He has See also:left a See also:quaint See also:account of his privations at Wallingford, and of the severities of See also:Nicholas See also:Udal at Eton. He was elected to King's College, Cambridge, in 1543, a date which has fixed the earliest limit of his See also:birth-See also:year, as he would have been ineligible at nineteen. From King's College he moved to Trinity See also:- HALL

Hall, and on leaving See also:Cam-See also:bridge went to See also:court in the service of William, 1st See also:Baron See also:Paget of Beaudesart, as a musician. After ten years of See also:life at court, he married and settled as a See also:farmer at Cattiwade, See also:Suffolk, near the See also:river See also:Stour, where he wrote his Hundreth See also:Good Pointes of Husbandrie (1557, 1561, 1562, &c.). He never remained See also:long in one See also:place. For his wife's See also:health he removed to See also:Ipswich.

time at See also:West See also:Dereham. He then became a singing See also:man in See also:Norwich Cathedral, where he found a good See also:patron in the See also:dean, See also:John See also:Salisbury. After another experiment in farming at Fairsted, Essex, he removed to See also:London, whence he was driven by the See also:plague of 1572—1573 to find See also:refuge at Trinity Hall, being matriculated as a servant of the college in 1573. At the time of his death he was in See also:possession of a small See also:estate at See also:Chesterton, See also:Cambridgeshire, and his will proves that he was not, as has sometimes been stated, in poverty of any See also:kind, but had in some measure the See also:thrift he preached. Thomas See also:Fuller says he " traded at large in oxen, See also:sheep, dairies, See also:grain of all kinds, to no profit"; that he " spread his See also:bread with all sorts of See also:butter, yet none would stick thereon." He died on the 3rd of May 1580. An erroneous inscription at Manningtree, Essex, asserts that he was sixty-five years old.
The Hundreth Good Pointes was enlarged to A Hundreth good pointes of husbandry, lately maried unto a hundreth good poyntes of huswifery ... the first extant edition of which, " newly corrected and amplified," is dated 157o. In 1573 appeared Five hundreth pointes of good husbandry . . . (reprinted 1577, 1580, 1585, 1586, 1590, &c.). The numerous See also:editions of this See also:book, which contained a metrical autobiography, prove that the homely and See also:practical See also:wisdom of Tusser's See also:verse was appreciated. He gives directions of what is to be done in the See also:farm in every See also:month of the year, and See also:minute instructions for the regulation of domestic affairs in See also:general. The later editions include A See also:dialogue of wyvynge and thryvynge (1562). See also:Modern editions are by William See also:Mayor (1812), by H. M. W. (1848), and by W. See also:Payne and See also:Sidney J. Herrtage for the English See also:Dialect Society (1878).
