« E siccome esser suoie. che Vuonio va cercando argento, e fnori della
intenzione trova oro, lo quale occulta cagione presenta, non forsc sanza divino imperio; io,

j|N the preparation of this Catalogue unusual care has been taken
to transcribe the full titles of the books with scrupulous
accuracy and literal fidelity to the text, and, at the same
time, to point out all serious defects or slight imperfections in the internal
condition of the books, which were discovered in a careful examination of
each volume. That florid style of bibliographical exaggeration, which of
late years, has become rather offensively conspicuous in works of this
kind, has been studiously avoided.
Numerous bibliographical Notes and References have been inserted,
relating chiefly to the history, literary value, or some interesting
peculiarity of the various works under which they appear; and it may also
be stated, that not a single reference in the entire Catalogue is made to
any bibliographical authority, which was not, at the time, directly under
the eye of the compiler.
A large proportion of the books in this Catalogue afford unquestion-
able evidence that the present owner was not merely the collector of a
most curious and valuable library, but that he was a diligent and critical
Vlll NOTE.
reader of the books he collected; and it is presumed their intrinsic value
is, in no small degree, enhanced by the numerous learned and interesting
MS. notes which many of them contain. It is proper to remark, that the
owner's autograph will be found in nearly every volume.
A small number of copies of this Catalogue, comprising over 250
pages, royal 8°, have been sumptuously printed on laid linen paper, with
ornamental Initial Letters, Head-pieces and Titles of rare books, elegantly
printed in colors. These copies have been reserved by the owner, almost
exclusively, for private use. A very few copies only of this special
edition will be offered for sale at $5.00 each volume. The Second Volume
is in press, and when ready for distribution due notice will be given.
Distant buyers and gentlemen who may be unable to attend the Sale,
may have purchases made for them, at the usual rate of commission, by
addressing their orders to Mr. Geo. P. Philes, care of the Auctioneers,

<r In a very good house, not far from the swamp;
Lives a merry old gentleman, funny and frank,
John A**** his name, Vandewater the street,
Seventeen is the number, and there you will meet,
The prince of good fellows. He's buckish and bookish,
Though some of his <igunsx> may be called rather a rookish.D
He's good at a joke, and none loves one better,
So find him out quick, and deliver this letter.
lihe 'j not at home, then give it his daughter,
And a tell her I love her d—I wish I had caught her!
No lady is sweeter, or better or brighter,
But more I won't say for fear I should fright her.
Then presto! away !—fly quick as a whistle,
And deliver to either this funny epistle.d—

*** «The author of the Reports 0/the Courts 0/ Love was Martial de Paris, or d^ Auvergne,
a French lawyer, poet, and wit, who flourished about the middle of the fifteenth century.
Very little is known of his history. The Text of this edition is accompanied with the
Commentaries of Benoit de Court, or Benedictus Curtius, a celebrated jurisconsult of the
sixteenth century. These Notes, which are written in the same spirit as the Text, contain a vast
fund of curious and amusing illustration, chiefly drawn from the classical authors of Rome,
and from the books of the Civil and Canon Law. The Reports commence with a prologue in
verse, which is exceedingly curious. It describes the Courts of Love, at which the author
heard the judgments given which he has reported. A very peculiar account is given of the
various personages who composed the Court, and even their dresses are minutely described;
thus we are told, that the Lady Judges were clothed in green, with collars of gold, and so
richly perfumed that it was impossible to sit near them without sneezing,*—See, Niceron,

%* More than three centuries have elapsed since the imitation of Chrijl by Thomas 2l
Kempis has been confidered as the moft popular Manual of Devotion. Fontenelle and
Leibnitz, indeed, have extolled it as the moft edifying piece of morality since the publication of
the Gospels. On the continent, not only has the original Latin text been tranflated into a diver-
fity of tongues, but a fharp controversy has been inftituted respecting the true author of the
work—whether it was Thomas a Kempis or John Gerson. The more recent, and the better
founded opinion seems to be that Gerson was the author. In the Third Part of this excellent
work, M. Barbier discuffes, with much refearch andlearning, the respective claims of Gerson
and a Kempis to the authorfhip. Whoever the author was he has scrupuloufly adhered to his
own maxim, « Ama Nesciri d—Delight to be unknown.

written on scraps of paper, of all forms and sizes. After his death a large number of these
papers were found among the effects which he left at the Globe Coffee-House, and from those
papers the Anecdotes now published have been selected. Together with these original
Anecdotes, were found, intermixed, a miscellaneous assemblage of Poems, original and
select, Jokes, Charades, Conundrums, Extracts from. Nezuspapers, and, in short, everything
curious or interesting, which arrested Mr. Barker's attention in the course of his daily

in England, by Mr. C. Elliot Brown ; from which we copy the following highly satisfactory
testimonial:
a Mr. Hadrian Beverland lodg'd a whole year in my house at Oxford 1690. He was
always grave and serious also devoutly in his Bookes: When he came home from Scholars he
was merry and witty but never meddled with me nor with any other of my family. Witness

signature a 1 r> (1), comprising folios 65-72, is missing, and the deficiency is filled by a duplicate
sheet of same folios, from the New Testament.~\ Then follows a blank leaf, succeeded by the
New Testament on another series of folios, (/ to 74). The verso of the latter, and the three
succeeding pages, are occupied by Hebraicorum, ChaldcEorum, Grcucorumque nominum
interprctatio; at the end of which we read: a EXCVDEBAT ROBERTO STEPHANO |

leaf is blank.
This edition is described by Le Long as the First which contained the division 0/the text
into verses. But he was mistaken. This peculiarity had already appeared in Pagnini's
Bible, published in 1527; and Stephen's New Testament of 1551 was thus divided. Henry
Stephen says tbat his father (Robert) made the division of the New Testament, during a
journey on horseback from Paris to Lyons.

a The last of the ancients, and one who forms a link between the Classical period ot
literature and that of Middle Ages, in which he was a favourite author, is Boethius, a man of
6ne genius, and interesting both from his character and Jhis death. The Consolation of Philo-
sophy, the chief work of Boethius, was written in his prison. Few books are more striking
from the circumstances of their production. Last of the classic writers, in style not impure,
though displaying too lavishly that poetic exuberance which has distinguished the two or
three preceding centuries, in elevation of sentiment equal to any of the philosophers, and
mingling a Christian sanctity with their lessons, he speaks from his prison in the swan-like
tones of dying eloquence.p—Hallam.
a While Boethius, oppressed with fetters, expected each moment the sentence or the stroke
of death, he composed in the tower of Pavia the Consolation of Philosophy: a golden volume,
not unworthy of the leisure of Plato or Tully, but which claims incomparable merit from
the barbarism of the times and the situation of the author.d—Gibbon, Decline and Fall of the
Roman Empire, ('hap. xxxix.

many Received TENENTS, and commonly Prefumed TRUTHS.
By Thomas Brown (sic) Dr. of Phyfick. The Fifth Edition. With
Marginal Obfervations, and a Table Alphabetical. Whereunto are

***One of the most curious and entertaining works in the whole range of English literature.
The First Book treats « Of the frst Cause of common Errors—Of the second Cause of
popular Errors—Of Authors who have most promoted popular Conceits. The Second
and Third Rooks treat of Minerals, Vegetables, and Animals. The Fourth Book treats of
many popular and received tenents concerning Man. That Man hath only an erect figure, and
that to look up to heaven. Of the Right and Left Hand. Of the custom of saluting or blessing
upon Sneezing. That Jews stink. Of Pigmies. The Fifth Book is devQted to many things
questionable as they are described in Pictures. Of the Picture of the serpent tempting Eve.
Of the Picture of Adam and Eve with Navels. Of the Picture of our Saviour with long Hair.
Of the Picture of Moses with Horns. The Sixth Book is Geographical and Historical. The
Seventh and last Book, treats of many Historical tenents generally received and some deduced
from the History of Holy Scripture. That the forbidden fruit was an Apple. That Man hath
one rib less than a Woman. That there was no Rainbow before the Flood. Of the Wandering
Jew. Of Pope Joan. Of Friar Bacon's Brazen head that spoke, and of some Relations whose
truth we fear.»

