, was
indeed agreed withal, by one Mr. Winthrop in his travels through
the LOW COUNTRIES, to come over to New England, and illuminate
their Colledge and COUNTRY, in the quality of a President, which
was now become vacant. But the solicitations of the Swedish
Ambassador diverting him another way, that incomparable Moravian
became not an American.”
This was on the resignation of President Dunster, in 1654--Note of Prof.
PAYNE, Compayre’s History of Education, Boston, 1886, p. 125.
EDITOR’S PREFACE.
When it is remembered that this work is not only an educational classic
of prime importance, but that it was the first picture-book ever made
for children and was for a century the most popular text-book in Europe,
and yet has been for many years unattainable on account of its rarity,
the wonder is, not that it is reproduced now but that it has not been
reproduced before. But the difficulty has been to find a satisfactory
copy. Many as have been the editions, few copies have been preserved. It
was a book children were fond of and wore out in turning the leaves over
and over to see the pictures. Then as the old copper-plates became
indistinct they were replaced by wood-engravings, of coarse execution,
and often of changed treatment. Von Raumer complains that the edition of
1755 substitutes for the original cut of the Soul, (No. 43, as here
given,) a picture of an eye, and in a table the figures I. I. II. I. I.
II., and adds that it is difficult to recognize in this an expressive
psychological symbol, and to explain it. In an edition I have, published
in Vienna in 1779, this cut is omitted altogether, and indeed there are
but 82 in place of the 157 found in earlier editions, the following, as
numbered in this edition, being omitted:
1, the alphabet, 2, 36, 43, 45, 66, 68, 75, 76, 78-80, 87, 88, 92-122,
124, 126, 128, 130-141.
On the other hand, the Vienna edition contains a curious additional cut.
It gives No. 4, the Heaven, practically as in this edition, but puts
another cut under it in which the earth is revolving about the sun; and
after the statement of Comenius, “_Coelum rotatur, et ambit terram, in
medio stantem_” interpolates: “_prout veteres crediderunt; recentiores
enim defendunt motum terrae circa solem_” [as the ancients used to
think; for later authorities hold that the motion of the earth is about
the sun.]
Two specimen pages from another edition are inserted in Payne’s
Compayré’s History of Education (between pp. 126, 127). The cut is the
representative of No. 103 in this edition, but those who compare them
will see not only how much coarser is the execution of the wood-cut
Prof. Payne has copied, but what liberties have been taken with the
design. The only change in the Latin text, however, is from _Designat
Figuras rerum_ in the original, to _Figuram rerum designat_.
In this edition the cuts are unusually clear copies of the copper-plates
of the first edition of 1658, from which we have also taken the Latin
text. The text for the English translation is from the English edition
of 1727, in which for the first time the English words were so arranged
as to stand opposite their Latin equivalents.
The cuts have been reproduced with great care by the photographic
process. I thought best not to permit them to be retouched, preferring
occasional indistinctness to modern tampering with the originals that
would make them less authentic.
The English text is unchanged from that of the 1727 edition, except in
rare instances where substitutions have been made for single words not
now permissible. The typography suggests rather than imitates the
quaintness of the original, and the paper was carefully selected to
produce so far as practicable the impression of the old hand-presses.
In short my aim has been to put within the reach of teachers at a
moderate price a satisfactory reproduction of this important book; and
if the sale of the _Orbis Pictus_ seems to warrant it, I hope
subsequently to print as a companion volume the _Vestibulum_ and _Janua_
of the same author, of which I have choice copies.

