The running title of this book is, "Herodian's Imperiall History." The first six books occupy pp. 262, after which another alphabet begins, and a new paging, extending in this imperfect copy, to 104. It is pompously dedicated to "Diva Britannia."

Only the first seven volumes were written and published by M. Rollin. The eighth and ninth were "revised, since the death of the Author, by MR. CREVIER, Professor of Rhetorick in the College of Beauvais," 1743. The rest are intitled, "By Mr. CREVIER, [etc.] being the continuation of Mr. Rollin's work." He has prefixed an Advertisement to the eighth volume, and the "Elogium of Mr. Rollin, by MR. DE BOZE, perpetual Secretary of the Academy of Inscriptions and Belles Lettres; read at the publick Assembly of that Academy, Nov. 14, 1741." The same volume has a portrait ingraved by Vertue: other plates and maps occur throughout the work.

CAPUT III.

HISTORIA BRITANNICA.

HISTORIE BRITANNORUM ANTIQUA OPUSCULA: Londini apud Edmundum Bollifantum, impensis Henrici Denhami, et Radulphi Nuberij. 1585. 80. Sunt autem :

1. "PONTICI VIRUNNII viri doctissimi Britannica Historiæ libri sex, magna et fide et diligentia conscripti.

Ad Britannici codicis fidem correcti, et ab infinitis mendis liberati: quibus præfixus est catalogus Regum Britanniæ: per Davidem Pouelum, S. Theolog. professorem."

Auctor, natione Tarvisinus, floruit an. 1490, et in gratiam Badoeræ familiæ confecit (post alios labores) Galfridi Monemuthensis epitomen decem librorum historiæ fabulosæ totidem libellis. Hæc Vossius docet, non visa hac editione, sed illis quæ August. 1534, et Heidelb. 1542 cum Beda, excusæ fuere. (De Hist. Lat. p. 614.) Alia editio prodiit_an. 1587, cura Hier. Commelini inter Scriptores Rerum Brit. in fol.

Ille qui correctoris officium præstitit huic libro, rogatu Do. Henrici Sydnæi, Walliæ Præsidis, hoc fecit; cui etiam dedicavit "Ruabonæ pridie Calend. Junij. 1585.”

2. "Itinerarium Cambriæ: seu laboriosa Balduini Cantuar. Archiepiscopi per Walliam legationis, accurata descriptio, auctore SIL. GIRALDO Cambrense.

Cum Annotationibus Davidis Poveli sacræ Theologiæ professoris." (P. 47.)

Opus Philippo Sidneo dedicavit Pouelus (Ruabonæ 3 cal. Jun. 1585.) & tribus codicibus correctum, uno ab ejus patre D. Henrico, altero a D. Gul. Cecilio, tertio a Gul. Aubrey, LL. D. accepto. Præmittitur "Vita Giraldi Cambrensis ex ejus Scriptis, Lelando et Baleo collecta," p. 43; et " Admonitio ad Lectorem," de ratione editionis. Notæ copiosa subjiciuntur singulis capitibus.

3. "Cambriæ Descriptio: auctore SIL. GIRALDO Cambrense. Cum,"-etc. (P. 231.)

Duplex præfatio auctoris præmittitur. Plurima verba Britannica recepta a Latinis, subjiciuntur cap. 15, ab editore. Volumen claudit,

4. "De Britannica Historia recte intelligenda, et cum Romanis Scriptoribus reconcilianda, DA. POVELI Epistola, ad ornatissimum virum Gulielmum Fletewoode, ad leges servientem, inclytæ Londinensis Civitatis Recordatorem, conscripta." (P. 278-284.)

Sequuntur Index et Addenda. Tractatus istos breviter recensuit Tannerus in Bibl. Brit. p. 606, sub nostro Powelo; quem ait edidisse Historiam Caradoci Anglice, Lond. 1584.

"Chronicon ex Chronicis, ab initio mundi usque ad annum Domini 1118. deductum, auctore FLORENTIO Wigorniensi monacho.

Accessit etiam continuatio usque ad annum Christi 1141, per quendam ejusdem cœnobii eruditum. Nunquam antehac in lucem editum." Londini, 1592. 4o.

Ille qui oras istius libri passim annotavit, cum Mariano Scoto conferens, aliisque historicis, nomen suum posuit sub titulo "Thoma Milsi, ex dono D: GUL: HOWARDI." Eruditus ille Dominus Howard de Naworth edidit opus e codice proprio, suoque sumptu. Historiæ valde fuit peritus, prout monstrant codices plerique Arundelliani penes Feciales Londinenses, manu ipsius passim notati: quos nuper amplo Catalogo præsens recensuit Scriptor. Chronicon rarum est: exemplar istud plurimi faciendum.
