Excerpt from Table-Talk: 1689 "This communication of teaching youthe, maketh me to remembre the right worshipfull and my singuler good mayster, Sir Humirey Wingfelde to whom nexte God, I ought to refer for his manifolde beneites bestowed on me, the poore talent of learnyng, whiche god hath lent me: and for his sake do I owe my scruice to all other of the name and noble house of the Wyngfeldes, bothe in woord and dede. Thys worshypfull man hath euer loued and ysed, to haue many children brought vp in learnynge in his house amonges whome I my selfe was one. For whom at terme tymes he woulde bryng downe from London bothe bowe and shaftes. And when they shuld playe he woulde go with them him selfe in to the fyelde, and se them shoote, and he that shot fayrest, shulde haue the best bowe and shaftes, and he that shot ilfauouredlye, shulde be mocked of his felowes, til he shot better." - p. 140. In or about the year 1530, Mr. Bond ... resigned the charge of young Roger, who was now about fifteen years old, and, by the advice and pecuniary aid of his ind patron Sir Antony, he was enabled to enter St. John´s College, Cambridge, at that time the most famous seminary of learning in all England. His tutor was Hugh Fitzherbert, fellow of St. John´s, whose intimate friend, George Pember, took the most lively interest in the young student. George Day, afterwards Bishop of Chichester, Sir John Cheke, Sir Thomas Smith, Dr. Redman, one of the compilers of the Book of Common Prayer, Nicholas Ridley the Martyr, T. Watson Bishop of Lincoln, Pilkington Bishop of Durham, Walter Had-don, John Christopherson, Thomas Wilson, John Scton, and many others, were the distinguished contemporaries of Ascham at Cambridge.-Grant and Giles, idem. He takes his B.A. " Bcingaboy, new Bachelerof arte, I chanced amonges my companions to spcake against the Pope: which matter was than in euery mans mouth, bycause Dr. Haines and Dr. Skiflfe were cum from the Court, to debate the same matter, by preaching and dis putation in the vniuersitic. This hapned the same tyme, when I stoode to be felow there: my taulke came to Dr. Medealfes [Master of St.John´s Coll.] eare: I was called before him and the Scniores: and after greuous rebuke, and some punishment, open warning was geuen to all the fclowes, none to be so hardie to geue me his voice at that election. And yet for all those open threates, the good father himselfe priuilie procured, that I should euen than be chosen felow. But, the election being done, he made countinance of great discontentation thereat. This good mans goodnes, and fatherlie discretion, vsed towardes me that one day, shall neuer out of my remembrance all the dayes of my life. And for the same cause, haue I put it here, in this small record of learning. For next Gods prouidence, surely that day, was by that good fathers meanes, Dies natalis, to me, for the whole foundation of the poore learning I haue, and of all the furderance, that hetherto else where I haue obtayncd." - Scho. fol. 55.