COMMENTS UPON THE ORBIS PICTUS.
During four years he here prosecuted his efforts in behalf of education
with commendable success, and wrote, among other works, his celebrated
Orbis Pictus, which has passed through a great many editions, and
survived a multitude of imitations. --SMITH’S HISTORY OF EDUCATION,
N.Y., 1842, p. 129.
The most eminent educator of the seventeenth century, however, was John
Amos Comenius...... His Orbis Sensualium Pictus, published in 1657,
enjoyed a still higher renown. The text was much the same with the
Janua, being intended as a kind of elementary encyclopædia; but _it
differed from all previous text-books_, in being illustrated with
pictures, on copper and wood, of the various topics discussed in it.
This book was universally popular. In those portions of Germany where
the schools had been broken up by the “Thirty years’ war,” mothers
taught their children from its pages. Corrected and amended by later
editors, it continued for nearly two hundred years, to be a text-book of
the German schools. --HISTORY AND PROGRESS OF EDUCATION, BY
PHILOBIBLIUS, N.Y., 1860, p. 210.
The “Janua” would, therefore, have had but a short-lived popularity with
teachers, and a still shorter with learners, if Comenius had not carried
out his principle of appealing to the senses, and called in the artist.
The result was the “Orbis Pictus,” a book which proved a favorite with
young and old, and maintained its ground in many a school for more than
a century.... I am sorry I cannot give a specimen of this celebrated
book with its quaint pictures. The artist, of course, was wanting in the
technical skill which is now commonly displayed even in the cheapest
publications, but this renders his delineations none the less
entertaining. As a picture of the life and manners of the
seventeenthcentury, the work has great historical interest, which will,
I hope, secure for it another English edition. --QUICK’S EDUCATIONAL
REFORMERS, 1868; Syracuse edition, p. 79.
But the principle on which he most insisted is that the teaching of
words and things must go together, hand in hand. When we consider how
much time is spent over new languages, what waste of energy is lavished
on mere preparation, how it takes so long to lay a foundation that there
is no time to lay a building upon it, we must conclude that it is in the
acceptance and development of this principle that the improvement of
education will in the future consist. Any one who attempts to inculcate
this great reform will find that its first principles are contained in
the writings of Comenius. --ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNICA, 9th edition, vii.
674.
The first edition of this celebrated book was published at Nuremberg in
1657; soon after a translation was made into English by Charles Hoole.
The last English edition appeared in 1777, and this was reprinted in
America in 1812. This was the first illustrated school-book, and was the
first attempt at what now passes under the name of “object lessons.”
--SHORT HISTORY OF EDUCATION, W. H. PAYNE, Syracuse, 1881, p. 103.
Of these, the “Janua” and the “Orbis” were translated into most European
and some of the Oriental languages. It is evident that these practices
of Comenius contain the germs of things afterwards connected with the
names of Pestalozzi and Stow. It also may be safely assumed that many
methods that are now in practical use, were then not unknown to earliest
teachers. --GILL’S SYSTEMS OF EDUCATION, London, 1876, p. 13.
The more we reflect on the method of Comenius, the more we shall see it
is replete with suggestiveness, and we shall feel surprised that so much
wisdom can have lain in the path of schoolmasters for two hundred and
fifty years, and that they have never stooped to avail themselves of its
treasures. --BROWNING’S INTRODUCTION TO THE HISTORY OF EDUCATIONAL
THEORIES, 1882, New York edition, p. 67.
The “Orbis Pictus,” the first practical application of the intuitive
method, had an extraordinary success, and has served as a model for the
innumerable illustrated books which for three centuries have invaded the
schools. --COMPAYRE’S HISTORY OF PEDAGOGY, Payne’s translation, Boston,
1886, p. 127.
He remained at Patak four years, which were characterized by surprising
literary activity. During this short period he produced no less than
fifteen different works, among them his “World Illustrated” (_Orbis
Pictus_), the most famous of all his writings. It admirably applied the
principle that words and things should be learned together.... The
“World Illustrated” had an enormous circulation, and remained for a long
time the most popular text-book in Europe. --PAINTER’S HISTORY OF
EDUCATION, N.Y., 1886, p. 206.
Or, si ce livre n’est qu’un équivalent se la véritable intuition; si,
ensuite, le contenu du tout paraît fort défectueux, au point de vue de
la science de nos jours; si, enfin, un effort exagéré pour l’intégrité
de la conception de l’enfant a créé, pour les choses modernes, trop de
dénominations latines qui paraissent douteuses, l’Orbis pictus était
pourtant, pour son temps, une oeuvre très originale et très spirituelle,
qui fit faire un grand progrès à la pédagogie et servit longtemps de
livre d’école utile et de modèle à d’innombrables livres d’images,
souvent pires. --HISTOIRE D’ ÉDUCATION, FREDERICK DITTES, Redolfi’s
French translation, Paris, 1880, p. 178.
Here Comenius wrote, among others, his second celebrated work the “Orbis
Pictus.” He was not, however, able to finish it in Hungary for want of a
skilful engraver on copper. For such a one he carried it to Michael
Endter, the bookseller at Nuremberg, but the engraving delayed the
publication of the book for three years more. In 1657 Comenius expressed
the hope that it would appear during the next autumn. With what great
approbation the work was received at its first appearance, is shown by
the fact that within two years, in 1659, Endter had published a second
enlarged edition. --KARL VON RAUMER, translated in Barnard’s Journal of
Education, v. 260.
The “Janua” had an enormous sale, and was published in many languages,
but the editions and sale of the “Orbis Pictus” far exceeded those of
the “Janua,” and, indeed, for some time it was the most popular
text-book in Europe, and deservedly so. --LAURIE’S JOHN AMOS COMENIUS,

