+INEDITED LETTER FROM THE EARL OF SHAFTESBURY, AUTHOR OF THE

+
+    [We are indebted to our valued correspondent JANUS DOUSA, for a
+    transcript of the following important letter--the original of which is
+    preserved in the Remonstrant Library of Amsterdam--and for which our
+    correspondent acknowledges his obligations to the great kindness of
+    Prof. des Amories van der Hoven.]
+
+"St. Giles's, in Dorset, Feb. 8-13. 1705.
+
+"Sir,--Having once writt to you in my own Language, I continue to use the
+same Privilege. I am sorry that I am in no better a condition to acquit my
+self of my Promise to you. My Recovery has been so slow, that I am scarce
+yet got up: and I have been unable to hold any Correspondance with my
+Friends in Town. Mr. King promisd to send me the Papers I mention'd to you
+of Mr. Lock's; who, it seems, had begun some Memoires of his own relating
+to my G^d Father. These however imperfect, yet as being Mr. Lock's own I
+should have been glad to send you with what supplement I could make myself:
+But Mr. King's Engagements in the Publick affaires has made him delay this
+so long, that according to the account you have given me of the shortness
+of your Time, I must wayt no longer: but content my self with giving you
+what I can out of my own head, without other Assistance.
+
+"Mr. Lock came into my Grandfathers Family in the summer of the year 1666,
+recommended by his Friend[1] Mr. Bennet of y^e town of Shaftesbury. The
+occasion of it was thus. My Grandfather had been ill for a great while
+after a Fall, by w^{ch} his Breast was so bruised that in time it came to
+an Imposthumation (?) within, and appeard by a swelling under his stomach.
+Mr. Lock was at that time a student in Physick at Oxford: and my
+Grandfather taking a journey that way to drink the Waters (having Mr.
+Bennett in y^e Coach with him), He had this young Physician presented to
+him: who tho' he had never practic'd Physick; yet appear'd to my
+Grandfather to be such a Genius that he valew'd him above all his other
+Physicians, the great men in practice of those times. Accordingly on his
+advice and allmost solely by his Direction my G^d Father underwent an
+Operation w^{ch} sav'd his Life, and was the most wonderfull of the kind
+that had been heard of, till that time. His Breast was layd open, the
+matter discharg'd, and an Orifice ever afterwards kept open by a silver
+pipe: an Instrument famouse {98} upon Record, in the Writings our Popish
+and Jacobite Authors, who never faild to reproach him with this Infirmity.
+
+"After this Cure, Mr. Lock grew so much in esteem with my Grand-Father that
+as great a Man as he had experienc'd him in Physick; he look'd upon this
+but as his least part. He encourag'd him to turn his Thoughts another way.
+Nor would he suffer him to practice Physick except in his own Family and as
+a kindness to some particular Friend. He put him upon the studdy of the
+Religiouse and Civil affaires of the Nation with whatsoever related to the
+Business of a Minister of State: in w^{ch} he was so successfull, that my
+G^d Father begun soon to use him as a Friend, and consult with him on all
+occasions of that kind. He was not only with him in his Library and Closet,
+but in company with the Great Men of those times, the Duke of Buckingham,
+Lord Hallifax and others, who being men of Witt and Learning, were as much
+taken with him. For together with his seriouse, respectfull and humble
+Character, he had a mixture of Pleasantry and a becoming Boldness of
+Speech. The Liberty he could take with these great Men was peculiar to such
+a Genius as his. A pleasant Instance of it runs in my Mind: tho' perhaps
+the relation of it may not be so pleasing to another.
+
+"At an appointed Meeting of two or three of these Great-Men at my G^d
+Father's House, more for Entertainment and good company than for Business,
+it happen'd that after a few Compliments the Cards were called for, and the
+Court-Fashion prevailing, they were engag'd in Play before any Conversation
+was begun. Mr. Lock sate by as a spectator for some time. At least taking
+out his Table-Book, he began to write something very busily: till being
+observd by one of the Lords, and ask'd what he was meditating; My Lords
+(sayd he) I am improving my self the best I can in your Company: for,
+having impatiently wayted this Honour of being present at such a meeting of
+the wisest Men and greatest Witts of the Age, I thought I could not do
+better than to write your Conversation: and here I have it, in substance,
+all that has pass'd for this hour or two. There was no need of Mr. Lock's
+writing much of the Dialogue. The great men felt the ridicule, and took
+pleasure in improving it. They quitted their Play, and fell into a
+Conversation becoming them: and so passed the remainder of the Day.
+
+"When my G^d Father, from being Chancellor of the Exchequer, was made High
+Chancellor (w^{ch} was in the year 1672) he advanc'd Mr. Lock to the Place
+of Secretary for the Clergy: and when my G^d Father quitted the Court and
+began to be in Danger from it, Mr. Lock now shard with him in Dangers, as
+before in Honours & Advantages. He entrusted him with his secretest
+negotiations, and made use of his assistant Pen in matters that nearly
+concerned the State, and were fitt to be made publick, to raise that spirit
+in the Nation which was necessary against the prevailing Popish Party.
+
+"It was for something of this kind that got air, and out of great
+Tenderness to Mr. Lock that my Grandfather in the year 1674 sent him abroad
+to travell: an Improvement w^{ch} my G^d father was gladd to add to those
+he had allready given him. His Health servd as a very just Excuse: he being
+consumptive as early in his Life as that was. So that having travelld thro'
+France he went[2] to Montpelier and there stayd for some time. He returnd
+again to my G^d Fathers in the year 1678, and remaind in his Family till
+the year 1682: w^{ch} was the year that my G^d Father retird into Holland
+and there dyed. Mr. Lock who was to have soon followd him thither, was not
+prevented in the voyage, by this Death: but found it safest for him to
+retire thither, and there lived (at our good Friend Mr. Furly's of
+Rotterdam) till the happy Revolution of King William, w^{ch} restord him to
+his native Country and to other Publick offices of greater Note, w^{ch} by
+fresh Meritts he deserv'd: witness his then Publishd Books of Government,
+Trade and Coin: by w^{ch} he had as considerably servd the State, as he had
+done the Church and Protestant Interest by his defence of Toleration and
+support of the Revolution-Principles.
+
+"But of this part of his Life, you need no Information.
+
+"Thus far I have made mention of Mr. Lock as to his station in Publick
+affaires, under my Grandfather. Now as to his Service in private affaires,
+and the Concerns of a Family, w^{ch} was, in every respect, so happy in
+him, that he seem as a good Guardian Angel sent to bless it.
+
+"When Mr. Lock first came into the Family, my Father was a youth of about
+fifteen or sixteen. Him my Grandfather entrusted wholly to Mr. Lock for
+what remain'd of his Education. He was an only Child, and of no firm
+Health: w^{ch} induc'd my G^d Father, in concern for his Family to think of
+marrying him as soon as possible. He was too young and unexperienc'd to
+chuse a Wife for himself: and my Grandfather too much in Business to chuse
+one for him. The affair was nice, for tho' my Grandfather requir'd not a
+great Fortune, he insisted on good Blood, good Person and Constitution, and
+above all, good Education, and a Character as remote as possible from that
+of Court- or Town-bred Lady. All this was thrown upon Mr. Lock, who being
+allready so good Judge of Men, my Grand Father doubted not of his equal
+{99} Judgment in Women. He departed from him, entrusted and sworn, as
+_Abraham's_ Head-servant[3] _that ruled over all that he had_, and went
+into a far-Country (the North of England) _to seek for his Son a Wife_
+whome he as successfully found. Of Her, I and six more of us, Brothers &
+Sisters, were born; in whose Education Mr. Lock govern'd according to his
+own Principles (since publishd by him) and with such success that we all of
+us came to full years, with strong healthy Constitutions: my own the worst;
+tho' never faulty till of late. I was his more peculiar Charge: being as
+eldest son, taken by my Grandfather, & bred under his immediate Care: Mr.
+Lock having the absolute Direction of my Education, and to whome next my
+immediate Parents as I must own the greatest Obligation, so I have ever
+preserved the highest Gratitude & Duty.
+
+"I could wish that my Time and Health would permit me to be longer in this
+Account of my Friend and Foster-Father, Mr. Lock. If I add any thing as you
+desire, concerning my Grandfather himself, it must have a second place:
+this being a subject more selfish and in w^{ch} I may justly suspect my
+self of Partiality: of w^{ch} I would willingly be free: and think I truly
+am so in this I now send you. But I fear least this (such as it is) should
+come too late, and therefore hasten to conclude with repeated Assurances of
+my being your Oblig'd Friend and humble Servant
+
+"SHAFTESBURY.
+
+"P.S. If after what I have said I dare venture a Word to you as to my
+Grandfather's Apology for the one and only thing I repine at in his whole
+Life (I mean the unhappy Words you mention _delenda est Carthago_), It must
+be this: That the Publick would not insist on this as so ill, and
+injuriouse; if they considered the English Constitution and manner of those
+times in w^{ch} the Prince more lofty in Prorogative and at greater
+distance from his People than now of days, used but a few Words to his
+Parlement; and committed the rest to his Keepers or Chancellor, to speak
+his sence for him (as he expresses it in y^e conclusion of his own speech)
+upon w^{ch} my Grandfather, the then Chancellor, and in his Chancellor's
+Place[4], spoke of King's sence, as the King's mouth; in y^e same manner as
+the Speaker of the House of Peers or Commons, speaks the House's sence, as
+_the House's mouth_ (for so he is esteemd and calld) whatsoever may be his
+own private sence; or tho' he may have deliver'd his own Opinion far
+contrary.
+
+"Such was my Grandfather's Call: who was far from delivering his Vote or
+Opinion in this manner, either as a Councillor or Peer, or in his Place in
+Parlement: where he carryed on a direct opposite Interest: he being
+allready in open Enmity with the Duke of York and his Party that carryed on
+that Warr, in so much that he was at that very time suspected of holding a
+Correspondence with Holland in favour of the Commonwealth-Party in England.
+However it be, it is no small Comfort to me that that wise Commonwealth of
+Holland, the Parent and Nursing-Mother of Liberty, thought him worthy of
+their Protection when he was a sufferer for the common Cause of Religion
+and Liberty: and he must ever remain a noble Instance of the Generosity of
+that State, and of that potent Head of it, y^e City of Amsterdam; where
+yourself and other Great Men have met with a Reception y^t will redound to
+their Honour.
+
+"My Grandfather's _turning short upon the Court_ (as[5] Sir William Temple
+expresses it) had only this plain reason for it; that he discoverd the King
+to be a Papist, through that disguise of an _Esprit fort_, w^{ch} was a
+character his Vices and over fondness of Witt made him affect and act very
+naturally. Whatever Complyances my Grandfather, as a States-man, might make
+before this discovery, to gain the King, from his Brother and y^e French
+Party, he broke off all, when by the Duke of Buckingham's means, he had
+gaind this secret. For my Grandfather's Aversion and irreconcileable Hatred
+to Popery, was (as Phanaticisme,) confessd by his greatest Enemyes to be
+his Master-Passion. Nor was it ever said that the King left him: but He the
+King, for nothing was omitted afterwards by that Prince to regain him; nor
+nothing to destroy him, when that was found impossible----
+
+"But I must end: least I fail this Post."

