About the Technical Review Team

This is the fifth edition of the book that we’ve cooked up. The first version
we worked on was for Java 2. Then we updated the book for the SCJP 5,
again for the SCJP 6, then for the OCA 7 and OCP 7 exams, and now for the
OCA 8 and OCP 8 exams. Every step of the way, we were unbelievably
fortunate to have fantastic JavaRanch.com-centric technical review teams at
our sides. Over the course of the last 15 years, we’ve been “evolving” the
book more than rewriting it. Many sections from our original work on the
Java 2 book are still intact. On the following pages, we’d like to acknowledge
the members of the various technical review teams who have saved our bacon
over the years.

About the Java 2 Technical Review Team

Johannes de Jong has been the leader of our technical review teams forever
and ever. (He has more patience than any three people we know.) For the
Java 2 book, he led our biggest team ever. Our sincere thanks go out to the
following volunteers who were knowledgeable, diligent, patient, and picky,
picky, picky!
Rob Ross, Nicholas Cheung, Jane Griscti, Ilja Preuss, Vincent Brabant,
Kudret Serin, Bill Seipel, Jing Yi, Ginu Jacob George, Radiya, LuAnn
Mazza, Anshu Mishra, Anandhi Navaneethakrishnan, Didier Varon, Mary
McCartney, Harsha Pherwani, Abhishek Misra, and Suman Das.

Our top honors go to Kristin Stromberg—every time you see a
semicolon used correctly, tip your hat to Kristin. Next up is Burk Hufnagel
who fixed more code than we care to admit. Bill Mietelski and Gian Franco
Casula caught every kind of error we threw at them—awesome job, guys!
Devender Thareja made sure we didn’t use too much slang, and Mark
Spritzler kept the humor coming. Mikalai Zaikin and Seema Manivannan
made great catches every step of the way, and Marilyn de Queiroz and
Valentin Crettaz both put in another stellar performance (saving our butts
yet again).

Marcelo Ortega, Jef Cumps (another veteran), Andrew Monkhouse, and

Jeroen Sterken rounded out our crew of Superstars—thanks to you all. Jim
Yingst was a member of the Sun exam creation team, and he helped us write
and review some of the twistier questions in the book (bwa-ha-ha-ha).
As always, every time you read a clean page, thank our reviewers, and if
you do catch an error, it’s most certainly because your authors messed up.
And oh, one last thanks to Johannes. You rule, dude!

WIL. Thomalin, I pity thy
plight,
Perdie with Love thou didest
fight;
I know him by a token:
For once I heard my father
say,
How he him caught upon a
day,
(Whereof he will be
wroken,)
Entangled in a fowling net,
Which he for carrion crows
had set
That in our pear-tree
haunted:
Then said, he was a winged
lad,
But bow and shafts as then
none had,
Else had he sore been
daunted.
But see, the welkin thicks
apace,
And stooping Phœbus
steeps his face;
It's time to haste us
homeward.
WILLY'S EMBLEME.
To be wise and eke to love,
Is granted scarce to gods
above.
THOMALIN'S EMBLEME.
Of honey and of gall in love
there is store;

APRIL · AEGLOGA QUARTA
APRIL. ÆGLOGA QUARTA. ARGUMENT.

This Æglogue is purposely intended to the honour and praise of our

most gracious sovereign, Queen Elizabeth. The speakers hereof be
Hobbinol and Thenot, two shepheards: the which Hobbinol, being
beforementioned greatly to have loved Colin, is here set forth more
largely, complaining him of that boy's great misadventure in love;
whereby his mind was alienated and withdrawn not only from him,
who most loved him, but also from all former delights and studies,
as well in pleasant piping, as cunning rhyming and singing, and
other his laudable exercises. Whereby he taketh occasion, for proof
of his more excellency and skill in poetry, to record a song, which
the said Colin sometime made in honour of her Majesty, whom
abruptly he termeth Elisa.

THENOT. HOBBINOL.