THE AUTHOR’S PREFACE TO THE READER.
_Instruction is the means to expel Rudeness_, with which young wits
ought to be well furnished in Schools: But so, as that the teaching be
1. _True_, 2. _Full_, 3. _Clear_, and 4. _Solid_.
1. It will be _true_, if nothing be taught but such as is beneficial to
ones life; lest there be a cause of complaining afterwards. We know not
necessary things, because we have not learned things necessary.
2. It will be _full_, if the mind be polished for wisdom, the tongue for
eloquence, and the hands for a neat way of living. This will be that
_grace_ of one’s life, _to be wise, to act, to speak_.
3, 4. It will be _clear_, and by that, firm and _solid_, if whatever is
taught and learned, be not obscure, or confused, but apparent, distinct,
and articulate, as the fingers on the hands.
The ground of this business, is, that sensual objects may be rightly
presented to the senses, for fear they may not be received. I say, and
say it again aloud, that this last is the foundation of all the rest:
because we can neither act nor speak wisely, unless we first rightly
understand all the things which are to be done, and whereof we are to
speak. Now there is nothing in the understanding, which was not before
in the sense. And therefore to exercise the senses well about the right
perceiving the differences of things, will be to lay the grounds for all
wisdom, and all wise discourse, and all discreet actions in ones course
of life. Which, because it is commonly neglected in schools, and the
things which are to be learned are offered to scholars, without being
understood or being rightly presented to the senses, it cometh to pass,
that the work of teaching and learning goeth heavily onward, and
affordeth little benefit.
See here then a new help for schools, A Picture and Nomenclature of all
the chief things in the world, and of men’s actions in their way of
living: Which, that you, good Masters, may not be loath to run over with
your scholars, I will tell you, in short, what good you may expect from
it.
It is _a little Book_, as you see, of no great bulk, yet a brief of the
whole world, and a whole language: full of Pictures, Nomenclatures, and
Descriptions of things.
I. _The Pictures_ are the representation of all visible things, (to
which also things invisible are reduced after their fashion) of the
whole world. And that in that very order of things, in which they are
described in the _Janua Latinæ Linguæ_; and with that fulness, that
nothing very necessary or of great concernment is omitted.
II. _The Nomenclatures_ are the Inscriptions, or Titles set every one
over their own Pictures, expressing the whole thing by its own general
term.
III. _The Descriptions_ are the explications of the parts of the
Picture, so expressed by their own proper terms, as that same figure
which is added to every piece of the picture, and the term of it, always
sheweth what things belongeth one to another.
Which such Book, and in such a dress may (I hope) serve,
I. To entice witty children to it, that they may not conceit a torment
to be in the school, but dainty fare. For it is apparent, that children
(even from their infancy almost) are delighted with Pictures, and
willingly please their eyes with these lights: And it will be very well
worth the pains to have once brought it to pass, that scare-crows may be
taken away out of Wisdom’s Gardens.
II. This same little Book will serve to stir up the Attention, which is
to be fastened upon things, and even to be sharpened more and more:
which is also a great matter. For the Senses (being the main guides of
childhood, because therein the mind doth not as yet raise up itself to
an abstracted contemplation of things) evermore seek their own objects,
and if they be away, they grow dull, and wry themselves hither and
thither out of a weariness of themselves: but when their objects are
present, they grow merry, wax lively, and willingly suffer themselves to
be fastened upon them, till the thing be sufficiently discerned. This
Book then will do a good piece of service in taking (especially
flickering) wits, and preparing them for deeper studies.
III. Whence a third good will follow; that children being won hereunto,
and drawn over with this way of heeding, may be furnished with the
knowledge of the prime things that are in the world, by sport and merry
pastime. In a word, this Book will serve for the more pleasing using of
the _Vestibulum_ and _Janua Linguarum_, for which end it was even at the
first chiefly intended. Yet if it like any, that it be bound up in their
native tongues also, it promiseth three good thing of itself.
I. First it will afford a device for learning to read more easily than
hitherto, especially having a symbolical alphabet set before it, to wit,
the characters of the several letters, with the image of that creature,
whose voice that letter goeth about to imitate, pictur’d by it. For the
young _Abc_ scholar will easily remember the force of every character by
the very looking upon the creature, till the imagination being
strengthened by use, can readily afford all things; and then having
looked over a _table of the chief syllables_ also (which yet was not
thought necessary to be added to this book) he may proceed to the
viewing of the Pictures, and the inscriptions set over ’em. Where again
the very looking upon the thing pictured suggesting the name of the
thing, will tell him how the title of the picture is to be read. And
thus the whole book being gone over by the bare titles of the pictures,
reading cannot but be learned; and indeed too, which thing is to be
noted, without using any ordinary tedious spelling, that most
troublesome torture of wits, which may wholly be avoided by this method.
For the often reading over the Book, by those larger descriptions of
things, and which are set after the Pictures, will be able perfectly to
beget a habit of reading.
II. The same book being used in English, in English Schools, will serve
for the perfect learning of the whole English tongue, and that from the
bottom; because by the aforesaid descriptions of things, the words and
phrases of the whole language are found set orderly in their own places.
And a short English Grammar might be added at the end, clearly resolving
the speech already understood into its parts; shewing the declining of
the several words, and reducing those that are joined together under
certain rules.
III. Thence a new benefit cometh, that that very English Translation may
serve for the more ready and pleasant learning of the Latin tongue: as
one may see in this Edition, the whole book being so translated, that
every where one word answereth to the word over against it, and the book
is in all things the same, only in two idioms, as a man clad in a double
garment. And there might be also some observations and advertisements
added in the end, touching those things only, wherein the use of the
Latin tongue differeth from the English. For where there is no
difference, there needeth no advertisement to be given. But, because the
first _tasks of learners ought to be little and single_, we have filled
this first book of training one up to see a thing of himself, with
nothing but rudiments, that is, with the chief of things and words, or
with the grounds of the whole world, and the whole language, and of all
our understanding about things. If a more perfect description of things,
and a fuller knowledge of a language, and a clearer light of the
understanding be sought after (as they ought to be) they are to be found
somewhere whither there will now be an easy passage by this our _little
Encyclopædia_ of things subject to the senses. Something remaineth to be
said touching the more chearful use of this book.
I. Let it be given to children into their hands to delight themselves
withal as they please, with the sight of the pictures, and making them
as familiar to themselves as may be, and that even at home before they
be put to school.
II. Then let them be examined ever and anon (especially now in the
school) what this thing or that thing is, and is called, so that they
may see nothing which they know not how to name, and that they can name
nothing which they cannot shew.
III. And let the things named them be shewed, not only in the Picture,
but also in themselves; for example, the parts of the body, clothes,
books, the house, utensils, &c.
IV. Let them be suffered also to imitate the Pictures by hand, if they
will, nay rather, let them be encouraged, that they may be willing:
first, thus to quicken the attention also towards the things; and to
observe the proportion of the parts one towards another; and lastly to
practise the nimbleness of the hand, which is good for many things.
V. If anything here mentioned, cannot be presented to the eye, it will
be to no purpose at all to offer them by themselves to the scholars; as
colours, relishes, &c., which cannot here be pictured out with ink. For
which reason it were to be wished, that things rare and not easy to be
