 PREFACE. 
 
 In the preparation of this Catalogue we have been assisted and advised 
 throughout by Mr. Alfred W. Pollard, of the British Museum, whose skill in 
 such matters is known to all who have seen the Catalogue of the " Rowfant 
 Books " in Mr. Locker-Lampson's library. For the success of the illustrations 
 we have to thank Mr. Prsetorius. We think that the work as a whole needs 
 no "preface of the German cut," or garnish of common-places. The 
 compilers are content to be like the writer known to Montaigne : " L'autheur 
 commettant a divers de ses amis sgavans la recherche de cette-gy et de cette 
 autre matibre, k le bastir; se contentant de sa part d'en avoir projette le 
 dessein, et \\6 par son Industrie ce fagot de provisions incogneues : au moins, 
 est sien I'encre et le papier."

 Province of Aichitecture was assigned to M'. Revett. The Choice of a proper Person for

 There is an allusion in one of Petrarch's letters to Francesco Bruni, which is inte- 
 resting, if we remember that the phrase *' Je fis de Macabre la Danse " was first known about 
 the time of Petrarch's death. The passage in M. Develay's version runs thus : " Les Souasy

 A proof impression still preserved at Basle shows that Hans ZUtzenberger was the 
 original engraver. His monogram also appears on one of the cuts in "Les Simulacres " 
 of 1538. The legend of the "Three living and three dead" has been attributed to the 
 Egyptian ascetic. Saint Macarius. M'. Humphreys discusses the question whether the 
 name '* Macabre " refers to the Saint or to a mediaeval author. There was an English 
 family of '* Machabre," to which the modern Norfolk '* Micawbers " may have belonged.

 Of another the copyist remarks, "hanc scripsit, non dico, sed evomuit J. Donne, optimi 
 patris filius." In another Donne calls Gondibert " a bable " —

 Of windmills, or like to Tom Thumbe, 
 Or like y' pranks of Jack-a-Drum,

 at dinner, Landor said that they spoke a sort of bad Spanish, "such Spanish as a negro 
 would speak." Of Godwin and his school he remarked that they pretended to know 
 nothing and believe nothing, " Lucretius was most absurd. According to him every 
 limb was obtained by the striving of successive generations. The elephant, by pushing 
 and pushing forwards, gradually obtained his trunk. According to this theory we ought 
 now to be struggling for wings and fins. Conceive too the offspring succeeding to the exact 
 quantity of leg or arm obtained by the parent. Poor Lucretius ! " In reference to a story 
 that Virgil on his death-bed wished to destroy the ^Eneid, C. said that he did not believe 
 that Virgil really wished to put the poem in the fire. Landor exclaimed, " He should have 
 put some of the poem into the fire, and some of the fire into the poem."

 Mr. Foster quotes a letter from Landor to Southey, referring to this volume : — 
 
 ** I have been reading for the third time (Sir) Charles Elton's Elegy on the loss of his 
 two sons. It is not an elegy, though the structure of the verse has nothing to do with the 
 matter, but many parts strike me as much as anything I ever read of the elegiac. Tears 
 were in my eyes the first time, the second time, and the third time, on reading —

 Fast by our own, was silent and was still.' "

 These "slanderous and celebrated" books are of great importance in the history of the 
 Reformation. Foxe gives the following account of the presentation of the Supplication of 
 Beggars to Henry VIII. " One Edmund Moddis, the king's footeman, being with the king 
 in talk of religion, & of the newe bookes which were come from beyond the seas, said if it 
 might please his grace to pardon him, & such as he would bring to his grace, he should see 
 such a booke as was marvele to hear of . . . When he saw it, he demanded if any of them 
 could read it. * Yea,' said George Elyot, *if it please your grace to heare it.' ' I thought 
 so,' said the king, * for if need were, thou canst say it without booke.' The whole booke 
 being read out, the king made a long pause, & then sayd, ' if a man should pull dowue an 
 old stone wall, & begin at the lower part, the upper part thereof might chance to fall upon 
 his head.' And then he tooke the booke, & put it into his deske, & commanded them upon 
 their allegiance that they should not tell to any man that hee had seen the booke." —

 every year to draw lots for their portions of the meadow. When the grass is fit to cut, the 
 Grass-stewards and Sixteens summon the tenant's to a general meeting and the following 
 ceremony takes place. Four of the tena'its come forward, each bearing his mark cut on a 
 piece of wood, — as the frying-pan, the hern's foot, &c. The first drawn entitles the owner to 
 have his portion in set i, the second in set 2, and so on."

