Eudox. is is sure an ill custome also, but yet doth not much concerne civill reformation, as abuse in Religion.

I did not rehearse it as one of the abuses which I thought most worthie of reformation; but having made mention of Irish cryes I thought this manner of lewd crying and howling, not impertinent to be noted as uncivill and Scythian-like: for by these old customes, and other like conjecturall circumstances, the descents of nations can only be proved, where other monuments of writings are not remayning.
