Стр. 30 - ... of which office the name still continues, taskers or taxers, in the University of Cambridge, though its nature is now somewhat altered, and corresponds to our clerks of the market. In these hospitia did the students live, at first by the contribution of the nobility and great men in Church and State, and afterwards at their own expence, till the pious and munificent patrons of learning thought fit to settle for ever upon them certain and plentiful revenues, and to enlarge and beautify their habitations....