 ** The painted Briton built his mound, 
 And left his celts and clay, 
 On yon fair slope of sunlit ground 
 
 That fronts your garden gay ; 
 The Roman came, he bore the sway, 
 
 He bullied, bought, and sold. 
 Your fountain sweeps his works away 
 Beside your manor old I 
 
 But still his crumbling urns are found 
 
 Within the window -bay. 
 Where once he listened to the sound 
 
 That lulls you day by day ; 
 
 The sound of summer winds at play. 
 
 The noise of waters cold 
 To Yarty wandering on their way, 
 
 Beside your manor old ! 
 
 The Roman fell : his firm-set bound 
 
 Became the Saxon's stay ; 
 The bells made music all around 
 
 For monks in cloisters grey, 
 Till fled the monks in disarray 
 
 From their warm chantry's fold. 
 Old Abbots slumber as they may, 
 
 Beside your manor old ! 
 
 Envoy. 
 Creeds, empires, peoples, all decay, 
 
 Down into darkness rolled ; 
 May life that's fleet be sweet, I pray, 
 
 Beside your manor old ! "

 The history of the theories concerning the singularly beautiful Gothic type in which 
 this book is printed, is sufficiently curious. In Braun's Notitia the type is ascribed to 
 Christopher Valdarfer of Milan, as being used in an edition of the Confessionale of 
 Bartholomseus de Chaimis, ascribed in the colophon to Valdarfer. The colophon, however, 
 was merely a reprint from the Milan edition of 1474, and occurs in no less than six other 
 editions by different printers. Panzer corrected Braun's error and gave a list of thirty 
 books printed in the type, as the work of an unknown Strasburg printer, possibly George 
 Reyser, who afterwards printed at Wurzburg. In doing this Panzer confused two types, 
 similar in character, but differing by a twentieth in size and also in the ligatures connecting 
 the letters cty st. This confusion was rectified by Klemm, who, by finding the type of this 
 book used in the 1474 edition of the Vita Christi of Ludolphus in conjunction with the type 
 of Eggesteyn's edition of the Consuetudines Feudorum^ was at last able to clear up the whole 
 question. Eggesteyn used this type at least as early as 1469, and used it for two editions of 
 this work, the present, with the title in black, and another with slight differences in setting 
 up, and the title in red.

 Museum. Edited, together with the French Text, Notes, and an Intro- 
 duction, by G. F. Warner. Illustrated with Twenty-Eight Miniatures, 
 reproduced in Facsimile from the Additional MS. 24,189. Printed for the 
 Roxburghe Clubj Lofidon^ 1889. fol. 
 
 ** The present volume has grown to its actual bulk from a small beginning. It 
 originated in a desire on the part of the Roxburghe Club to possess facsimiles of some fine 
 fifteenth-century miniatures illustrating the earlier chapters (and, unfortunately, the earlier 
 chapters only) of Sir John Mandeville's famous work. These miniatures, of which I shall 
 have more to say hereafter, are contained in the Additional MS. 24,189 of the British 
 Museum. They are unaccompanied by any text ; and it was at first intended to issue the 
 plates in like ruanner, or with such extracts only from one or other of the numerous MSS. or 
 printed editions of Mandeville as might serve to elucidate them. Subsequently, however, 
 it was proposed instead to utilise the opportunity to print in full a hitherto unpublished 
 English version of the Travels, differing widely from that commonly known, and, like the 
 latter, preserved in a unique MS. in the Museum. To this suggestion the Club 
 readily agreed, and the carrying it into effect was entrusted to me."— Editor's Intro-

 Thomas More, the Chancellor's descendant, showed that many good men and learned 
 divines were taken in by " this jolly invention of Sir Thomas More " : ** he doth most lively 
 and pleasantly paint forth such an exquisite platform, pattern, and example of a singular 
 good commonwealth, as to the same neither the Lacedaemonians, nor the Athenians, nor yet 
 the best of all other, that of the Romans, is comparable ; full prettily and probably devising 
 the said country to be one of the countries of the new-found lands, declared to him in 
 Antwerp by Hythlodius a Portingal, one of the sea-companions of Americus Vesputius, that 
 first sought out and found those lands."

 this book of Pasquill's was sought after and almost entirely destroyed " ; at least so thought 
 Daniel Heinsius, who being at Venice purchased a copy at a great expense, and in the first

 " Roma meos fratres igni dedit : unica Phoenix 
 Vivo, aureisque veneo centum Heinsio."