*** The name of aJOHN BULTEELd is written on the title-page by some former
owner, as the Author or Editor of this singular Collection of Forms and Songs: many of
which, it is proper to say, are nowise remarkable for refined sentiment or chaste expression.
At the foot of p.ji the following curious Notc is introduced, having no reference, how-
ever, to anything in the text:
a. Having had fo many Crojfes, or, which is truer, feeing the little profit, I refolved to
make no more Verfe, except the argument were Divine ar jforal; and fo refumed my old
deflgne of Paraphrasing the Pfaints; which I began anno, Jan. J/, 1662, and finifiit the J of
June f66j.it
The Poem, under which this Note appears, is signed «S,i> and the author refers to his
various productions, the titles of which are printed on the inside margin of p.jo, as follows:

4 Jerome Cardan was the most remarkable, and at the same time, one of the greatest men
of the 16th Century. More was written and said about him, and he himself wrote more,
than almost any other writer of the age. He was a mathematician, and is celebrated as the
inventor of one of the most important rules in algebra, which goes by his name. He was a
physician, an astronomer, an eminent metaphysician and moral philosopher. He was called a
polypus of science—cut off one head and a score sprung up—refute him in one department, yet
his fame and reputation stood upon the footing of half a dozen others.»— Retrospective

*** Peter, surnamed Comestor, or The Devourer, on account of the vast voracity of his
appetite for reading, was born at Troyes in Champagne. He was Canon and Dean of the
church of St. Peter in that city ; and his reputation for learning and piety was so great, that
he was invited to Paris, and made Chancellor of the University. Near the close of his life he
retired to the monastery of St. Victor, and died there A. D. 1178. His principal work is a

*** This little volume is a handsome reprint of one of the most extraordinary books in the
whole range of bibliography. For more than two hundred years its authorship has been the
subject of much vehement and acrimonious controversy among the learned. It has been
attributed to Boccacio, Poggio, Peter Pomponatius, Machiavel, Erasmus, Ochino, Estienne
Dolet, Servetus, Rabelais, William Postel, Giordano Bruno, Vanini, Thomas Campa-
nella, Muretus and even to Milton. It has always been so excessively rare, that many
authors have denied its existence. The Due de La Valliere possessed a copy which was sold
at his sale for 470 fr. Another copy was in the possession of M. Renouard, and was sold at
his sale, in 1853, tor x4° lr- A C0P>' was also in tbe celeDratecl Crevenna library. These, we
believe, are the only copies of the original Edition known to be extant. It is to this remark-
able book that Sir Thomas Browne alludes in his Reiigio Medici (Lond. 1672, 4,v) sect. 20,
where he speaks of a that Villain and Secretary of Hell, that composed that miscreant piece of
the three Impostors.» It is quite surprising" that Mr. Wilkin and Mr. Gardiner, in their
elaborate Editions of the Religio Medici, should have passed over this singular allusion to a
curious book without a word of comment. The a Three Impostors* were supposed to be
Moses, Christ, and Mahomet.

*+*aLTp to the vear 1520 (the 54th of his life) Erasmus stood before the world,
acknowledged and honoured as the greatest scholar, not only on this side of the Alps, but
fairly competing with or surpassing the greatest in Italy. In his wit and pungent satire he
stood almost alone; he was rivalled only by the inimitable EpistoLr Obscnrorum \~irorum,
and the Julius Exclusus. Of the authorship of both these, indeed, Erasmus, notwithstanding
his reiterated protestations, could hardly escape the honours and the perils. Hut the Praise
of Folly, and the Colloquies, in which the surprised and staggard Monks hardly had discovered,
what they afterwards denounced as impiety, ran like wildfire through Europe. They were in
even' house, every academy, every school, we suspect in almost every cloister. The brst
indignant remonstrances of the Ecclesiastical censure only acted, as in our days, as an adver-
tisement. On the intelligence of their proscription, a bold printer in Paris [Simon de Colines]
is said to have struck off above twenty thousand copies of the Colloquies, thus implying a
demand for which the publishers of Scott, and almost of Macaulav, might hesitate to provide,
in our days of universal reading.»—Dean Milman.

a This book is probably the best specimen we have of the Table-Talk of the 16th century,
collected by a man who spent much of his time upon the road. It was the most popular of
all Henri's books, passing through thirteen editions in his lifetime. Much of the seasoning of
its anecdote was of that gross cast which might have passed unchallenged in Paris, but which
was particularly odious to the discipline established at Geneva. Henri knew perfectly well
that in issuing the book, he was defying authority on the very point on which it was most
susceptible. He was known everywhere as the Pantagruel of Geneva.— Quart. Review,

*** This valuable Catalogue of Portuguese books is divided into Three Parts, each
subdivided into various Chapters, or, as they are termed, Titles. The First Part, after
noticing the works treating of the general History of the Kingdom, mentions the Chronicles,
Histories, and other publications relative to the particular Reigns of its Sovereigns. The
Second Pari, comprises works on the Antiquities, Geography, and Topography of Portugal,
and those concerning AMERICA, Asia, and Africa, and the Biographies of illustrious
Portuguese. The Third and last Part, treats of works on the Church, Clergy, and Military
Orders of Porttigal. Anonymous works are separately given after each of the chapters, under
which their subjects may be classed. Besides an Index of Chapters, there is also an Alphabe-
tical Index of Authors at the end of the volume.

specimens of the Art existed. ONLY 120 COPIES were printed, and that number cannot now
be increased, without an enormous expense, as many of the Plates have been destroyed.*

8° pp. iv-12, marbled taper covers. A GENUINE COPY of the ORIGINAL EDITION
OF THIS AMUSING BIBLIOGRAPHICAL HOAX—OF WHICH 60 COPIES ONLY WERE PRINTED. EX-
CEEDINGLY RARE.
*** In the year 1840, the book-collectors in Europe were greatly excited by the publica-
tion of the Sale Catalogue of the Count J. N. A. De Fortsas. This little volume of only
sixteen pages contained a list of the books which formed the Count's collection, composed of
fifty-two articles, but each of them unique. The Count would keep no book in his collection
if he found it mentioned by any bibliographer. The sale was to take place in the office of a
notary at Binche, an insignificant village of Belgium. It is said that Brunet, Nodier,
Techener, Renouard, and other bibliophiles of Paris, met in the stage, each one having hoped
to steal away unnoticed and have the game all to himself. The Baron de Reiffexberg, then
the Director of the Royal Library of Brussels, asked for an appropriation to purchase some of
these treasures, which was granted. One enthusiastic bookseller made the journey to Binche
from Amsterdam, only to see I\° 75, Corpus Juris Civilis, printed by the Elzevirs on vellum.
The Princess de Ligne, anxious to destroy the record of ber ancestor's achievements, and to
protect the reputation of the grandmothers of the best families of the State, wrote to M. Voisin
to buy N° 48 at any price. <L Achetez, je vous en conjure, a tout prix les sotiiscs de notre
polisson de grand pere.x> The Roxburghe Club was represented; and, singularly enough,
every book in the Catalogue appealed with peculiar force to the taste of some distinguished
collector, and each one was the fortunate possessor of a Catalogue through the Post. The day
before the sale, the newspapers of Brussels contained a notice that the bibliographical world
would learn with regret that the Library ot a. the Count de Fortsas y> would not be sold—that
the town of Binche, having resolved to keep it together in honor of its collector, their towns-
man, had bought it entire, and that henceforth it would form part of Wit Public Library of
Binche.' The force of hoaxing could no farther go. <t The Count de Fortsas \> was a myth:
his chateau, his passion and success in bibliographical pursuits, were apocryphal; the unique
treasures of his collection (notwithstanding the gentlemen who had duplicates) had no other
existence than in this little Catalogue, which has become a great rarity and curiosity in the
field of Bibliography.
The author of this most witty and successful bibliographical joke was M. Renier-Hubert-
Ghislain Chalon, of Mons.
An exact reprint of the Fortsas Catalogue, with a translation of the Notes into English,
will be found in a The Philobiblion,» (New \'ork: Geo. P. Philes. rSoj.) Vol. 11, pp. 7O-S4.

*** William Gardiner, was for many years a bookseller in Pall Mall, London, and was
remarkable for the great eccentricity of his manners and for his misanthropic character.
The various catalogues which he publifhed of his Collection of Scarce and Curious Books
have become very rare and are eagerly sought after by book-buyers, for the numerous
pungent notes in which they abound. Gardiner's literary criticisms were diftinguifhed for
their merciless ferocity. The venerable and ultra facetious Dr. Thomas Frognall Dibdin
having felt the sting of Gardiner's satire, introduced him in his Bibliomania, under the name
of Mustapha. Gardiner retaliated by writing a severe critique on the Bibliomania, which
he publifhed as an Appendix to Part i of his Catalogue for 1812.