THENOT.
Tell me, good Hobbinol,
what gars thee
greet?
What! hath some wolf thy
tender lambs ytorn?
Or is thy bagpipe broke,
that sounds so
sweet?
Or art thou of thy loved
lass forlorn?
Or be thine eyes attemper'd
to the year,
 Quenching the gasping
furrows' thirst with rain?
Like April shower, so stream
the trickling tears
Adown thy cheek, to
quench thy thirsty pain.
HOB. Nor this, nor that, so
much doth make me
mourn,
But for the lad, whom
long I lov'd so dear,
Now loves a lass that all his
love doth scorn:
He, plunged in pain, his
tressed locks doth tear;
Shepheard's delights he
doth them all
forswear;
His pleasant pipe, which
made us merriment,
He wilfully hath broke, and
doth forbear
His wonted songs
wherein he all outwent.
THE. What is he for a lad
you so lament?
Is love such pinching pain
to them that prove?
And hath he skill to make so
excellent,
Yet hath so little skill to
bridle love?
HOB. Colin thou kenst, the
southern shepheard's
boy;
 Him Love hath wounded
with a deadly dart:
Whilome on him was all my
care and joy,
Forcing with gifts to win
his wanton heart.
But now from me his
madding mind is
start,
And wooes the widow's
daughter of the glen;
So now fair Rosalind hath
bred his smart;
So now his friend is
changed for a frenne.
THE. But if his ditties be so
trimly dight,
I pray thee, Hobbinol,
record some one,
The whiles our flocks do
graze about in sight,
And we close shrouded in
this shade alone.
HOB. Contented I: then will
I sing his lay
Of fair Elisa, queen of
shepheards all,
Which once he made as by
a spring he lay,
And tuned it unto the
waters' fall.

"Ye dainty Nymphs, that in

this blessed brook
Do bathe your breast,
Forsake your watry bowers,
and hither look,
At my request.
And eke you virgins, that on
Parnass dwell,
Whence floweth Helicon,
the learned well,
Help me to blaze
Her worthy praise,
Which in her sex doth all
excel.

"Of fair Elisa be your silver

song,
That blessed wight,
The flower of virgins; may
she flourish long
In princely plight!
For she is Syrinx' daughter
without spot,
Which Pan, the shepheards'
god, of her begot:
So sprung her grace
Of heavenly race,
No mortal blemish may her
blot.

"See, where she sits upon

the grassy green,
(O seemly sight!)
Yclad in scarlet, like a
maiden queen,
And ermines white:
Upon her head a crimson
coronet,
With damask roses and
daffadillies set;
Bay leaves between,
And primroses green,
Embellish the sweet violet.

"Tell me, have ye seen her

angelic face,
Like Phœbe fair?
Her heavenly haveour, her
princely grace,
Can you well compare?
The red rose medled with
the white yfere,
In either cheek depeincten
lively cheer:
Her modest eye,
Her majesty,
Where have you seen the
like but there?

"I saw Phœbus; thrust out

his golden head,
Upon her to gaze;
But, when he saw how
broad her beams did
spread,
It did him amaze.
He blush'd to see another
sun below,
Ne durst again his fiery face
out show.
Let him, if he dare,
His brightness compare
With hers, to have the
overthrow.
"Shew thyself, Cynthia, with
thy silver rays,
And be not abash'd:
When she the beams of her
beauty displays,
O how art thou dash'd!
But I will not match her
with Latona's seed;
Such folly great sorrow to
Niobe did breed.
And she is a stone,
And makes daily moan,
Warning all other to take
heed.

"Pan may be proud that

ever he begot
Such a bellibone;
And Syrinx rejoice, that ever
was her lot
To bear such an one.
Soon as my younglings
crying for the dam,
To her will I offer a
milkwhite lamb;
She is my goddess plain,
And I her shepheard's
swain,
Albe forswonk and forswat I
am.

"I see Calliope speed her to

the place,
Where my goddess
shines;
And after her the other
Muses trace,
With their violins.
Be they not bay-branches
which they do bear,
All for Elisa in her hand to
wear?
So sweetly they play,
And sing all the way,
That it a heaven is to hear.

"Lo, how finely the Graces

can it foot
To the instrument:
They dancen deftly, and
singen soote,
In their merriment.
Wants not a fourth Grace,
to make the dance
even?
Let that room to my Lady
be yeven
She shall be a Grace,
To fill the fourth place,
And reign with the rest in
heaven.

"And whither runs this bevy

of ladies bright,
Ranged in a row?
They be all Ladies of the
Lake behight,
That unto her go.
Chloris, that is the chiefest
nymph of all,
Of olive branches bears a
coronal:
Olives be for peace
When wars do surcease:
Such for a princess be
principal.

