Speculum principis (Skelton book)

Speculum Principis (A First Mirror) was a guide to 'proper princely behaviour' written by John Skelton in August 1501. Skelton was a well-known poet and had been appointed as tutor to Henry VII's second son, Prince Henry, who would later reign as Henry VIII of England. A copy is now in the British Museum, which may or may not be exactly the same as the one given to Henry.
