M. (the Banks copy.) This English version, the earliest known to survive, of a writer whom Warton styles the Gothic Pliny. but who seems to have borrowed much of his material from the Speculum Historiale of Vincent of Beauvais, was executed by John Trevisa, Canon of Westbury in Gloucestershire. His conclu- sion or envoy occurs on 00 iij verso, and states that the translation, made at the request of Thomas Lord Berkeley, was ended the 6th of February, 1398-9, in the 47th year of his lordship'sage. See Hazlitt’s Warton, 1871, ii. 297. Bibliographers have usually ascribed this noble old volume to 1494; but I see no authority for that date. Her- bert thought that Ames might have had some reason for his statement to this effect, because hisown copy wanted the concluding leaf, which might have had a note of the year of printing; but that leaf is in the Museum copy, and does not bear any evi- dence of the kind. Nor do I observe any exact internal clue. } : 3 i ; THOMAS. Elenchus Motuum Nuperorum in Anglia: Or, A short Historical Account of the Rise and Progress of the Late Troubles in England. In Two Parts.