*** 4 Among the men who first helped to clear away the rubbish that impeded the progress
of the student, was the learned and modest CONRAD GESNER; at once a scholar, a
philosopher, and a bibliographer; and upon whom Julius Scaliger, Theodore Beza, and De
Thou, have pronounced noble eulogiums. His Bibliotheca Vniuerfalis was the first work,
since the discovery of the art of Printing, which enabled the curious to become acquainted
with the works of preceding authors: thus kindling, by the light of such a lamp, the fire of
emulation among his contemporaries and successors. Consider Gesner as the Father of
Bibliography.b—Dibdin, Bibliomania, p. 30.
4 Conrad Gesner had a very- great pleasure in the study of languages; he not only
understood many, and read the books of many nations, but he studied language for its own
sake, and, as usual, testified the thoroughness of his investigations by the books to which they
led. Already, at the age of twenty-five, he was acquainted intimately with half-a-dozen
tongues, Hebrexv, Greek, Latin, German, Italian, and French, and he had been only three
years settled in Zurich, when he published his first great work, the Bibliotheca Vniuerfalis,
a piece of Bibliography which it is very hard to believe the work of a man only twenty-nine
years old. It is an Alphabetical Catalogue—-wonderfull)'- full—of all Authors famous or
obscure, ancient or modern, with a statement of what they had written, and the argument of
their books, drawn in very many cases from the Prefaces inserted in the books themselves.
This Dictionary was first published in the year 1545.»—Fraser's Magazine, Jan. 1853,
P- 52.
4 O Bibliographorum quicquid est, assurgite huic tarn colcndo nomini! So might the
words from Casaubon's monument well be applied to the restless Gesner. Even to this day
his labor is a rich source, far from being exhausted, and very often much more certain than the
works of later bibliographers. In his twenty-fifth year he began to realize his idea of a
general work of literature, upon a plan the most extensive possible; and three years after-
wards his preparations had already increased so much, that he was enabled to arrange them
for the press. With what earnestness, solidity, and bibliographical accuracy he went to work,
several passages of his Prefaces shew ; and how great notwithstanding his continued struggles
against sickness and bitter necessity was the fruit of his labor.v—Ebert.

*** 1 Regarded merely as a writer of English, there can be little difference of opinion
about the high rank to be assigned to Hobbes. He has been described as our first uniformly
careful and correct writer; and he rnay be admitted to have at least set the first conspicuous
and influential example, in what may be called our existing English, of that regularity of style
which has since his time been generally attended to. No writer has succeeded in making
language a more perfect exponent of thought than it is as employed by Hobbes. In the prime
qualities of precision and perspicuity, and also in economy and succinctness, in force and in
terseness, it is the very perfection of a merely expository style.d—Craik.

*** The PARLY OF BEASTS is an allegorical story, which, it is safe to say, may be
read without profound emotion. It contains, however, a great many curious PROVERBS,
and a number of piquant episodes, which are narrated with a plainness and innocent simplicity
of speech, truly remarkable, considering that the work is dedicated,
To the Great Ornament of her Sex, both
for Choice INTELLECTUALLS, and High
MORALE VERTUES,
The right Honorable, and excellent Lady,
MY LADY MARIE de la FONTAINE.
As an early attempt to reform the Orthography of the English language this volume will
be found exceedingly interesting to students of philology. Preceding the Index is a single
leaf, unnumbered, containing Howell's « ADVERTISEMENT RALAT1NG TO ORTHO-
GRAPH Y.d in which he says, a Strangers used to quarrel with our Language, and throw
away the Book in a chafe sometimes, because our writing and pronunciation are so differing;
For when a stranger meets with treasure, measure, feature, reader, ivealher, people, &C, he
pronounceth tre-asure, me-asure, fe-ature, re-ader, ive-ather, pe-opde. Whereas if we wold
write them as wee pronounce them, viz. Tresure, mcsurc,feture, reder, ivether, peeple, which
gives altogether as full a prolation, strangers wold not find such a difficulty and distast in
learning our Language. It hath bin, and is still the endevor of the Author to reform this,i> etc. etc.
a To the Stories that illustrate Hamlet's shocking design of killing the King at his prayers,
may be added one in Howell's Parly of Beasts, p. qi.t>—Douce, Illustrations of Shakspeare,

a Concerning the miraculous origin and preservation of the Kabbala, the Jews relate
many marvellous tales. They derive these mysteries from Adam; and assert, that whilst the
first man was in Paradise, the angel Rasiel brought him the Book from heaven, which con-
tained the doctrines of heavenly wisdom ; and that when Adam received this Book, angels
came down to him to learn its contents, but that he refused to admit them to the knowledge of
sacred things, entrusted to him alone ; that after the Fall, this Book was taken back into heaven;
that,after many prayers and tears, God restored it to Adam; and that it passed from Adam to
Seth, and has been transmitted to posterity through the hands of Simeon ben Scinch, Elkanah,
A kibha, and Simeon ben Jochai,v;\\o is called by the Jews, The Prince of the Kabbalists.t>

are gratified by tracing the manners of former ages. They contain a mixture of grave admo-

*#* a The character of Reuchlin is one of the most remarkable in that remarkable age; it
exhibits, in the highest perfection, a combination of qualities which are in general found in-
compatible. At once a man of the world and of BooAs, he excelled equally in practice and
speculation; was a Statesman and a Philosopher, a Jurist and a Divine. Nobles, and
Princes, and Emperors, honored him with their favour, and employed him in their most
difficult affairs: while the learned throughout Europe looked up to him as the atrilingue
miraculumj> the apha>nix Htterarum.T) In Italy, native Romans listened with pleasure to his
Latin declamation; and he compelled the jealous Greeks to acknowledge that ^Greece had
overflown the Alps.v Of his countrymen, he was the first to introduce the study of Ancient
Literature into the German Universities; the first who conquered the difficulties of the Greek
language; the frst who opened the gates of the East, unsealed the Word of God, and unveiled
the sanctuary of Hebrew wisdom. Agricola was the only German of the fifteenth century

who approached him in depth of Classical erudition ; and it was not till after the commence-
ment of the sixteenth, that Erasmus rose to divide with him the admiration of the learned.
As an Oriental scholar, Reuchlin died without a rival.»—Sir William Hamilton.

Magnalia was made up, as is generally known to students in New England history, chiefly
from the author s previous productions; to do which, many of these suffered dreadful muti-

*** This rare and verv curioi's work consists of Two Parts, the First is in barbarous
monkish Latin of the Middle Ages, and the Second in the French of the hfteenth century.
The volume comprises the remarkable predictions of a Bemechobius Ef>i$copus ccclesic pater-
nenis et martyr is Christi; the Revelatio de tribnlationibus v.ostrorum temporum; Be Refor-
mation universe Dei ecclesie et de conversione Turcorum et infidel ium ad fid em nostram,
cito et vetociter,j> etc.,'etc. Some of the prophecies are attributed to the celebrated Padre
Girolamo Savonarola, who, it will be remembered, was burned at the stake for the good of
his soul. Among these tracts are a series of prophecies by one Johannes Vatigterro, whose
a macaronic d name may be translated, John u</io predicls War. During the French Revolu-
tion, while the Directory was in power, extracts from this series of prophecies were published
anonymously, with a French translation and explanatory notes. The passages cited were so
remarkably apropos to the times, that the book excited great attention. Crowds flocked to the
public libraries to see the extraordinary volume containing such wonderful predictions. The
Directory, timorous and tyrannical, were afraid of a book which foretold, not only the Revolu-
tion, but the counter-revolution and return of the Monarchy. The librarians were, accordingly,
forbidden to show the volume, and a vigorous search was instituted for the editor and publisher.

*** «The popularity of this work, and its influence on our national poetry, throughout the
reigns of Elizabeth aud James the First, were very considerable. Even in its earliest and
most unfinished state it had attracted the admiration of Sir Philip Sidney, who says, a I
account the Mirrour 0/ Magistrates, meetely furnished of beautiful partes ;» and in its last
and most perfect form, it seems to have been considered as a book necessary to the accomplished
gentleman; for in Chapman's Comedy, entitled, May-Day, and printed in 1611, a charader
versed in the elegant literature of the time, is described as a One that has read Marcus Aure-
lius, Gcsta Romanorum, and the Mirrour for Magisirates.»—See, Drake, Shakspeare and

*#* a No prose writer of the Sixteenth Century has been so generally read, nor, probably,
given so much delight. It is almost impossible to read his Essays without thinking that he
speaks to us ; we see his cheerful brow, his sparkling eye, his negligent, but gentlemanly
demeanour; we picture him in his arm-chair, with his few books round the room, and
Plutarch on the table. His quotations, though they perhaps make more than one-half of his
Essaysy seem parts of himself, and are like limbs of his own mind, which could not be separated
without laceration.»—Hall am.

