sample: As, with the French is called vn-sould: short it is pronounced, a sou; which in Dutch is called a stiiuere; in Latin stiuerus, or sestertius. And ten Dutch stiuers make our English shilling; so that a stiuer is more then our penny. Thus As is taken commonly in French, though with the Romans it is taken otherwise. Calep. (a6r)