+
+"The same Person has left me a written account of that affaire; and so

+
+MR. GOUGH'S TRANSLATION OF THE HISTORY OF THE BIBLE.
+
+In vol. vi., p. 266., of Nichols's _Literary Anecdotes_, "Memoirs of Mr.
+Gough," is the following anecdote of Mr. Gough's precocious talents--
+
+    "At the very early age of eleven he commenced a task that would have
+    reflected credit on any period of life; which, by the indulgence of his
+    mother, appeared in print under the title of '_The History of the
+    Bible_, translated from the French by R. G., junior, 1746. London:
+    Printed by James Waugh in the year 1747.' Of this curious volume,
+    consisting of 160 sheets in folio, not more than twenty-five copies
+    were printed, as presents to a few particular friends and when
+    completed at the press, it is marked by way of colophon, 'Done at
+    twelve years and a half old.'"
+
+Mr. Nichols in his notes says, that the French edition was printed at
+Amsterdam, in 2 vols. folio, with plates, 1700. That by the generosity of
+Mr. Gough's worthy relict, he had a copy of the work with Mr. Gough's
+corrections in maturer age; and in a note at p. 642. of this volume of the
+_Literary Anecdotes_ Mr. Nichols further states, that
+
+    "By a singular chance, at a sale of the library of Dr. Guise in
+    January, 1812, he met with two copies of Mr. Gough's juvenile
+    translation of the _History of the Bible_; and at the end of one of the
+    volumes were ten sheets of Mr. Pickering's _Dictionary_, perhaps the
+    only copy of them in existence."
+
+The Rev. Roger Pickering was Mr. Gough's tutor until he was admitted at
+Bene't College, Cambridge, July, 1752, being then in the 17th year of his
+age. This Dictionary was compiled on the plan of Calmet, but left
+unfinished.
+
+Mr. J. B. Nichols, son of the late venerable octogenarian, having recently
+presented me with a copy of Mr. Gough's scarce volume, I am anxious to
+learn by whom the original French work was written, and where a copy may be
+purchased. It is one of much erudition; sound in doctrine and principle;
+pleasing and familiar in its language, and would, I should think, well
+repay the publisher of a new edition, after a careful correction of a few
+deficiencies in composition, incidental to the early period at which Mr.
+Gough translated it. There is nothing in the preface, or in any part of the
+volume, to indicate the name of the original author. Should Mr. J. B.
+Nichols still possess Mr. Gough's more matured and corrected copy, he might
+perhaps discover some reference to the author.