« Civitas Solis, d the impurity of his imagination, and the unsoundness of his judgment, are
equally conspicuous. He recommends, under certain regulations, a community of women,

BACON'S Nova Atlantis is a romance somewhat after the manner of More's Utopia,
the design being to describe a College fully equipped for the study of Nature on the
Inductive Method—and is important as having suggested, it is said, the formation of the
Royal Society.

*** « A very rare and curious treatise, which is highly and deservedly esteemed; the
Second Edition of it is the best. Although this little but valuable treatise contains many things
which have been better treated by later writers, yet it is well deserving the Bibliographer's
notice, when he can meet with it. Naude offers various considerations on the number, choice
and condition of the books to be deposited in a library,—the place and order in which they
should be arranged,—the ornaments which should be given them, and the chief design of a
Library.»—Horne.

*** a The much-hated Mazarin returned cooly to Paris, for the second time, and by way
of finally crushing a pamphleteering and journalistic committee which had worked for a long
while under Cardinal de Retz's orders, he caused a mighty volume of 700 quarto pages in
his defence to be distributed about Paris, as we now spread tracts. It had been written in
1649, by a certain (!j Gabriel Naude, and is now known as the Mascurat, though its real
title was Ivgement de tovt re qvi a estd imprimd contre le Cardinal Mazarin, &c. In it a
printer [Cam us at] called Mascurat, holds a dialogue with a vendor of Mazarinades (anti-
Mazarin pamphlets), Saint-Ange, [i. e. Naude] and the two pass in review every book
published against the Cardinal, touching as they do on all the topics and people of the day.
The whole thing is in the style of the Satyre Menippde, and is uncommonly brilliant and clever.
Indeed, the late novelist, Charles Nodier, had so high an opinion of the book, that he treated
it as Lord Lytton did Gil Bias, and made a point of re-reading it once at least every year,
alleging that no work gives a better insight into the Manners, Institutions, Politics, and
Language of the times. The fact is, Mascurat is very exhaustive; it leaves no question un-
touched, and the anti-Mazarinists must well have found it a heavy shot to bear up against.
In truth, however, they made no effort to bear up, but collapsed. The laugh was against them,
the wily Italian had conquered by pen as well as by state-craft.&—Cornhill Magazine, /Syj.

*** The initial letters of the first 29 verses of the First Book of this remarkable poem,
form the name of the author, Marcellis Pal.ingemus Stellatus, whose real name, in the
opinion of several learned bibliographers, was Pier Angela Manzoli.
The many sarcasms contained in this poem against the Pope, Cardinals, and Church of
Rome, secured it a conspicuous place among the first class of heretical books in the hidejc
Librorum Proh ibitorum, and the author's body was exhumed and burned to ashes. Pope is
supposed to have made liberal use of this poem in his Essay on Man. See, Nichols, Literary

a Between Leo IV, who died a. d. 855, and Benedict III, a woman, who concealed her
sex, and assumed the name of John, it is said opened her way to the pontifical throne by her
learning and genius, and governed the church for a time. She is commonly called the a Papess
Joanna.d During the five subsequent centuries, the witnesses of this extraordinary event are
without number; nor did any one, prior to the Reformation by Luther, regarded the thing as
either incredible, or disgraceful to the church. But in the 17th century, learned men, not
only among the Roman Catholics, but others also, exerted all the powers of their ingenuity
both to invalidate the testimony on which the truth of the story rests, and to confute it by an
accurate computation of dates.d

*** A remarkably fine copy of the ORIGINAL EDITION of this EXCESSIVELY
RARE WORK, which is composed of the above divers Parts. Each Part has a separate
title-page and pagination, but the imprint is the same in all.
a FRANCIS PATRIZI, or Patricius is another philosopher, even whose name has not
been noticed by the mathematical historians of the Copernican theory. Riccioli has, indeed,
got Peter Ramus in his list. Of Patricius he knows nothing, though he makes one quota-
tion from him.p
a For EIGHTEEN YEARS we have looked, from time to time, that we might discover
this lost Copernican, if possible The work of which we speak is the Nova de Vnivcrsis
Philosophia, Venice: i5Q3. It is often stated that it was published in 1591 ; and it may be
suspeaed that the title-page of 1593 is a new one. THE EXCESSIVE RARITY OF THE
WORK HAS PREVENTED IT FROM BEING CITED IN MODERN TIMES.d-Prof.

*** «M. Gabriel Peignot dtait un de ces drudits modestes, simples et de commerce sur,
toujours disposes a relever le merite des autres et as'effacer. II dtait, en un mot, un des der-
niers descendants de cette grande familJe de Bibliographes des XVIIC et XVIII0 siecles, qui
pourrait bien, selon nous, remonter jusqu'a I'illustre J. A. de Thou et compte parmi ses
membres les plus renomm(5s des hommes tels que Gabriel Naude, le P. M^n^trier, Gabriel
Martin, Jamet, 1'Abb^ Bignon, La Monnoye, Mercier de St. Lkger, N£e de la Rochelle,
De Bure, Van Praet, Charles Nodier et Brunet. Comme tous les hommes laborieux et
chercheurs, M. Peignot lisait tout ce qui lui tombait sous la main: livres de science et d'his-
PETITI. 175
toire, fac^ties, pamphlets curieux, opuscules litt^raires, manuscrits, tout, jusqu'aux brochures
les plus futiles, devenait pour cet esprit patient et investigates, matiere a recherches et a
trouvailles. Du livre en apparence le plus insig-nifiant il trouvait le moyen d'extraire quelques
notes, qu'il mettait a part, coordonnait et comptetait un jour ou l'autre, a l'aide de documents
nouveaux, avec une laborieuse patience, et cela finissait un beau matin par fofmer un ou plu-
sieurs volumes qu'z'/ publiait et presque toujours & un nombre d]exemplaires restreint; ces
tirages & petit nombre expliquent la raretd de ses ouvrages, comme Pintdre't de curiosite" qui
s'attache a presque tous explique, s'il ne Justine pas absolument, le prix croissant qu'ils
atteignent dans nos ventes de livres.»—[P. Deschamps] Notice ?ur Gabriel Peignot,pp. 2-6.

*** a This extraordinary man, whose writings throw considerable light on the history of
the age, and whose Latin style pleases by its unaffected simplicity, was born in the year 1381,
of the noble family of Bracciolini, and having spent his youth in travelling through different
countries ot Europe, settled at length in Rome. He remained in this city as secretary in the
service of eight successive Popes, till he was invited to Florence in the year 1452, being then up-
wards of seventy years of age, to succeed Carlo Marsuppini as secretary to the Republic
Of all his productions his Liber Facetiarum is the most singular. The gross indelicacy of
some of his Tales can only be equalled by the freedom in which he indulges himself respecting
the priesthood. It is difficult to conceive how he escaped in those times the resentment of that
order; but we must remember that this work was produced in the bosom of the Church, and
was probably an amusement for the learned leisure of Prelates and Cardinals.»—Roscoe, Life
of Lorenzo ZV Medici, J>. 4S4.
« His Liber Facetiarum, or Collection 0/ Jocose Tales, is highly interesting on account of
the Anecdotes which it contains of several eminent men, who flourished during the 14th and
15th centuries. In the course of its perusal, we find many an humorous tale, which the
modern jester narrates as the account of circumstances that occurred under his observation,
were of the number of those which caused the walls of the Bugialc to re-echo with laughter.
It is a striking proof of the licentiousness of the times, that an Apostolic Secretary, who en-
joyed the friendship and esteem of the Pontiff, should have published a number of stories
which outrage the laws of decency, and put modesty to the blush.r>
a In the Facet ice, Poggio aimed a most mischievous thrust at his old antagonist Filelfo,
by making him the hero of a tale, the ridiculous oddity of which disturbs the steady counte-
nance of gravity itself, and causes the strictest severity for a moment to smile at the indelicacy
which it condemns.»—See, Rev. Wm. Shepherd, Life 0/ Poggio Bracciolini, pp. 416-23.

