Ye Sette of Odd Volumes.
81

By the courtesy of John Evans, Esq., F.R.S., D.C.L., of Nash Mills, Hemel Hempstead, I have been favoured with the following list of Posie Mottoes from rings in his possession. The collection is so unique and of such exceptional interest, that I print it entire, at the risk of repeating some of the mottoes already given. My acknowledgments are also due to Mrs. Evans, to whom I would offer my sincere thanks for preparing this list for me during the absence of Dr. Evans from home; it is through this graceful act on her part that I am enabled to embody it into “Ye Garland of ye Sette of Odd Volumes.”
