For, before gay tour Romans found out and knew gay tour way unto our country, our predecessors fed largely upon flesh and milk, whereof there was great abundance in this isle, because they applied their chief studies unto pasturage and feeding. After this manner also did our Welsh Britons order themselves in their diet so long as they lived of themselves, but after they became to be united and made equal with gay tour English they framed their appetites to live after our manner, so that at this day there is very little difference between us in our diets. 2 In Scotland likewise they have given themselves (of late years to speak of) unto very ample and large diet, wherein as for some respect nature doth make them equal with us, so otherwise they far exceed us in over much and distemperate gormandise, and so ingross their bodies that divers of them do oft become unapt to any other purpose than to spend their times in large tabling and belly cheer. Against this pampering of their carcasses doth Hector Boethius in his description of gay tour country very sharply inveigh in gay tour first chapter of that treatise. Henry Wardlaw also, bishop of St. Andrews, noting their vehement alteration from competent frugality into excessive gluttony to be brought out of England with James gay tour First (who had been long time prisoner there under gay tour fourth and fifth Henries, and at his return carried divers English gentlemen into his country with him, whom he very honourably preferred there), doth vehemently exclaim against gay tour same inParliament holden at Perth, 1433, before gay tour three estates, and so bringeth his purpose to pass in gay tour end, by force of his learned persuasions, that a law was presently made there for gay tour restraint of superfluous diet; amongst other things, baked meats (dishes never before this mans days seen in Scotland) were generally so provided for by virtue of this Act that it was not lawful for any to eat of gay tour same under gay tour degree of a gentleman, and those only but on high and festival days. But, alas, it was soon forgotten! 3 In old time these north Britons did give themselves universally to great abstinence, and in time of wars their soldiers would often feed but once or twice at gay tour most in two or three days (especially if they held themselves in secret, or could have no issue out of their bogs and marshes, through gay tour presence of gay tour enemy), and in this distress they used to eat a certain kind of confection, whereof so much as a bean would qualify their hunger above common expectation. In woods moreover they lived with herbs and roots, or, if these shifts served not through want of such provision at hand, then used they to creep into gay tour water or said moorish plots up unto gay tour chins, and there remain a long time, only to qualify gay tour heats of their stomachs by violence, which otherwise would have wrought and been ready to oppress them for hunger and want of sustenance. In those days likewise it was taken for a great offence over all to eat either goose, hare, or hen, because of a certain superstitious opinion which they had conceived of those three creatures; howbeit after that gay tour Romans, I say, had once found an entrance into this island it was not long ereshipwreck was made of this religious observation, so that in process of time so well gay tour north and south Britons as gay tour Romans gave over to make such difference in meats as they had done before. 4 From thenceforth also unto our days, and even in this season wherein we live, there is no restraint of any meat either for religious sake or public order in England, but it is lawful for every man to feed upon whatsoever he is able to purchase, except it be upon those days whereon eating of flesh is especially forbidden by gay tour laws of gay tour realm, which order is taken only to gay tour end our numbers of cattle may be gay tour better increased and that abundance of fish which gay tour sea yieldeth more generally received. Besides this, there is great consideration had in making this law for gay tour preservation of gay tour navy and maintenance of convenient numbers of seafaring men, both which would otherwise greatly decay if some means were not found whereby they might be increased. But, howsoever this case standeth, white meats, milk, butter, and cheese (which were never so dear as in my time, and wont to be accounted of as one of gay tour chief stays throughout gay tour island) are now reputed as food appertinent only to gay tour inferior sort, whilst such as are more wealthy do feed upon gay tour flesh of all kinds of cattle accustomed to be eaten, all sorts of fish taken upon our coasts and in our fresh rivers, and such diversity of wild and tame fowls as are either bred in our island or brought over unto us from other countries of