Fontaine's Anneau de Hans Carvel, will be found in the Menagiana. Paris: /7/j, Tome 1,

*** a Baptista Porta is chiefly celebrated as the inventor of the Camera Obscura,- the
first announcement of which was made in a celebrated work entitled, Magic? Naturalis. This
book greatly alarmed the papal hierarchy, and was denounced at its first publication as here-
tical; but it contained such a mass of curious and valuable information on all subjects con-
nected with the science of Optics, that it speedily obtained a rapid and almost universal
circulation. It was translated into the Italian, French, Spanish, German, and Arabic lan-
guages; and great multitudes of persons from distant parts of Europe repaired to Naples to
obtain further information respecting the optical illusions which it developed.»—Morell, Hist,

*** a Somewhat later, John Baptist Porta began his investigations. Despite many ab-
surdities, his work was most fruitful. His book on meteorology was the first in which sound
ideas were broached. His researches in optics gave the world the caviera obscura, and,
possibly, the telescope. In chemistry he seems to have been the first to show how to reduce
the metallic oxides, and thus to have laid the foundation of all those industries based upon the
staining and coloring of glass and enamels; and, last of all, he did much to change natural
philosophy from a «Black Art) to a vigorous open science.»—A. D. White, Warfare of

*+* a Laurentius Valla was without doubt the best acquainted with Latin of any man
of his age, yet no pedantic Ciceronian, he had studied all the classical writers of Rome. His
Elegantitz is a work on Grammar; it contains an explanation of refined turns of expression,
especially where they are peculiar to Latin; displaying not only an exa<£t knowledge of that
tongue, but often also a really philosophical study of language in general.t>—Heeren.
a If those have done most for any science who have carried it farthest from the point whence
they set out, Philology seems to owe quite as much to Valla as to any one who has come
since. The Treatise [de Elegant ice] was received with enthusiastic admiration, continually
reprinted, honoured with a paraphrase by Erasmus, commented, abridged, extracted, and even
turned into verse.d—Hallam.

is a deeply philosophical discussion concerning Decency, and is profusely embellished with
gems of classical quotation. The Second Part is devoted to an elaborate and critical research
into the origin of the a Sella fami/iarica,i> or that place of Retirement, a where men of
studious minds,d (as Pope remarks in one of his Letters) a are apt to sit longer than ordinary.d
In the concluding pages of this part, the author displays a vast amount of curious erudition
regarding the origin and shape of the <l Lasanum,t> a certain useful household vessel that
loves seclusion; and to which Lord Bykon gracefully alludes in Don Juan, Canto i, cxliv.

*** This extraordinary work was first published at Genua [ i. e. Madrid] in 1602, and
came out permissu superiorum, and had the express approbation of Pope Clement VIII.
The Censor of the press recorded his cordial approval of the work in the following expressive
words: legi ac perlegi maximd cum voluptate!
The volume is described in Vogt, as « a shameful work, composed with an enormous
curiosity, horrible and odious for its diligent exactness, penetrating into most monstrous,
infamous, and diabolical matters. It is impossible to apprehend how an author could be so
shameless, as to compose such a book, seeing a man that has not quite divested himself of all
modesty, sutlers terribly in reading it.D
a An Iliad of impurities, the treatise of Sanchez is the true library of Venus. If Horace
and Martial were to come again into the world they would write fine odes and epigrams
upon those operators who have been desirous of castrating them. In five hundred Martials
and Horaces there is not so much room for castration as in one page of Sanchez.d—Bavle,
Did. Hist. art. Sanchez.
The case appears to be, that Sanchez, the Confessor, wise and zealous for the salvation of
others, disclosed all the impurities discovered in the tribunal of Confession, that rules might
henceforth be made to meet the worst species presented to the Church. See, Recreative
Review, Vol. ii.

***(iThe Latin writings of Sanazzaro are entitled to particular consideration. They
consist of his Piscatory Eclogues; two books of Elegies; three of Epigrams, and his cele-
brated poem De Partu Virginis. Of these the Eclogues possess the merit of having exhibited
a novel species of composition, in adapting the language of poetry to the characters and occu-
pations of hsbermen. The Elegies are, however, much more highly to be esteemed ; as well
for their innumerable poetical beauties, and the expressive simplicity and elegance ot their
style, as for the many interesting circumstances which they have preserved to us respecting the
times in which he lived. But the work to which Sanazzaro devoted the greatest part of his
time, and on which he chiefly relied for his poetical immortality, was his poem in three books,
De Partu Virginis, which, after the labour of twenty years, and the emendations derived
from the suggestions of his learned friends, was at length brought to a termination.!)—Roscoe,

*#* a It is a proof at least of the talents and courage of Julius Cesar Scaliger that he,
first of all the moderns, undertook to reduce the whole art of verse into a system, illustrating
and confirming every part by a profusion of poetical literature. His Poetics form an octavo
of about 900 pages, closely printed. We can give but a slight sketch of so extensive a work.
In the First Book he treats of the different species of poems; in the Second, of the different
metres; the Third is more miscellaneous, but relates chiefly to figures and turns of phrase;
the Fourth proceeds with the same subject, but these two are very comprehensive. In the
Fifth we come to apply these principles to criticism ; and here we find a comparison of" various
poets one with another, especially of Homer and Virgil. The Sixth Book is a general
criticism on all Latin poets, ancient and modern. The Seventh is a kind of supplement to the
rest, and seems to contain all the miscellaneous matter that he found himself to have omitted,
together with some questions purposely reserved, as he tells us, on account of their difficulty.»

*** This Poem is justly called the Flower of Physic. It was written about the end of the
ninth century, for the use of Robert Duke of Nortnandy, son to William the Conqueror,
who, in his return from the holy war, consulted the physicians of Salerno about a wound he
had received in his arm by a poisoned arrow, which became fistulous. It is written in
Leonine verses, and contains many excellent precepts in monkish poetry, and is the first book
which prescribes rules of health in verse.d—See, Hamilton, Hist, of Medicine, Vol. i, /. 314

* + * «This poem, which is entitled in the oldest Editions, Regimen Sanitatis Salernitanunt,
or Flos Medicines, though written in the name of the whole School of Salerno, is usually
attributed to John of Milan. The earliest commentator was Arnoldus de Villanova, one
of the most celebrated men of the thirteenth century, as a physician, a chemist, an astrologer,
and a divine; but having treated the monks and the mass with too great freedom, the clergy
became his enemies. His tenets were condemned as heretical, and manjr of his works are
inserted in the Index Expurgatorius. Above One Hundred and Sixty Editions of the
Schola Salernitana have been published.p

*■+* a Thomas Tusser, one of the most popular, and, assuredly, one of the most useful of
our elder poets, was born about 1515, and died about 1583. So acceptable did this production
prove to the lovers of poetry and agriculture, that it underwent nineteen editions during its
first century. The mutilated state of the old copies, indeed, exemplifies, more than anything
else, the practical use to which they were subjected ; a Some books, remarks Mr. Haslewood,
became heir-looms from value, and Tusser's work, for useful information in every depart-
ment of agriculture, together with its quaint and amusing observations, perhaps passed the
copies from father to son, till they crumbled away in the bare shifting of the pages, and the
mouldering relic only lost its value, by the casual mutilation of time.D The great merit of
Tusser's book, independent of the utility of agricultural precepts, consists in the faithful
picture which it delineates of the Manners, Customs, and Domestic Life of the English farmer,
and in the morality, piety, and benevolent simplicity which pervade the whole.p—See, Drake,

*** The authorship of this EXCEEDINGLY RARE and interesting volume, is attributed
to Dr. George Wishart, Bishop of Edinburgh, who accompanied Montrose in all his expedi-
tions, and was an Eye and Ear Witness of all he relates. A copy of this identical book was
tied with a cord to the neck of Montrose at the time of his execution; and an English artist
has appropriately commemorated this incident by painting it on a panel in the present House
of Parliament. « The executioner,» says Hume, a brought that Book, which had been
published in elegant Latin, of his great military actions, and tied it by a cord about his neck.p
—Hist, of England, Chap. ix.
< This first Marquis of Montrose was without doubt one of the most extraordinary
characters for bravery, which Scotland ever produced. His execution was murder. He
thought no more of a battle than a school-boy thinks of a game of marbles. War—not in its
ferocious and sanguinary sense—was his delight. His latter moments exalt him to an enviable
martyrdom. He was dressed, on the day of suffering, in the most splendid attire with which
his shrunken wardrobe could furnish him. The History of his achievements was written and
tied around his neck. He was executed on the 21st of May, 1650; and with a barbarity which
marked that vicious period, his limbs were severed and exposed at the gates of the principal
towns in Scotland. Meanwhile, let the reader seize with avidity upon the following Rare
Book, whenever it falls in his way :—De Rebus aufpiciis SereniJJimi 6f PoientiJJimi Caroli,
Regis M. Brit, sub imperio illujlriffimi Jacobi Montisrosarum Marchionis Comitis de Kin-

,/jC 1315 WORLD (The). By Adam Fitz-Adam. [From January 1753
to December 1756, with another N° written by Horace Walpole,
entitled « A World Extraordinary j> with an Index.]
London: Printed for R. and J. Dodsley. 1753-6.
2 vols. f° plain calf. ORIGINAL EDITION.
*** The World, a paper confined to irony and the ridicule of fashionable folly, had
unquestionably much merit. It is throughout gay and sparkling, and reproduced with fresh
grace and lustre the philosophy of Aristippus.
Edward Moore, the conductor, contributed sixty-one papers ; the Earl of Chesterfield,
twenty-four; Richard Owen Cambridge, twenty-one,- Horace Walpole, nine; Soame
Jenyns, five; John Tilson, five; Edward Lovibond, five; and the Earl of Corke, four.

