This tract, which has been reprinted in facsimile, is perhaps the rarest of
all those of an historical character relating to Virginia, except Rich's metrical
narrative. It would appear from the dedication, which is addressed to Sir Thomas Smith,
that the attempt to found the Colony of Virginia was the occasion of no small
amount of ridicule, and that it was not spared by the dramatists of the day. The
author thus begins his dedicatory epistle : —
" It is come to passe (right WorshipfuU) with the businesse and plantation of
Virginea, as it is commonly seene in the attempt and progresse of all other most
excellent things, (which is) to be accompanied with manifold difHculties, crosses and
disasters, being such as are appointed by the highest prouidence as an exercise of
patience and other vertues, and to make more wise thereby the managers thereof :
by which occasion not only the ignorant and simple minded are much discouraged,

but the malitious and looser sort (being accompanied with the licentious vaine of
stage Poets have whet their tongues with scornful! taunts against the action
it selfe, in so much as there is no common speech nor publike name of any thing
this day (except it be the name of God) which is more vildly depraued, traduced
and derided by such unhallowed lips, then the name of Virginea."
I., R. The New Life of Virginea : declaring the former svccesse
and present estate of that plantation, being the second part of Noua
Britannia. Published by the authoritie of his Maiesties Counsell of

Dedicated by R. I. to " Sir Thomas Smith of London, Gouernour of the Moscouia
and East Indie Companies," &c.
After giving an account of the several disasters which had befallen the colony
and the loss sustained by the adventurers, the author continues : " You shall know
that our Colonie consisteth now of seven hundred men at least, of sundrie arts and
professions, some more or lesse, they stand in health and few sicke, at the ships
comming thence, hauing left the fort at Cape Henry fortified and kept by Captaine
Dauies, and the keeping of James towiie to that noble and well deserving Gentle
man Master George Percie. The Colonie is remoued vp the riuer foursescore miles
further beyond James towne to a place of higher ground, strong and defencible by
nature, a good aire, wholesome and cleere (vnlike the marish seate at James towne)
with fresh and plentie of water springs, much faire and open grounds freed from
woods, and wood enough at hand."

Of this work at least two editions in 4to and one in Svo were printed in 1537.
See Herbert, p. 428.
This was commonly known as " The Bishop's book." In the preface addressed
to the king, which is signed by the bishops and other principal clergy, we read :
" Your hyghnesse commaunded us nowe of late, to assemble our selfes togyther,
and vppon the diligent serche and pervsynge of holye scripture, to sette forthe a
playne and syncere doctrine, concernynge the hole summe of all those thynges,
whyche appertayne vnto the profession of a Chrysten man."
It might be supposed that the " Pia et Catholica Christiani Hominis Institutio,"
printed by Berthelet in 1544, was a Latin version of this book; but it is in fact
a translation of the " Necessary Doctrine and Erudition for any christen man,"
printed by Berthelet in 1543.

Unknown to bibliographers. Some of the points of inquiry are very curious ;
several refer to the question, then much agitated, of married priests ; and one is
upon the subject of forbidden literature : — " Item whether y= knowe or haue hearde
of anye Prynters or Bookesellers wythin youre Parishe that hathe solde, or nowe
dothe sell or keepe anye the sayde heretical!, nawghtye, or seditious booke or
bookes, letters or wrytynges, and whyther ye haue any suspectes thereof." Among
these naughty books are " especially english testamentes or Bibles falsely translated,
secretlye or otherwise."

IRELAND. 757
The eleventh article is directed against the favourers of naughty persons, who
read the English service used in the time of King Edward the Sixth, or the book
of Communion, or any book prohibited or forbidden. The thirty-second article
inquires as to the existence within each parish of a Rood and a Rood-loft, having
the images of Mary and John; and the next asks whether the authorities have a
register of births, deaths, and marriages properly kept up.

The title-pages to the " Poetical Exercises " and to the " Lepanto " are within
woodcut borders. In the address to the reader, the King says of the contents of
the volume : " Rough and unpolished as they are, I offer them unto thee : which
being well accepted, will move me to haste the presenting unto thee of my Apocalyps,
and also such nomber of the Psalmes as I have perfited, and encourage me to the
ending of the rest." It was mentioned by Bishop Williams in his funeral sermon
on King James, that " This work was .-itaid at the one & thirty Psalm." A complete
metrical version of the Psalms, purporting to be by King James, was printed at
Oxford, in Svo, 1631. Of the Apocalypse nothing more is known. See Holland's
" Psalmists of Great Britain," vol. i., p. 253.

This is the edition described by Hain, No. 225 1. Il consists of 370 leaves with
sixty-seven lines to the page. It is from the press of the printer who used the pecu

By Hain and other bibliographers, books containing this peculiar letter were attri

any certainty be said who was the printer of them.

A — F in fours. On E iii is a nevir title, " What Heaven is, vindicated From
the Vulgar mistakes, and gross conceivings of many," &c., &c. There are eight
plates, which represent: — i. Understanding. 2. Memory. 3. The sense of Smell.
4. Hearing. 5. Seeing. 6. Will. 7. Feeling. 8. Fancy.
The work appears to be a paraphrase in prose of Sir John Davies' poem " Nosce
Teipsum." In the British Museum is a book, dated 1653, with the same title, except
for some slight verbal diiiferences, and with precisely the same imprint. It is, how
ever, an entirely diff'erent work, being in fact a reprint of the poem " Nosce Teip
sum," with little variation from the original text, except that there are many verses
omitted. This prose version is evidently a later publication, but the last figure of
the date being rubbed out in this copy, it is impossible to fix it exactly, as no other
can be found. It is clearly later than 1653, as the plates are much more worn
than in the book mentioned above, and one, in which " Tasting " is represented by
a female gallant smoking a pipe, is omitted. The reprint of the poem under this
title is mentioned by Lowndes both under " Work" and under " Davies," but no
bibliographer seems to have any knowledge of this prose rendering.

Plates.
The first seven leaves, including the title, have no signatures. Then follow E — L
in twos, but the signatures are placed on the verso of the leaf, instead of being on
the recto as usual. On the recto of the leaf following the title is a large copperplate
engraving of Albert Durer, with the inscription beneath it, "A Booke of the Art of
Drawing according to y order of Albert Durer, Jean Cozijn and other excellent
Picture-makers, describing y true proportions of Men, women & Children. Johes
Rotenhamer pinxit. Francisco De Laram sculpsit. Are to bee sould by Thomas
Geele . . . ." Another of the prints bears on it, " Compton Holland excudit." From
the worn state of the plates it is evident that Jenner had bought the plates of
another book, or other books, and made up this one with them. All the plates are
printed on the letterpress.

L'Exil et Passe-port des Jdsuites. Four leaves of satirical verse. [1595.]
The first four pieces were the most important and celebrated documents in the
suit brought in 1564 by the Jesuits against the Sorbonne, to obtain recognition as
a collegiate body by the University, and in which, in spite of apparent failures,
they managed to gain their point, and establish their lectures and schools of in
struction under royal authority. Pasquier (whose pleading gives a curious history
and analysis of the order), Du Mesnil, and Charles Du Moulin opposed the new
sect (as they were considered) with great ability and bitterness; but the Jesuits
succeeded in flinging aspersions of Huguenotry on the two former, and as for Du
Moulin, he was treated as a virtual heretic until his death. The Society had grown
so important that when Henry IV. entered Paris in triumph in 1594, it was con
sidered advisable by the University to renew the contest by publishing the former
pleadings of Pasquier (the old man sanctioning and approving of it), and Du Mesnil,
along with the Jesuit advocate's reply to Pasquier and Du Moulin's legal opinion.
To these they added new matter, as will be seen by the above list, some of which
is very curious and interesting. The preface to Estienne Pasquier's Plaidoyer,
by the publisher, states that the Sorbonne advocate had been a true prophet
of all the ills brought on by the Society. The only result was that the Jesuits
were banished for a few years. They returned in 1604, and became stronger than
ever.

First edition in English. It was licensed, without the exact date being given,
sometime in 1562, in the following curious terms : " Recevyd of master Wolfe for
his lycense for pryntinge of a polige in englesshe . . . xij''." See Arber's " Tran
script," vol. i., p. 73 b. There is no prefatory matter and no indication of the trans
lator. In 1564 Wolfe again printed the book in English, but this time there is a
prefatory address to Anne, Lady Bacon, as the translator, by Archbishop Parker.
Though the text differs materially as to the language throughout the two editions,
there are so many phrases exactly the same that it appears most probable that the
author of the 1564 translation was also the author of that of 1562. The language
of the edition of 1564 is less forcible, but what would probably have been considered
more polished. That the printer did not obtain another license for the book, and
that the same printer was employed for both editions, point also to the conclusion
that they were the work of the same person.

Eight leaves, the last bears only a printer's device, which represents Ceres sup

undescribed. It is subscribed at the end " Datse Eborse, die xx. Julij. An. D.

This edition, a reprint of that of 1591, is included in Nichols's " Six Old Plays,"

This volume of woodcuts appears to be undescribed by all bibliographers, except
Nagler, "Monogrammisten Lex.," v. 3, No. 1251. It consists altogether of thirty-
nine leaves, or, if the large blocks be not pasted together, of forty-three leaves, and
is thus composed : i. Title as above, within woodcut border. 2. " Bericht diser
Chronicken," one leaf, within a similar border. 3. A folding woodcut portrait.
4. A folding woodcut portrait with hat on. 5. Arms of Saxony within a border.
6. Fifteen leaves, each containing a woodcut within a border, and four lines of verse
beneath each. 7. A large folding woodcut of the distribution of alms (two sheets
pasted together). 8. Three leaves, each with woodcut within a border, and four
lines beneath. 9. Large folding woodcut of the battle of " Mulberck," four sheets
pasted together. 10. Full length portrait in armour, folded at the bottom. 11.
Thirteen leaves, each with a woodcut within a border, four lines of verse beneath
each, the last, representing the Day of Judgment, being a copy from the concluding
cut of Diirer's "little passion."
Some of the woodcuts bear the monogram IM, and on the large cut of the
distribution of alms is the date 1561. This cut, according to Nagler, represents a
scene in the life of St. Elizabeth. The work is described by Nagler from a copy
which appeared many years since in R. Weigel's " Kunstcatalog." The monogram,
PM, is that of an unknown master.

This copy is believed to be unique on large paper. It contains the three plays
edited by the author towards a second volume. Mr. Brinsley Nicholson, in his
exhaustive account of the early folio editions of Jonson's works, in " Notes and
Queries," June i8th, 1870, says: "The noncontinuance of the attempt at a second
collected volume beyond the third play, ' The Staple of News,' was probably due to
the damning by the town of ' The New Inn ' in that same year."
There is in the library a copy ofthe edition of 1616, on small paper, with a slight
variation in the imprint, '¦^London Printed by William Stansby." It has also a
duplicate title to " Every Man out of his Humour" printed within a woodcut border.
In this copy also are included, besides the three plays before mentioned, " The
Magnetick Lady," " A Tale of a Tub," " The Sad Shepherd," " Horace His Art
of Poetrie," " The English Grammar," " Timber," " Underwoods," " Mortimer His
FaU," " Christmas his Masque," "A Masque" at Lord Haye's, "A Masque at the
Metamorphosd Gypsies," with dates of 1640, &c. The bibliography and collation
of the early folio editions is most intricate and difficult ; but in the article mentioned
above Mr. Brinsley Nicholson has said all that can be said on the subject.

