<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>This [[English]] text was printed in the town of St Albans in 1486. According to [[Wynkyn de Worde]], it was printed by &quot;one sometyme Scholemaster of St. Albans&quot; [1] but nothing further is definite. However, it is claimed that this book is the earliest example of colour [[printing]] in [[Britain]].<br /> <br /> It is divided into three sections<br /> * [[Hunting]]<br /> * [[Falconry|Hawking]]<br /> * [[Heraldry]]<br /> The hunting section ends &quot;explcit dame Julyans Barnes in her boke of huntyng&quot; [1]. This reference to the Lady Prioresse of Sopwell, a nearby [[nun]]nery, is the only clear indication of the one or more authors.<br /> <br /> The book also included a number of previously unrecorded [[English]] collective nouns for [[animal]]s and [[people]] [2],<br /> :e.g. &#039;&#039;a superfluity of nuns, a malapertness (impertinence in modern English) of pedlars, a drunkship of cobblers, a business of ferrets, and an unkindness of ravens&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> ===Quoted texts===<br /> (1) &quot;The Mysteries of the Book of St. Albans&quot; by Lord Liam O&#039;Shea. http://www.farreaches.org/fishing/mystery.html<br /> <br /> (2) &quot;Flocks, Flights, Companies, and Coveys&quot; by Susan Elkin in The Vocabula Review, January 2001, Vol. 3, No. 1. http://www.vocabula.com/VRJAN01Elkin.asp</div>
