Note 854 — Chapter II · THE OUTWARD REFINEMENT OF LIFE.
S. G. C. (Samuel George Chetwynd) Middlemore translation
Comp. e.g. the passages in Sebastian Brant’s Narrenschiff, in the Colloquies of Erasmus, in the Latin poem of Grobianus, &c., and poems on behaviour at table, where, besides descriptions of bad habits, rules are given for good behaviour. For one of these, see C. Weller, Deutsche Gedichte der Jahrhunderts, Tübingen, 1875.