With commendatory verses by George Chapman, Hugh Holland, John Marston,
Th. R.[avenscroft ?], and others. With marginal notes by the author. The verses by
Chapman occupy six pages, and are, as Chapman calls them, a commentary on the
drama. This is the only copy known on large paper. It has the following inscription on
the flyleaf, in the author's handwriting : " To my perfect Freind, Mr. Francis Crane
I erect this pillar of Freindship. And leaue it as the eternall Witnesse of my Loue.
Ben: Jonson.'' Beneath which is a MS. note in a contemporary hand: "HicestBen:
Johnson : ille cui in componendis fabulis parem nee vidit Antiquitas, nee pos-
teritas visura est. F. M." In the original vellum binding. It bears the book-plate
of Robert Cony, M.D., and has successively belonged to Whalley, Jonson's early
editor, the Rev. John Field, and Mr. George Daniel.
This drama, eventually printed by George Eld for Thomas Thorpe, was origi
nally registered by Edward Blount, on the 2nd November, 1604; and on the 6th
August, in the following year, Blount assigned the copyright to Thorpe. See
Arber's "Transcript," iii., 115, 127.

says : " Tis now about sixe moneths since the most learned and judicious Poet,
B. lohnson, became a subject for these Elegies." and attributes the delay which had
occurred in the appearance of the volume to the consideration requisite in so great
an argument. The principal writers are Lord Falkland, Sir John Beaumont the younger. Sir
Thomas Hawkins, Henry King, W. Abington, Edmund Waller, James Howell,
J. Cl.[eveland ?], W. Cartwright, Owen Feltham, Shackerley Marmion, and John

This appears to have been Jordan's earliest publication. In the present copy,
A 2, containing the dedication to John Ford of Gray's Inn, is deficient. The volume
is reviewed by Collier, " Bibl. Cat.," i., 414-16.
The present copy derives a special interest from a series of poems in MS. bound
up at the end, many with the musical notes, and the last subscribed " T. J.," all of
which are supposed to be in Jordan's own handwriting. Some of these will be
found printed in Jordan's " City-Pageants.''

This copy agrees with the collation given by Brunet, and with the copy in the
British Museum, but the vocabulary should be followed by a single leaf bearing
the printer's device.
In Ticknor's " History of Spanish Literature," vol. i., p. 69, this edition of " El
Conde Lucanor" is described as " one ofthe rarest books in the world."
" It is a collection of forty-nine tales, anecdotes, and apologues, clearly in the
Oriental manner ; the first hint for which was probably taken from the ' Disciplina
Clericalis ' of Petrus Alphonsus, a collection of Latin stories made in Spain about
two centuries earlier. The occasion on which the tales of Don John are supposed
to be related is, like the fictions themselves, invented with Eastern simplicity, and
reminds us constantly of the ' Thousand and One Nights ' and their miiltitudinous
imitations." — Ticknor's Hist, of Spanish Literature, vol. i., p. 64.

These volumes are fine specimens of French ornamental binding of the sixteenth
century. The sides are elaborately tooled, and the patterns picked out with different
colours. The set of books displays an unusual style, each volume being tooled to a
different pattern, and though the obverse and reverse covers of each volume are alike
in design, the colouring of the two sides is varied. The binding appears, from the
fleur-de-lis and dolphin surmounted by a coronet, which are worked into the design,
to have been executed for a Dauphin of France ; but, from an inscription on fhe
title of the first volume, the book appears to have already passed into other hands
in the sixteenth century. The inscription runs: "Hoc utriusqj Juris corpus, per-
petuae memoris, et amicitiae ergo, Nobili et ornatissimo viro. D. Udalrico Piirzero,
dono dedit Joannes Georgius k Fraysing et Aychach."
When this book was first placed in the library, the second and sixth parts of the
Digests were missing ; the sixth (in the same binding as the others) was acciden
tally purchased from Italy some years afterwards, and it is hopfed that the second
may yet be recovered.

This is the " Conspiracy," republished with the author's sanction, and is in fact the
first genuine impression of the play. Prefixed is a curious preface by the pubhsher,
mentioning the favourable estimate formed by the public of the piece, and especially
by Ben Jonson, who was then (1638) living, the only fault imputed to the dramatist
being that he had made a youth of seventeen speak like a man of thirty.
The title-page was printed twice. Some copies have this imprint : " London,

towards a solution of the question connected with the different editions of the book.
There were, in all probabiUty, at least two in 1694, differing in the size and contents.
The one here noticed is an 8vo of pp. 96 ; that in the " Bibliotheca Anglo-Poetica,"
No. 409, had another imprint, and contained pp. 144, but bore the same date.
KING, Daniel. The Vale-RoyaU of England, or. The County
Palatine of Chester illustrated. Wherein is contained a Geographical
and Historical Description of that Famous County, with all its Hun
dreds and Seats of the Nobility, Gentry, and Freeholders ; its Rivers,
Towns, Castles, Buildings, Ancient and Modern. Adorned with Maps
and Prospects, and the Coats of Arms belonging to every individual
Family of the whole County. Performed by William Smith, and

tlie New-Exchange. 1657. Sm. Svo. G. M.
A, 4 leaves, the first blank ; B — L 4 in eights.
At the end of the volume is a Ust of errata, one item of which points out that the
poem caUed " The Pink" is not King's. It appears from the address of the pub
lishers to the author, that the book was printed without his knowledge from MSS
supplied to them by some of his friends.
 Poems, Elegies, Paradoxes, And Sonets. London, Printed
for Henry Herringman, and are to be sold at the Anchor in the lower-
walk in the New Exchange. 1664. Sm. Svo.
A — C 4 in eights.
Notwithstanding the promise of the title this contains only four elegies, in
three of which, viz., on the Earl of Essex, on Sir Charles Lucas, and on Charles I.,
the author expresses such decided opinions as a Royalist that it was probably
thought advisable not to print them when the other poems appeared in 1657. It is
very likely that in some copies the tide of 1657 has been replaced by that of 1664
and these elegies added at the end, but the first leaf would then be A 2. The two
pieces are here bound together, that of 1664 being placed first. From Mr. Utter
son's collection.
KING, Humphrey. An Half-penny-worth of Wit, in a Penny
worth of Paper. Or, The Hermites Tale. The third Impression.

8o2 KING— KIP-
London Printedfor Thomas Thorp, by the Assignement of Edw: Blount.
1613. 4to.
A — F in fours. In verse.
The author of this piece was the firiend of Thomas Nash, who, in his " Lenten
Stuffe," 1599, speaks of the tract as then about to appear; but this edition of 1613
is the earliest and only impression now known. The poem is a dialogue between a
hermit, and a youth who visits his cell, and contains many allusions of interest, such
as to Robin Hood, Tarlton, &c. Nash, in his " Lenten Stuffe," 1 599, styles the author
"King of the tobacconists," as if he had been a great smoker.
Not the least curious part of the book is the oddly worded dedication to Lady
Sussex. From the collections of Caldecott and Mr. George DanieL The only
other known is that which was successively in the Farmer, Roxburghe, Heber, and
Corser collections, and is now in the British Museum.
KING, JOSIAH. The Examination and Tryal of Old Father Christ

Author 1668. Folio.
A — P in twos.
The author, in an address " To aU Lovers of Musick," observes : " I intended
many more Songs, which might have made this Book farr larger ; But considering
that they were not so fit company for the Great Cowley, I have given them leave to
find out more suitable Acquaintance."

The Kirchen Ordnung contains A— G and K in sixes, H, I, L, four leaves each,
the last blank. The Catechismus, a — m in sixes, n, 8 leaves.
"This 'Ordnung,' according to Goode ('Doctrine of Baptism.' Lond. 1849), is
founded upon that of Luther, in so far at least as regards baptism. It is also upon this
Form and that of Hermann, Archbishop of Cologne (' Simplex et Pia Deliberatio'),
that the ofiice of the Book of Common Prayer is based. Dr. Pusey, however (' Tract
on Baptism'), although he cites Hermann's work, does not notice this; and it is
presumed therefore that he was not then acquainted with it. It is described in the
' Bibliotheca Agendorum ' of Konig, HaUe, 1726, of which it forms the first article;
the author there states that he knew of but one copy, and that had not the Catechism.
Seckendorf, lib. iii., p. 71, also describes it, but from the reprint of 1591." — Note by
Mr. C. J. Stewart.

A — Q in eights, the last leaf blank.
A curious little volume of which no notice appears in bibliographical works.
KORAN. The Koran, in Arabic, complete.
Written in very minute characters, on a roll of thin bombycine paper, more than
twelve feet long, and a little over three inches in width. The text, which is less
than two inches in width, is so disposed, by ingenious grouping, as to form a series
of decorations, floral figures, and monumental inscriptions, relieved with gold lines
and the occasional use of red ink.
There is no date given, nor any inscription, but from the handwriting, the MS.
seems to have been executed in the Turkish dominions, and does not appear to be
more than a century old, if so much.
The inscription, formed by groups of text as above mentioned, is extracted from
the Koran itself, and is the 256th verse of the Second Sura. It runs thus, in
translation : —
" God — there is no God except Him, the Living, the Eternal ; no Slumber, no
Sleep seizeth Him ; His, whatever is in the Heavens, and whatever is on the earth.
Who is he that prayeth to Him unless by His permission ? He knoweth what is at
hand and what shall follow [what is between their hands and what shall succeed
them], and they shall not understand aught of His knowledge but what He alloweth.
His throne embraceth the heavens and the earth and the burden thereof doth not
trouble Him. For He is the Sublime, the Magnificent !"

This is believed to be an unique copy of the earliest English sheet almanac

the English translation of Erasmus's Paraphrase on the New Testament. It is
to be remarked that the word " Saint " is omitted in the holidays marked in the

First edition. See "Goerres Volkbucher," p. 183, for a high panegyric of this
early German comic romance, which is there said to be full of the best thoughts
that wit and irony could produce. In the geographical supplement to Brunet it is
quoted as the earliest book printed at Laleburg on the Neckar. By Dr. Graesse,
" Trdsor de livres rares," &c., vi., p. 301, a book with a similar title is placed under
the head of " Schildbiirger, Die. Wunderseltzame, Abendtheurliche, &c. Misnopo-
tamia. 1598," which he describes as " Premiere €&.. de ce livre populaire alle-
mand, dans lequel les coutiimes bizarres et les bStises de quelques villes allemandes
sont ridiculisdes." But as he quotes an edition of 1597 in a note, it is difficult to see
how he could have supposed the first to be printed in 1598.

This edition was known to Brunet only through the sale of this copy, which was
formerly in Colonel Stanley's collection, and he appears almost to doubt if it really
existed. He says : " Une Edition de Paris, en 3 vol. en fol. goth., annonc^e sous la
date de 1513 a €i€ payde 34 Uv. 13 sh. k la vente Stanley. Nous ne I'avons pas
vue." It is probable that the impression of 1520 was an exact reproduction of this,
which agrees precisely with the coUation which Brunet gives of that edition.

A beautiful copy in the original veUum cover, with strings. From the library

the following English version:

printed in quick succession.

This confirms what might have been supposed from the style of the book, that
it was rather the work of a Wickliffite than of one of the Reformers of the sixteenth
century, though it was no doubt the revival of Anti-papal doctrines which caused it
to be printed at this time. As Redman did not make use of Pynson's device tiU after
1530, the date ofthe book must be later than that.

the Dyce coUection at South Kensington, and completed from another. Not more
than four perfect copies are known. The present was Sir Francis Freeling's, and
afterwards Halliwell's.
In the metrical dedication to Lady Pembroke the author speaks of " The Psalms
written newly by the Countesse Dowager of Pembroke." The last page has an
address in prose " To the doubtful Reader," in which it is explained that the title,
" Salve Deus Rex Judsorum," was delivered to the writer in a dream. The '' divers
other works not unfit to be read," consist of a poetical description of Cookham,
where Mrs. Lanyer received her first inspirations and resided for some time.

empuiiaba el litigo de la sdtira, empleando ademds el lenguaje picaresco y festivo
en los asuntos amorosos. El Monstro imaginado es una especie de novela en
equivocos, escrita en prosa ; el autor la intitula crdnica y pretende haberla traducido
de la lengua siria." — Salvd, i., p. 128.

This book appears to be altogether undescribed by bibliographers. It contains
metrical paraphrases of sixty-eight of David's Psalms, followed by the Ten Com
mandments, and the Song of Simeon, also in verse. It is probable that the author
concealed under the name of Juan le Quesne is in reality Juan Enzina, who was
bumed at Brussels in 1546, and some of whose books were published under the
hellenized name of Dryander. In any case, it is curious as showing that Spanish
Protestants were still sufficiently numerous to make it worth while to print books
for them at the beginning ofthe 17th century.

short appendix (M — M 4). Leycester's dedication " To the Honour and Glory of
the Infinite, Immense, and Incomprehensible Majesty of Jehovah," is in verse, and
is subscribed, " By Jo. Ley. A small crumme of mortality." There is no mention
of Ricraft as the author, but as Leycester does not charge the latter with appro
priation of his labours, it is to be inferred that Leycester was the plagiarist.