met withal at home, might be kept ready in every great school, that they
may be shewed also, as often as any words are to be made of them, to the
scholars.
Thus at last this school would indeed become a school of things obvious
to the senses, and an entrance to the school intellectual. But enough:
Let us come to the thing it self.
THE TRANSLATOR, TO ALL JUDICIOUS AND INDUSTRIOUS SCHOOL-MASTERS.
Gentlemen.
There are a few of you (I think) but have seen, and with great
willingness made use of (or at least perused,) many of the Books of this
well-deserving Author Mr. John Comenius, which for their profitableness
to the speedy attainment of a language, have been translated in several
countries, out of Latin into their own native tongue.
Now the general verdict (after trial made) that hath passed, touching
those formerly extant, is this, that they are indeed of singular use,
and very advantageous to those of more discretion, (especially to such
as already have a smattering of Latin) to help their memories to retain
what they have scatteringly gotten here and there, to furnish them with
many words, which (perhaps) they had not formerly read, or so well
observed; but to young children (whom we have chiefly to instruct) as
those that are ignorant altogether of things and words, and prove rather
a meer toil and burthen, than a delight and furtherance.
For to pack up many words in memory, of things not conceived in the
mind, is to fill the head with empty imaginations, and to make the
learner more to admire the multitude and variety (and thereby, to become
discouraged,) than to care to treasure them up, in hopes to gain more
knowledge of what they mean.
He hath therefore in some of his latter works seemed to move retrograde,
and striven to come nearer the reach of tender wits: and in this present
Book, he hath, according to my judgment, descended to the very bottom of
what is to be taught, and proceeded (as nature it self doth) in an
orderly way; first to exercise the senses well, by representing their
objects to them, and then to fasten upon the intellect by impressing the
first notions of things upon it, and linking them on to another by a
rational discourse. Whereas indeed, we, generally missing this way, do
teach children as we do parrots, to speak they know not what, nay which
is worse, we, taking the way of teaching little ones by Grammar only at
the first, do puzzle their imaginations with abstractive terms and
secondary intentions, which till they be somewhat acquainted with
things, and the words belonging to them, in the language which they
learn, they cannot apprehend what they mean. And this I guess to be the
reason, why many great persons do resolve sometimes not to put a child
to school till he be at least eleven or twelve years of age, presuming
that he having then taken notice of most things, will sooner get the
knowledge of the words which are applyed to them in any language. But
the gross misdemeanor of such children for the most part, have taught
many parents to be hasty enough to send their own to school, if not that
they may learn, yet (at least) that they might be kept out of harm’s
way; and yet if they do not profit for the time they have been at
school, (no respect at all being had for their years) the Master shall
be sure enough to bear the blame.
So that a School-master had need to bend his wits to come within the
compass of a child’s capacity of six or seven years of age (seeing we
have now such commonly brought to our Grammar-schools to learn the Latin
Tongue) and to make that they may learn with as much delight and
willingness, as himself would teach with dexterity and ease. And at
present I know no better help to forward his young scholars than this
little Book, which was for this purpose contrived by the Author in the
German and Latin Tongues.
What profitable use may be had thereof, respecting chiefly that his own
country and language, he himself hath told you in his preface; but what
use we may here make of it in our Grammar-schools, as it is now
translated into English, I shall partly declare; leaving all other men,
according to my wont, to their own discretion and liberty, to use or
refuse it, as they please. So soon then as a child can read English
perfectly, and is brought to us to school to learn Latin, I would have
him together with his Accidence, to be provided of this Book, in which
he may at least once a day (beside his Accidence) be thus exercised.
I. Let him look over the pictures with their general titles and
inscriptions, till he be able to turn readily to any one of them, and to
tell its name either in English or Latin. By this means he shall have
the method of the Book in his head; and be easily furnished with the
knowledge of most things; and instructed how to call them, when at any
time he meeteth with them elsewhere, in their real forms.
II. Let him read the description at large: First in English, and
afterward in Latin, till he can readily read, and distinctly pronounce
the words in both Languages, ever minding how they are spelled. And
withal, let him take notice of the figures inserted, and to what part of
the picture they direct by their like till he be well able to find out
every particular thing of himself, and to name it on a sudden, either in
English or Latin. Thus he shall not only gain the most primitive words,
but be understandingly grounded in Orthography, which is a thing too
generally neglected by us; partly because our English schools think that
children should learn it at the Latin, and our Latin schools suppose
they have already learn’d it at the English; partly, because our common
Grammar is too much defective in this part, and scholars so little
exercised therein, that they pass from schools to the Universities and
return from thence (some of them) more unable to write true English,
than either Latin or Greek. Not to speak of our ordinary Tradesmen, many
of whom write such false English, that none but themselves can interpret
what they scribble in their bills and shop-books.
III. Then let him get the Titles and Descriptions by heart, which he
will more easily do, by reason of these impressions which the viewing of
the pictures hath already made in his memory. And now let him also
learn, 1. To construe, or give the words one by one, as they answer one
another in Latin and English. 2. To Parse, according to the rules,
(which I presume by this time) he hath learn’d in the first part of his
Accidence; where I would have him tell what part of Speech any word is,
and then what accidents belong to it; but especially to decline the
nouns and conjugate the verbs according to the Examples in his
Rudiments; and this doing will enable him to know the end and use of his
Accidence. As for the Rules of Genders of Nouns, and the
Præter-perfect-tenses and Supines of Verbs, and those of Concordance and
Construction in the latter part of the Accidence, I would not have a
child much troubled with them, till by the help of this Book he can
perfectly practise so much of Etymology, as concerns the first part of
his Accidence only. For that, and this book together, being thoroughly
learn’d by at least thrice going them over, will much prepare children
to go chearfully forward in their Grammar and School-Authors,
especially, if whilst they are employed herein, they be taught also to
write a fair and legible hand.
There is one thing to be given notice of, which I wish could have been
remedied in this Translation; that the Book being writ in high-Dutch
doth express many things in reference to that Country and Speech, which
cannot without alteration of some Pictures as well as words be expressed
in ours: for the Symbolical Alphabet is fitted for German children
rather than for ours. And whereas the words of that Language go orderly
one for one with the Latin, our English propriety of Speech will not
admit the like. Therefore it will behove those Masters that intend to
make use of this Book, to construe it verbatim to their young Scholars,
who will quickly learn to do it of themselves, after they be once
acquainted with the first words of Nouns, and Verbs, and their manner of
variation.
Such a work as this, I observe to have been formerly much desired by
some experienced Teachers, and I my self had some years since (whilst my
own Child lived) begun the like, having found it most agreeable to the
best witted Children, who are most taken up with Pictures from their
Infancy, because by them the knowledge of things which they seem to
represent (and whereof Children are as yet ignorant) are most easily
conveyed to the Understanding. But for as much as the work is now done,
though in some things not so completely as it were to be wished, I
rejoyce in the use of it, and desist in my own undertakings for the
present. And because any good thing is the better, being the more
communicated; I have herein imitated a Child who is forward to impart to
others what himself has well liked. You then that have the care of
little Children, do not much trouble their thoughts and clog their
