Héere is made a right perfect and absolute description of the faultes that raigne in the mindes of the populer sortes: for not séeing into the profit that ryseth to y• Com∣mon-wealth by the knowledge of the liberall Sciences, they hold learning and learned men in contempt, counting nothing necessarie, but what is mecanicall, whereof it is truelie sayd: Scientia non habet immicum praeter ignorantem: againe, they brooke not the Nobilitie, as impatient of su∣periours, and as men wishing euery Common-wealth were a Democracie, striue to be Lords themselues, ay∣ming at such desires by enuie. Desirous they are of change, both of Magistrates and of Lawes, as contented with nothing but foode and noueltie.
