P. 7. Whittington, l. 3.
For protouatis read prothouatis. Eleven copies are now known.
Pp. 8–9. Pliny and Lystrius.
Something can be added to the account. The two original books in dispute are in the John Rylands (Spencer) Library at Manchester, and the locus classicus for their history is naturally in Dibdin’s Bibliotheca Spenceriana (1814), ii. 271, iii. 411: where will be found a reproduction (in type) of the two titles and colophons. Of the Pliny Dibdin states that one George Smith passed it on to Van Damme, from whom Askew bought it for fifteen guineas. With respect to the Lystrius, it appears that the “Mr. Dent” who purchased it at the Askew sale was an agent or pseudonym of Mr. Alchorne. The volume bears a manuscript note pretending to be from “i. Korsellis” at Haarlem in 1471, stating that the book came to him from his brother Frederick.
About 1513.
P. 11. Add:—
Syrretus, Antonius. [Antonii Syrreti Formalitates de mente magistri Johannis Duns?] | Scoti ordinis fratrum minorum doctoris sub⸗|tilissimi cum nouis additionibus et con⸗|cordantijs magistri Mauritij de por⸗|tu hybernie in margine decora⸗|te et nouiter impresse: | [two Latin verses, then a woodcut of the Trinity with “Henricus Iacobi” and printer’s mark at foot, then two more Latin verses] | ¶Uenumdantur in vniuersitate Oxoniensi. Sub | intersignio sanctissime Trinitatis ab Hen⸗|rico Jacobi bibliopole Londoniensis. |
This interesting title is found on a fragment of two leaves discovered by Mr. R. G. C. Procter in New College Library at Oxford, in Aug. 1891, and now marked “Auct. V. 16,” fol. 3. The verso of the title is occupied with a woodcut of the arms of Henry VIII, with supporters, two angels with scroll, &c. The second leaf is marked A 2, and contains a dedication and certain definitions, all part of the Additiones Mauritii. The book was no doubt printed in London, but sold in Oxford by Henricus Jacobi, who died in the latter city towards the end of 1514, intestate, see p. 273. From an interesting account of Jacobi in Bibliographica, pt. I (1894), by Mr. E. G. Duff, it appears that Jacobi, after publishing in London from 1505 to 1512, came to Oxford in 1512 or 1513 (see pp. 95, 112 of the account).
This entry and that of 1506 should strictly be in a list by themselves, being neither “lost” nor “fictitious.”
1585.
P. 14. Bilson, Thomas. Add at end:—
A curious account of an abortive effort on the part of Edmund Bollifant and three partners to produce a reprint of this book, will be found in Arber’s Transcript of the Stationers’ Registers II (1875), p. 793.
P. 17. Parsons, Robert, (2nd entry, no. 6). Add at end:—
An explanation of this reprint will be found in Arber’s Transcript of the Stationers’
Registers II (1875), p. 793 (a petition from N. Newton, E. Bollifant, and others, in
the winter of 1585
6), from which it appears that John Wight, printer, of London, who
had entered a copy of his edition of the book at Stationers’ Hall on 28 Aug. 1584, sent
his son to Oxford to buy up the whole of Barnes’s reprint: which was done. But
Barnes promptly printed “two ympressions more,” of which the present volume is no
doubt one. Possibly the preceding art. is the other re-impression, and Wight effectually
suppressed the whole first edition.
1586.
P. 17. Insert:—
Brasbridge, Thomas, of Magdalen college, Oxford. QVÆESTI-|ONES IN OF-|FICIA M. T. | CICERONIS: | Compendiariam totius | Opusculi Epitomen | continentes. | [woodcuts.]
Impr. 5: 1586: (eights) 12o: pp. [68], signn. A-D8 E2: sign. B 1r beg. rum alterum: Pica Roman. Contents:—sign. A 1r, title within a border, A 2r-2v, dedication to Laurence Humphrey, signed “Thomas Brasbrigius,” “Banburiæ, Idibus Nouembris, 1586”: A 3r-E 2 (printed E 3)v, the questions and answers: E 2v, two Latin lines signed “I. P. Iohannensis.”
