Concerning their Learning, Astronomy, and Art Magick.
[Of their Learning.] Their Learning is but small.

All they ordinarily learn is to read and to write.

But it is no shame to a man if he can do neither.

[Their Books, and Arts.] Their Books are only of their Religion and of Physick.

Their chief Arts are Astronomy and Magick.
