The sexton, no doubt, like the country parish clerks, kept a reading school in this chamber, which was apparently one of five over the wood-house (astelaria, which Dr. Fowler says means the carpenter's shop; but astel-wood is a wellknown word for fire-wood). He prints Segristan, which is not what is here written.