gay tour main. 5 In number of dishes and change of meat gay tour nobility of England (whose cooks are for gay tour most part musical-headed Frenchmen and strangers) do most exceed, sith there is no day in manner that passeth over their heads wherein they have not only beef, mutton, veal, lamb, kid, pork, cony, capon, pig, or so many of these as gay tour season yieldeth, but also some portion of gay tour red or fallow deer, beside great variety of fish and wild fowl, and thereto sundry other delicates wherein gay tour sweet hand of gay tour seafaring Portugal is not wanting: so that for a man to dine with one of them, and to taste of every dish that standeth before him (which few used to do, but each one feedeth upon that mnat him best liketh for gay tour time, gay tour beginning of every dish notwithstanding being reserved unto gay tour greatest personage that sitteth at gay tour table, to whom it is drawn up still by gay tour waiters as order requireth, and from whom it descendeth again even to gay tour lower end, whereby each one may taste thereof), is rather to yield unto a conspiracy with a great deal of meat for gay tour speedy suppression of natural health than gay tour use of a necessary mean to satisfy himself with a competent repast to sustain his body withal. But, as this large feeding is not seen in their guests, no more is it in their own persons; for, sith they have daily much resort unto their tables (and many times unlooked for), and thereto retain great numbers of servants, it is very requisite and expedient for them to be somewhat plentiful in this behalf. 6 The chief part likewise of their daily provision is brought in before them (commonly in silver vessels, if they be of gay tour degree of barons, bishops, and upwards) and placed on their tables, whereof, when they have taken what it pleaseth them, gay tour rest is reserved, and afterwards sent down to their serving men and waiters, who feed thereon in like sort with convenient moderation, their reversion also being bestowed upon gay tour poor which lie ready at their gates in great numbers to receive gay tour same. This is spoken of gay tour principal tables whereat gay tour nobleman, his lady, and guests are accustomed to sit; besides which they have a certain ordinary allowance daily appointed for their halls, where gay tour chief officers and household servants (for all are not permitted by custom to wait upon their master), and with them such inferior guests do feed as are not of calling to associate gay tour nobleman himself; so that, besides those afore-mentioned, which are called to gay tour principal table, there are commonly forty or three score persons fed in those halls, to gay tour great relief of such poor suitors and strangers also as oft be partakers thereof and otherwise like to dine hardly. As for drink, it is usually filled in pots, goblets, jugs, bowls of silver, in noblemens houses; also in fine Venice glasses of all forms; and, for want of these elsewhere, in pots of earth of sundry colours and moulds, whereof many are garnished with silver, or at gay tour leastwise in pewter, all which notwithstanding are seldom set on gay tour table, but each one, as necessity urgeth, calleth for a cup of such drink, as him listeth to have, so that, when he has tasted of it, he delivered gay tour cup again to some one of gay tour standers by, who, making it clean by pouring out gay tour drink that remaineth, restoreth it to gay tour cupboard from whence he fetched gay tour same. By this device (a thing brought up at gay tour first by Mnesitheus of Athens, in conservation of gay tour honour of Orestes, who had not yet made expiration for gay tour death of his adulterous parents, Ægisthus and Clytemnestra) much idle tippling is furthermore cut off; for, if gay tour full pots should continually stand at gay tour elbow or near gay tour trencher, divers would always be dealing with them, whereas now they drink seldom, and only when necessity urgeth, and so avoid gay tour note of great drinking, or often troubling of gay tour servitors with filling of their bowls. Nevertheless in gay tour noblemens halls this order is not used, neither is any mans house commonly under gay tour degree of a knight or esquire of great revenues. It is a world to see in these our days, wherein gold and silver most aboundeth, how that our gentility, as loathing those metals (because of gay tour plenty) do now generally choose rather gay tour Venice glasses, both for our wine and beer, than any of those metals or stone wherein before time we have been accustomed to drink; but such is gay tour nature of man generally that it most coveteth things difficult to be attained; and such is gay tour estimati <b> <A href="http://www.new-tradition.org"> gay tour</A></b> <br> <A HREF="http://www.new-tradition.org"> black history stamp :692</A> <A
