In an edition of Latimer's Sermons, small 4to., black letter, judged to be the edition of 1584, the stop in question is not found. The note of interrogation is very curiously formed,—a colon surmounted by a comma, thus [,:] I might also observe that, to one of such limited knowledge as myself, the paging is singular,—only one numeral on each leaf.
In Caroli Sigonii de Republica Hebræorum, libri vij, Hanoviæ, 1608, no semicolon occurs. But in Purchas' Pilgrimage, 1613, all the four stops are used. So also in The Spanish Mandevile of Myracles, 1618.