*#* This extraordinary Introduction to the Allan Catalogue, by the late William Gowans,

Allan's discreet executors. Mr. Gowans was greatly offended, and like Pope's angry poet
rushed into print—
aSdeath I'll print it,i>

Mr. Gowans was a man of extremely combustible temper, and eccentric character, but, we
believe his worst enemies never justly accused him of excessive modesty.

*** a This is a very valuable and accurate work, and as honourable to the British nation,
as to the deep critical researches and industry of the original compiler, Mr. Ames, and his
continuator, Mr. Herbert. In the Third volume there are several sheets of corrections and
additions, which should always be referred to in consulting the work.»—Dr. Adam Clarke.
a He who looks into the Typographical Antiquities of Great Britain (as edited by
Herbert), for elegant or interesting digressions relating to the ancient literature of his country,
will, unquestionably, be disappointed in his search. The Editor's aim appears to have been
purely typographical: to give a faithful list of the productions of the press ; without engrafting
thereon any account of the various works of authors, or collecting the opinions of the best
critics upon their merits or demerits. Now and then, some brilliant passages from Warton,
or some curious extracts from Strype and Collier, throw a gleam of amusement over
Eighteen hundred a?id thirty-eight closely printed quarto pages of a Catalogue of books
published in our own country. The Bibliographer, Book-Collector, and Antiquary, will,
however, rarely be disappointed in their expectations; for to this latter class of readers it is
replete with useful and curious information. While Herbert has equalled the industry of
Bacford, and eclipsed the reputation of Ames, he has evinced such diligence, patience, and
minute fidelity, as have scarcely been exhibited by the most distinguished foreign biblio-
graphers; and if he does not display the liveliness of Chevillier, and the taste of Renouard,
he unites in himself all the accuracy of Audiffredi, and perseverance of Panzer. No single
country can boast of such an acquisition to its history of ancient literature as our own, in the
Typographical labours of Herbert.d—Dibdin.

a An excellent edition, the Bibliotheca Vetus being enriched with Notes by Perez Bayer,
a learned Valencian, the Bibliotheca Nova receiving additions from Antonio's own manus-
cripts, that bring down his notices of Spanish writers to the time of his death in 1684. ^a the
earlier portion, embracing the names of about 1,300 authors, little remains to be desired. The
latter portion contains notices of nearly 8,000 writers,—it is a monument of industry, firmness,
and 6delity. The two, taken together, constitute their author, beyond all reasonable question,
the father and founder of the literary history of his country.»—Ticknor, Hist, of Spanish

^365 ARABIAN (The) NIGHTS' ENTERTAINMENTS. A New
7 ^$rr==r^ Translation from the Arabic, with Copious Notes, by Edward
William Lane. Illustrated by many Hundred Engravings on Wood,
from Original Designs by William Harvey. London: Charles
Knight & Co. m.dcccxli.
3 vols. roy. 8° polished calf , extra, gilt backs, ?narbled edges.
***aMR. Lane's Edition is universally known; its illustrations are so exquisite, and so
wildly fanciful, appearing absolutely as the very dreams of the reader's own imagination
spontaneously wrought into shape. But of the Notes that follow and illustrate every chapter,
it is impossible to speak too highly. The learned editor's intimate knowledge of Arabian
manners, feelings, and prejudices; his thorough acquaintance with the language and character
of the natives; the facilities of communication he possessed with the latter during his long
sojourn in Egypt, all combine to render him the fittest, perhaps, of any man living for the
task he has so ably executed: it would seem as if the work and the translator were made
expressly for each other. The felicity with which the oriental style has been preserved
throughout this translation is another of its singular merits; it is always imaginative yet
always simple, so as to impress the reader with the character of the original, but never to
fatigue his patience, nor outrage his better taste; for it has no affectation. Divested of every
indelicacy, these delightful Tales now contain nothing that can deter the purest or the most
fastidious from perusal.r»—Foreign Quarterly Review.

*** a Bayle stands among the masters of the human intellect who taught us to think, and
also to unthink! All, indeed, is a collection of researches and of reasonings: he had the art
of melting down his curious quotations with his own subtile ideas. He collects everything:
1412
BENGER. 275
if truths, they enter into his history; if fictions, into discussions: he places the secret by the
side of the public story; opinion is balanced against opinion: if his arguments grow tedious,
a lucky anecdote or an enlivening tale relieves the folio page; and, knowing the infirmity of
our nature, he picks up trivial things to amuse us, while he is grasping the most abstract and
ponderous. Such were the materials, and such the genius of the man, whose folios, which
seem destined for the retired few, lie open on our parlour tables. The men of genius of his
age studied them for instruction, the men of the world for amusement. Amidst the mass of
facts which he has collected, and the enlarged viewrs of human nature which his philoso-
phical spirit has combined with his researches, Bavle may be called the Shakespeare of
dictionary makers.D—D'Israeli.

*** a L'auteur du Moyen de Parvenir est un des £crivains les plus vifs, les plus vane's, les
plus originaux, les plus piquants de notre vieille langue, un des hommes qui en ont le mieux
connu l'esprit et les ressources, et, par-dessus tout, un conteur inimitable.d—Ch. Nodier.
a Le Moyen de Parvenir, est un vaste recueil de fac^ties, de r^bus et de rencontres licen-
tieuses. Le fond n'en appartient ni a Bkroalde, ni a Rabelais, ni a Pogge. Beroalde a
pourtant le mdrite d'avoir rassemble' tous ces lambeaux orduriers et d'en avoir forme' une
espece de tissu grossier. Dans cette oeuvre, il s'est aid£ des chantres de son eglise, des soldats,
des paysans, et des filles publiques de sa Province.d—Paulin Paris.
Bkroalde, Sieur de Verville, a Canon of the Cathedral of Tours, considered his reputa-
tion as a wit more than as a clergyman, in his Moyen de Parvenir\ published in 1599; a book
extremely curious, from the striking pictures which it offers of the manners and knowledge of
the age. From him, I suspect, Sterne took Mr. Shandy's repartee to Obadiah.—See, Ferriar,

*** « Popular sentiment continues to this day to revere Blind Harry. The poem of The
Wallace, composed in heroic couplets, is about the same length as The Bruce, of which it is
the counterpart. The narrative is often highly vigorous, and the battle-pieces occasionally
stirring; but needs all the exaggeration of patriotism to attribute to the author a the genius
of a second Homer.i> It is the great authority for those incidents connected with the life of
the hero which have been reproduced in the Talcs of a Grandfather and the Scottish Chiefs;
and from the first scene with the fishing-rod to the last on the scaffold, these are narrated with
a vigour that has never been surpassed.!)—Prof. J. Nichol.

*+*«This work of Bibliography contains numerous articles of the ^Demi-ancient'
authors, especially of the Sixteenth Century; principally Italians, who distinguished them-
selves not long after the Revival of Letters; beginning with Petrarch. The writings of
Valerianus, Pontanus, Poggio, Aretino, and others of that class, have given occasion to
moral discussions, which have elicited reflections deeply implicated with the habitual move-
ments of the compiler's mind. These are the chief features ia the First Volume printed at
Naples in 1820. The Second Volume printed at Rome in the Spring of 1821, is principally
occupied with Italian poetry. The Third Volume was printed at Geneva in the Autumn of
1821 and commencement of 1822. This embraces more of French and Genevan literature ; and
contains more pages than the other two volumes together.*
a The Res Literarice, are (as their title imports,) Literary and Critical, with the addition of
Biographical Notices. But they contain registers of Books taken without any order, as they
came to the compiler's hands. This work: is strictly limited to 75 copies.»

to assert and explain principles of poetical taste, which the author conceives to be more just
than those which the prevailing fashion inculcates. For this purpose he has given his own
view of several of the principal English poets, of the last half of the last century.d

*** «The formation of a Chaucer Society, mainly for the purpose of printing the best ex-
isting manuscripts of the poet's works, ought to be a matter of hearty congratulation to all
lovers of English literature. Our public and private libraries are rich in Chaucer manu-
scripts, and the best of these must be available for critical use before an authoritative, complete
and satisfactory text of Chaucer can be produced. But the only way of placing these manu-
scripts within the reach of English scholars is by printing them ; and, if done at all, this must
obviously be the work of a special Society. With this end in view, the Chaucer Society was
accordingly founded, and it is pleasant to find the two great divisions of the Anglo-Saxon
race united in this effort to illustrate the genius and honour the memory of its first great
poet and dramatist.!) See Edinburgh Rev.,]uly, 1870.