+FOLK LORE.
+
+_Lammer Beads_ (Vol. iii. p. 84.).--If L. M. M. R. had taken the trouble to
+consult Jamieson's _Etymological Dictionary_,--that rich storehouse of
+curious information, not merely in relation to the language, but to the
+manners and customs, and the superstitions of North Britain,--he would have
+found interesting notices connected with his inquiry. See the word LAMMER,
+and the same in the Supplement. We might accept, without a moment's
+hesitation, the suggestion of a learned friend of Dr. Jamieson's, deriving
+Lammer from the French, _l'ambre_, were it not that Kilian gives us Teut.
+Lamertyn-steen, _succinum_. In Anglo-Saxon times it was called Eolhsand
+(_Gloss. Ælfr._), and appears to have been esteemed in Britain from a very
+early period. Amongst antiquities of the Anglo-Saxon age, beads of amber
+are of very frequent occurrence. Douglas has collected some interesting
+notes regarding this substance, in his _Nenia_, p. 9. It were needless to
+cite the frequent mention of _precularia_, or Paternosters, of amber,
+occurring in inventories. The Duke of Bedford, Regent of France, purchased
+a most costly chaplet from a Parisian jeweller, in 1431, described as "une
+patenostres à signeaux d'or et d'ambre musquet." (Leber, Inventaires, p.
+235.) The description "de alba awmbre," as in the enumeration of strings of
+beads appended to the shrine of S^r William, at York Minster, may have been
+in distinction from jet, to which, as well as to amber, certain virtuous or
+talismanic properties were attributed. There were, however, several kinds
+of amber,--_succinum rubrum_, _fulvum_, &c. The learned professor of
+Copenhagen, Olaus Worm, alludes to the popular notions and superstitious
+use of amber--
+
+    "Foris in collo gestatum, contra fascinationes et nocturna
+    terriculamenta pueros tueri volunt; capitis etiam destillationibus, et
+    tonsillarum ac faucium vitiis resistere, oculorum fluxus et ophthalmias
+    curare."
+
+By his account it would seem to have been received as a panacea, sovereign
+for asthma, dropsy, toothache, and a multitude of diseases.
+
+    "In summâ (he concludes) Balsami instar est, calorem nativum roborans
+    et morborum insultibus resistens."--_Museum Wormianum_, p. 32.
+
+Bartholomaeus Glanvilla, in his work, _De Proprietatibus Rerum_, has not
+overlooked the properties of amber, which he seems to regard as a kind of
+jet (book xvi., c. xlix.).
+
+    "Gette, hyght Gagates, and is a boystous stone, and never the les it is
+    precious."
+
+He describes it as most abundant and of best quality in Britain of two
+kinds, yellow and black; it drives away adders,--
+
+    "Is contrary to fendes,--helpeth for fantasies and ayenste vexacions of
+    fendis by night.--And so, if so boystus a stone dothe so great wonders,
+    none shuld be dispisid for foule colour without, while the vertu that
+    is within is unknowe." (Translation by Trevisa.)

+
+ON CATALOGUES OF BOOKS.
+
+A series of notes on the _utility_ of printed catalogues of public
+libraries may seem to be a superfluity. It may be said, _Who ever denied
+it?_ Relying on a official document, I can assert that it _has_ been
+denied--in defiance of common sense, and the experience of two hundred and
+fifty years!
+
+At such a time, it behoves every lover of literature to declare himself,
+and to furnish his quota of facts or arguments corrective of this upstart
+paradox. It is under the influence of that sentiment that I submit, for
+consideration in the proper quarter, some short extracts from my
+bibliographic portfolios.
+
+BOLTON CORNEY.
+
+    "The forwardness of your CATALOGUE [of the public library at Oxford] is
+    very good tidings.... I would intreat you to meditate upon it, how it
+    may be performed to both our credits and contents."--_Sir Thomas_
+    BODLEY to _Tho. James_, c. 1604.
+
+    Habes, benigne lector, catalogum librorum, eo ordine dispositum, quo in
+    celeberrima Oxoniensi bibliothecâ collocantur; opus diu multumque
+    desideratum, et jam tandem editum."--_Thomas_ JAMES, 1605.
+
+    "Quamprimum benignis academicorum suffragiis in bibliothecarium electus

+Minor Notes.
+
+_The "Winter's Tale."_--As MR. PAYNE COLLIER is making inquiries as to the
+origin of Shakspeare's _Winter's Tale_, perhaps he will allow me to call
+his attention to an oversight he has committed in his edition of Greene's
+_Pandosto_, in the series called _Shakspeare's Library_. In a note to the
+introduction, p. ii., MR. COLLIER says,
+
+    "Some verbal resemblances and trifling obligations have been pointed
+    out by the commentators in their notes to the WINTER'S TALE. One of the
+    principal instances occurs in Act IV. Sc. 3., where Florizel says:
+
+                     "'The gods themselves,
+      Humbling their deities to love, have taken
+      The shapes of beasts upon them: Jupiter
+      Became a bull and bellow'd; the green Neptune
+      A ram, and bleated; and the fire-rob'd god,
+      Golden Apollo, a poor humble swain,
+      As I seem now. Their transformations
+      Were never for a piece of beauty rarer,
+      Nor in a way so chaste.'
+
+    "'This,' says Malone, 'is taken almost literally from the novel'--when,
+    in fact, the resemblance merely consists in the adoption by Shakspeare
+    of part of the mythological knowledge supplied by Greene. 'The gods
+    above disdaine not to love women beneath. Phoebus liked Daphne; Jupiter
+    Io; and why not I then Fawnia?' The resemblance is anything but
+    literal."
+
+It would appear, however, that the passage cited by MR. COLLIER is not the
+one referred to by Malone. MR. COLLIER's passage is at p. 34. of his
+edition of the novel; the one Malone evidently had in view is at p. 40.,
+and is as follows:--
+
+    "And yet, Dorastus, shame not at thy shepheard's weede: the heavenly
+    godes have sometime earthly thoughtes. Neptune became a ram, Jupiter a
+    bul, Apollo a shepheard: they Gods, and yet in love; and thou a man,
+    appointed to love."
+
+E. L. N.
+
+_Inscribed Alms-dish._--There is an alms-dish (?) {102} in the possession
+of a clergyman near Rotherham, in this county, with the following
+inscription:--
+
+"VREEST . GODT . ONDERHOVEDT . SYN . GEBOEDT . ANNO . 1634."
+
+[Fear God (and?) keep his commandments.]
+
+Having so lately been so justly reproved by your correspondent, MR. JANUS
+DOUSA, for judging of Vondel's _Lucifer_ by an apparently unjust review
+rather than by perusal,--and his beautiful chorus having so fully
+"established his case,"--I am rather shy of making any remarks upon this
+inscription: otherwise I would venture (errors excepted) to observe that
+there _may_ be a mistake in the position of the last three letters of the
+third word.
+
+If MR. DOUSA would kindly inform a _very_ imperfect Dutch scholar whether
+this sentence is intended as a quotation from Ecclesiastes xii., 13th
+verse,--
+
+ "Vreest Godt ende hout sÿne geboden;"
+
+or whether the third word is from the verb "_onder houden_,"--as _looks_
+probable, I shall be greatly obliged to him. The Bible to which I refer is
+dated 1644.
+
+Being neither a scholar nor a critic, but only a lover of books and
+languages, I hope MR. DOUSA will accept my apology for the affront offered
+to his countryman, Vondel. Your publication has been a great temptation to
+people with a few curious books around them to set sail their little boats
+of inquiry or observation for the mere pleasure of seeing them float down
+the stream in company with others of more importance and interest. I
+confess myself to have been one of the injudicious number; and having made
+shipwreck of my credit against M. Brellet's _Dictionnaire de la Langue
+Celtique_, and also on Vondel's _Lucifer_, I must here apologise and
+promise to offend no more. If MR. DOUSA will not be appeased, I have only
+to add that I "send him my card." As Mrs. Malaprop said to Sir Lucius
+O'Trigger--
+
+ "Spare my blushes--_I_ am Delia."
+
+HERMES.
+
+P. S. Can MR. DOUSA fix a positive date to my undated _History of Dr. John
+Faustus_?
+
+_Landwade Church._--It appears to me that an important service would be
+rendered to posterity, if a full account were taken of all the monuments
+and inscriptions in such deserted churches as Landwade appears to be. Such
+records may ere long become invaluable, and every day is hastening them to
+oblivion. Already hundreds of such churches, with the several monuments and
+inscriptions they contained, have entirely passed away. I have been making
+some investigation into the demolished and desecrated churches of
+Buckinghamshire, and am astonished at the number of monumental records
+which have thus perished. Thirty-one churches at least have been lost to
+the county, and some of them were rich in monumental memorials.
+
+Other counties, doubtless, have equally suffered. Would it not, therefore,
+be well to collect accounts of the memorials they contained, so far as they
+can be obtained, and have them recorded in some publication, that they may
+be available to future historians, genealogists, and antiquaries? Is there
+any existing periodical suitable for the purpose?

