Sir William Temple, Baronet. — Jwvat antiquos accedere Pontes.

The Second Edition. London. 1690. [Not in B. M.]

[This title is copied from Dyce, who remarks, " I have not met with any earlier impression of this Miscellany."

The earliest ed. in the B. M. has a similar title-page, but for *The Second Edition' is substituted 'The Third Edition, Corrected and Augmented by the Author.' The date is 1692. A note printed at the beginning of the book explains that the first two edd. of these Essays were pub- lished " without the author's taking any further notice of them, than giving his consent to a friend who desired it . . . he has been since prevailed with, both to review this third edition, and augment it with several large periods. . . ."

In Arber's Term Catalogues (II. p. 337) there is given the following advertisement which appeared in the Michael- mas Term of 1690 : 'Miscellanea, the Second Part, in Four Essays, i. Upon ancient and modern Learning. 2. Upon the Gardens of Epirus [so in Arber], 3. Upon heroick Virtues [so in Arber]. 4. Upon Poetry. By Sir William Temple, Baronet. Octavo. Printed for Ri., and Ra., Simpson at the Sign of the Harp in St. Paul's Churchyard.'

Possibly this refers to the first ed. The same book- sellers' names are given on the title-page of the third ed.]