LIBER Diurnus Romanorum Pontificum ex Antiquissimo Codice
MS. nunc primum in lucem editus. Studio Lucae Holstenii. Roma,
typis Josephi Vatinacci, 1658. Sm. Svo. R. M.
Pp. 231.
The most ancient document of the kind in existence. This first edition was
carefully suppressed, as is shown in the foUowing extracts from writers of authority.
Why it was so dealt with does not appear ; and it is worthy of note that Gamerius,
in the preface to his edition, completely ignores it, relying, perhaps, on its utter
destruction. When suppressed the text only had been printed. To this copy is
prefixed a title which, both in type and paper, is evidently of a much later date.
" Post mortem itaque Holstenii, quum recuperata essent folia ilia, quum certum
jam esset, nihil ex ilia editione extra vagari vel alibi e stare quam Romae, libri
diurni editio omnino suppressa est prudenti consilio, ut ait Fr. Marchesius, juxta
cujus verba explicandus est vir clarissimus Joannes Mabillonius, scribens in itinere
suo Italico, diurni impressionem prohibitam fuisse. Impressio siquidem facta fuit et
perfecta; sed non emissa, quia suppressa." — 5". Baluzii Notce in P. de Marca de

" lUud potius observandum, quod ab homine docto accepimus : quem cum de

hominem studiosum & eruditum, qui Ughelli preceptor fuerat, habuisse antiquum
ipsius libri exemplar, quod AUatius commodate cum accepisset, una nocte ex-
scripserit, & postea publicare voluisset : at impressionem prohibitam fuisse. Sed
tamen post multam inquisitionem votis potiti sumus, reperto veteri codice, ex quo

" Fuerat is liber primum ab Holstenio Romanis Josephi Vannacii praelis com-
missus a MDCLVIII. in 8. sed ea editio plane suppressa fuit, ut nonnisi in se

Romani, olim inveniretur. Idem opus deinde Joh. Gamerius, vir eruditissimus cum
luculentis adnotationibus, ac dissertationibus Parisiis a. MDCLXXX. in 4. divul-
gavit." — Zaccarice Bibliotheca Ritualis, tom. i., p. 177, edit. 1776. In the appendix
Zaccaria devotes one whole dissertation to an examination of Holstenius's edition,
and a comparative coUation is given of it with that by Gamerius.

This is the same work as the four editions described above, but, as indicated in
the title, it is preceded by a preface by Martin Luther against professed beggars.
The " Rotwelsch " vocabulary, which he reprints at the end of this edition, is also
found in the earlier ones. It appears by no means improbable that this book gave
Harman the idea of his " Caveat for common Cursetors."

This edition was unknown to Panzer, who, speaking of the edition dated 1497,
says : " Diese Ausgabe von Johann Lichtenbergers bekannten Weissagungen besitze
ich selbst. Vermuthlich ist es eben diejenige, welche in der Neuen Bibliothek der
schonen Wissenschaft B. 25. .,9. 26. unter dem Jahre 1488 angefiihrt wird."
It is probable that this is the edition referred to, though it has not the date ot
1488 as the year of printing. No earlier one appears to be described by biblio
graphers. The volume ends on the verso of H iii with a large cut of a begging friar, who
is receiving money from two women. Above it are the following lines : —
" Hie sal sien eyn lolhart vnd sal sprechen dyesze wort.

Brunet gives only thirty-two leaves to this volume, but this copy has thirty-six,
as described by Hain, and as the signatures are A — F, 6 leaves each, the copy col
lated by Brunet must have been incomplete. At the end occurs : " Emendatum

The engravings are the same as in the German edition without date or place.

described above, but the last one, which represents the Lollard and two women, is
omitted. Hain describes two other editions of this Latin version, which appear to be of
an earlier date than the present.

Narcissus LuttreU's copy, having cost him sixpence ; afterwards Mr. Heber's
and Mr. Corser's. " It has been supposed that it was not printed for sale, but from
the prefatory matter it is evident this was not the case. The sonnets are obviously
in imitation of Daniel ; to these succeed miscellanies, and finally a poem in the style
of the ' Mirror for Magistrates.' Some extracts from it are given in ' Restituta '
iv., 15." — Bibl. Heber., part viii., No. 1294.
The volume is ascribed to GUes Fletcher the elder by Mr. Joseph Hunter, in
his "New Illustrations of Shakespeare," 1845, ii., "]"], and has been pubhshed as
the work of that author by Mr. Grosart.
The title is enclosed in a curious woodcut border. There is a separate title to
the poem on Richard III., on sig. L. The epistle to Lady MoUineux, wife to Sir
Richard MoUineux, Knight, is dated "from my chamber, Sept. 4, 1593," and the
Preface to the Reader is dated four days later. The author attributes the pro
duction of his work to the kindness which he had received at the hands of Sir
Richard and Lady MoUineux, and one or two other friends of his and theirs.
Not more than three copies appear to be known — one in the Malone col
lection ; a second, formerly Farmer's, Steevens's, and Caldecott's ; the present,
from the libraries of Heber and Corser.

is signed by the printer, who offers the book as a slight return for numerous favours
received, and points out the propriety of the inscription of a volume of travels by

are twenty-two, besides one which is repeated.
Jocher, in his " AUgemeines Gelehrten Lexion," says that the author of this
chronicle lived in the twelfth century, but Panzer, as will be seen in the following
extract, assigns to him a much earlier date :
"Wer der Verfaszer, der sich, wie schon gedacht worden, Thoman Lirer gesessen
zu Rankweil nennet, und von sich sagt, er sey seines gnadigen Herren von Werden-
berg knecht gewesen und mit ihm auszgefaren gen Portigal etc. gewesen sey, ist nicht
bekannt. Wegelin vermuthet, der Herr von Werdenberg sey der Albertus gewesen,
der um das Jahr 920 lebte, und des konigs von Portugal Tochter Elisa entfiihrte.
Was die Glaubwiirdigkeit dieses alten Geschichtschreibers betrift, so ist er freylich
von vielen fiir einen Idioten und Fabelschmid erklaret worden. Doch haben ihn
einige wieder in Schutz genommen, besonders Heider, welcher in den Actis Lin-
daviens. S. 611. u. f. ausfiihrlich zu erweisen sucht, dasz in dieser Lirerischen
Chronik manche Dinge gefunden wiirden, welche mit andern glaubwiirdigen
Geschichtschreibern iibereinstimmen. Wegelin urtheilt, der Werth und Verlust
dieser Chronik ware wohl von keiner sonderlichen Erheblichkeit, doch verdiene sie
deswegen wieder herfiirgesucht zu werden, weil doch viele Spuren von dem alten
Adel, Vesten, Stadt en, Klostern u. d. darinn angetroffen wiirden." — Panzer, i., 161.

The imprint is only ''Printed by John Haviland, at the Authors charge;' and

Of this original edition, which varies much from the later ones, and contains
far less matter, very few copies are known. There are two in the British Museum,
one imperfect, and others in the Bodleian and at BritweU.

This Liturgy was first published in February, 1551, for the use of the Strangers'
Church in London, " and is supposed to have furnished hints to the revisers of the
Book of Common Prayer in some additions which were made in 1552 to the ancient
services." See Procter's " History of the Common Prayer." On the accession of
Queen Mary the refugees fled from England, and PuUain, or PoUanus, the compiler
of this form of service, and the head of the church, went to Francfort, and the book
was again printed as above, with the addition of the Confession of Failh. From
this church sprang the troubles at Francfort about the Common Prayer. — MS. note

This Latin version is evidently anterior to the French translation printed the
same year, as may be seen by the very much better state of the plates which are
worked on the letterpress. For full collation, see MuUer, pp. 127 and 106.

This edition is exactly the same as that of 1 598, except that the title is reprinted,
and bears a copper-plate of an elephant procession instead of a map. The letter
press is identical, but the engravings have clearly been printed at a later date.

M. Mulier, in his valuable " Memoire bibliographique,'' p. 128, states that WiUiara
Lodewijcksz is undoubtedly the author of the voyage which forms the earlier part
of this volume, though he is quite unable to explain the letters G. i\l. A., which pre
cede his initials. This gives us a more satisfactory heading under which to place
the different editions of the book than bibliographers have hitherto been able to avail
themselves of in an alphabetical catalogue. In Brunet the Latin version stands under
the very unsatisfactory heading of " Prima pars," and in the Grenville catalogue it is
to be found under the still more doubtful heading of "De Bry," seeing that all De
Bry had to do with it was that he reprinted it in his collection of voyages.

known, and ofthe second the only other copy yet discovered is that in the Malone
collection at Oxford.
Lodge's "Rosalynd" is famiUar to Shakespearian students as the foundation-
story of Shakespeare's "As you Like it." Some of the poems, with which the book
is copiously interspersed, were reprinted in "England's Helicon," 1600.

house at Low-Laiton, this 5. of Nouember. 1596."
The work is a satire in prose on the vices of the time, and is often quoted by
modern writers for the iUustrations with which it abounds. The present was Dr.
Farmer's copy, and afterwards in the collection of G. Chalmers.
" At p. 57 Lodge gives a very interesting Account of his Literary Contemporaries,
Lilly is famous for facility in Discourses, Spenser is best read in EngUsh Poetry ;
Daniel is choice in word and invention. Drayton is diligent and formal ; T. Nash
is the true English Aretine. It will be observed no mention is here made of
Shakespeare. This appears highly to have incensed him, and he retaliated by
frequent sarcasms on Lodge in several of his Plays. In the Merry Wives of
Windsor Falstaff says, in the very language of the Devil Luxury, " Let the Sky
rain potatoes" " and snow eringoes" &c. also in Midsummer Night's Dream, in
Troilus and Cressida, &c. See Chalmers's Supplemental Apology, passim. " In
short," says Mr. Chalmers, " Lodge seems never to have been out of his head
after this provocation." Mr. Chalmers appears to have overlooked a, circumstance,
which probably aggravated the offence in Shakespeare's eyes : Ben Jonson is named
in another part of the Work as the English Horace, that gives number, weight, and
measure to every word." — N'ote in G. Chalmers' Catalogue.

sixty additional sonnets to which Mr. Collier refers. They were annexed, doubtless,
as an afterthought. Of the previous issue of the " Sonets of Christian Passions,"

862 LOMBARD US— LONDON.
The title-page is engraved, and contains portraits of the author and the trans
lator. Haydocke's prefatory address "To the ingenvovs reader" contains many
curious and interesting notices respecting painters and painting. Speaking of the
restoration of old pictures in his own day, he says: "For my selfe have seene
divers goodlie olde workes finely marred, with fresh and beawtifuU colours, and
vernishes : a singular argument (to say nothing of the Owners) of the bolde and
confident ignorance of the workemen." Speaking of English painters in his time,
he says : " And for their farther incouragement, could wish I had the skilfuU pen of
George Vasarie, to eternize their well-deserving names to all succeeding ages 
Then would M. Nicholas Hilliards hand, so much admired amongst strangers, striue
for a comparison with the milde spirit of the late worldes-wonder Raphaell Vrbine ;
for (to speake a truth) his perfectio in ingenuous Illuminating or Limning, the perfec
tion of Painting, is (if I can iudge) so extraordinarie, that when I deuised with myselfe
the best argument to set it forth, I found none better then to perswade him to doe
it him selfe, to the viewe of all men by his pen ; as hee had before vnto very many,
by his lerned pencell : which in the ende hee assented vnto ; and by mee promiseth
you a treatise of his owne Practise that way, with all convenient speede. Whose
true and liuely Image you may otherwise behold, more then reflected vppon the
mirrours or glasses, of his two schollars M : Isaac Oliver for Liraming, and Rowland
Lockey for Oyle and Lim."
Nicholas Hilliards' treatise here spoken of appears never to have been printed,
and excepting a bare mention by Walpole, who indeed changes his name from
Rowland to Nicholas, we have no mention anywhere of Lockey as a painter.