memories with bare Grammar Rudiments, which to them are harsh in
getting, and fluid in retaining; because indeed to them they signifie
nothing, but a mere swimming notion of a general term, which they know
not what it meaneth, till they comprehend particulars, but by this or
the like subsidiary, inform them, first with some knowledge of things
and words wherewith to express them, and then their Rules of speaking
will be better understood and more firmly kept in mind. Else how should
a Child conceive what a Rule meaneth, when he neither knoweth what the
Latin word importeth, nor what manner of thing it is which is signified
to him in his own native Language, which is given him thereby to
understand the Rule? For Rules consisting of generalities, are delivered
(as I may say) at a third hand, presuming first the things, and then the
words to be already apprehended touching which they are made. I might
indeed enlarge upon this Subject, it being the very Basis of our
Profession, to search into the way of Childrens taking hold by little
and little of what we teach them, that so we may apply ourselves to
their reach: But I leave the observation thereof to your own daily
exercise, and experience got thereby.
And I pray God, the fountain and giver of all wisdom, that hath bestowed
upon us this gift of Teaching, so to inspire and direct us by his Grace,
that we may train up Children in his Fear and in the knowledge of his
Son Jesus Christ our Lord; and then no doubt our teaching and their
learning of other things subordinate to these, will by the assistance of
his blessed Spirit make them able and willing to do him faithful Service
both in Church and Commonwealth, as long as they live here, that so they
may be eternally blessed with him hereafter. This, I beseech you, beg
for me and mine, as I shall daily do for you and yours, at the throne of
God’s heavenly grace; and remain while I live
Ready to serve you, as I truly love and honour you, and labour willingly
in the same Profession with you,
CHARLES HOOLE.
From my School, in
_Lothbury, London, Jan. 25, 1658_.
_N.B._ Those Heads or Descriptions which concern things beyond the
present apprehension of Children’s wits, as, those of Geography,
Astronomy, or the like, I would have omitted, till the rest be learned,
and a Child be _better able to understand them_.
_The Judgment of Mr. _Hezekiah Woodward_, sometimes an _eminent
Schoolmaster in LONDON_, touching a work of this Nature; in his _Gate to
Science_, chap. 2._
Certainly _the use of Images or Representations is great_: If we could
make our words as legible to Children as Pictures are, their information
therefrom would be quickned and surer. But so we cannot do, though we
must do what we can. And if we had Books, wherein are the Pictures of
all Creatures, Herbs, Beasts, Fish, Fowls, they would stand us in great
stead. For Pictures are the most intelligible Books that Children can
look upon. They come closest to Nature, nay, saith Scaliger, Art exceeds
her.
AN ADVERTISEMENT CONCERNING THIS EDITION.
As there are some considerable Alterations in the present Edition of
this Book from the former, it may be expected an Account should be given
of the Reasons for them. ’Tis certain from the Author’s Words, that when
it was first published, which was in Latin and Hungary, or in Latin and
High-Dutch; every where one word answer’d to another over-against it:
This might have been observ’d in our English Translation, which wou’d
have fully answer’d the design of COMENIUS, and have made the Book much
more useful: But Mr. Hoole, (whether out of too much scrupulousness to
disturb the Words in some places from the order they were in, or not
sufficiently considering the Inconveniences of having the Latin and
English so far asunder) has made them so much disagree, that a Boy has
sometimes to seek 7 or 8 lines off for the corresponding Word; which is
no small trouble to Young Learners who are at first equally unacquainted
with all Words, in a Language they are strangers to, except it be such
as have Figures of Reference, or are very like in sound; and thus may
perhaps, innocently enough join an Adverb in one Tongue, to a Noun in
the other; whence may appear the Necessity of the Translation’s being
exactly literal, and the two Languages fairly answering one another,
Line for Line.
If it be objected, such a thing cou’d not be done (considering the
difference of the Idioms) without transplacing Words here and there, and
putting them into an order which may not perhaps be exactly classical;
it ought to be observed, this is design’d for Boys chiefly, or those who
are just entering upon the Latin Tongue, to whom every thing ought to be
made as plain and familiar as possible, who are not, at their first
beginning, to be taught the elegant placing of Latin, nor from such
short Sentences as these, but from Discourses where the Periods have a
fuller Close. Besides, this way has already taken (according to the
Advice of very good Judges,) in some other School-Books of Mr. Hoole’s
translating, and found to succeed abundantly well.
Such Condescensions as these, to the capacities of young Learners are
certainly very reasonable, and wou’d be most agreeable to the Intentions
of the Ingenious and worthy Author, and his design to suit whatever he
taught, to their manner of apprehending it. Whose Excellency in the art
of Education made him so famous all over Europe, as to be solicited by
several States and Princes to go and reform the Method of their Schools;
and whose works carried that Esteem, that in his own Life-time some part
of them were not only translated into 12 of the usual Languages of
Europe, but also into the _Arabic_, _Turkish_, _Persian_, and _Mogolic_
(the common Tongue of all that part of the _East-Indies_) and since his
death, into the _Hebrew_, and some others. Nor did they want their due
Encouragement here in _England_, some Years ago; ’till by an indiscreet
use of them, and want of a thorow acquaintance with his Method, or
unwillingness to part from their old road, they began to be almost quite
left off: Yet it were heartily to be wish’d, some Persons of Judgment
and Interest, whose Example might have an influence upon others, and
bring them into Reputation again, wou’d revive the COMENIAN METHOD,
which is no other, than to make our Scholars learn with Delight and
chearfulness, and to convey a solid and useful Knowledge of Things, with
that of Languages, in an easy, natural and familiar way. _Didactic
Works_ (as they are now collected into one volume) for a speedy
attaining the Knowledge of Things and Words, join’d with the Discourses
of Mr. Lock[A] and 2 or 3 more out of our own Nation, for forming the
Mind and settling good Habits, may doubtless be look’d upon to contain
the most reasonable, orderly, and completed System of the Art of
Education, that can be met with.
[Footnote A: Mr. Lock’s Essay upon Education.
Dr. Tabor’s Christian Schoolmaster.
Dr. Ob. Walker of Education.
Mr. Monro’s Essay on Education.
--His just Measures of the pious Institutions of Youth, &c.]
Yet, alas! how few are there, who follow the way they have pointed out?
tho’ every one who seriously considers it, must be convinc’d of the
Advantage; and the generality of Schools go on in the same old dull
road, wherein a great part of Children’s time is lost in a tiresome
heaping up a Pack of dry and unprofitable, or pernicious Notions (for
surely little better can be said of a great part of that Heathenish
stuff they are tormented with; like the feeding them with hard Nuts,
which when they have almost broke their teeth with cracking, they find
either deaf or to contain but very rotten and unwholesome Kernels)
whilst Things really perfected of the understanding, and useful in every
state of Life, are left unregarded, to the Reproach of our Nation, where
all other Arts are improved and flourish well, only this of Education of
Youth is at a stand; as if that, the good or ill management of which is
of the utmost consequence to all, were a thing not worth any Endeavors
to improve it, or was already so perfect and well executed that it
needed none, when many of the greatest Wisdom and Judgment in several
Nations, have with a just indignation endeavor’d to expose it, and to
establish a more easy and useful way in its room.
’Tis not easy to say little on so important a subject, but thus much may
suffice for the present purpose. The Book has merit enough to recommend
it self to those who know how to make a right use of it. It was reckon’d
one of the Author’s best performances; and besides the many Impressions
and Translations it has had in parts beyond Sea, has been several times
reprinted here. It was endeavor’d no needless Alterations shou’d be
admitted in this Edition, and as little of any as cou’d consist with the
design of making it plain and useful; to shun the offence it might give
to some; and only the Roman and Italic Character alternately made use
of, where transplacing of Words cou’d be avoided.