+_The First Edition of the Second Book of Homilies, by Queen Elizabeth in_
+1563.--In the edition of the _Homilies_ at the Oxford University press in
+1822, and which from inspection, in the portion concerned, appear to be the
+same in the last, I find in the Advertisement, page iv. note d., that there
+exist _four editions_ of the date 1563. Of these, I presume, are two in my
+possession, and I conclude one of them to be the _first edition_ on the
+following grounds:--_That_ one, printed by Richard Jugge and John Cawood,
+1563, has in the last page and a half, "Faultes escaped in the printyng,"
+which appear to have been _corrected_ in all the subsequent editions, and
+are as they stand in the subsequent and modern editions, I presume, up to
+the present time. But the principal proof arises from a cancelled leaf in
+the Homily, "Of Common Prayer and Sacraments," as it stands in the Oxford
+edition of 1822, p. 329-331. The passage in question, as it there stands,
+and stands likewise in another edition of 1563, which I have, begins within
+three lines of the end of the paragraph, p. 329.,--"eth, that common or
+public prayer," &c., and ends at p. 331. line 13.,--"ment of baptism and
+the Lord's supper," &c. In my presumed first edition the original passage
+has been dismissed, and the substituted passage, being one leaf, _in a
+smaller type_, in order plainly to contain more matter, and it is that
+which appears, as I suppose, in all subsequent and the present copies. It
+would have been a matter of some curiosity, and perhaps of some importance,
+to have the original cancelled passage. But every intelligent reader will
+perceive that the subject was one which required both delicacy and
+judgment. Is any copy existing which has the original passage? My copy
+unfortunately is imperfect, wanting three leaves; and I apprehend this is
+an additional instance in which the first edition of an important work has
+been in a manner thrown aside for its imperfection; as was the case with
+the real first edition of the _Canons and Decrees of the Council of Trent_,
+and the _Execution of Justice_ given to Burghley. As the Oxford editor
+wished for information upon this subject, it is hoped that the present
+communication may not be unacceptable to him.

+
+DUTCH TRANSLATION OF A TRACT BY ROBERT GREENE.
+
+I was thinking of sending you a note or two on an early Dutch translation
+of a very celebrated English tract when your last number came to hand, by
+which I find that so much interest has been produced by "NOTES AND QUERIES"
+in Holland, that certain _literati_ are about to establish a similar work
+in that country. If I mistake not, what I now transmit will be acceptable
+to your Batavian friends, and not unwelcome to those who approve of your
+undertaking on this side of the water.
+
+A good deal has been advanced lately regarding the interest taken by the
+inhabitants of Holland, Belgium, and Germany, in our ancient drama; and in
+consistency with what was said by Thomas Heywood more than 200 years ago,
+some new information has been supplied respecting the encouragement given
+to English players abroad. The fact itself was well-known, and the author
+last cited (Shakspeare Society's reprint of the _Apology for Actors_, 1841,
+p. 58.) furnishes the name of the very play performed on one occasion at
+Amsterdam. The popularity of our drama there perhaps contributed to the
+popularity of our lighter literature, (especially of such as came from the
+pens of our most notorious playwrights,) in the same part of Europe, and
+may account for the circumstance I am about to mention.
+
+At this time of day I need hardly allude to the reputation the celebrated
+Robert Greene obtained in England, both as a dramatist and a pamphleteer;
+and although we have no distinct evidence on the point, we need hardly
+doubt that some of his plays had been represented with applause in Holland.
+_The Four Sons of Aymon_, which Heywood tells us was acted with such
+strange effect at Amsterdam, must have been a piece of precisely the same
+kind as Greene's _Orlando Furioso_, which we know was extraordinarily
+popular in this kingdom, and may have been equally so abroad. We may thus
+suppose that Greene's fame had spread to the Netherlands, and that anything
+written by him would be well received by Batavian readers.
+
+His _Quip for an Upstart Courtier, or, a Quaint Dispute between
+Velvet-breeches and Cloth-breeches_, was published in London in 1592, and
+went through two, if not three, impressions in its first year. It was often
+reprinted, and editions in 1606, 1615, 1620, 1625, and 1635, have come down
+to us, besides others that, no doubt, have entirely disappeared. That the
+fame of this production extended to Holland, I have the proof before me: it
+is a copy of the tract in Dutch, with the following imprint--"_Tot Leyden.
+By Thomas Basson_. M.D.CI." A friend of mine writes me from Rotterdam, that
+he has a copy, without date, but printed about twenty or five-and-twenty
+years after mine of 1601, which shows how long the popularity of the tract
+was maintained; and I have little doubt that mine is not by any means the
+earliest Dutch impression, if only because the wood-cut of the Courtier and
+the Countryman (copied with the greatest precision from the London
+impression of 1592) is much worn and blurred. The title-page runs as
+follows, and the name of Robert Greene is rendered obvious upon it for the
+sake of its attraction:--
+
+    "Een Seer vermakelick Proces tusschen Fluweele-Broeck ende
+    Laken-Broeck. Waer in verhaldt werdt het misbruyck van de meeste deel
+    der Menschen. Gheshreven int Engelsch door Robert Greene, ende nu int
+    Neder-landtsch overgheset. Wederom oversien."
+
+At the back of this title is printed a short address from the translator to
+the _Edele ende welghesinde Leser_, which states little more than that the
+original had been received from England, and concludes with the subsequent
+quatrain:--
+
+ "Ghemerckt dit Dal vol van ydelheyt
+  Soo lachet vrij als Democritus dede:
+  Doch zy gheraeckt met vvat Barmherticheyt:
+  Als Heraclyt, bevveen ons qualen mede."
+
+The spelling and punctuation are the same as in the original, and the body
+of the tract follows immediately:
+
+    "Staende eens smorghens op van eene onrustige nacht rust, ende vindende
+    mijn ghemoet noch wat onstelt, gingh ick wandelen nae de vermacklyche
+    velden, om mijn Gheest wat te vermacken, dan wesende noch in een
+    Melancholijcke humeur, seer eensaem sonder eenighe gheselschap, worde
+    ick seer slaperich: alsoo dat ick droomde. Dat iek een Dal sach wel
+    verceirt, &c."
+
+As few of your readers will have the means of referring to the original
+English, I quote Greene's opening words from an edition of 1592:--
+
+    "It was just at that time when the Cuckoulds quirister began to bewray
+    Aprill, Gentlemen, with his never-changed notes, that I, damped with a
+    melancholy humor, went into the fields to cheere up my wits with the
+    fresh aire: where solitarie seeking to solace my selfe, I fell in a
+    dreame, and in that drowsie slumber I wandered into a vale, &c."
+
+The Dutch version fills thirty-two closely printed pages, and ends with the
+succeeding literal translation of Greene's last sentence:--
+
+    "Tot dese Sententie (aldus by de Ridder ghepronuncieert) alle de
+    omstaende Stemde daer toe, ende klapten in haere handen, ende maeckte
+    een groot geluyde, waer door eck waeker worde, ende schoot uyt mynen
+    Droom, soo stout ick op, ende met een vrolijck ghemoet, gingh ick
+    schryven, al her gene, dat ghy hier ghehoort hebt."
+
+The above is one of the few books I purchased when I was in Holland some
+thirty years ago; and as I have quoted enough for the purpose of {104}
+identification, I may conclude with asking some of your Dutch
+correspondents, whether the tract, in this or in any other edition, is of
+considerable rarity with them? In England I never saw a copy of it but that
+in my possession. I may add that every paragraph is separately numbered
+from 1 to 110, as if the production were one of importance to which more
+particular reference might be made than even by the pagination.