LONDON. Statuta Ciuitatis Londoniarum. 4to. BL. M.
MS. of the fifteenth century. The above title is followed by a register which
extends to the verso of the first leaf. The second leaf begins with the following
titie :—
" Statuta felic® recordacionis domini Rogeri Nigri Epi Londoniesis de consensu
dni Petri [Blesensis] Archidiaconi London edita et directa uniusis Rectoribus
vicar'^ CapeUanis parochialibj in Archiediaconatu {sic) londoii constitutis directa.
Mo. CC . pmo."
Then foUows the text, beginning with a large illuminated letter R, within which
is a fine miniature representing the Bishop, habited in a cope, between two monks.
Down the side of the page is a rich floriated border. The statutes, thirty-four in
number, are of considerable interest in connection with the ecclesiastical history of
the diocese. They are foUowed by an instrument of WiUiam [Courtenay], Arch
bishop of Canterbury, addressed to Thomas Baketon, LL.D., Archdeacon of London
and Dean of the Arches, dated at " Lamhithe," 11 kal. Dec. 1387, concerning
stipendiary priests. The letter with which this instrument commences includes a
miniature of the Archbishop and two monks ; and the Constitution to which it
refers begins with an illuminated letter, in which the Archbishop is represented
talking with two monks, enriched, like the other illuminations, with beautiful mar
ginal foliage. Constitutions of Archbishops Wynchelsee and Peckham, relating to
the furniture and ornaments of churches, follow, together with a note on the threefold

character of excommunication, and a list of feasts to be observed, evidently in the
diocese of London. At the end is the name of the scribe, with the date of the MS.

At the end of the tract occurs a report by two sui-veyors of the exact loss by the

Mr. Halliwell (" Dictionary of Old Plays," i860, p. 144) observes: "This piece
is rather an interlude than a play, but it is curious, the characters being London
criers." From a passage in the prologue we may perhaps infer that the production
originally appeared during a visitation of the plague in London, and that it was first
presented on some suburban or provincial stage. The metropolis was ravaged by
pestilence in 1636, which is a not unlikely date for the composition and original
representation of the piece.

rare," vol. iii., col. 232, where it is placed under " History." Panzer also testifies to
the rarity of the volume in his " Annalen der altern deutschen Litteratur," and
knew of it only in time to place it in the supplement to his work. It appears that
Brunet and Graesse knew of the book only through Panzer, as neither of them
give any particulars about it.

LOVE AND TRUTH : in Two modest and peaceable Letters.
Concerning The distempers of the present Times. Written From a quiet

keepers in Coventry. [Quotation from i Peter iv. 15.] Lotidon, Printed
by M. C. for Henry Brome at the Gun in St. Pauls Church-yard.
16S0. 4to.
A, 2 leaves ; B — E in fours.
In this copy the dedication is in two forms, sig. A 2 being in duplicate. In the
first it is subscribed " N. N." and directed "to Mr. Henry Brome in St. Paul's
Churchyard, London," while the other is superscribed merely "The Author to the

LOVE— LOWER. 869
Stationer," and has no signature. The alterations were made at press, as the set
ting-up is the same. The first letter purports to have been written in 1667, the
second in 1679.
The present copy belonged to Mr. Pickering the bookseller, and has on the fly
leaf the foUowing note in his handwriting : " In Emanuel College, Cambridge, is a
volume of Tracts formerly Archbishop Sancroft's. In the MS. Contents by San
croft is written, ' Walton, Is. Two Letters on y* distempers of y' Times.' In the
Advertisement of The Author to the Stationer the printed word Author is erased
and over it vyritten by Isaak Walton ' Publisher,' from which I infer that Walton
was the Editor and not the writer of the two letters. See Nicolas's Life, p. 101.
Dr. Zouch has reprinted the tract as Walton's at the end of his edition of Walton's
Lives, from the copy in Emanuel College, which he believed to be unique. This
copy has the dedicatory Letter in two forms .... " — " W. Pickering, Dec. 25,

From the dedication addressed by Carew Gorges to Lucy, Countess of Bedford,
it appears that this version of Lucan, the earliest complete one in English, was
executed some time before it was committed to the press. Carew Gorges states that
he found the MS. lying idly by in his father's study, and obtained his leave to get it
printed with the assistance of his schoolmaster. He speaks of her ladyship as an
honourable lover and patroness of learning and the Muses, an instinct naturally
engrafted in her " by that worthy blood of the Sydneyes."

letter. R. M.
This is the edition of thirty-two leaves, with twenty-eight lines to the page, and is,
in M. Brunet's opinion, from one of the Lyonnese presses. An earlier edition gives
the following more descriptive title: " Ci commence le liure qui est apelle le liure
du lucidaire dun homme qui enseigna a un ieune disciple des oeuures q Dieu fit,
et comment ce monde fut establi, et a quelle fin viendra, commet il trespassera,
comment Ada fut fait et forme, du deluge, de Noe et de ceux qui en descediret,

Second edition. The first was printed about 1473, and is believed to have been
executed at Brescia. From so long a period elapsing between the first and second
impressions it would appear that the author excited but little interest. Of most of
the classic poets the editions followed in much more rapid succession.

hbellus de jtinere ad terram sanctam, &c. [Sine ulld notd.] Folio.
This is the edition of thirty-four leaves, printed with long lines, except the first
leaf, which contains the Register. Brunet describes it as having forty- two lines to a
full page ; but it has really only forty-one lines. It is possible that there are two
editions with long lines, one having forty-two and the other forty-one. This is all
the more probable as the spelling in the title, as given by Brunet, differs from this
copy. Brunet gives "jhierosolymitano," which is quite different from the copy here
described. It is attributed to the press of H. Eggesteyn of Strasburg.
 [On the recto of the second leaf] De terra sancta et itinere

This edition consists also of thirty-four leaves, the first being " Registrii de
itinere ad terra sancta." It is printed in double columns, and has forty-two lines
to a fuU page, as stated by Hain, though Brunet describes it as having only forty-
one lines. It is no doubt also from the press of H. Eggesteyn of Strasburg.

This beautifuUy printed volume is attributed by Panzer (Annalen der altern deuts
chen Lit., vol. ii., p. 61), to the press of Hans Schonsperger of Augsburg. The type
and typographical omaments are similar to those used in the " Tewrdannckh."
Panzer describes this little volume as consisting of twelve sheets (A — M the last
leaf blank) but this copy has another piece of eight leaves (the last blank) in exactly
the same type, but without date, place, signatures or pagination. The title is " Ain
ChristUche vorbetrachtung vii bekantnusz iii got. So man will beten das heylige
vatervnser. Gezoge ausz den predige D. Martini Luther zu Witteberg. Von

The first London edition appeared in 1 566. When this was entered at Stationers

but if an edition at that date was printed it is no longer known. The entry runs :

This little volume has been attributed to Cleveland. It has after the title-page
a leaf bearing a quotation from Lydgate, like that which occurs before the " Idol
of the Clowns," 1654. Both books were printed anonymously, but are included in
Cleveland's works, 8vo, 1687. It is, however, doubtful whether either the " Majestas
Intemerata" or the " Idol ofthe Clowns" was really by him. On the title-page of
a copy of the " Majestas " is, in fact, viritten in a contemporary hand, " By Francis
White, of Gray's-Inn."

There appears to have been no other separate edition of this book, and it is
consequently of great rarity. It was not reprinted till 1619, and was then added to
the " Refranes o Proverbios " of Hernan Nufiez as a second part. Ticknor speaks
of it as " a volume which, notwithstanding its cumbersome learning, can be read
with pleasure, both for the style in which many parts of it are written, and for the
unusual historical anecdotes with which it abounds." He makes a mistake, how
ever, as to the date of both editions, giving it as 1558 and 1618 instead of 1568
and 1619.

arms of the Earl of Leicester, with fourteen lines of verse in a compartment at the
foot " To the reader." Dedicated " To the right honourable and his singular good
Lord, the Lord Robert Dudlie," in eight seven-line stanzas, signed "Aprili. 1576
Your. L. most humble. Thomas Purfoot." This appears to be a book of greater
rarity than might be supposed. From the date of the dedication it is probable that
the first edition was printed in 1 576. In the Stationers' Registers there is an unfor
tunate hiatus from 1 57 1 to 1577, so that no information can be had from that trust
worthy source. Herbert mentions an edition of 1572, but none of 1576, and it is
most probable that he is mistaken. As he gives no particulars he probably obtained
the title at second-hand and had never seen the book. In the British Museum there
is only an imperfect copy, which is bound up with the author's other work, " A plaine
and easie way to remedie a Horse that is foundered in his feete." This volume was
purchased at the Corser sale, part iv., 465. The metrical dedication to the " Remedies "
is bound up after the title to the " Plaine and easie way," and the text of the " Reme
dies " follows after the four leaves of the " Plaine and easie way." It was this copy
which misled Mr. Hazlitt in his description ofthe "Plaine and easie way," making
that work have fourteen leaves instead of four, and describing the " Remedies " as
another edition of the " Plaine and easie way," whereas they are entirely different
books. In the British Museum are editions of the "Plaine and easie way" of
1576, 1583, and 1594, but except the imperfect copy (apparently of 1583) ofthe

absence would not create a suspicion that the book was incomplete. Such is, how
ever, the case with the copy in the GrenvUle library, and that accounts for the fact
that so short a description is given in the " Biblioth. Grenv." The present copy has
the last leaf in facsimile. It is the first edition of the Italian version of Mandevile's
Travels, and is the earliest edition printed with date and place of impression in any
language. It is remarkable that two French editions also bear the date of 1480,
but neither of these have the place where they were printed, though there is little
doubt they were from a Lyons press.

First edition of this translation. We learn the name of the translator from a
passage which precedes the table of chapters at the end. It begins: " Ich Otto
von Diemeringen Thuherre zu Metze in Lothringen han discs buch verwandelt
ussz Latin vnd welhischer sproch in teutsch." Yet the translation is ascribed to
Michelfeld in the Grenville catalogue. This first edition appears to be unknown to
bibliographers. Panzer, Hain, Brunet, and Graesse all give 1484 as the date of the
earliest impression.
Another German translation by Michelfeld or Michelfelser was printed at Augs
burg in 1481, and reprinted in 1482 ; but the translation of Otto von Diemeringen
appears to have superseded it.

book itself, BB ii — EE ii in fours; A — Ii in fours; -^, 2 leaves; KK — VV in

This first edition of Bp. HUsey's "Manual of Prayers" is unquestionablya book of
the highest rarity. Herbert just gives the title, but had evidently not seen it. There
were two other editions of it printed in the same year, but both of them were clearly
subsequent to this, as Bp. HUsey is described on the titles as " late Bishop of Roches
ter." One of them was an abridged edition for the use of children, and the other was
the EngUsh only, without the Latin version. Lowndes has evidently copied the title
from Herbert, with omissions. The three statements he makes respecting the book
are entirely wrong, ist. The observation he attributes to Herbert belongs to the
edition in English only. 2ndly. The reference to Heber's catalogue does not apply
to this edition. 3rdly. Not this edition, but the one with English only, was reprinted
by Dr. Burton. There is no copy of this edition in the British Museum, but there is
one of the edition reprinted by Dr. Burton. The imprint of that is, " Imprinted in

This is the third known impression of the play. It was originally licensed in
1593, and printed in 1594. A copy of that edition, unknown to all Marlowe's
editors and to all bibliographers, was discovered in 1876 in the Landerbibliothek
at Cassel. The title of this new discovery is : " The troublesome/ raigne and lament

In a copy of this book sold in 1817 the date on the engraved title (the printed

the erroneous supposition that there were two quarto editions. In the reprint of
this poem by Singer some passages are omitted. The engraved title runs : " Cvpid

Ten plates. One leaf is supplied in facsimUe from the copy in the Bodleian
library. With the exception of the entry in the Bodleian catalogue, these two books are
believed to be entirely undescribed, and the author to be altogether unknown.
Though the titles set out very clearly that they are printed in London, there is every
reason to believe that they were really printed in Holland, both from the appearance
of the type and the plates. The former is unquestionably of foreign manufacture,
and the latter are much better engraved than would be the case if they were of
English execution. The costumes of the figures are entirely Dutch, while the style
of the interiors and exteriors of the houses are such as one may see even yet in
Amsterdam. That two books so likely to become popular should have disappeared
from circulation is most curious and difficult to be accounted for. They present a
most graphic and entertaining picture of English middle-class life in the seven
teenth century, and are written with considerable humour and spirit. It might be
supposed that they were translations or adaptations of the French book entitled
" Les quinze joyes de mariage," but such is certainly not the case, nor do they
appear to be drawn from any Dutch original.

an affront. The dedication is signed : " Yours at an houres waming Double V."
There are very curious allusions in this tract. On B 3 recto the author says :
" Now you put me in minde of the matter, there is a booke coming out of a hundred
merrie tales," and on C 3 recto he mentions " Stans puer ad mensam," jEsop's
"Fables," the lost school-book called "Pueriles," "A. B. C", "the Home-booke,"
the games of Irish and Primero, tobacco, besides several rare proverbs. At sig. D i
recto the author says : " let mee stroake my beard thrice like a Germain, before I
speak a wise word." At sig. D 2 verso, there is a singular passage : " Sed heus tu,
die sodes, will they not bee discouraged for the common players ? Would those
Comedies might be aUowed to be plaid that are pend, and then I am sure he
[Martin] would be decyphered, and so perhaps discouraged." A little further on
there is a still more remarkable paragraph : " A stage plaier, though he bee but
a cobler by occupation, yet his chance may bee to play the Kings part." On sig.

