VIII. and his minister Dacre against Scotland more moral
than these ? Were not their attempts to sow treason and disaffection among the Scotch lords an exact exemplifica- tion of this Utopian policy?" — Brewer, The Reign of Henry VIII. , I, 289.
177: 11. Zapoletes. Lupton first pointed out (252) that this name is derived from Za-, the intensive, and irwXet?, to sell; and therefore means ready sellers (of themselves), or readily sold.
177: 12. five hundred miles from Utopia eastward. Switzerland is about this distance to the southeast of England; and at the very time that More wrote this Henry VIII. was bargaining for the services of the Swiss, the great mercenaries of the period, to fight against their former allies, the French.
177 : 13. hideous. A somewhat too strong word to translate horridus, rough.
177 : 16. abhorring from. Turning in disgust from.

178 : 5. whomwith they be in wages. From whom they are to receive their wages.
178 : 10. a little more money. Between 1500 and 1515 the Swiss had fought as mercenaries both for and against the French.
178 : 23. taken a smack in. Gained a taste for. Cf . note on 14 : 19.
179: 19. join to. Add.
179 : 25. by inheritance. The Spartans had a similar law. Cf . Thucydides, IV, 38. 180: 1. miscarry. Come to grief.
" There miscarried a vessel of our country."
— Shakspere, Merchant of Venice, II, viii, 29.
180 : 12. so that they be. Provided they be. ^
180 : 24. in set field. In battle array.
181 : 4. help one another. More may have derived this idea from what Tacitus says {Germania, VII) was the custom of the Germans : " their squadrons or battalions, instead of being formed by chance or a fortuitous gather- ing, are composed of families and clans."
181 : 8. to their hands. I.e., if the enemy fights through the mercenaries and allies to the Utopians themselves. i
182 : 2. knowledge in chivalry and feats of arms putteth them in a good hope. Knowledge of horsemanship and the use of weapons gives them confidence.
183 : 18. spite of their teeth. Spite of all opposition. An analogous expression is Chaucer's " maugre his head," spite of his head : Knight's Tale, 1169 and 2618.
184 : 7. softly. Quietly. Robynson failed to trans- | late More's tali seruato or dine, keeping such order.
184 : 15. adventures. Unexpected attacks.
184 : 24. strongly and surely. It is noteworthy that the Utopians use the weapons that won so many victories for the English, bows and arrows and pole-axes.
185 : 1. which be mortal. Hence when Theseus, in

Chaucer's Knight's Tale (2537-2560) so modified his order as to make the contest between Palamon and Arcite and their knights a tournament rather than a battle, pole- axes were among the weapons that might not be brought into the lists.
185 : 2. foins. Thrusts. The long sword was merely a cutting weapon; the pole-axe, being a combination of spear and axe, was used for both thrusts and cutting blows.
186 : 9. lay it upon their necks that be conquered. Make the conquered pay for it. Cf. note on 77 : 13.
186: 16. ducats. The gold ducat, so named because first coined by Italian dukes, was worth about $2.25, so that this sum would be some $1,575,000, at a time when money had about eight times its present purchasing power.
187 : 12. other of the planets. As has been stated (132 : 3), More believed in the geocentric conception of the universe, according to which the sun was merely a planet that revolved around the earth. Caesar says of the Germans : " They rank in the number of the gods those alone whom they behold, and by whose instrumentality they are obviously benefited, namely, the sun, fire, and the* moon." — De Bello Gallico, VI, 21. Bohn tr., 151.
188 : 1. Neither they give. Nor do they give.
188 : 8. Mythra. Having said that the Utopian lan- guage resembled the Persian (151 : 5), More carries out his fiction by giving to the chief deity the name of the Persian sun-god.
188: 21. as he was minded. About the time he had made up his mind.
189 : 12. Christ instituted. " This is too strong a ren- dering of Christo placuisse : 4 that Christ approved of a com- munity of living among his followers.' " — Lupton, 269.
189 : 14. the lightest Christian companies. among monks and friars. Cf . Introduction, xii and xiii, on More's leaning towards the monastic life.
189 : 17. us four. Originally the company that left

the fort consisted of Hythloday and five companions (22 : 5). Note the verisimilitude given by the realistic touch of making two die during their travels.
190: 1. Christian bishop. Cf. the statement in M ore's letter to Giles (12 : 23) that 44 a devout and godly man" intended to sue the Pope to make him bishop of Utopia!
190 : 7. our company. Not used in the same sense as before (189 : 18), but to mean association or congregation of Christians.
190 : 9. more earnest affection. Greater zeal.
190: 14. devilish. The sense of the Latin is better given by Burnet (176), 44 impious and sacrilegious persons.' ' More seems to be gently satirizing the frequent over- zealous proselyte.
190:22. his own religion. Lupton gives (271) as a more accurate translation of this important sentence :
For they reckon this among their most ancient (or, most important) institutions, that no one's religion should be an injury to him ; " and says, 44 The passage is one to be noted, not only as bearing on More's own views of religious toleration, but as laying down a distinction, sig- nificant as coming from him, between punishing an act as an offence against religion, and as an offence against the public peace of the realm."
190 : 23. King. Cf . note on 87 : 3.
191 : 3. every several sect took several parts. Each different sect fought independently.
191 : 4. the only occasion of. All that gave opportunity for.
19L; 18. King. Cf. note on 87 : 3.
192:5. to be true. 44 More's tone is too serious, and I the arguments he makes Utopus employ too solid and convincing, to allow us to regard all this as merely proper to the romance. On the other hand, if the words express to us the author's own thoughts on the subject of religious toleration, how are we to reconcile them with his avowed principles at a later period? " — Lupton, 272.

