NO FOOT, NO HORSE
Of the seven ailments mentioned in this manuscript, four involve the horse’s feet or hooves. There is an old saying among horsemen, “No foot, no horse.”. Despite their size and strength, horses are notoriously fragile animals. Four slender legs and small hooves must bear the horse’s full weight of eight hundred to two thousandpounds.
LEARNING TO WRITE THE ALPHABET Learning to write the alphabet is one of the first stages of writing literacy. For early modern English children, this meant first learning to read the letters of the alphabet (printed in black letter) from a hornbook. They then learned to write the letters of the alphabet in one or both of the two main handwritten scripts, WELCOME TO THE NEXT PHASE OF SHAKESPEARE’S WORLD By Heather Wolfe (@hwolfe on Talk) Welcome to the next phase of Shakespeare’s World!

The portugall farts appear to be the same thing as the “farts of Portugal” OUR FIRST DISCOVERY!