This is the first edition of Peter Martyr's three decades concerning the new
found world. The first nine books of the first decade were printed at Seville in
151 1, and the reading of this gave so much pleasure to Pope Leo X. that he re
quested the author to continue his work. See Harrisse, " Bibl. Amer.," No. 88.

The extra leaf above-mentioned contains " The coppie of the Duke of Moscouie
and Emperour of Russia his letters sent to Kinge Edwarde the Syxte." This work
embraces, besides the account of the West Indies, narratives of travels in Russia,
China, Africa, &c., with notices of the products of various regions. In his dedica
tion to Philip and Mary, Eden refers to the splendid solemnities with which their
entry into London was celebrated. See Herbert's Ames, 738.

Title and preliminaries, 10 leaves ; A and B, 4 leaves each ; C — Ooo in
eights. This is in fact a new edition of the preceding work. It is dedicated, by R.
Willes, to " The Lady Brigit, Countesse of Bedforde, my singuler good Lady and
Mystresse," in an epistle of ten pages, in which he recounts and describes Eden's
labours in the edition of 1555 and his own amendment of them in this republication.
The next three leaves are occupied by " R. Willes Preface vnto the Reader," in
which he again describes the contents of the work. At the end of it he says,
" Many of his Englyshe woordes cannot be excused in my opinion for smellyng to
much of the Latine."
From a careful comparison of this edition with that of 1555 it would appear,
however, that Eden himself rearranged the work, and Willes was merely the editor
after his death, which does not seera to have happened till 1576. The long and
interesting preface addressed to the reader which is in the edition of 1555, is here
suppressed, and the principal additions consist of " The Nauigation and voyages of
Lewes Vertomannus  Translated out of Latine into Englyshe, by Richarde
Eden. In the year of our Lord. 1576." "The Voyages of the Spanyards round
about the worlde," translated from " II viaggio fatti dagli Spagnivoli atomo a'l
Mondo," and " An Abridgement of P. Martyr his 5. 6. 7. and 8. Decades." " Lewes
Vertomannus " is, of course, L. de Varthema, and " The Voyages of the Spanyards "
are the relations of Maximilianus Transylvanus and Ant. Pigafetta.

This edition is in all respects the same as that of 1612, except that a new and
differing title was given to it, and the dedication to Sir Julius Caesar suppressed in
most copies.
Though the whole work is, according to the title, "translated into English by
M. Lok," the first three Decades are an exact reprint of R. Eden's translation.

dichiaratione delli libri delle Indie, cauata da due carte da nauicare fatte in Sibilia
da li piloti della Maiesta Cesarea." Of this map not more than two or three
original copies are known. That in the copy here described is a facsimile by
Harris. M. Brunet was quite unaware of the existence of it, and mentions only the
smaUer map of " Isola Spagnuola."
The first part appears to be principally taken from the " Decades " of Peter
Martyr. The second from the work of Oviedo, printed at Toledo in 1 526, and the
third is a translation with additions of the anonymous work, " La conquista del
Peru," printed at Seville in 1534, and consisting of eight leaves. It has been
sometimes erroneously described as a translation of Francisco Xeres' " Verdadera
relacion de la conquista del Peru," also printed at SeviUe in 1534, but consisting of
eighteen leaves.

Field is supposed to have co-operated with Massinger in writing this play before

Brunet describes this volume as a small folio, and an ordinary copy would, no
doubt, appear so, but the present has fortunately suffered so little at the binder's
hands that it measures no less than 12 in. by 8 in. The register at the end does
not serve for a collation of the book, as it omits all mention of the three preliminary
leaves which contain the dedicatory epistle and the table. The first leaf of sig. a is
blank, and the second leaf of the sheet is marked a i. So that there are only seven
printed leaves to the first sheet. The signatures then run to p in eights, except
sigs. i, 1, and m, which have only six leaves each, though they would appear from
the register to consist of eight each. The volume may assuredly be reckoned
among the very rarest books of its class.

This is without doubt the earliest edition of this valuable tract, in which the
discoveries of Ferdinand Magellan and his companions were first announced.
Charles V. was at ValladoUd when the news reached him of the arrival at Seville
of the survivors of the expedition. He commanded them to come to Valladolid,
and an account of their adventures was taken down by his secretary, Maximilianus
Transylvanus, and also by Peter Martyr. The former addressed his account to his
father, the Cardinal Archbishop of Salzburg, and had it printed at Cologne, whence
he had recently returned with the Emperor. The account of Peter Martyr was
sent to Pope Adrian, who is known to have received it, but the MS. was subse
quently lost. The Roman editions of February and November are reprints of that
of Cologne, the date "Vallisoleti die xxiiii Octobris M.D.XXII." being omitted.
The year was reckoned at Cologne from January ist.

First edition. Brunet describes it as being in quarto, but that is clearly a
mistake. So highly did Von der Hardt esteem the importance of this edition of the " Loci
Communes," as exhibiting the state of the reformed doctrines at the time of its
publication, and so great was its rarity, that he reprinted it entire in his " Historia
Litteraria Reformationis," and says: "Videre jam suis oculis nostra potest a;tas,
quod optavit Hutems tam impense, quae fuerit conditio doctrine Evangelicaa in
Reformationis exordio, quoad omnia fidei capita." L. Hutter, in his " Loci Theo

A — Q in fours, not including a portrait of Robert, Earl of Essex, by W.
Marshall. The copy of this book described in part v. of the sale catalogue of Mr. Corser's
library had two additional introductory leaves. That copy is described as having
also two other additional leaves, one containing an Epigram addressed to " lohn
CambeU, Earle Lowdon," and the other, verses addressed to " Sir A. lohnstoun,
Lord Warestone," and to Sir Oliver Fleming, but these two leaves are in fact the
inset of sheet Q, and were only misplaced in Mr. Corser's copy. The present was
Heber's copy, and had been Narcissus LuttreU's. The portrait, which belongs to
the book, has been added since.
Of this volume some account may be found in the " Bibliotheca Anglo-Poetica,"
pp. 217-18, and in Mr. David Laing's recent monograph on Mercer and his works.
There were two title-pages printed to the book in 1646, one as above, the other as
given in the GrenviUe catalogue.

This is the only perfect copy known. That which belonged to Mr. Bright

On the reverse of that leaf occurs the following curious notice : —
" Within this Welcome will appear

MERLIN. Folio.
MS. on vellum, of the thirteenth century, of English or Norman-French exe
cution, with sixty-nine highly finished miniatures of very fine design. It consists of
229 folios, seven being deficient.
This unique and most precious manuscript was discovered in 1869 among
the books belonging to the late Comte de Corbi^re, by M. Paulin Paris, and is
described by Mr. FurnivaU as " the long-lost and long-sought book of Balin le
Sauvage, which Malory used in his immortal ' Morte d'Arthur,' the liook which
neither Southey nor any other student of Arthur romances could find."
The foUowing account of the volume is from the pen of the learned M. Paulin
Paris, with only such verbal alterations as were necessary to adapt it to the present
purpose. It has been necessary, however, to recopy the quotations, as the text
given by M. Paulin Paris did not at all represent the MS. :—
" Avant le travail des assembleurs, il y avait des romans sdpards qui racontaient
I'histoire d' Artus autrement que dans le texte adopts par les assembleurs. Et c'est
un de ces romans que nous offre le manuscrit Corbifere, et que I'auteur anglais du
Xve si&cle avait suivi dans la ' Morte d'Arthur,' tout en I'abrdgeant beaucoup. Ainsi
nous avons retrouvd en France I'original jusqu' k present non reconnu, sur lequel
Sir Thomas Malory avait rdgM sa traduction. Decouverte fort importante, qui
vient &. I'appui de mes conjectures precedentes : k savoir que la traduction en prose
du poeme de Robert de Borron avait eu, d^s le commencement du xill'' sifecle, une
assez grande vogue, puisqu'on en a jusqu'k present reconnu quatre copies ; et en
second lieu, que les branches d'Artus et de Lancelot, reproduites dans une foule
innombrable de manuscrits frangais, sont I'ceuvre des assembleurs du xilli<: siecle, et
ne contiennent pas toutes les anciennes compositions faites d&s la fin du xil= sifecle
sur les compagnons d'Artus et sur Artus lui-meme.
" Ce manuscrit, qui fut achete par le libraire Bachelin k la vente aprfes ddcSs des
livres du Comte Corbi^re, ancien ministre de nos derniers rois, Louis XVIII et
Charles X, contient les particularit^s suivantes.

Le chevalier aux deux epees raconte au roi ce qui vient de lui arriver et s'engage
dans la qu6te que le chevalier mort avait entreprise. Le roi fait faire une tombe
k la victime de Garlain avec les mots : ' Ci gist le chevalier mesconneus.'
" Ici, fo. 125, vo, s'ouvre une parenthfese assez importante de I'arrangeur, pour
nous annoncer la fin de la premi&re partie de ce livre de Merlin, et le commencement
de la seconde, qui devra remplir la fin du volume. Voici cette parenth&se :
" ' Or laisse li contes a parler dou roi & de .M. & parole del cheualier as .ij. espees.
Et pour conter coment il vient de la queste' a chief & coment il fist le cop p coi