"Ye shepheards' daughters,

that dwell on the
green,
Hie you there apace:
Let none come there but
that virgins bene,
To adorn her grace:
And, when you come
whereas she is in
place,
See that your rudeness do
not you disgrace:
Bind your fillets fast,
And gird in your waist,
For more fineness, with a
tawdry 5 lace.

"Bring hither the pink and

purple columbine,
With gelliflowers;
Bring coronations, and
sops-in-wine,
Worn of paramours:
Strow me the ground with
daffadowndillies,
And cowslips, and kingcups,
and loved lillies:
The pretty paunce,
And the chevisance,
Shall match with the fair
flower delice.

"Now rise up, Elisa, decked

as thou art
In royal array;
And now ye dainty damsels
may depart
Each one her way.
I fear I have troubled your
troops too long;
Let Dame Elisa thank you
for her song:
And, if you come hither
When damsines I gather,
I will part them all you
among."

THE. And was thilk same

song of Colin's own
making?
Ah! foolish boy! that is
with love yblent;
Great pity is, he be in such
taking,
For naught caren that be
so lewdly bent.
HOB. Sicker I hold him for a
greater fon,
That loves the thing he
cannot purchase.
But let us homeward, for
night draweth on,
And twinkling stars the
daylight hence chase.

O quam et memorem virgo!
HOBBINOL'S EMBLEME.
O Dea certe!
MAY · AEGLOGA QUINTA
MAY. ÆGLOGA QUINTA. ARGUMENT.

In this fifth Æglogue, under the person of two shepheards, Piers and
Palinode, be represented two forms of Pastors or Ministers, or the
Protestant and the Catholic; whose chief talk standeth in reasoning,
whether the life of the one must be like the other; with whom
having shewed, that it is dangerous to maintain any fellowship, or
give too much credit to their colourable and feigned good-will, he
telleth him a tale of the Fox, that, by such a counterpoint of
craftiness, deceived and devoured the credulous Kid.

PALINODE. PIERS.

