_Discurs. Modest._ (_Respons. ad Apol._, pp. 7. and 117.) are to page
13., and both the statements are found in page 81. of Watson. Crakanthorp, however (p. 532.), quotes both the works,--_Discurs. Modestus de Jesuit. Anglic._, and Watson. From the many different Latin titles given to this book, it seems certain that it was originally written in English, and that the title was Latinized according to each person's fancy. There is no copy in the Lambeth library. J.B. _Melancthon's Epigram._--Melancthon, in the epigram translated by RUFUS (Vol. i., p. 422.), seems to have borrowed the idea, or, to use the more expressive term of your "Schoolboy", to leave cabbaged from Martial's epigram, terminating thus:-- "Non possunt nostros multæ Faustine lituræ, Emendare jocos: una litura potest." _Martial_, Book iv. 10.