mort de lanscelot. A chelui point mesme quU deuise de la mort le roi march. Et
cest chose a meittoit en la fin dou premier Uure. Pour chou q lestoire dou graal
estoit corrompue p auchuns translatours qui apres lui venisset. Tout li sage houme
qui meteroient lour entente a oir & a escouter porroient par ceste pole sauoir. se
eUe lour seroit vaiUie entiere ou corropue. Et comsteroient bii com bii il i faurront.
Puis quU a ore ensi deuise lassemet de so liure. il retorne a sa matiere en tel maniere.'
" On remarquera que notre volume commencant par la reduction en prose du
' Joseph d'Arimathie,' I'auteur de cette parenthfese devait entendre, par la troisieme
partie de Toeuvre qu'U attribue k Robert de Borron, le ' Uvre du Saint Graal,' com
pose comme je Tai demontre plus haut (page 3 et 4) par un autre que le ' Joseph.'
II ne faut pas penser que cette tierce partie qui commencera par le ' Graal,' soit la
' Quete du Graal ;' car les demiferes lignes de notre volume, qui finit avec la seconde
partie (egale en etendue k la premiere), nous disent :
" ' Si laisse ore atant li contes a parler & del dame & del roi. Et de toute la vie
Merlin. Et deuisera dune autre matiere qui parlera dou graal pour chou q cest li
comenchemens de cest liure.'
"On pourrait entendre ces mots, ' Et la tierche fenist U aprie la mort de lanscelot.
A chelui point mesme quil deuise de la mort le rcH march,' de la manifere suivante :
La troisieme finit par le recit de la mort du roi Lancelot (laquelle mort en effet
termine le ' Saint Graal,' voy. mon tome i, in fine), au moment ou reprend Thistoire
du roi March, c'est-k-dire, oil commence Thistoire de Tristan. Mais jamais le
'^ Tristan' ne fut attribue k Robert de Borron; je crois done qu'il y a une meprise
dans notre texte, et qu'il eiit fallu ' a celui point meme qu'il devise de la Marche.'
On salt que le livre de Lancelot commence par les mots : ' En la marche de Gaulle.'
Si Ton reconnait un second exemplaire de notre texte, on y trouvera sans doute la
legon que je propose : mais dans tous les cas personne au treizifeme sifecle n'attri-
buait le livre du roi Marc et de Tristan k Robert de Borron ; par consequent, notre
auteur n'a pu vouloir dire ici qu'il donnerait I'histoire de ' Marc ' dans la troisieme
partie d'un livre qu'il attribue k Borron.
" Ajoutons que si la troisieme partie avait contenu non seulement Thistoire de
•^ Lancelot,' mais celle du roi Marc et de la ' Qu^te du Saint Graal,' elle aurait neces-
sairement surpasse en etendue dix fois chacune des deux premieres parties ; — ce
qui dementirait Tobservation de notre assembleur, qui declare que les trois parties
de son pretendu livre de Robert de Borron etaient d'egale longueur. Le 'Graal,' au
contraire, aujourd'hui commencement, ou premiere partie du Cycle de la Table
Ronde, est precisement de I'etendue de la moitie de notre manuscrit Corbifere.
NouveUe preuve que cette troisifeme partie etait dans la pensee de Tassembleur, le
'Saint Graal.'
"A la fin du recit de la mort et des funeraillesde Balaham, dit le chevalier aux
deux epees, on trouve encore la preuve que la troisieme partie de notre redaction
ne se rapportait pas k Lancelot du Lac. Aprfes avoir dit que sur le lit ou Balaham
avait pris la lance dont U avait frappe Peiean, nul ne reposa depuis sans recevoir
la mort, excepte Lancelot et son fils Galaad; encore Lancelot ne fiit-il preserve
que par Tanneau que lui avait donne la dame du lac, notre assembleur ajoute :
" ' Et cel anelet li auoit donne la damoisiele del lac. si comme la giit hystoire de
lanscelot la deuise. Ce le meisme ystoire q doit estre deptie de mon Uure. Ne
nue [?] pour chou quil ni aptiegne & q elle nen soit traite mais pour chou quil
Duient ques les .iii. parties de mon Uure nigaus Lune aussi grant comme lautre.
Et se ie aiouslaisse cele grant ystoire la moi ptie de mon liure fust au tresble
plus grant q les autres deus. pour chou me conuient U laissier cette ystoire qui
deuise les oeures de lanscelot. & la naissance.' (fo. 149, 2me.)
"Notre seconde partie commence done au fo. 124, correspondant au chapitre
xiii du livre 2 de Sir T. Malory; mais la matiere est extremement abregee dans

MERLIN. 957
Malory, qui attribue mSme au second chevalier qui accompagne le chevalier aux
deux epees, le nom de ' Perin de Montbeliart ' que ne donne pas notre manuscrit.
Balaham, ou Balain, penetre dans le chateau du roi Peiean, frfere de Todieux Gar
lain, qui tombe sous ses coups. Peiean veut venger son frSre ; Balahan cherche
partout quelquearme qui remplace son epee brisee. II trouve sur un lit magnifique,
une forte et belle lance, la prend, en frappe Peiean, qui dfes lors ne fut plus appeie
que le roi ' Mehaigne,' celui auquel etait confie la garde du Graal. (Malory, ch. 1 5.)
L'histoire fatale et deplorable de ce pauvre chevalier aux deux epees est ici racontee
plus longuement et d'une fagon bien plus touchant© que dans le texte de Malory.
Sur sa tombe et sur celle de son fr^re, Merlin ecrivit : ' Chi gist balaam li chevaliers
a .ii. espees qui fist de la lanche venceresse le cop dolere^ p coi li roiaumes de
listinois est tomes a dolour.' (fo. 149.)
"Apr^s avoir longuement raconte tous les enchantemens disposes par Merlin
dans Tile des merveilles, oti etait conserve le Saint Graal, nous revenons au eourant
du 3= livre de Sir Th. Malory. La demande en mariage de Gin^vre fiUe de Leo-
degan; la cession que lui fait ce prince des chevaliers de la table ronde, reduits
alors au nombre de cent, et qu' Artus doit porter k 1 50. — Gauvain, Pelinor, Tor le
fils Ate, et autres, sont du nombre. — Les trois quotes de Gauvain, d'Urien, et
d'Accolon, amant de Morgain ; le combat d'Accolon contre Artus ;• comment Mor
gain tente de tuer son mari Urien. L'arrivee k la cour d'une demoiselle de Mor
gain portant un manteau empoisonne que le roi la contraint de revfitin Ici la
demoiselle du lac, qui etait venu Tavertir de la nouvelle trahison de Morgain, prend
conge d'Artus en lui recommandant de toujours honorer che valeric : 'A lendemain
sen parti od toute sa maisnie. Et li rois remais a carlion. Si laisse ore atant li

spond au milieu du seizifeme chapitre du quatri^me livre de Sir Th. Malory.
" Tel est ce manuscrit, qui a cela de particulier qu'il offre une redaction du
roman de Merlin tout dififerente de ceUe qui a ete consacree par les assembleurs
du xilll= sifecle, et dont M. Henry B. Wheatley vient de publier une ancienne tra
duction anglaise, entierement prise sur I'original frangais.
" Le manuscrit Corbifere est le seul jusqu'k present qui offre I'original' suivi dans
la traduction de Sir Th. Malory. Sans lui, nousaurions ete disposes k, croire que
Tancien ecrivain anglais avait invente les episodes qui different de ceux qui sont
contenus dans la traduction publiee par M. Wheatley. Ainsi nous sommes con
duits k reconnaitre qu'il y eut, dfes la fin du xil^ sifecle, plusieurs formes distinctes
de la seconde partie du roman de Merlin, et que les ecrivains que Ton chargeait de
disposer les differents recits de la table ronde, firent entrer dans leur compilation,
tant6t une de ces formes, tantot une autre. Les grands seigneurs pour lesquels
iis faisaient ces volumes, desiraient y trouver la reunion des branches qui d'abord
avaient parues separees et composees par des auteurs distincts. Celui qui a fait dis
poser le texte de ce manuscrit le coupa en trois parties, dont les deux premieres se
retrouvent dans le volume conserve, et dont la troisieme devait reprodnirele ' Saint

Brunet gives the number of leaves of text in the first volume as 211, and the last
leaf is so numbered, but there are really 216 leaves, the folios being very incorrect
throughout. Brunet also remarks that in the vellum copy in the National Library at
Paris, the heading of the text in the second volume occupies six lines, while in the
paper copy it occupies only three and a half lines. The present copy in this respect
follows the vellum impression.

Though bearing the date of 1624, with the name of Cramoisy as printer, this
piece appears to be printed at least a hundred years later. It merely contains the
title and dedication of Messingham's " Florilegium," in Latin and French, and at
p. 30 begins, " Note sur TEpitre dedicatoire de M. Messingham a MM. TEscalopier,
fils de Jean TEscalopier, mort en 1620, President du Parlement." This note on the
Escalopier family seems to be the object of the publication.

there must have been two previous editions.

" I haue scattred a few seedes vpon the yong ground of vnskilfulnesse," and a
little further on he adds : " My seedes, as yet, lodge in the bosom e of the earth, like
Infantes vpon the lappe of a Fauourite, wanting the budding spring-time of their
growth . . . . " In the address to the reader, the author speaks of this as his first

late, for that it was not published when the general voice of the people had seald it

From Sir Francis Freeling's and Dr. BandineTs libraries, with a very fine im
pression of the portrait of Prince Charles by Delaram inserted. It was presented
to Freeling by Dr. Dibdin, and is probably the copy described in Thorpe's catalogue
for 1824. It is in fine condition; but there is a second copy in the library which is
even taller and finer than this. Middleton subscribes his name at the end of the
entertainment ; the account of the Creation of the Prince was probably written by
another pen.

Though Mr. Dyce has pointed out that while two of the three knovra editions
have the same engraved title, it was re-engraved, with variations, for the third, this
fact is not recorded in any bibliographical work. Not only does the print vary, but

MIDDLETON— MIDGLEY. 965
the wording of the title is different. The edition described atiove is that which
is mentioned by Mr. Dyce as the most correct text, and distinguished by him as the
" C edition." The titles of the other editions run : " A Gam" at Cha2ss as it was Acted
nine days together at the Globe on the banks side," without any imprint. These have
every appearance of having been printed in England, but that described above was
probably executed abroad. By " Lydden," we may, no doubt, understand Leyden
as the place where it was printed. It is remarkable that such being the case it is so
much more correct than the editions which appear to have been printed in London.
Mr. Dyce mentions that Mr. J. P. Collier was in possession of a printed title with
the date of 1625, but no copy with a printed title is now known. In Mr. Dyce's edi
tion of the author's works may be found a full account of the play and of the circum
stances connected with the first performance of it. The frontispiece to the Leyden
copy has only two large full-length figures in the foreground, and above them is
inscribed respectively, " the White Hous " and " the Black Hous," while in the back
ground are the same two figures standing in a large sack. The other frontispiece,
of which a facsimile is given in Mr. Dyce's edition of Middleton's works, is in two
compartments. In the upper one are eight persons seated at a table with a chess
board in the centre, and in the lower compartment are three full-length figures
headed, " the Fatte Bishop," " the Black Knight," and " the White Knight." In the
background are the three figures in a sack.

on a sheet and bound up without any letterpress. These impressions appear to be

Dedicated to Lord Warwick. The frontispiece has no engraver's name ; in the
upper centre it contains a small head of the author.
This copy is accompanied by a duplicate printed title, dated 1652, and evidently
intended to serve for the two parts bound together. It runs : " The Nights Search :
Or, The cunning Curtizan discovered ; and The great Mystery of Iniquity exactly
revealed  Printedfor William Ley, at Raid's Chaine neer Doctors Commons.
1652." A plate of a woman with a torch is also inserted.
See the " Bibliotheca Anglo-poetica," Nos. 468-70. Prefixed to the first part of
the " Night's Search " are some commendatory verses by the author's brother,
Thomas Mill, M.A., of Oxford, and by Thomas Heywood, who addresses MiU as
"my adopted sonne." In the "British Bibliographer," ii., 328-36, is a long review
of this work by Joseph Haslewood.

In the dedication, Lawes says that it was "not openly acknowledg'd by the

he had in making transcripts from the original MS. to give away to friends. This

The first edition of Milton's " Lycidas " is contained in this volume. Prefixed is
an account of King in Latin, printed in capitals, and supposed by Warton to have
been written either by Milton or Henry More, the Platonist. The volume is divided
into two portions, the first containing the Latin and Greek tributes, the second,
those in English, with a separate title : " Obsequies to the memorie of Mr. Edward
King, Anno Dom. 1638." Among the writers of the English elegies are Henry King,
John Cleveland, and J.[ohn] H.[aU, of Cambridge?]. Milton's " Lycidas " appro
priately crowns the coUection, coming last in order. It bears only his initials.

" MarshaU's portrait of Milton, says Granger, was the first print of him ever
published. Salmasius in his ' Defensio Regia,' calls it comptula Iconem, and says
it gave him a more advantageous idea of his person than he ever had before ; but
that this opinion ill coincided with Milton's, is sufficiently proved by the Greek
verses under the portrait, and of which the following sentence is a translation : ' WiU
any one say that this portrait was the work of an ingenious hand ; my very friends,
looking at my own natural countenance, knew not whom it represents, but laugh
at the awkward imitation of the idiotic artist.' This is probably too satirical." —

MIRACLES OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN. Liber miraculo
rum domine nostre Sancte Marie. Sm. folio. R. M.
MS. on vellum, written in England at the end of the 12th or beginning of the
13th century.
This very remarkable manuscript consists of a number of original tales very
much in the style of the " Gesta Romanorum." One relates to the Abbot of Romsey.
Another gives the history of a monk who was much given to lechery, and who used
frequently to pass through a church on his way to a convent of nuns, where he went
with no good purpose : in passing through the church, however, he never omitted
to pay his homage to a figure of the Virgin which stood there. At last he fell into
a river on one of his journeys, and his soul was immediately seized by the devils,
and was being carried off to hell, when the Virgin Mary interposed, and rescuing
his soul from the devils, restored it to his body again as a reward for the devotion
he had shown to her.
Towards the end of the volume are a number of Latin rhyming hymns, which
appear to be quite different to those commonly known. Many of them are written
like prose, but are nevertheless in rhyme all throughout.