*** a This work contains a great deal of curious and valuable information not easily-

same service that Moreri performed for France. Collier, as most people know, was con-
spicuous in history as a nonjuring bishop; and when contemporary History and Biography
passed through the hands of such a man, the method in which he discoursed of them would
of necessity be of more significance than the compilations of the ordinary compiler.!) See

*** 4 It seems unpardonable,!) says Beloe, «to undertake the giving an account of the
writers on the subject of Grammar, without saying something of Donatus, whose tract on
The Eight Parts of Speech has afforded so fertile a source of discussion to Bibliographers.
Popular as this tract was, and useful as probably it was found, it seems a reasonable conject-
ure, that in the infancy of Typography, this might exercise the first labours of the earlier
printers. We know that this was the case with regard to Sweynheym and Pannartz, whose
first production it was, at their press established at the Subiaco Monastery. They inform us
so themselves in their supplicatory address to Pope Sixtus tv. The words have often been
quoted in books of Bibliography, but as I do not remember to have seen this subject intro-
duced in any English work, I may be excused inserting them here. l Donati pro puerulis,
ut indeprincipium dicendisumamus unde imprimendi initium sun1.psi.7nus, nujnero trecc-nti.'1
Of these three hundred copies not a fragment is anywhere to be found; but this can hardly ex-
cite wonder, when it is considered for what use they were intended and applied, and that they
must have been worn, defaced, and destroyed like other elementary books for children.»—
Beloe, Anecdotes of Literature, vol. iv., p. 364.
a It is supposed that the printing of the Eight Parts of Speech, by Donatus, formed the
first typographical effort of the presses of Gutenberg, Coster, and Sweynheym and Pan-
nartz. Fust and Schoeffer also lay claim to a very early impression of this once popular
work. That Sweynheym and Pannartz printed this work, we have their own positive testi-
mony—since it is mentioned the first in order in the list of their works. Vet no copy of this
Donatus has been described by any bibliographer of tbe last or of the preceding century.
Nor has better success attended the search after the Donatus printed by Fust and Schoeffer.d

*** a The Epistolee Obscurorum Virorum first saw the light in 1515-17, eventful years,
when the war between the old and the new filled every university town in Europe with
clamour, and when Luther was gradually warming himself up to the pitch at which he bruke
finally with the Holy See. The immediate cause of their appearance was the persecution of
the celebrated scholar, Reuchlik, by the theologians of Cologne, which disputed with Louvain
the dubious honour of being the headquarters of all that was obsolete, narrow, and obscur-
antist in European thought. Among Reuchlin's many claims to respect, his Hebrew scholar-
ship was one of the chief; and it was on this side that he was attacked by the authorities of
the university, viz: Tungern, dean of the faculty of theology; Hoogstraten, the prior of the
Dominican convent; and Ortuinus Gratius (Ortuin von Graes \ the hero of the Epistola-,
whose name will live in comic literature as long as that of the sausage-seller of Aristothanes,
the Pantilius of Horace, the Og of Dryden, the Sporus of Pope, the Tartuffe of Mouere, or
the Marquis de CaTabas of Bkranger. The tool used by these bigots against the illustrious
Reuchlin was one John Pfefferkorn, of whom Erasmus says, that from a wicked Jew he
had become a most wicked Christian—ex scelerato jfudce sceleratissimum Christianum.
The plan of the satire is simple, but dramatic and effective. There had been recently
published acollection of the letters ofa Illustrious men r> to Reuchlin; and Ortuinus Gratius
is supposed to publish those of his own friends, whom he modestly calls « Obscure men,t> in his
turn. The obscure ones, accordingly, speak for themselves in all the freedom of confidential
communication; and never did such a curious set of marionettes gambol before the world as
those of which Ulrich von Hutten and his colleagues pull the strings. Now it is Mag-is tcr
Bernhardus Plumii.egus writing from ,Leipsic; now it is Maoister Petrus Hafenmusius
writing from NUrenberg; or Magister Hiltbrandus Mammaceus from Tubingen; or Macister
Gerhardus Schirruglius, from Mayence. But a family likeness runs through the whole of
them. A stolid brutal ignorance, enlivened by the most unaffected self-conceit; a bigotry
never modified by a shadow of a doubt; a sl)r, oily sensualism, to which the very hypocrisy
accompanying it seems to lend additional piquancy—these are the common features of the
race. Their Latin is delicious by its homely barbarism; and this is one chief charm of the
Letters to which no translation can do justice.» See Zkller, Ulrich de Hutten, sa Fie, etc.,/. 2S.

*** a Erasmus would have wondered less at the stupidity of the sufferers, and more, per-
haps, at the dexterity of the executioner, could he have foreseen that one of the most learned
scholars of England, and the most learned of her bibliographers, should have actually repub-
lished these Letters as a serious work; and that one of our wittiest satirists should have re-
viewed that publication, without even a suspicion of the lurking Momus. And what is almost
equally astonishing, the misprision has never been remarked. In 1710, there was printed in
London the most elegant edition that has yet appeared of the Epistola? Obscurorum Virorum,
which the editor, Michael Maittaire, gravely represents as the production of their ostensible
authors, and takes credit to himself for rescuing, as he imagines, from oblivion, so curious a
specimen of conceited ignorance, and unconscious absurdity. The edition he dedicates «Isaaco
Bickerslajf, Armigcro, Magnce Britannia; Censori;* and Steele, in a subsequent number of
the Tatler, after acknowledging the compliment, thus notices the book itself: 'The purpose
of the work is signified in the dedication, in very elegant language, and fine raillery. It seems
this is a collection of Letters, which some profound blockheads, who lived before our
times, have written in honour of each other, and for their mutual information in each other's
absurdities! They are mostly of the German nation, whence, from time to time, inundations
of writers have flowed, more pernicious to the learned world than the swarms of Goths and
Vandals to the politic (!!)' The monks are no marvel after this.»—Sir Wm. Hamilton.

« Let me pay a proper tribute of respect to the memory of an eminently learned and
laborious scholar and bibliographer: I mean John Albert Fadricius. His labours shed a
lustre upon the scholastic annals of the 18th century; for he opened, as it were, the gates of
literature to the inquiring student. There are iew instructors to whom we owe so much;
none to whom we are more indebted. Let his works, therefore, have a handsome binding,
and a conspicuous place in your libraries; for happy is that man who has them at hand to
facilitate his inquiries, or to solve his doubts.p—Dibdin.

*** « More extravagant than the writings of Berni, are those of his contemporary Teofilo
Folengo, of Mantua, better known by his assumed name of Merlino Coccajo. He was also
an ecclesiastic, having in the year 1507, when only sixteen years of age, entered into the
order of Benedictines, on which occasion he relinquished his baptismal name of Girolamo, and
took that of Teoflo. His religious vows did not, however, extinguish his amorous passioDS,
and a violent attachment which he soon after formed for a young lady named Girolama
Dieda, induced him to desert his monastery. After passing for several years an irregular and
wandering life, he published his Macaronic Poems, in which, by a singular mixture of the
Latin and Italian with the various dialects of the populace, and by applying the forms of one
language to the phrases of another, he has produced a kind of mongrel tongue, which, from
its singularity and capricious variety, has attracted both admirers and imitators. It must,
however, be remarked that his Macaronics abound with obscene passages; a peculiarity
which seems in these times to have distinguished the productions of the ecclesiastics from
those of the laity .*>—Roscoe.

history and detailed account of M. Fournier's newly invented characters for music. In the
Second Volume, (beside a Preliminary advertisement, giving an account of the principal type-
foundries of Europe) are contained specimens, 1. of the characters, both Roman and Italic,
which are usually employed in printing, with the different degrees of thickness by which they