195 : 8. burn the bodies. As this was the mode used by the Persians for disposing of corpses, once again More is carrying out his fiction that the Utopians had points in common with the Persians.

200 : 18. women. Whatever may have been his per- sonal opinion at the time he wrote this, More in his contro- versial writings against the Protestants opposed the ad- mission of women to the priesthood and the marriage of the clergy.
201 : 3. after so singular a sort. In such an especial manner.
201 : 21. mean virtues. Ordinary virtues.
202 : 6. a bloody victory. This is. a sharp satire on some of the prelates of More's time, who not only incited their princes to war but personally fought with their armies.

203 : 9. cynemernes. Lupton suggests (28§J_that this word is derived from 44 Kvvynepivbs, 4 the dog's day of the month,' strictly the night between the old and new, when food was placed out at the cross-roads, and the barking of the dogs was taken as a sign of the approach of Hecate."

Separation of the sexes was the common practice in the churches of More's time. 44 Whereas upon the holy-days, during his high office of Chancellorship, one of his gentlemen, when service at the church was done, ordinarily used to come to my Lady, his wife's pew, and say unto her, 4 Madam, my Lord is gone,' the next holy-day after the surrender of his office and departure of his gentlemen, he came unto my Lady, his wife's pew himself, and making a low curtsey, said unto her, 4 Madam, my Lord is gone.'

207: 17. sing praises unto God. His piety and his love of music led More, even when chancellor, to sing in the choir of the parish church at Chelsea. "This Duke [of Norfolk] coming on a time to Chelsea to dine with him, fortuned to find him at the church, singing in the choir, with a surplice on his back ; to whom after service, as they went homewards together arm in arm, the Duke said, ' God's body, God's body, my Lord Chancellor, a parish clerk, a parish clerk! You dishonor the Kin£ and his office/ * Nay/ quoth Sir Thomas More, smiling upon the Duke ; 4 your Grace may not think that the King, your master and mine, will with me for serving of God, his master, be offended, or thereby account his office dis- honored.' " — Roper, 236.
208 : 6. the hearers' minds. Both Plato (Republic, III, 398-401) and Aristotle (Politics, VIII, 5) have similar pas- sages on the power of music ; but neither was necessarily in the mind of such a music-lover as More when he wrote this.

211 : 2. justice. In Plato's Republic, Socrates is led to sketch the ideal state by an endeavor to define justice.

It is not his ideal state, but a realistic account of an imaginary govern- ment, whose institutions, laws, and customs, he regarded, in the words of Sir James Mackintosh, " with almost every | possible degree of approbation and shade of assent ; from the frontiers of serious and entire belief, through grada- tions of descending plausibility, where the lowest are scarcely more than the exercises of the ingenuity, and to , which some wild paradoxes are appended, either as a I vehicle, or as an easy means (if necessary) of disavowing the serious intention of the whole of this Platonic fiction."

He died within a year of writing it, leaving a large bequest for the foundation of a college for the teaching of Hebrew, Greek, and Latin in the University of Louvain.

230 : 10. Anemolius. From dye/tdXiot , windy ; used by Homer to designate a braggart. Lupton says (xciii), " It is probable that in calling Anemolius ' poet laureate ' here, a hit is intended at John Skelton," a writer of irreg- ular verse, " who bore that title in More's time. . . . Skelton was the great opponent of More's friend Lily." Note that there is nothing to denote that Anemolius was " the Utopian laureate," as has been stated by several commentators; that he was' Hythloday's nephew is in the way of such an interpretation.

231 : 1. Gerard Noviomage. Lupton states (320) that Gerhard Geldenhauer (1482-1542), called Noviomagus from the place of his birth, was a teacher of philosophy | in the University of Louvain, who became court chaplain of King Charles of Austria. Later he became a Lutheran and taught at Augsburg and Marburg.
231 : 14. Cornelius Graphey. Born at Alst in Flan- ders in 1482, Cornelius Schreiber, whose name was Latinized as Grapheus, became secretary of Antwerp. In 1520 he published a work favoring the Reformation and in consequence was imprisoned at Brussels until he recanted in 1522. He died at Antwerp in 1558. He was "eminent in the arts and sciences, a historian, orator, poet, and musician, master of several languages, and on terms of intimate friendship with the celebrated Erasmus." — Ullmann, Reformers before the Reformation, I, 136.