+
+THE BLACK ROOD OF SCOTLAND.
+
+(Vol. ii., pp. 308. 409.)
+
+I am not satisfied with what W. S. G. has written on this subject; and as I
+feel interested in it, perhaps I cannot bring out my doubts better than in
+the following Queries.
+
+1. Instead of this famous cross being destined by St. Margaret for
+Dunfermline, was it not transmitted by her as an heir-loom to her sons?
+_Fordun_, lib. v. cap. lv. "_Quasi munus hæreditarium transmisit ad
+filios._" Hailes (_Annals_, sub anno 1093) distinguishes the cross which
+Margaret gifted to Dunfermline from the Black Rood of Scotland; and it is
+found in the possession of her son David I., in his last illness. He died
+at Carlisle, 24th May, 1153. (_Fordun_, ut supra.)
+
+2. Is not W. S. G. mistaken when, in speaking of this cross being seized by
+Edward I. in the Castle of Edinburgh in 1292, he says it is in a list of
+muniments, &c., found "_in quadam cista in dormitorio S. Crucis._" instead
+of in a list following, "_et in thesauria castri de Edinburgh inventa
+fuerunt ornamenta subscripta?_" (Ayloffe's _Calendars_, p. 827.;
+Robertson's _Index_, Introd. xiii.)
+
+3. When W. S. G. says that this cross was not held in the same
+superstitious reverence as the Black Stone of Scone, and that Miss
+Strickland is mistaken when she says that it was seized by King Edward, and
+restored at the peace of 1327, what does he make of the following
+authorities?--
+
+(1.) _Fordun_, lib. v, cap. xvii:
+
+    "Illa sancta crux quam nigram vocant omni genti Scotorum non minus
+    terribilem quam amabilem pro suæ reverentia sanctitatis."
+
+(2.) _Letters to the Right Reverend the Lord Bishop of Carlisle,
+occassioned by some Passages in his late Book of the Scotch Library, &c._,
+ascribed to the historian Rymer: London, 1702. From a "notable piece of
+Church history," appended to the second Letter, it appears that the Black
+Rood accompanied King Edward in his progresses, along with a famous English
+cross--the Cross Nigth,--and that he received on these two crosses the
+homage of several of the Scottish magnates. (The same thing, I have no
+doubt, will appear from the _Foedera_ of the same historian, which I have
+it not in my power to refer to.)
+
+(3.) _Chronicon de Lanercost_, printed by the Maitland Club, Edinburgh,
+1839, p. 283. Alluding to the pacification of 1327:
+
+    "Reddidit etiam eis partem crucis Christi _quam vocant Scotti
+    Blakerode_, et similiter unam instrumentum.... Ragman vocabatur.
+    Lapidem tamen de Scone, in quo solent regis Scotiæ apud Scone in
+    creatione sua collocari, Londonensis noluerunt a se demittere
+    quoquomodo. Omnia autem hæc asportari fecerat de Scotia inclytus rex
+    Edwardus filius Henrici, dum Scottos suæ subjiceret ditioni."
+
+Fabian and Holinshed report the same thing.
+
+4. Is not Fordun _quoting_ from Turgot and Aelred (whom he names Baldredus)
+when he speaks of "illa sancta crux _quam nigram_ vocant?" And how does the
+description of the Durham cross,--
+
+    "Which rood and pictures were all three very richly wrought in silver,
+    and were all smoked black over, being large pictures of a yard or five
+    quarters long," &c. &c.,--
+
+agree with the description of the Black Rood of St. Margaret which, as Lord
+Hailes says, "was of _gold_, about the length of _a palm_; the figure of
+ebony, studded and inlaid with gold. A piece of the true cross was enclosed
+in it"?
+
+5. As to the cross "miraculously received by David I., and in honour of
+which he founded Holyrood Abbey in 1128," and which some antiquaries (see
+_A Brief Account of Durham Cathedral_; Newcastle, 1833, p. 46.) gravely
+assert was to be seen "in the south aisle of _the choir_ of Durham
+Cathedral at its eastern termination, in front of a wooden screen richly
+gilt and decorated with stars and other ornaments," are not all agreed that
+the story is a mere monkish legend, invented long after Holyrood was
+founded (although, perhaps, not so recent as Lord Hailes supposed)? and is
+it not, therefore, absurd to speak of such a cross being taken at the
+battle of Durham, or to identify it with the Black Rood of Scotland?
+
+6. The quotation of W. S. G. from the _MS. Dunelm_ is curious; but is there
+any contemporary authority for the Black Rood having been taken with King
+David at the battle of Durham? I can find none.
+
+7. Is it not, however, probable that King David lost _two_ crosses at
+Durham, one a military cross, carried with his army, and taken from the
+Abbey of Holyrood; and the other the famous Black Rood found on his person,
+and made an offering to the shrine of St. Cuthbert? This would reconcile
+some apparent discrepancies.
+
+8. I find it noticed by Richardson in his _Table Book_ (Newcastle, 1846,
+vol. i. p. 123.), that "there is a letter in the British Museum (Faustina,
+A 6. 47.) from the prior of Durham to the Bishop (then absent), giving an
+account of the battle of Neville's cross." Has this letter been printed,
+and where? If not so, will any of your correspondents have the {105}
+kindness to examine it, and say if it gives any information as to a cross
+or crosses captured with the King of Scots?

+
+_Musical Plagiarism._--I think I remember to have heard, two or three years
+ago, of an action for damages brought against an eminent composer, on
+account of plagiarism in a musical composition; and that the defendant's
+argument was founded on the fact, that there exist very few really
+"original compositions," if originality excludes every form of plagiarism.
+And he adduced as examples the "See the conquering hero," of Handel; and
+the "Zitti Zitti," of Rossini. Can any of your readers refer me to the
+minutes of this trial; and tell me if any book has been published in
+criticism of the originality of composers?

+_Sir Walter Raleigh._--In speaking of the difficulty which exists in
+obtaining a perfect knowledge of any event, reference is often made to Sir
+Walter Raleigh having witnessed an occurrence, while confined in the Tower,
+and that two witnesses gave such a different account from each other as
+well as from himself, that he threw his MS. history into the fire. In what
+contemporary work is this recorded?