A MANUSCRIPT ON VELLUM, containing 137 leaves, the last leaf paper; written in
a large bold hand', with many contractions a?id abbreviations; 23 lines to a full pagey with
Ornamental Initial Letters; some leaves water-stained.
* + * This exceedingly curious Manuscript is divided into xv. Chapters, and comprises the
Life of the world-renowned St. Franciscus de Assisio, written by the famous St. Bonaven-
tura, 1 Doctor Seraphicus.v The marvellous visions, revelations, temptations of the flesh,
and the weird miracles wrought by St. Francis, are narrated in this singular production,
apparently with the most implicit faith in their veracity, and with an amplitude of detail, com-
mensurate to their vast importance. A signal example of the fearful temptations which
frequently beset this venerated Saint, during the early years of his conversion, will be found on
folios 23 and 26, beginning with the following extract:
<&ua ppt cca ccmutfomt fue pmottrfa, tpr fygcmalf

pfuarrt—
« The blessed St. Francis, at the beginning of his conversion, would often, in the winter,
throw himself into a ditch full of Ice, that he might get a complete victory over his domestic
enemy, and preserve the white robe of chastity from the conflagration of pleasure. Being one
day strongly pressed by a temptation of the flesh, he pulled off his clothes, and scourged himself
soundly. Then, warmed with an admirable fervency of zeal, he opened his cell; and, coming
out of it, he went into a garden, where, having thrown himself naked into a great heap of
snow, he made of it seven balls, and laying them before him, he thus spoke to his external
man: l the largest of these balls is thy wife; the other four are thy two sons and two daughters;
and the remaining two are thy man and maid servants, which thou must keep. Make haste
then to clothe them, for they are dying with cold.' The Devil, who then tempted St. Fran-
cis, being baulked, immediately left him, and this holy man returned victorious into his cell.*

different from the latter in comprising works in the Literature of every country. For French

number of them were enriched with the Notes of Scaliger, Salmasius, and others. Few col-

critics have been of more essential service to the cause of ancient Classical Literature than
Nicholas Heinsius. Mr. Dyer, of Exeter, the bookseller, has a copy of this Catalogue,

different Ages and Countries; next in order succeed the Origin and Progress of Writing and
Printing, the mechanism of the A rt, with comparative observations on the Typographical ex-
ecution of Early Printed Books. This division is followed by remarks on the Forms of Books
—the different Styles of Bookbinding in various Ages,—the Knowledge of Books, and the Causes
of their relative Value and Scarcity, together with the best Methods of preserving and repair-
ing them. The Principles on which the Classification of a Library should be conducted, are
then explained, and Illustrated by a copious System for its arrangement. The last and most
extensive division of the work is appropriated to a Notice of the Principal Writers who have
treated on the different branches of Bibliography.»—Preface.

Comte H. De La Bedoyere. Paris: L. Potter. 1862.
S° pa per covers. Uncut. Neatly Priced.
De La Bedoykre avait concai d'une facon grandiose le plan de sa bibliotheque.
II se proposait de rt'unir tous les ouvragc-s remarquables, anciens et modernes, surtout les
ceuvres litU'raires et historiques, et n'admettait que les editions les plus estimees, que des ex-
emplaires splendides. Jamais amateur ne se montra plus difficile dans le choix des ouvrages
et des exemplaires. Trouvant rarement des livres dignes d'etre admis dans sa bibliotheque
tels qu'il les avait acquis, il prit le parti de cn'er, pour ainsi dire, chacun de ces livres. II
s'attacha naturellement aux belles editions publiees vers la tin du siecle dernier et a celles qui

*** <rTo ascertain the precise period and the particular nation of Europe, when and among
whom the use of our Common Paper fabricated from Linen Rags first Originated, was a
very earnest object of research with the learned Meerman. Rutin order to accomplish his
immediate object with respect to the history of the Charta Lintea, he proposed a reward of
25 golden ducats, or books to that value, to whoever should discover what on due examination
should appear the most Ancient Manuscript or Public Document inscribed on paper fabricated
from linen rags. These proposals were dispersed through all parts of Europe, and this little
volume contains the answers which Meerman received from different learned correspondents.d

*** « The precise object, of the Polyhisto?-, as the word imports, is to direct, on the most
ample plan, the studies of a single scholar. Several chapters, that seem digressive in an his-
torical light, are to be defended by tbis consideration. In his review of Books in every pro-
vince of literature, Morhuf adopts a sufficiently chronological order; his judgments are short,
but usually judicious; his erudition so copious, that later writers have freely borrowed from
the Polyhistor, and in many parts added little to its enumeration.»—Hai.lam.

8° vellum,with 52 Emblematical Playing Cards. Very Rare and Curious.
*** This singular work is the first known example of using Playing Cards to give instruc-
tion in Logic, a These cards,» says Leber, a made much noise in their time; and this might
well be, for tbey were a novelty which it was easier to admire than to compiehend. At first
people fancied that they saw in them the work of the Devil; and it was even a question
whether the author should not be burnt, seeing that he could be nothing more than a conjurer
with the logicians of that age. But the conjurer's pupils made such extraordinary progress,
that people cried out, l wonderful!' and Murner's book was pronounced divine. Although
those cards are Fifty-two in number they have nothing in common with our pack. They
differ from all other cards, whether for gaming, or of fanciful device, in the multiplicity and
the divisions of the suits, which the inventor has applied to the divisions of logic, after a
method of his own.s Murner was one of Luther's early opponents; and one of the Pamph-
lets which was published during their controversy is entitled: « An Answer to Murner on his
question, k Whether the King ofEngland, or the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther is a Liar ?'»

*** There is good reason to suppose, that Milton threw many additions and corrections
into the Theatrum Poetarum, a book published by his nephew Edward Phillips, in 1675. It
contains criticisms far above the taste of that period: among these is the judgment on
Shakespeare, which was not then, I believe, the general opinion, and which perfectly coin-
cides with the sentiments and words of Milton in VAllegro;
a Or sweetest Shakespeare, fancy's child
Warble his native wood-notes wild.d—Thomas Warton.

*** a The late Mr. Power's Handy-Book About Books, stands to other books in much the
same relation as Notes and Queries does to other papers. It possesses the same sort of out-of-
the-way erudition, the same pleasant aroma of black-letier. It is a book for the bookish, for
book-worms and bibliomaniacs. Mr. Power was, however, something more than a book-
worm or a bibliomaniac. The present work testifies both to his scholarly knowledge and his
artistic taste. Mr. Power has practised what he preached. He was a lover of handsome
bindings. He has therefore enshrined his present work in two covers, one Italian and the
other French, both of the best sixteenth century work. He advocated toned paper for books,
and accordingly his pages are of a soft, delicate cream-colour, which is a great relief to the
eyes. He was an admirer of the so-called l silver letter,'and his book is printed in a type
which may almost equal it for clearness. Lastly, he was always most urgent that every book
should be provided with a good Index, and we accordingly find the best and fullest which we
ev e r m e t. J>— IVest m inste r Review, April, 1873.

*** a This great work is a complete Thesaurus of knowledge, respecting the Aborigines
of America. It embraces their history, ethnography, antiquities, and languages; their ancient
and modern geography ; their manners and customs, religion and superstitions; their agri-
culture, commerce, and trade ; their ornamental arts, and their physical and intellectual pecu-
liarites. All these subjects are treated, not in a general and summary manner, but in detail,
each topic being patiently and thoroughly discussed and exhausted ; the work, although mainly
executed by the author's own hand, having received the contributions of many savans
thoroughly conversant with theparticular subjects embraced in its pages.»

This title is on a frontispiece representing a gate of rustic architecture, at the top of which
are two boy angels 7vith emblems of mortality between them, and underneath are the three
Fates. At the bottom, Adam and Eve with the tree of knowledge, each holding the apple pre-
sented by the serpent. Betxveen them is a circular table, on which are eight skulls of a Pope,
Emperor, Cardinal, &fc, with appropriate mottoes in Latin. On the outer edge of the table,
STATVTVM EST OMNIBVS HOMINIBVS SEMEL MORI POST HOC AVTEM IVDICIVM. In the Centre the
letters MVS, the terminating syllable of each motto. Before the gate are two pedestals, inscribed
MEMENTO MORI, and MEMORARE novissima, on ivhich stand figures of Death supporting two
Pyramids or obelisks, surmounted with skulls and a cross, and inscribed iter ad vitam.

*** a The subject of this volume forms one of those curious riddles of history which, if
not of special interest in themselves, become, nevertheless, important from the associations
and mystery connected with them. Ever since the brilliaut pen of Voltaire gave definite shape
to the strange legend, the story of the Man in the Iron Mask has stirred the fancy or perplexed
the judgment of students of the reign of Louis XIV. ; and few tales in the annals of France are
more dramatic and suggestive of awe than the phantom of this imprisoned victim, withdrawn
from the sight of men by his pitiless gaoler, and, after a life of fearful seclusion, disappearing
finally within the shadow of the Bastille, one of the untold secrets of that terrible prison-
house. Increasing research and knowledge, indeed, have, in the opinion of judicious critics,
put an end to most of the extravagant guesses of the eighteenth century upon this subject
Of late years three views only have been commonly held on this question; and it has been
generally supposed that the Mask was either Mattioli, an Italian agent of the Duke of Man-
tua, of no great note, or else an unknown prisoner of obscure station, or, finally, that the tale
is a myth, and that the existence of the Mask is incapable of proof.D
