I have been reading about their school-days. Leaving aside the issue of the beatings-- which everyone thought were so good for them-- they had long days. Pretty much 6 or 7 am to 5ish. With time off for lunch.
Teachers must have been worn out too, by the end of the day.
Kyd never did college he had a good grounding young though, he went to Merchant Taylors which was, like, down the street from him.
A world of little boys. It must have been so lively. Most kids around here walk to school, or take the city bus, or subway. There are few yellow school busses in NYC. Sometimes I see them playing and laughing on the way to school, with bookbags, and lunches, and I imagine the long ago past...