+Bellenden. Both these pieces are printed in Holinshed's _Chronicles_, 2
+vols. fol. 1587. In the prefaces Harrison speaks of a work on _Chronology_,
+"which I have yet in hand." Has that work ever been printed? I discovered
+the manuscript of it last year, in the Diocesan Library of Derry, in

+
+I am inclined to think that some at least of the comedies in the hands of a
+skilful author might be made entertaining and popular.
+

+_Strutt's Queen Hoo Hall._--Some years back I purchased of a son of the
+late Joseph Strutt, a copy of _Queen Hoo Hall_, containing manuscript {106}
+memoranda by that son relating to his father and to Walter Scott. Amongst
+other matters it states, that the original manuscript of that romance was
+submitted to Mr. Scott before it was published, and that he retained it a
+long time before he published his _Waverley Novels_. Mr. Strutt, jun.,
+accuses him of taking hints and facts from his parent's work. He also
+stated that the story of the Illuminator in _Queen Hoo Hall_ is mainly an
+account of the life of his father. The three volumes I gave to my friend
+and patron, Mr. John Broadly, whose very fine and choice library was sold
+by auction after his death, with the copy of the work referred to. I am

+yesterday by the centre door on the south, I observed on a pillar to the
+right, a sculpture of a cardinal's hat with the usual cord and tassels
+properly coloured, beneath which was a coat of arms, quartering alternately
+three lions and three fleur-de-lis. There is no name or date upon it. It

+_Names Bacon and Fagan_.--The very curious and interesting information
+which has come to light in the replies to my Query about the origin of the
+patronymic BACON, emboldens me to put another question upon the subject.
+
+I have long suspected, but have been unable to prove, that the names Bacon
+and Fagan were originally one and the same. Bacon, it appears, is a Saxon
+word, meaning "of the beech tree." Fagan, I presume, is as undoubtedly from
+the Latin "de fago," "of the beech tree."
+
+The approximation of sound in these names is sufficiently evident. That the
+letters C and G have been commonly convertible between the Latin and Saxon
+is without doubt. Query: Have B and F been at all used convertibly? Or can
+any of your readers, by any other means, strengthen the probability, or
+prove the truth, of my conjecture?
+
+NOCAB.
+
+_Blunder_.--What is the origin of this word? In Woolston's _First Discourse
+on Miracles_ (Lond. 1729), at p 28., I find this passage:--
+
+    "In another place he intimates what are meant by oxen and sheep, viz.,
+    the literal sense of the Scriptures. And if the literal sense be
+    irrational and nonsensical, the metaphor we must allow to be proper,
+    inasmuch as nowadays dull and foolish and absurd stuff we call _Bulls_,
+    _Fatlings_, and _Blunders_."
+
+This would seem to imply that in Woolston's days _blunder_ was the name of
+some animal; but in no dictionary have I been able to find such a
+signification attributed to it. The Germans use the words _bock_ and
+_pudel_ in the same sense as our word _blunder_.

+matter of great importance to all students of our early history, and the
+liberal mention of its projectors, to bring under the notice of their
+countrymen all Queries likely to be answered by them, is one calculated to
+clear up many obscure points in our early history. Sir H. Nicolas concludes
+his valuable papers on the Badge and Mottoes of the Prince of Wales
+(_Archæologia_, vol. xxxi. p. 372.) by expressing his belief that both the
+former, namely, _the Feathers_, and the mottoes, "_Ich Dien_" and
+"_Houmout_," were derived from the House of Hainault, possibly from the
+Comté of Ostrevant, which formed the appanage of the eldest sons of the
+Counts of that province. Perhaps I may be allowed, through your columns, to
+invite the attention of the correspondents of "DE NAVORSCHER" to this

+
+TOUCHSTONE'S DIAL.
+
+(Vol. ii., p. 405.; vol. iii., p. 52.)
+
+How is it that Mr. Knight, who so well and so judiciously exposes the
+absurdness of attempting to measure out a poet's imaginings by
+rule-and-compass probability, should himself endeavour to embody and
+identify Touchstone's dial--an ideal image--a mere peg on which to hang the
+fool's sapient moralizing.
+
+Surely, whether it was a real moving animated pocket watch, that was
+present to the poet's mind, or a thumb ring dial, is an inquiry quite as
+bootless as the geographical existence of a sea-coast in Bohemia, or of
+lions and serpents in the forest of Ardennes.
+
+When Thaliard engages to take away the life of Pericles if he can get him
+within his "pistol's length," are we seriously to inquire whether the
+weapon was an Italian dagger or an English firearm? or are we to debate
+which of the interpretations would be the lesser anachronism?
+
+But your correspondents (Vol. ii., p. 405. and vol. iii., p. 52.) approve
+of, and confirm Mr. Knight's suggestion of a ring dial, as though it were
+so self-evident as to admit of no denial. Nevertheless, neither he nor they
+have shown any good reason for its adoption: even its superior antiquity
+over the portable time-piece is mere surmise on their parts, unaccompanied
+as yet by any direct proof. In point of fact, the sole argument advanced by
+Mr. Knight why Touchstone's dial should be a ring dial is, that "_it was
+not likely that the fool would have a pocket watch_." Well, but it might
+belong to Celia, carried away with the "jewels and wealth" she speaks of,
+and, on account of the unwieldy size of watches in those days, intrusted to
+the porterage of the able-bodied fool.
+
+When Touchstone said, so very wisely, "_It is ten o'clock_," he used a
+phrase which, according to Orlando in the same play, could only properly
+apply to a mechanical time-piece. Rosalind asks Orlando, "I pray you what
+is it _a clock?_" to which he replies, "You should ask me what time _o'
+day_; there's no clock in the forest." Again, when Jacques declares that he
+did laugh "an hour by his dial," do we not immediately recall Falstaff's
+similar phrase, "an hour by Shrewsbury clock?"
+
+If it shall be said that the word "dial" is more used in reference to a
+natural than to a mechanical indicator of time, I should point, in reply,
+to Hotspur's allusion:
+
+ "Tho' life did ride upon a dial's point
+  Still ending with the arrival of an hour"
+
+The "dial's point," so referred to, must be _in motion_, and is therefore
+the hand or _pointer_ of a mechanical clock.
+
+A further confirmation that the Shakspearian "dial" was a piece of
+mechanism may be seen in Lafeu's reply to Bertram, when he exclaims,
+
+    "Then my dial goes not true,"
+
+using it as a metaphor to imply that his judgment must have been deceived.
+
+These are some of the considerations that would induce me to reject Mr.
+Knight's interpretation, and, _were it necessary to realize the scene
+between Jacques and Touchstone at all_, I should prefer doing so by
+imagining some old turnip-faced atrocity in clock-making presented to the
+fool's lack-lustre eye, than the nice astronomical observation supposed by
+Mr. Knight.
+
+The ring-dial, as described by him, and by your correspondents, is likewise
+described in most of the encyclopædias. It is available for the latitude of
+construction only, and was no doubt common enough a hundred years ago; but
+it is scarcely an object as yet for deposit in the British Museum.