Withal _Sensitive_ in
_Animals_;
Simul _Sensitiva_ in
_Animalibus_;
And also rational in
_Men_.
Etiam _Rationalis_ in
_Homine_.
This consisteth in three
things;
Hæc consistet in tribus:
In the _Understanding_,
whereby it judgeth
and understandeth
a thing good and evil,
or true, or apparent.
In _Mente_ (Intellectu)
quâ cognoscit,
& intelligit,
bonum ac malum,
vel verum, vel apparens.
In the _Will_,
whereby it chooseth,
and desireth,
or rejecteth, and
misliketh a thing known.
In _Voluntate_,
quâ eligit,
& concupiscit,
aut rejicit, &
aversatur cognitum.
In the _Mind_,
whereby it pursueth
the Good chosen or
avoideth the Evil rejected.
In _Animo_,
quo prosequitur
Bonum electum, vel
fugit Malum rejectum.
Hence is _Hope_ and _Fear_
in the desire,
and dislike.
Hinc _Spes_ & _Timor_,
in cupidine,
& aversatione:
Hence is _Love_ and _Joy_,
in the Fruition:
Hinc _Amor_ & _Gaudium_,
in fruitione:
But _Anger_ and _Grief_,
in suffering.
Sed _Ira_ ac _Dolor_,
in passione.
The true judgment of a
thing is _Knowledge_;
the false, is _Error_,
_Opinion_ and _Suspicion_.
Vera cognitio
rei, est _Scientia_;
falsa, _Error_,
_Opinio_, _Suspicio_.

