[453] The first edition was published 1659. In Aubrey’s Letters, ii. 125–134 there is an interesting discussion respecting the authorship of the book. It has been ascribed to Lady Packington, to Archbishop Frewen, to Archbishop Sancroft, and to Woodhead, who, after the Restoration, became a Roman Catholic.