+
+The Ring Dial, perhaps the most elegant in principle of all the forms of
+sun dial, has not, I think, fallen into greater disuse than have sun dials
+of other constructions. To describe, in this place, a modern ring dial, and
+the method of using it, would be useless: because it is an instrument which
+may be so readily inspected in the shops of most of the London opticians.
+Messrs. Troughton and Simms, of Fleet Street, make ring dials to a pattern
+of about six inches in diameter, costing, in a case, 2_l_. 5_s_. They are,
+in truth, elegant and instructive astronomical toys, to say the least of
+them; and indicate the solar time to the accuracy of about two minutes,
+when the sun is pretty high.
+
+Formerly, ring dials were made of a larger diameter, with much costly
+graduation bestowed upon them; too heavy to be portable, and too expensive
+for the occasion. For example, at the apartments of the Royal Astronomical
+Society, at Somerset House, a ring dial, eighteen inches in diameter, may
+be seen, constructed by Abraham Sharp, contemporary and correspondent of
+Newton and Flamstead; one similar to which, hazarding a guess, I should
+say, could not be made under 100_l_. At the same place also may be seen,
+belonging to Mr. Williams, the assistant-secretary of the society, a very
+handsome oriental astrolabe, about four inches in diameter, richly chased
+with Arabic characters and symbols; to which instrument, as well as to
+modern ring dials, the ring dials described in "NOTES AND QUERIES" (Vol.
+iii., p. 52.) seem to bear relation. If I recollect right, in one of the
+tales of the _Arabian Nights_, the barber goes out, leaving his customer
+half shaved, {108} to take an observation with his astrolabe, to ascertain
+if he were operating in a lucky _hour_. By his astrolabe, therefore, the
+barber could find the _time_ of day; _this_, however, I confess I could not
+pretend to find with the astrolabe in question. Ring dials, as I am
+informed, are in demand to go out to India, where they are in use among
+surveyors and military men; and, no doubt, such instruments as the
+astrolabe above-mentioned, which, though pretty old, does not pretend to be
+an antique, are in use among the educated of the natives all over the East.

+WINIFREDA.
+
+(Vol. ii., p. 519. Vol. iii., p. 27.)
+
+Subjoined is a brief notice of the various printed forms in which the old
+song called "Winifreda" has, from time to time, been brought before the
+public. I am indebted for these particulars to a kind friend in the British
+Museum, but we have hitherto failed in discovering the author.
+
+1. The song first occurs as a translation from the ancient British language
+in D. Lewis's _Collection of Miscellaneous Poems_, 8vo. 1726, vol. i., p.
+53., pointed out by your correspondent, MR. HICKSON. (Vol. ii., p. 519.)
+
+2ndly. In Watts' _Musical Miscellany_, vol. vi., p. 198. Lond. 1731; it is
+with the tune, "Eveillez vous ma belle Endormie," and is called "Winifreda,
+from the ancient language."
+
+3dly. As an engraved song entitled "Colin's Address;" the words by the Earl
+of Chesterfield, set by W. Yates, 1752. The air begins "Away, &c."
+
+4thly. In 1755, 8vo., appeared _Letters concerning Taste_, anonymously, but
+by John Gilbert Cooper; in Letter XIV. pp. 95, 96, he says,--
+
+    "It was not in my power then to amuse you with any poetry of my own
+    composition, I shall now take the liberty to send you, without any
+    apology, an old song wrote above a hundred years ago by the happy
+    bridegroom himself."
+
+Cooper then praises the poem, and prints it at length.
+
+5thly. In 1765, Dr. Percy first published his _Reliques_, with the song, as
+copied from Lewis.
+
+6thly. We find an engraved song, entitled "Winifreda, an Address to
+Conjugal Love," translated from the ancient British language; set to music
+by Signor Giordani, 1780. The air begins, "Away, &c."
+
+7thly. In Ritson's printed Songs as by Gilbert Cooper, Park's edition,
+1813, vol. i., p. 281., with a note by the editor referring to Aikin's
+_Vocal Biography_, p. 152.; and mentioning that in the _Edinburgh Review_,
+vol. xi., p. 37. "Winifreda" is attributed to the late Mr. Stephens,
+meaning George Steevens.
+
+8thly. In Campbell's _British Poems_, 1819, vol. vi., p. 93., with a Life
+of John Gilbert Cooper, to whom Campbell attributes the authorship, stating
+that he was born in 1723, and died in 1769; he was, consequently, only
+three years old when the poem was printed, which would settle the question,
+even if his disclaimer had been merely a trick to deceive his friend.
+
+Lord Chesterfield's claim is hardly worth notice; his name seems to have
+been used to promote the sale of the "Engraven old Song;" and no one can
+doubt that he would gladly have avowed a production which would have added
+to his literary fame.
+
+Whether the problem will ever be solved, seems very doubtful; but I am
+disposed to think that the song belongs to a much earlier period, and that
+it should be looked for amongst the works of those poets of whom Izaak
+Walton has left us such agreeable reminiscences; and whose simplicity and
+moral tone are in keeping with those sentiments of good feeling to which
+"Winifreda" owes its principal attraction.
+
+BRAYBROOKE.
+
+Audley End.
+
+_Winifreda_ (Vol. iii., p. 27.).--LORD BRAYBROOKE has revived a Query which
+I instituted above forty years ago (see _Gent.'s Magazine_ for 1808, vol.
+lxxviii., Part I. p. 129.). The correspondent, C. K., who replied to my
+letter in the same magazine, mentioned the appearance of this song in
+Dodsley's _Letters on Taste_ (3rd edition, 1757.) These letters, being
+edited by John Gilbert Cooper, doubtless led Aikin, in his collection of
+songs, and Park, in his edition of Ritson's _English Songs_, to ascribe it
+to Cooper. That writer speaks of it as an "old song," and with such warm
+praise, that we may fairly suppose it was not his own production. C. K.
+adds, from his own knowledge, that about the middle of the eighteenth
+century, he well remembered a Welsh clergyman repeating the lines with
+spirit and pathos, and asserting that they were written by a native of
+Wales. The name of Winifreda gives countenance to this; and the publication
+by David Lewis, in 1726, referred to by Bishop Percy, as that in which it
+first {109} appeared, also connects the song with the principality. An
+Edinburgh reviewer (vol. xi. p. 37.) says that it is "one of the love
+songs" by Stephens (meaning George Steevens), a strange mistake, as the
+poem appeared in print ten years before Steevens was born.
+
+I notice this error for the purpose of asking your readers whether many
+poems by this clever, witty, and mischievous writer exist, although not, to
+use the words of the reviewer, "in a substantive or collective form?" "The
+Frantic Lover," referred to in the _Edinburgh Review_, and considered by
+his biographer as "superior to any similar production in the English
+language," and the verses on Elinor Rummin, are the only two poems of
+George Steevens which now occur to me; but two or three others are noticed
+in Nichols's _Literary Anecdotes_ as his productions.