The _Moon_ shineth
not by her own _Light_

For the one half of it

the other remaineth darkish.

Hereupon we see it in

Eclipses.
[Illustration]
The _Sun_
is the fountain of light,
inlightning all things,
_Sol_
est fons Lucis,

but the _Earth_, 1.
and the _Moon_, 2.
being shady bodies,
are not pierced with its rays,
for they cast a shadow
upon the place
just over against them.
sed _Terra_, 1.
& _Luna_, 2.
Corpora opaca,

Therefore,
when the Moon lighteth
into the shadow
of the _Earth_, 2.
Ideo
cum Luna incidit
in umbram
_Terræ_, 2.
it is darkened,
which we call an _Eclipse_,
or defect.
obscuratur

But when the _Moon_
runneth betwixt the _Sun_
and the _Earth_, 3.
it covereth it with
its shadow;
Cum vero _Luna_
currit inter _Solem_
& _Terram_, 3.
obtegit illum umbrâ suâ;
and this we call
the _Eclipse_ of the _Sun_,
because it taketh from us
the sight of the _Sun_,
and its light;
& hoc vocamus
_Eclipsin Solis_,
quia adimit nobis
prospectum _Solis_,

neither doth the _Sun_

Mind, Young Man, 5.
imitate _Hercules_:
leave the left hand way,
turn from Vice;
Adverte juvenis, 5.
imitare _Herculem_;
linque sinistram,
aversare Vitium;
the _Entrance_, 6. is fair,
but the _End_, 7.
is ugly and steep down.
_Aditus_ speciosus, 6.
sed _Exitus_, 7.
turpis & præceps.
Go on the right hand,

no way is unpassible

vertue leadeth
Dextera ingredere,

Prudence.
Prudentia.
[Illustration]
_Prudence_, 1.
looketh upon all things
as a _Serpent_, 2.
and doeth, speaketh, or
thinketh nothing in vain.
_Prudentia_, 1.
circumspectat omnia
ut _Serpens_, 2.
agitque, loquitur, aut
cogitat nihil incassum.
She _looks backwards_, 3.
as into a _Looking-glass_, 4.
to _things past_;
_Respicit_, 3.
tanquam in _Speculum_, 4.
ad _præterita_;
and seeth _before her_, 5.
as with a _Perspective-glass_, 7.
_things to come_,
or the _End_, 6.
& _prospicit_, 5.
tanquam _Telescopio_, 7.
_Futura_,
seu _Finem_, 6.
and so she perceiveth
what she hath done, and
what remaineth to be done.
atque ita perspicit
quid egerit, &
quid restet agendum.
She proposeth
an _Honest_, _Profitable_
Actionibus suis
præfigit _Scopum_,
_Honestum_, _Utilem_,
and withal, if it may be done,
a _Pleasant End_,
to her Actions.
simulque, si fieri potest,
_Jucundum_.
Having foreseen the _End_,
she looketh out _Means_,
as a _Way_, 8.
which leadeth to the End;
_Fine_ prospecto,
dispicit _Media_,
ceu _Viam_, 8.
quæ ducit ad finem,
but such as are certain
and easie, and fewer
rather than more,
lest anything should hinder.
sed certa
& facilia; pauciora
potiùs quàm plura,

She watcheth _Opportunity_, 9.
(which having
a _bushy fore-head_, 10.
and being _bald-pated_, 11.
Attendit _Occasioni_, 9.
(quæ
_Fronte Capillata_, 10.

and moreover
_having wings_, 12.

and catcheth it.

She goeth on her way
warily,
for fear she should stumble
or go amiss.

CXI.
Diligence.
Sedulitas.
[Illustration]
_Diligence_, 1. loveth labours,
avoideth _Sloth_,
is always at work,
like the _Pismire_, 2.
_Sedulitas_, 1. amat labores,
fugit _Ignaviam_,
semper est in _opere_,
ut _Formica_, 2.
and carrieth together,
as she doth, for herself,
_Store_ of all things, 3.
& comportat,
ut illa, sibi,
omnium rerum _Copiam_, 3.
She doth not always
sleep, or make holidays,
as the _Sluggard_, 4.
and the _Grashopper_, 5. do,
whom _Want_, 6.
at the last overtaketh.
Non semper
dormit, ferias agit,
aut ut _Ignavus_, 4.
& _Cicada_, 5.
quos _Inopia_, 6.
tandem premit.
She pursueth what things she hath undertaken
chearfully,
even to the end;
she putteth nothing off
till the morrow,
Urget incepta
alacriter
ad finem usque;
procrastinat nihil,
nor doth she sing
the _Crow’s_ song, 7.
which saith over and over,
_Cras, Cras_.
nec cantat
cantilenam _Corvi_, 7.
qui ingeminat
_Cras, Cras_.
After _labours_
_undergone_, and ended,
being even wearied,
she resteth her self;
Post _labores_
_exantlatos_,
& lassata,
quiescit;
but being refreshed with _Rest_,
that she may not use her self
to _Idleness_, she falleth again
to her _Business_,
sed recreata _Quiete_,
ne adsuescat
_Otio_, redit
ad _Negotia_.
A diligent _Scholar_
is like _Bees_, 8.
which carry honey
from divers _Flowers_, 9.
into their _Hive_, 10.
Diligens _Discipulus_,
similis est _Apibus_, 8.
qui congerunt mel
ex variis _Floribus_, 9.

Temperance.
Temperantia.