PALINODE.
Is not thilk the merry month
of May,
When love-lads masken in
fresh array?
How falls it, then, we no
merrier bene,
Alike as others, girt in
gaudy green?
Our bloncket liveries be all
too sad
For thilk same season,
when all is yclad
With pleasance; the ground
with grass, the
woods
With green leaves, the
bushes with
 blooming buds.
Youth's folk now flocken in
every where,
To gather May-buskets and
smelling brere;
And home they hasten the
posts to dight,
And all the kirk-pillars ere
day-light,
With hawthorn buds, and
sweet eglantine,
And garlands of roses, and
sops-in-wine.
Such merrimake holy saints
doth queme,
But we here sitten as
drown'd in dream.
PIERS. For younkers,
Palinode, such follies
fit,
But we tway be men of
elder wit.
PAL. Sicker this morrow, no
longer ago,
I saw a shoal of shepheards
outgo
With singing, and shouting,
and jolly cheer:
Before them yode a lusty
tabrere,
That to the many a horn-
pipe play'd,
Whereto they dancen each
one with his maid.
To see those folks make
such jovisance,
Made my heart after the
pipe to dance:
Then to the green wood
they speeden them
all,
To fetchen home May with
their musical;
And home they bringen in a
royal throne,
Crowned as king; and his
queen attone
Was Lady Flora, on whom
did attend
A fair flock of faeries, and a
fresh bend
Of lovely nymphs. (O that I
were there,
To helpen the ladies their
Maybush bear!)
Ah! Piers, be not thy teeth
on edge, to think
How great sport they
gainen with little
swink?
PIERS. Perdie, so far am I
from envy,
That their fondness inly I
pity:
Those faitours little
regarden their
charge,
While they, letting their
sheep run at large,
Passen their time, that
should be sparely
spent,
In lustihed and wanton
merriment.
Thilk same be shepheards
for the devil's stead,
That playen while their
flocks be unfed:
Well it is seen their sheep
be not their own,
That letten them run at
random alone:
But they be hired for little
pay
Of other, that caren as little
as they,
What fallen the flock, so
they have the fleece,
And get all the gain, paying
but a piece.
I muse, what account both
these will make;
The one for the hire, which
he doth take,
And th' other for leaving his
Lord's task,
When great Pan account of
shepheards shall ask.
PAL. Sicker, now I see thou
speakest of spite,
All for thou lackest somdele
their delight.
I (as I am) had rather be
envied,
All were it of my foe, than
fonly pitied;
And yet, if need were, pitied
would be,
Rather than other should
scorn at me;
For pitied is mishap that
n'as remedy,
But scorned be deeds of
fond foolery.
What shoulden shepheards
other things tend,
Than, sith their God his
good does them
send,
Reapen the fruit thereof,
that is pleasure,
The while they here liven at
ease and leisure?
For, when they be dead,
their good is ygoe,
They sleepen in rest, well
as other moe:
Then with them wends
what they spent in
cost,
But what they left behind
them is lost.
Good is no good, but if it be
spend;
God giveth good for none
other end.
PIERS. Ah! Palinode, thou
art a world's child:
Who touches pitch, must
needs be defil'd;
But shepheards (as
Algrind 7 used to
say)
Must not live alike as men
of the lay.
With them it sits to care for
their heir,
Enaunter their heritage do
impair:
They must provide for
means of
maintenance,
And to continue their wont
countenance:
But shepheard must walk
another way,
Sike worldly sovenance he
must for-say.
The son of his loins why
should he regard
To leave enriched with that
he hath spar'd?
Should not thilk God, that
gave him that good,
Eke cherish his child, if in
his ways he stood?
For if he mislive in lewdness
and lust,
Little boots all the wealth,
and the trust,
That his father left by
inheritance;
All will be soon wasted with
misgovernance:
But through this, and other
their miscreance,
They maken many a wrong
chevisance,
Heaping up waves of wealth
and woe,
The floods whereof shall
them overflow.
Sike men's folly I cannot
compare
Better than to the ape's
foolish care,
That is so enamoured of her
young one,
(And yet, God wot, such
cause had she none,)
That with her hard hold,
and strait embracing,
She stoppeth the breath of
her youngling.
So oftentimes, whenas
good is meant,
Evil ensueth of wrong
intent.
The time was once, and
may again retorn,
(For ought may happen,
that hath been
beforn,)
When shepheards had none
inheritance,
Ne of land nor fee in
sufferance,
But what might arise of the
bare sheep,
(Were it more or less) which
they did keep.
Well ywis was it with
shepheards then:
Nought having, nought
feared they to
forego;
For Pan himself was their
inheritance,
And little them served for
their maintenance.
The shepheards' God so
well them guided,
That of nought they were
unprovided;
Butter enough, honey, milk,
and whey,
And their flocks' fleeces
them to array:
But tract of time, and long
prosperity,
(That nurse of vice, this of
insolency,)
Lulled the shepheards in
such security,
That, not content with loyal
obeisance,
Some gan to gape for
greedy governance,
And match them self with
mighty potentates,
Lovers of lordship, and
troublers of states:
Then gan shepheards'
swains to look aloft,
And leave to live hard, and
learn to ligg soft:
Then, under colour of
shepheards,
somewhile
There crept in wolves, full
of fraud and guile,
That often devoured their
own sheep,
And often the shepheards
that did them keep:
This was the first source of
shepheards' sorrow,
That now nill be quit with
bail nor borrow.
PAL. Three things to bear
be very burdenous,
But the fourth to forbear is
outrageous:
Women, that of love's
longing once lust,
Hardly forbearen, but have
it they must:
So when choler is inflamed
with rage,
Wanting revenge, is hard to
assuage:
And who can counsel a
thirsty soul,
With patience to forbear the
offer'd bowl?
But of all burdens, that a
man can bear,
Most is, a fool's talk to bear
and to hear.
I ween the giant has not
such a weight,
That bears on his shoulders
the heaven's height.
Thou findest fault where
n'is to be found,
And buildest strong work
upon a weak ground:
Thou railest on right
withouten reason,
And blamest them much for
small encheason.
How shoulden shepheards
live, if not so?
What? should they pinen in
pain and woe?
Nay, say I thereto, by my
dear borrow,
If I may rest, I nill live in
sorrow.
Sorrow ne need be
hastened on,
For he will come, without
calling, anon,
While times enduren of
tranquillity,
Usen we freely our felicity;
For, when approachen the
stormy stowres,
We must with our shoulders
bear off the sharp
showers;
And, sooth to sayn, nought
seemeth sike strife,
That shepheards so witen
each other's life,
And layen their faults the
worlds beforn,
The while their foes do each
