Footnote 312:  “That young men travel under some tutor, or grave servant, I allow well:  so that he be such a one that hath some entrance into the language, and hath been in the country before; whereby he may be able to tell them what things are worthy to be seen in the country where they go:  what acquaintances they are to seek; what exercises or discipline the place yieldeth.  For else young men shall go hooded, and look abroad little” (Essays:  Of Travel).