 Hyperboreans, the garden of the Hesperides, the Fortunate Islands, and even the Elysian 
 Fields, were all but faint and imperfect transcripts."

 The original issue of the Tatler in 271 numbers. In the last number Steele discloses 
 his name. * * I am now come to the end of my ambition in this matter, and have nothing

 These are "spurious Tatlers," appearing between the end of Steele's work and the 
 beginning of the Tatler as continued under Swift's patronage. Chalmers says that the series 
 lasted through 30 numbers. It was by "Donald Macstaff" (Robert Hepburn), of the 
 North Briton.

 his custom) that he is Isaac Bickerstaff Esq ; this is to give notice That this paper is 
 continued to be sold by John Morphew as formerly, and may easily be distinguished from 
 that Spurious Paper by the Number & Publisher's name he has assumed."

 The continuation of the Tatler, in 52 numbers, was published by William Harrison, a 
 young poet patronised by Swift and St. John. He was assisted in the work by Henley and 
 Congreve. The subject is mentioned in the Journal to Stella for 1710. Swift appears to 
 have helped in writing the first number, containing the letter of '* Aminadab Grunter." He 
 also wrote No. 281, on the subject of Nothing, beginning, " Whether some darkening cloud 
 has cast a veil over my understanding, as the Drop Serene often does the eye ... I know 
 not." He is also believed to have written No. 304, reviewing the 16*'' number of the 
 Spectator, which he had " never before seen or heard of." This paper harps on the subject 
 of insanity, and pretends that Charles Lillie the perfumer, of Beauford Buildings in the 
 Strand, was in a '* manifest phrenzy."

 The first edition. Several of the portraits are taken from the collection of Paolo Giovio. 
 The "Columbus" is the Cogoletto portrait, attributed to the Admiral by mistake. The 
 description is also wrong: "Era il Colombo di carnagion bianca : d' occhi azzurri : e di 
 pelo, e capelli neri." According to Don Ferdinand Columbus he should have said, " Aveva 
 il naso aquilino, e gli occhi bianchi, bianco, e accesso di vivo colore : nella sua gioventu ebbe 
 i capelli biondi." 
 
 Herrera, in M'. Major's version, says : " His nose was aquiline ; his eyes blue ; his 
 complexion clear, and having a tendency to a glowing red ; the beard and hair red in his 
 youth ; but his fatigues early turned them white."

 TRIBUTE, The. The Tribute: a Collection of Miscellaneous Un-

 Loftdon, 1837. Svo. 
 
 This '* fortunate volume," as M'. A. C. Swinburne has called it, contains some of 
 Landor's strongest and most dramatic work," besides the first issue of Tennyson's '* Oh ! 
 that 'twere possible ! " The following extract relates to the poems contributed by Sir 
 C. A. Elton. " Lord Northampton, you remember, was the Chairman at the British 
 Association — a handsome Paganini. Papa searched out in an old New London Magazine 
 an extract from a poem which he entitles * Byron in Greece.' In parts I admire it very 
 much, though some lines may be a little confused : also a translation of Gray's Latin ode on 
 the Monastery of La Chartreuse : and a little poem to myself; and those lines, ' A Thought 
 from La Bruyere.' I don't think you know the lines to me ; they are simple and pretty, 
 quite the opposite to the high-sounding address to Grecian priestesses, haunted groves, 
 Keats and his poem of Titans, Byron fighting and 
 
 ' Fixing on the azure of the skies 
 The last fond glances of his fading eyes.' "

 Attributed to Thomas Tryon, who published a similar work in 1683. 
 
 In the second part is the recipe for making of tea. ** Set on your Boiler with fair 
 water, put into it a few tops of Hysop, let it boil . . . then add a few leaves of sage and a 
 lump of white sugar or sugar-candy : and drawing it off into less pots, put to every pint of 
 the liquor a dram & a half of the herb Tea, & put it before the fire to settle & heat, & infuse 
 well, for if it boil anything after the Tea is in, much of the strength will evaporate."