Very rare. For the author, see Wood’s Ath. Oxon., ed. Bliss, i. 526. The preface contains some autobiographical details. There appear to be at least three editions of this work, 1586, 1592 (q. v.) and 1615 (q. v.), all printed at Oxford.
1589.
P. 28. Skelton, John.
Lord Spencer’s copy is of course now in the John Rylands Library at Manchester.
1591.
P. 31. Tacitus. Add at end:—
On 25 May 1591 a patent was issued to Richard Wright of Oxford and his assigns to print Tacitus’s History in English, during his lifetime (Patent Rolls, 33 Eliz. pt. 17, mentioned in Arber’s Transcript of the Stationers’ Registers II (1875), p. 16). The metal engraving of a Roman Camp reappears in R. Grenewey’s translation of the Annals of Tacitus (Lond. 1598, 1604, 1622).
1592.
P. 32. Barlaamus, last line but one.
For author read editor. Another presentation copy has been seen, also without device.
P. 32. Brasbridge.
See 1586 in this Supplement.
P. 33. Elizabeth.
There is a perfect copy of this rare pamphlet in the great Gloucestershire collections at Chestal, Dursley, in the possession of the Phelps family, kindly pointed out to me by F. A. Hyett, Esq. The title is:—SPEECHES | DELIVERED TO | HER MAIESTIE THIS | LAST PROGRESSE, AT THE | Right Honorable the Lady Rvssels, at | Bissam, the Right Honorable the Lorde | Chandos at Sudley, at the Right | Honorable the Lord Norris, at | Ricorte. | [device.] On the verso of the title is a preface “To the Reader” signed by “I. B.” the printer.
P. 33. Gager (no. 7).
The author of the Bellum Grammaticale was Andreas Guarna.
P. 34. Gager (no. 8). l. 4 (not l. 3).
For 1591 read 1592.
1593.
P. 35. After no. 4 add:—
Oxford, New College. Ex donatione Magistri Fran-|cisci Bettes LL. D: Socij huius Col-|legij. Anno Domini. 1593.
This is a book label, found in Spiegelius’s Lexicon Juris Civilis, 1549 (Oo. xii. 5),
and perhaps in other volumes in New College Library at Oxford. The words are
within a border of woodcuts, the outside measurement of the printed border being
115
16 × 33
16 in.
1594.
P. 36. Beacon.
P. 1 bears “¶j”, and is therefore not wholly blank.
P. 37. Powel (no. 5). Add at end:—
See 1631 P.
1597.
P. 42. Agatharchides.
Professor Bywater has pointed out that the extracts from Agatharchides and Memnon are from an earlier printed edition of them, and not directly from Photius’s Bibliotheca, which was first printed in 1601. Had the matter been taken from a MS. of Photius, the editor would no doubt have claimed the honour, whereas he claims credit only for the new translation into Latin.
P. 42. After Agatharchides add:—
Brett, Richard, of Lincoln College. Theses Mri Bret respondentis in Comitiis. | Oxon. 1597. | [text follows, as below.]
A single sheet, 8½ in. high by 6 broad, printed on both sides, containing three theses. The first is Politia Ecclesiæ Anglicanæ cum iure divino non pugnat, followed by short Latin, Greek, and Hebrew poems. The second is followed by Latin, “Caldaica,” and “Syrica” poems, the last being written in MS. The third is followed by Latin, Arabic, and Æthiopic poems, the last two being filled in in MS. The Hebrew is in Pica type. For Brett, see Wood’s Ath. Oxon. ii. 611: he took the degree of Bachelor of Divinity on 6 June, 1597.
P. 43. After King add:—
Oxford, University. “Qvaestiones sex, totidem praelectionibvs, in schola Theologica, Oxoniae, pro Forma, Habitis, Discvssae, Et Disceptatae Anno 1597.”
So in the Catalogue of W. H. Holyoak, 75 Humberstone Gate, Leicester, “March 1888,” no. 10: the copy was sold on Jan. 3, 1890 to the rev. Shaw Urmstone of Manchester.
1598.
P. 44. After Butler add:—

