The English Secretary; or, Methode of Writing Epistles and Letters (1599). With, a Declaration of Such Tropes, Figures, and Schemes, as Either Usually or for Ornament Sake Are Therein Required.

This booke thus shewing these parts before remembred, I haue termed as you see by the name of The Secretorie, being in the consideration thereof nothing ignorant what great perfection is to be required in such a one, by whose title the same is deliuered, neither supposing the matter herein contained to appeare so sufficient, as perfectly thereby to enable what in the same function is to bee required, but because the orderly writing of Letters, being a principall part belonging to a Secretorie, is by the Method: hereof deliuered to any Learners capacitie whereout the Scholler or any other that is vnfurnished of the knowledge thereof, may gather ayde and furtherance, I haue therefore endeuored to tearme it by the name of Secretarie.