_Temperance_, 1.
prescribeth a mean
to _meat_ and _drink_, 2.
_Temperantia_, 1.
præscribit _modum_
_Cibo_ & _Potui_, 2.
and restraineth the _desire_,
as with a _Bridle_, 3.
and so moderateth all things,
lest any thing
too much be done.
& continet _cupidinem_,
ceu _Freno_, 3.
& sic moderatur omnia
ne quid
nimis fiat.
_Revellers_
are made _drunk_, 4.
they _stumble_, 5.
they _spue_, 6.
and _babble_, 7.
_Heluones_ (ganeones)
_inebriantur_, 4.
_titubant_, 5.
_ructant_ (vomunt), 6.
& _rixantur_, 7.
From _Drunkenness_
proceedeth _Lasciviousness_;
E _Crapula_
oritur _Lascivia_;
from this a _lewd Life_
amongst _Whoremasters_, 8.
and _Whores_, 9.
ex hâc _Vita libidinosa_
inter _Fornicatores_, 8.
& _Scorta_, 9.
in _kissing_,
_touching_,
_embracing_,
and _dancing_, 10.
_osculando_ (basiando),
_palpando_,
_amplexando_,
& _tripudiando_, 10.
CXIII.
Fortitude.
Fortitudo.
[Illustration]
_Fortitude_, 1.
is undaunted in adversity,
and bold as a _Lion_, 2. but
not haughty in Prosperity,
_Fortitudo_, 1.
impavida est in adversis,
& confidens ut _Leo_, 2. at
non tumida in Secundis,
leaning on her own _Pillar_, 3.
_Constancy_, and
being the same in all things,
ready to undergo both
_estates_ with an even mind.
innixa suo _Columini_, 3.
_Constantiæ_; &
eadem in omnibus,
parata ad ferendam utramque
_fortunam_ æquo animo.
She receiveth the strokes
of _Misfortune_
with the _Shield_, 4.
of _Sufferance_: and
keepeth off the _Passions_,
Excipit ictus
_Infortunii_
_Clypeo_, 4.
_Tolerantiæ_: &
propellit _Affectus_,
the enemies of quietness
with the _Sword_, 5.
of _Valour_.
hostes Euthymiæ
_gladio_, 5.
_Virtutis_.
CXIV.
Patience.
Patientia.
[Illustration]
_Patience_, 1.
endureth _Calamities_, 2.
and _Wrongs_, 3. meekly
like a _Lamb_, 4.
as the Fatherly
_chastisement of God_, 5.
_Patientia_, 1.
tolerat _Calamitates_, 2.
& _Injurias_, 3. humiliter
ut _Agnus_, 4.
tanquam paternam
_ferulam Dei_, 5.
In the meanwhile she leaneth
upon the _Anchor of Hope_, 6.
(as a _Ship_, 7.
tossed by waves in the Sea)
Interim innititur
_Spei Anchoræ_, 6.
(ut _Navis_, 7.
fluctuans mari)
_she prayeth to God_, 8.
weeping,
and expecteth the _Sun_, 10.
after _cloudy weather_, 9.
suffering evils,
and hoping better things.
_Deo supplicat_, 8.
illacrymando,
& expectat _Phœbum_, 10.
post _Nubila_, 9.
ferens mala,
sperans meliora.
On the contrary,
the _impatient person_, 11.
waileth, lamenteth,
_rageth against himself_, 12.
Contra,
_Impatiens_, 11.
plorat, lamentatur,
_debacchatur_, 12. _in seipsum_,
grumbleth like a _Dog_, 13.
and yet doth no good;
at the last he despaireth,
and becometh
_his own Murtherer_, 14.
obmurmurat ut _Canis_, 13.
& tamen nil proficit;
tandem desperat,
& fit
_Autochir_, 14.
Being full of rage he desireth
to revenge wrongs.
Furibundus cupit
vindicare injurias.
CXV.
Humanity.

_Men_ are made

as that of _Turtle-doves_, 6.
hearty, gentle, and
wishing well on both parts.

Froward Men are
hateful, teasty, unpleasant.
contentious, _angry_, 7.
_cruel_, 8.

Morosi homines, sunt
odiosi, torvi, illepidi.
contentiosi, _iracundi_, 7.
_crudeles_, 8.

let no man be _pillaged_, 12.
or _hurt_, 13.
let every one have his own:
these are the precepts
of Justice.
nemo _expiletur_, 12.

Such things as these are forbidden
in _God’s 5th._ and _7th._
_Cammandment_,

Hos _vestit_, 3.

She submitteth her
_wealth_, 8. to her self,
not her self to it,
Subjicit

non se illis,
as the _covetous man_, 9. doth,
who hath,

and is not the _Owner_,
but the _Keeper_ of his goods,
ut _Avarus_, 9.
qui habet,

sed _Custos_ bonorum suorum,
and being unsatiable,
always _scrapeth together_, 10.
with his Nails.

semper _corradit_, 10.
Unguibus suis.
Moreover he spareth
and keepeth,
_hoarding up_, 11.

Sed & parcit

Society betwixt Man and Wife.
Societas Conjugalis.
[Illustration]
_Marriage_

for mutual _help_,

_Matrimonium_
institutum est à Deo

ad mutuum _adjutorium_,

generis humani.
_A young man_ (_a single man_)
being to be married,
should be furnished
either with _Wealth_,
or a _Trade_ and _Science_,
_Vir Juvenis_ (_Cœlebs_)
conjugium initurus,
instructus sit
aut _Opibus_,
aut _Arte_ & _Scientiâ_,
which may serve
for getting a living;
that he may be able
to maintain a _Family_.
quæ sit
de pane lucrando;
ut possit
sustentare _Familiam_.
Then he chooseth himself
a _Maid_ that is _Marriageable_,
(or a _Widow_)
whom he loveth;
Deinde eligit sibi
_Virginem Nubilem_,
(aut _Viduam_)
quam adamat;
nevertheless a greater Regard
is to be had of _Virtue_,
and _Honesty_,
than of _Beauty_ or _Portion_.
ubi tamen major ratio
habenda _Virtutis_
& _Honestatis_,
quàm _Formæ_ aut _Dotis_.
Afterwards, he doth not
betroth her to himself closely,
but entreateth for her
as a _Woer_,
Posthæc, non

sed ambit,
