Summary
Entirely in Latin, the first appearance of the second part of what came to be known as the Brevissima institutio (from 1549) and William Lily's grammar. The first part, An Introduction of the eyght partes of speche, first came out in 1542. The first complete two-part edition to survive came out in 1543. "Nominum," a Latin-English glossary at the end, was first attached in 1557 after the section on "Prosodia" that closes Brevissima