Baldwin's, and although Blener Hasset's second part is incorporated, the prelimi
nary matter and prose inductions are omitted, as had been done by Higgins in 1587,
in regard to Baldwin's set of legends. For Blener Hasset's legends of " Gwiderius"
and "Alured," are substituted one of " Gviderius," by Higgins, and one of " Alured,"

" Cromwell," by Drayton, published originally in 1607, and reprinted in 1609 with
alterations, is added to this edition.

nor the first have any place or date, and Mr. Blades must intend to refer to the
date of the translation which occurs on the last leaf, thus : " which book I began first
to translate the second day of Janyuer the yere of our lord/ M.CCCCLXXX. And
fynysshyd the viij day of Marche in the same yere." The book is fully described
by Blades, ii., 228-30. The present copy has the corners of the first three leaves
in facsimile. The text begins with a headline on a iiii verso.
The first edition, printed by Caxton about 1481, contains the earliest treatises
on arithmetic and music in the English language.

This is a reproduction of Caxton's edition, with the woodcuts reduced and a
variety of new ones inserted, some being more than once repeated. This edition is
of almost equal rarity with the two published by Caxton.
Mr. Blades (ii., 85) is mistaken in stating that many of the cuts in this impres
sion were taken from the same blocks as Caxton's, and Herbert (edit, of Ames,
p. 413) seems to have fallen into the same error. The title of the copy in the
British Museum differs slightly from the above.

This is the later impression of the first part described above. In the place of

up with six other parts of the romance, as described below, in two volumes, each
having Lord Charlemont's bookplate. On the flyleaf of vol. i. occurs : " I. Reed,

come under notice, unless that was so which was purchased at the Stevens sale in
1800 by Douce. See Steevens's Catalogue, No. 1158. The set in the British
Museum is more incomplete than the present.

A, 4 leaves ; B — Ll 4 in eights, first leaf of A blank.
Dedicated by the printer to Master Thomas Powle Esquire, Clerk of the Crown
in the Court of Chancery. Prefixed are some verses by G. G. to the reader.
The following entry occurs in the Stationers' Register, Aug. 24, 1582 : " Thomas
Easte. Licenced to him -vnder th[e h]andes of Master Barker and master Coldocke

and soe to be printed, condicionally notwithstandinge that when the same is trans
lated yt be brought to them to be pervsed, and yf any thinge be amisse therein to be
amended vj''."
This probably refers not to this " Second part of the first booke," but to " The
Second part of the Myrror of Knighthood," described in Mr. Hazlitt's Handbook as
printed by East in 1583, but which is unfortunately wanting in this set.

Dedicated to Master Richard Morris, his especial good friend, by the printer.
When the volumes were sold at Lord Charlemont's sale, this portion wanted four
leaves in sig. O, which have since been supplied from another imperfect copy of
the romance. No entry of it appears in the Stationers' Register.

[MISSALE ad usum Ecclesiae Bangoriensis.] FoUo. BR. M.
MS. on vellum ofthe early part ofthe fifteenth or end of the fourteenth century
of English execution. Very finely written in black and red, and many of the pages
decorated with floriated borders.
At the end of the calendar is the following inscription : " This Booke was geuen
to the hye alter of the Paryshe Churche of Oswestry by Sy^ Morys Griffith Prist.
To praye for all Christen sowles the yere of oure Lorde god a thowsande fyue
hundred fyfty & foure."
In this date there is an evident erasure in tJie word " fyve," the y and the e have
clearly been altered, and it is much more probable that the date of the gift was 1454
than 1554, though it is difficult to understand what object there can have been for
the alteration.
The plighting of troth differs somewhat from that which is usually found in the
printed missals, and reads thus : " I N. tak j^e N. to my weddyd wyf to haue & to

982 MISSALE— MISSON.

This invaluable MS. was fomierly in the possession of Mr. MaskeU and is par
ticularly mentioned in the preface to his work on " The Ancient Liturgy of the
Church of England." He there remarks: " I do not venture to say that it is certainly
that Use [Bangor], but I conceive there are many reasonable grounds for supposing
it to be so. It is undoubtedly an Enghsh missal, and not according to the uses
either of Sarum, York, or Hereford. A very slight examination even of the small
portion reprinted in this volume will be sufficient to establish this : a point con
firmed by many variations in the collects and offices throughout the book."
MISSALE, Speciale. Folio.
MS. on vellum, probably of English execution. It contains seven large minia
tures, five of which represent full-length figures of saints with their emblems. The
sixth represents the virgin and child, before whom kneels a figure which doubt
less is intended for the person for whom the volume was executed. It might have
been possible to identify the kneeling figure were it not that the coat of arms
beneath has been defaced. The seventh painting is the conventional representation
of the ten thousand martyrs, five naked figures transfixed on pointed stakes. This
occurs at the end of the canon of the mass.

Dedicated " To the most renowned Patronesse, and noble Nurse of Learning
Marie, Countesse of Penbrooke." by T. M., the initials, as there is now no reason to
doubt, of Thomas Moffat or Moufet, afterwards a physician of some note. In this
dedication he refers to some translation from Petrarch, on which he knew Lady
Pembroke to be then engaged. From his expression, " give rest to Sacred Writte,"
we may conjecture that she was at that time writing her poem on the Passion or
completing her own and her brother's version of the Psalms.
At sig. F 3 verso, the author speaks of having been in Italy in 1579, so that he
was probably not a very young man when he composed this work.
Mr. CoUier (" Bibl. Cat.," i., 539-40) gives a favourable account of the book, and

MS. of the sixteenth century on sixty-seven leaves of paper, written on both sides,
in a hand much resembling that known as " Lettres de civility."
It is very valuable and interesting for the picture it affords of the general
management and arrangement of a monastery, and appears to have been written
about the year 1500 for the use of "le Monastfere de notre Dame du Val de Grace,
aultrement diet val parfond," near Paris. The contents are very varied, from the
election of an abbess, and the manner of receiving and addressing princes and
nobles, to the arrangement of the domestic affairs of the abbey and the making of
conserves. MONFART, Henry de. An Exact and Cvriovs Svrvey Of all

4to. R. M.
The " Au Lecteur " which occupies the obverse of the second leaf, and the
" Extraict du Privilege" on the reverse of the last, are both dated 1588. There is
no date on the title, which is engraved as above within an elegant border ; a half-
inch of its lower margin folded by the binder to equal the rest of the book in size.
This is the case with all copies.
The first complete edition of the " Essais de Montaigne," and the last published
by the author. In it was printed for the first time the third book, and the text of
the first and second books was largely amphfied and corrected.
Since the impression of the 1582 edition of books i and 2 in their first rough
state, Montaigne had travelled and collected notes for the preparation of the third
book, and in 1588 he went to Paris to see the complete work through the press, as
appears in the edition above described. He prefaced it with the famous address to
the reader, of which the first words are so often quoted — " C'est icy vn liure de
bonne foy, lecteur." This address was so fairly descriptive of the book, and so
characteristic of the man, that it has been repeated in all subsequent editions,
except only that of 1595.

Other copies bear the name of L'Angelier on the titie. It was he who held the
privilege. Montaigne died in 1592, leaving a copy of the 1 588 edition covered with
MS. corrections by himself.
When in Paris in 1588, he had made the acquaintance of MUe. de Gournay,
already, at twenty-three years of age, noted for her learning. She had lost her
father, and was treated by Montaigne as a daughter, for which reason she always
styled herself his adopted child, and was considered such. Montaigne's widow, on
her husband's death, summoned MUe. de Gournay to Montaigne, where, in examin
ing his papers, she found the corrected copy of the edition of 1588, which she
describes in the preface to that of 1595. This last edition was published from the
corrected copy, under her care. She omitted the short " Au Lecteur," of Montaigne,
and substituted a long preface, which is very curious and interesting in various
ways. It is a protest against woman's position in society, an egoistical self-assertion
quite in Montaigne's own mode of thought, a pedantic, learned, and obscure eulogy
on the essays of her father by adoption. In spite of her own classical pedantry
she prefers the use of good old French to new Latinisms, and concerning the
language of Montaigne her preface has the foUowing remarkable words : " C'est le
clou qui fixera la volubility de nostre idiome, continue jusques icy."
The edition of 1595 has the merit of containing the author's latest additions, and
of being the " Editio parens " of all succeeding impressions.

MONTAIGNE— MONTANUS. 989
A, 8 leaves; verses by Samuel Daniel, i leaf; errata, i leaf; B — Kkk 4 in
sixes. The first edition in English. The copies of this edition, which belonged to
Shakespeare and Ben Jonson, are both in the British Museum. The signature of
Shakespeare, which occurs in his copy on the flyleaf facing the title, is very in
effectively represented in the photographic and other copies. In the original it is
firm and clear. At p. 102 is a passage (reprinted entire in Hazlitt's " Shakespeare's
Library," part i., vol. iv., pp. 7-8), which is copied almost literally at act 2, scene i of
" The Tempest."
The following is the entry of Montaigne's Essays in English, presumably Florio's
version, at Stationers' Hall (Arber, iii., 3) : —
"20 of October 1595
Edward Aggas. Entred for his Copie vnder the handes of the Wardenes 'The
Essais ' of Michaell Lord of Mountene."
Hence it would seem that the book was actually ready many years before it was
committed to the press, and it may have been circulated in MS. among Florio's
friends. Edward Blount registered the Essays with Florio's name as the trans
lator, on the 4th June, 1600, three years before their actual appearance in type, so
far as we know. See Arber, iii., 59.

The only bibUographer who mentions this book is Antonio, and as no author's
name is given on the title it was only to be found by searching the " Index materia-
rum," and there we find under " Historise diversarum sacrarum imaginum Marise
deiparas," the entry, " Gundisalvus de Sojo. De Monserrate." Turning to this
author's name we have the following account : " F. Gundisalvus de Sojo, Bene-
dictinus, aut forte antiquior alius monachus inclitas domus S. Marise Virginis de
Monteserrato in Catalonia, edidit : ' Historia y milagros de Nuestra Senora de
Monserrate. Barcinone. 1594.' Svo. post antiquiores editiones annorum 1568.
& 1587. Attamen prima conceptio hujus operis facta est anno MDXIV. ad instan-
tiam D. Joannis de Aragonia, ducis de Luna, comitis de Ribagorza, ut ex praeambula
innotescit epistola ejus ad monasterii abbatem." This edition of 1550 was evidently
unknown to Antonio and apparently to all other bibliographers.
On the flyleaf of this copy is a MS. inscription, by T. v. Freundtsperg, to the
effect that he purchased the book on the mountain itself, on the 23rd of July, 155 1,
and Richard Ford, the Spanish traveller and scholar, to whom the book afterwards
belonged, has remarked in a note on the flyleaf, that Freundtsperg was the name of
the commander of Charles Vth's German Hausknechts. Ford bought the volume
at Heber's sale.

C, 4 leaves ; CC, 4 leaves ; A — M in fours. In verse. On the back of the title
are the arms of the Earl of Oxford.
In the dedication the author refers to his lost translation of the romance of
" Galien of France," and to his travels abroad. Between Boulogne and Abbeville,
Munday and his companion were stripped to their shirts, and nearly murdered,
which much surprised our author, for, says he, " before I thought that euery man
beyond the seas was as frank as an Emperour, and that a man might liue there a
Gentlemans life, and doo nothing but walke at his pleasure."
The " Mirror of Mutability" is written on the plan of the " Mirror for Magis
trates," but all the themes, as the title states, are taken from Holy Writ. Munday
introduces each narrative by a prose " induction."
This was the author's second known publication, and was printed by the typo
grapher to whom he served his apprenticeship to a vocation which he seems very
soon to have abandoned. Not more than five perfect copies are known ; the
present was Herbert's and Heber's.

Dedicated to Sir Edward Bromley, Knight. In that epistle, and also in the
notice to the reader, Munday speaks of this volume as a promise discharged, and
in the latter place he seems to say that many persons disaffected to him had
doubted whether he would dare to publish these revelations. A large folded cut in
four compartments, illustrating the sufferings of Richard Atkins, the person alluded
to in the titie-page, precedes the narrative. The account of Atkins occupies the
concluding chapter.
The work was reprinted in 1590. In the British Museum is a small tract
printed in 1581, giving a separate and fuller account of Atkins's case.