Tropis & Figuris, | Posterior de Voce & Gestu | Praecipit. | IN VSVM
SCHOLA-|rum accuratiùs editi. | * * * *

Very rare: the only copy at present known is in Corpus Christi Library at Oxford. Even Wood (Ath. Oxon., iii. 210) had not seen this first edition, since he implies that the date is 1600. See 1600 B, 1618 B, 1629 B.

The article Lomazzo has been inserted under 1599 instead of 1598, the proper year.

P. 85. Smyth, Richard. Add at end:—
The third edition was issued in 1634; see 1634 S.
1613.
P. 86. Answer.
This is of course by Richard Parkes, as is noted in the first edition (p. 59; 1604, no. 7). “1604 A” is twice an error for “1604 P.”
P. 89. Colmore, l. 3.

Panke, John. THE FALL OF BABEL. | By the confusion of Tongues, directly proouing against the | Papistes of this, and former ages; that a view of their writings | and Bookes, being taken, it cannot be discerned by any | man liuing, what they would say, or how be vnder-|stood, in the question of the sacrifice of the Masse, | the Reall presence or Transubstantiation; | but in explaning their mindes, they fall | vpon such tearmes, as the Prote-|stants vse and allow. | FVRTHER. | In the question of the Popes Supremacie is shewed, how they | abuse an authoritie of the auncient Father S.

Impr. 29 a: 1613: sm. 4o: the rest as 1608 P.

Stanley, Henry. [device] | APPENDIX | AD LIBROS OMNES TAM | VETERIS QVAM NOVI TESTAMENTI. | HENRICUS [device] STANLEY | OXONIÆ. | M.DC.XXX. |
Impr. as above: 1630: folio: pp. [2 + “529”-“540”]: pp. 529–40 begg. Appendix: Pica (?) Roman. Contents:—p. (1) title: 529–40, tables, see below.
This set of seven leaves is apparently an experiment to be used for indexing sermons or comments under the verse of the Bible to which they refer. They are blank tables in the form “Versus 1 [2, 3, &c. to 18] Vid. L. P. L. ” six times and then “Vid. P. L. ” Eighteen verses are on each page, and references to L(iber) P(agina) L(inea) were intended to be filled in. No Latin Bible of folio size of 1629, ‘30 or ‘31 seems to exist, so probably this was intended to be bound up with some earlier edition. The only copy known is in the British Museum in MS. Harl. 5932, fol. 45 (Bagford’s collections), and no doubt the intended publication was abandoned.
1631.
P. 153. Bible, top line.
The date of imprint (1631) has been accidentally omitted.

P. 209. Oxford—Statuta. Add:—
A copy of the Statuta Selecta has been seen in which opposite p. 20, instead of the Encyclopædia is found an undated folio folded broadside entitled:—SPECULUM | ACADEMICUM: | Quadratura Circuli, | Sive | Cyclus Prælectorum in Schema redactus.... This table gives a note of the day of the week, hour, professor, audience and fines, and bears at the foot “Pag. 20.”, showing that it was intended for (at least some part of) this edition of the Statuta.

P. 223. Saints Legacies. Add at end:—
The first edition of this book is described in 1631 F, so the note of its rarity must be modified.
In Arber’s Transcript of the Stationers’ Registers there is a record that this book
under the title “A Collection of Certaine Promisis out of the Word of God” was
entered by Robert Swayne on 21 June 1629, and that Swayne’s widow (?) Martha
transferred her rights in “the Promises or Saintes legacy” to Richard Royston on
6 Feb. 1631
