ACCOUNT OF SKELTON AND HIS WRITINGS.

Page xviii. line 17.

“Ora lepore fluunt, sicuti dives fagus auro.”

For “fagus” read “Tagus.” This obvious error, which unaccountably had escaped my notice, was pointed out in Quart. Rev. lxxiii. 513.

P. xx. The following verses are transcribed from a MS. (in the collection of the late Mr. B. H. Bright) consisting of Hymni, &c. by Picus Mirandula:

Pici Mirandulæ Carmen Extemporale.

Quid tibi facundum nostra in præconia fontem

Solvere collibuit,

Æterna vates, Skelton, dignissime lauro,

Castalidumque decus?