The only copy known. It has belonged successively to Mr. Park (Bib. Ang.-
Poet.), Mr. Rice, and Mr. Geo. Daniel. The work was licensed to Thomas Hacket,
6 July, 1584, but no earlier edition than 1588 is now known. It is very fully
described in the Bibliotheca Anglo-Poetica.
In the dedication " To the worshipfuU and his especiall good friend, Maister
Richard Topcliffe Esquire, A. M. commendeth this small motion of his vnfeigned
good wiU and affection," he goes on to say, " though the world so frowne vpon me,
that I cannot as I woulde : yet that poore Talent which God hath lent me (if it
were sufficient for so many courtesies) shall at all times expresse, that I am loth to
be vnthankfuU. I therefore desire your worshyppe to accept of this slender gift."
This is foUowed by an interesting notice to the reader. At the end occurs this
memorandum : " The seconde seruice of this Banquet (vppon the gentle and good
receit of this first) I will verie shortlie publish. Wherein is manie excellent Ditties,
and such as I doubt not but thou wUt well esteeme of." No sequel, however, is
known to have appeared.

This volume is remarkable as the earliest printed mythological dictionary, and
also as the only example of Berthold Rodt's printing which has his name appended

gave evidence for him in his lawsuit with Fust in 1455. Hain, 11,642.

Seventy-six leaves, including the title.
The earliest edition vrith which Brunet was acquainted was that of Rouen, 1603,
which he describes as " 3 tom. in l vol.," but he gives no collation, and does not
say of how many leaves it consists. He also mentions that an edition of 1600,
printed at Tours, was sold in the Bibliotheca Stanleiana for ^5. This edition ot
Rouen, 1600, appears to be quite unknown to bibliographers. From the fact of it
being described on the title as " de nouveau reveue, corrigee et augmentee," it might
be supposed that there was an edition printed earlier in the century, but the preface to
the reader speaks of this as a first edition.

This is the second edition of 1592, but the first genuine impression. Prefixed is
a private epistle from the author to the printer, written from the country, where he
was staying in consequence of the plague ; in it he complains of the former spurious
issue with its " long-tailed" title, and gives us to understand that the present edition
was undertaken to forestall a reported reprint of the piracy, with a fictitious " Se
cond Part," although Nash adds that he might hereafter write a sequel to be
called " the retourne of the Knight of the Post from HeU, with the Deuil's answer
to the supplication." A tract with this very title was printed in 1606, but it was not
from Nash's pen.

In the epistle dedicatory prefixed to the first series or volume, the authoress
remarks : " My resolution was, that when I had done writing, to have dedicated all
my works in gross to your lordship [her husband] ; and I did verily believe that
this would have been my last work: but I find it will not, unless I dye before I
have writ my other intended piece. And as for this Book of Playes, I believe I
should never have writ them, nor have had the Capacity nor Ingenuity to have
writ Playes, had not you read to me some Playes which your Lordship had writ,
and lye by for a good time to be Acted, wherein your Wit did Create a desire in
my Mind to write Playes also, although my Playes are very unlike those you have
writ, for your Lordships Playes have as it were a natural life, and a quick spirit in
them, whereas mine are like dull dead statues, which is the reason I send them
forth to be printed."

A and B, 8 leaves each ; C, lo leaves. Then begins a new part. A — F, 8 leaves
each, but note that the sig. A comes on the third leaf of the sheet, the first leaf
begins, "[A] Staygidis rex." Sig. G is omitted. H, 8 leaves ; then follow four leaves
without signature, the first containing a cut of the Virgin surrounded by a glory
formed of swords, the last with the verso blank. Sig. H H, 8 leaves ; I and K,
8 leaves each ; L, 6 leaves. On the last leaf is a register of signatures, but it would
be difficult to collate an imperfect copy by this, though it is useful to see how a per
fect one is made up. It takes no account of the first part, containing twenty-six
leaves. 1492 is given on A ii as the year in which the work was compiled. The
date of printing was probably not more than a year or two later. Some of the wood
cuts are extremely curious. One represents Christ leaving the disciples at Emmaus
by passing through a crack in the wainscot, and in another it is endeavoured to sym- ^
bolize the doctrine of the Trinity by three children standing in one boot.

imperfect copy, formerly Heber's, was sold among Mr. Corser's books. The title-
page, with the names of the petitioners on the back of it, and the preface, together
two leaves, were taken out of the latter, and have been inserted in this copy of

NIZAMI. The Five Poems [Khamsa = Quinio or Quinary] ofthe
Persian poet Mohammed ben Yusuf Shaikh Nizim ud Din of Gandj,
known as Nizami. Sm. folio.
Beautifully written, with illuminated opening pages. Executed at Shfrdz, by
Mfrzi Aci-si (Aghassi) Nddd 'Ali el-Hoseini, in A. H. 1234-1237 (about 1819). In a
native binding, magnificently lacquered, painted with birds and flowers, and inlaid
with texts from the poet, forming such a specimen of modem art-work as can rarely
be seen. Nizami lived in the twelfth century of our era, and flourished under the patronage
of the Seljiik king, Kilidj ArsMn. His five romantic poems (Khamsa) are also
called Pandj Gandj (the Five Treasures), a title which puns upon his own name
Gandji, derived from his birthplace. In imitation of Nizami most later Persian
poets have attempted a " khamsa," but no one has equalled him. The names of
the poems are as follows, the sixth being a very rare supplement to the fifth : —
I. Makhzan ul Asrar \jJi\ ^js*. Treasury of Secrets.
2. Khosrii va Shfrin j _jbt. my^s... Adventures of the two famous lovers,
Khosru and Shirfn.

Suitor. 5. Iskender-n^meh x«L) .jJICjjI. Romantic History of Alexander the Great.
6. Sharaf-ndmeh ilUilJ ^jiit , Continuation of Alexander's story. This is so
scarce that very few MSS. contain it, and Hammer, when writing the history of
Persian poetry, knew nothing of it, conjecturing that death .or a change of mind
had caused Nizami to stop short at the end of vol. i. (It is also called the Ikbdl-
nimeh, or the second volume of the Iskender-ndmeh.)

Herbert in his edition of Ames, p. 1401, differs as to the imprint in having the
words, " & veneunt in Caemeterio Paulino, sub signo capitis Tygurini " between the
printer's name and the date, so that two title-pages must have been printed to the
tract. These odes were composed by some loyal Oxonian on the occasion of Babing-

James and Dr. Heton.

The author of this volume is unknown, and no other copy of it has been met
with. From some lines to Edwards on his " Gangr£ena," at p. 76, it might be
inferred that these poems were written many years before they were printed. Of
Glaucus, a poetaster, the writer says : —
" The Muses yet he does not quite despise,

Brunet quotes this edition, vol. iv., col. 168, but the title which he gives differs
from this copy. It is probably quoted incorrectly by him, as the year and day of
the month are the same, and the copy he describes has the same number of leaves.
The first twenty-four leaves are without signature, and then foUow sigs. A — T in

Boninis does not appear to have printed anything himself later than 1491, when we
find him quoted by Panzer as the printer of three books at Brescia, where he had
been established as a printer for some years. He printed also at an earher date at
Venice and Verona.

The place and printer's name are alike fictitious. Indeed, it may be doubted if
even the writer has not disguised his identity, and the book was not really from the
pen of Bale, and from the Basle press. A volume published under the name of
Olde, in 1555, bears the imprint of "Waterford," but Lowndes says that the types
are the same as those found in the " Confession."

Black letter. Woodcuts.
A most beautiful copy, with rough edges, in the original binding, of an edition
hitherto undescribed. It consists of thirty-four leaves, including the title. It is
bound in the same volume with the " Palmerin d'Oliva."
Neither Salvd nor GaUardo mention any edition between those of Seville, 151Q,
and Alcala, 1604, though Brunet cites editions at SeviUe, 1544, and at Burgos, 1554.
This edition of 1535 appears to have escaped the researches of all bibliographers,
and is probably unique.

Antonio mentions the first edition of this work as printed at Madrid in 1595, and
the second at the same place in 1608, but these dates are no doubt mistakes for
1596 and 1605. See Salvd's catalogue. No. 830. The work is a poem in nineteen
books in octave stanzas. " It is," says Ticknor, " mainly historical, and ends at last
with an account of the capture of ' that English pirate Richerte Aquines ' — no doubt
Sir Richard Hawkins, who was taken in the Pacific in 1594, under circumstances
not more unlike those which Oiia describes than might be expected in a poetical
version of them by a Spaniard."

This curious volume is fully described in the Cicognara Catalogue, No. 1992,
but neither there nor in Brunet is the most important fact respecting it men
tioned, namely, that it is a veritable block book, the whole of the text being
engraved on wood. It is the only known work of the kind printed in Italy, and it
is remarkable that it should have appeared at so late a date. Count Cicognara
assigns to it the date of 1510-12, but it is probably several years later than that.
The name of Giov. Andrea Vavassore is found appended to editions of Ariosto in
1549-56, as the publisher. Count Cicognara thus concludes his notice of the book :

Following the title-page is a long and interesting preface, setting forth the cir
cumstances and conditions under which this hospital was founded in the preceding
reign for 100 sick persons, and endowed with 1,000 marks a year, half to be given
by the Crown and half by the Corporation. At the end we find, " A daily seruice
for the poore," " The Letany and Suffrages," a thanksgiving, and, lastiy, "A passeport
to be deliuered to the Poore," i.e., a certificate dehvered to each inmate on leaving.
The last figure ofthe date on the titie is so indistinct that it is impossible to say
if it is intended for a 2, a 3, or an 8. Herbert quotes an edition of 1553 which was
probably identical with this.

The present copy has on the flyleaf, " Frances Shaen her Book given her by my
Lady Dowager of Orrery. 1680," and on the other side a second inscription
belonging to 1685.
From the collections of Dr. Bliss and Mr. Corser. The former notes : " See
Walpole's Royal and Noble Authors, by Park, vol. 5, pp. 191-3. See a very good
account of Lord Orrery in the Biographia Britannica, art. Boyle. Horace Walpole
had never seen this volume, which he describes as printed ; but he knew neither the
size nor date. Mr. Brand had a copy in MS. dated 1678, and entitled, ' Poems on
the chiefest Holy-daies in our Churches Kalendar.' It wiU be remarked from the
MS. entry of Frances Shaen above, that this vol. was antedated. It was evidentiy
published in 1680, although dated in the foUowing year."
It may be added that the heading at the beginning of the main part of the book
is, " Poems on the Cheifest Holy Dayes In the Kalendar of The Chvrch."

This is one of the early reprints of the original and most rare impression of
Marlowe's translation of Ovid's Elegies and Davies's Epigrams. Though it bears
the imprint of Middleburgh, it was no doubt from a London press. The original
edition may be assigned to 1 596 or 1 597 ; but the present reissue can hardly be
eariier than 1620. Here the elegies precede the epigrams, whereas in the first
edition the epigrams occur first, the elegies following with a separate titie-page.

This facetious tract, written in the style of " The Raven's Almanac," by Decker,
1609, is dedicated to Sir Timothy ThornhiU by the publisher. There is also "The
Owles Epistle to the Rauen," in which Decker's tract is mentioned. On the title-page
is a woodcut of an owl in a study, standing on a chair, and holding a pen in its claw.
The work is reviewed at some length by Collier (" Bibl. Cat.," ii., 80-3), who
seems inclined to attribute it to Decker from the terms of the epistle above-men
tioned. Mr. Corser (" Collectanea," v., 171), considers that it may safely be attri
buted to Decker. From Mr. Corser's collection.
OXINDEN, Henry, of Barham. Common-place book, 1647-60.

MS. From the library of Lee Warley, dispersed at Canterbury a few years ago.
This is a singular collection of prose and verse, religion and licentiousness. It con
tains anecdotes of Marlowe, Jonson, &c. The volume, which is in the original
vellum binding, is lettered on the back, " MisceUany, 1617. MS. by H. O." On one
side of the cover occurs, " Lee Warley, Canterbury, 1764," with " Adjutor meus esto
Deus," " Hodie mihi, eras alteri," and other mottoes.
This curious volume contains, among other matters, a Ust of 122 old English
plays, bound in six volumes, at that time (1647-60) in the possession of Oxinden.