+
+_By the bye_ (Vol. ii., p. 424.).--As no one of your correspondents has
+answered the Query of J. R. N., as to the etymology and meaning of _by the
+bye_ and _by and by_, I send you the following exposition; which I have
+collected from Richardson's _Dictionary_, and the authorities there
+referred to.
+
+Spelman informs us, that in Norfolk there were in his time thirteen
+villages with names ending in _by:_ this _By_ being a Danish word,
+signifying "villa." That a _bye_-law, Dan. _by-lage_, is a law _peculiar_
+to a villa. And thus we have the general application of _bye_ to any thing;
+peculiar, private, indirect, as distinguished from the direct or main: as,
+_bye-ways_, _bye-talk_, &c. &c. In the trial of Sir Walter Raleigh, _State
+Trials_, James I., 1603, are these words:--
+
+    "You are fools; you are on the _bye_, Raleigh and I are on the _main_.
+    We mean to take away the king and his cubs."
+
+Here the contradistinction is manifest. Lord Bacon and B. Jonson write,
+_on_ the _by_; as if, on the way, in passing, indirectly:--
+
+    "'There is, _upon_ the _by_, to be noted.'--'Those who have seluted
+    poetry _on_ the _by_'--such being a collateral, and not the main object
+    of pursuit."
+
+This I think is clear and satisfactory.
+
+_By and by_ is quite a different matter. Mr. Tyrwhitt, upon the line in
+Chaucer,--
+
+    "These were his words _by and by_."--_R. R._ 4581.
+
+interprets "separately, distinctly;" and there are various other instances
+in Chaucer admitting the same interpretation:--
+
+ "Two yonge knightes ligging, _by and by_."--_Kn. T._, v. 1016.
+
+ "His doughter had a bed all _by_ hireselve,
+  Right in the same chambre _by and by_."--_The Reves T._, v. 4441.
+
+So also in the "Floure and the Leafe," stanzas 9 and 24. The latter I will
+quote, as it is much to the purpose:--
+
+     "The semes (of the surcote) echon,
+  As it were a maner garnishing,
+  Was set with emerauds, _one and one_,
+  _By and by_."
+
+But there are more ancient usages, e.g. in R. Brunne, bearing also the same
+interpretation. "The chartre was read ilk poynt _bi and bi_:" William had
+taken the homage of barons "_bi_ and _bi_." He assayed (_i.e._ tried) "tham
+(the horses) _bi and bi_."
+
+Richardson's conception is, that there is a _subaudition_ in all these
+expressions; and that the meaning is, by point and by point; by baron and
+by baron; by horse and by horse: _one and one_, as Chaucer writes; each
+_one_ separately, by _him_ or _it_-self. And thus, that _by and by_ may be
+explained, _by_ one and _by_ one; distinctly, both in space or time. Our
+modern usage is restricted to _time_, as, "I will do so _by and by_:" where
+_by and by_ is equivalent to _anon_, _i.e._ in one (moment, instant, &c.).
+And so--

+_Clement's Inn_ (Vol. iii., p. 84.).--This inn was neither "a court of law"
+nor "an inn of court," but "an inn of chancery;" according to the
+distinction drawn by Sir John Fortescue, in his _De Laudibus Legum Angliæ_,
+chap. xlix., written between 1460 and 1470.
+
+The evidence of its antiquity is traced back to an earlier date than 1486;
+for, according to Dugdale (_Orig._, p. 187.), in a _Record of Michaelmas_,
+19 _Edward IV_., 1479, it is spoken of as then, and _diu ante_, an Inn
+"hominum Curiæ Legis temporalis, necnon hominum Consiliariorum ejusdem
+Legis."
+
+The early history of the Inns of Court and Chancery is involved in the
+greatest obscurity; and it is difficult to account for the original
+difference between the two denominations.
+
+Any facts which your correspondents may be able to communicate on this
+subject, or in reference to what were the _ten_ Inns of Chancery existing
+in Fortescue's time, but not named by him, or relating to the history of
+either of the Inns, whether of Court or Chancery, will be most gratefully
+received by me, and be of important service at the present time, when I am
+preparing {110} for the press my two next volumes of _The Judges of
+England_.

+_Words are men's daughters_ (Vol. iii., p. 38.).--I take this to be a
+proverbial sentence. In the _Gnomologia_ of Fuller we have "Words are for
+women; actions for men"--but there is a nearer approach to it in a letter
+written by Sir Thomas Bodley to his librarian about the year 1604. He says,
+
+    "Sir John Parker hath promised more than you have signified: but words
+    are women, and deeds are men."
+
+It was no doubt an adoption of the worthy knight, and I shall leave it to

+_Passage in St. Mark_ (Vol. iii., p. 8.).--Irenæus is considered the best
+(if not the only) commentator among the very early Fathers upon those words
+in Mark xiii. 32. "[Greek: oude ho huios?]" and though I cannot refer
+CALMET further than to the author's works, he can trust the general
+accuracy of the following translation:--
+
+    "Our Lord himself," says he, "the Son of God, acknowledged that the
+    Father only knew the day and hour of judgment, declaring expressly,
+    that of that day and hour knoweth no one, neither the Son, but the
+    Father only. Now, if the Son himself was not ashamed to leave the
+    knowledge of that day to the Father, but plainly declared the truth;
+    neither ought we to be ashamed to leave to God such questions as are
+    too high for us. For if any one inquires why the Father, who
+    communicates in all things to the Son, is yet by our Lord declared to
+    know alone that day and hour, he cannot at present find any better, or
+    more decent, or indeed any other safe answer at all, than this, that
+    since our Lord is the only teacher of truth, we should learn of him,
+    that the Father is above all; for the Son saith, 'He is greater than
+    I.' The Father, therefore, is by Our Lord declared to be superior even
+    in knowledge also; to this end, that we, while we continue in this
+    world, may learn to acknowledge God only to have perfect knowledge, and
+    leave such questions to him; and (put a stop to our presumption), lest
+    curiously inquiring into the greatness of the Father, we run at last
+    into so great a danger, as to ask whether even above God there be not
+    another God."

+"_And Coxcombs vanquish Berkeley by a Grin_" (Vol. i., p. 384.).--This line

+
+ "Truth's sacred fort th' exploded laugh shall win,
+  And coxcombs vanquish Berkeley by a grin."

+Dr. Latham seems to have adopted as his literary motto the dictum of the
+poet,
+
+ "The proper study of mankind is man."
+
+We have recently had occasion to call the attention of our readers to his
+learned and interesting volume entitled _The English Language_,--a work
+which affords proof how deeply he has studied that remarkable
+characteristic of our race, which Goldsmith wittily described as being
+"given to man to conceal his thoughts." From the language to _The Natural
+History of the Varieties of Man_, the transition is an easy one. The same
+preliminary studies lead to a mastery of both divisions of this one great
+subject: and having so lately seen how successfully Dr. Latham had pursued
+his researches into the languages of the earth, we were quite prepared to
+find, as we have done, the same learning, acumen, and philosophical spirit
+of investigation leading to the same satisfactory results in this kindred,
+but new field of inquiry. In paying a well-deserved tribute to his
+predecessor, Dr. Prichard, whom he describes as "a physiologist among
+physiologists, and a scholar among scholars,"--and his work as one "which,
+by combining the historical, the philological, and the anatomical methods,
+should command the attention of the naturalist, as well as of the
+scholar,"--Dr. Latham has at once done justice to that distinguished man,
+and expressed very neatly the opinion which will be entertained by the
+great majority of his readers of his own acquirements, and of the merits of
+this his last contribution to our stock of knowledge.
+
+_The Family Almanack and Educational Register for_ 1851, with what its
+editor justly describes as "its noble list of grammar schools," to a great
+extent the "offspring of the English Reformation in the sixteenth {111}
+century," will be a very acceptable book to every parent who belongs to the
+middle classes of society; and who must feel that an endowed school, of
+which the masters are bound to produce testimonials of moral and
+intellectual fitness, presents the best security for the acquirement by his
+sons of a solid, well-grounded education.
+
+Messrs. Sotheby and Wilkinson will sell on Monday next, and three following
+days, the valuable antiquarian, miscellaneous, and historical library of
+the late Mr. Amyot. The collection contains all the best works on English
+history, an important series of the valuable antiquarian publications of
+Tom Hearne; the first, second, and fourth editions of Shakspeare, and an
+extensive collection of Shakspeariana; and, in short, forms an admirably
+selected library of early English history and literature.

+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.

+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate

+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
