Although the work is important in being the first collection of its kind, it was never deemed a particularly useful work. At only 120 pages, it listed 3,000 words along with very brief (often single-word) definitions. Its claimed purpose was "for the benefit and helpe of Ladies, Gentlewomen, or other unskillful persons". The words chosen were quite arbitrary and often obscure. Within a few decades, many other English dictionaries followed. EXTERNAL LINKS
