I should be glad if any of the readers of your paper could tell me the
meaning of the word _Pandoxare?_ Whatever it was, it took place about
once a month.

[Ducange explains _Pandoxare_ "Cauponum exercere, agere; cerevisiam
venum exponere atque adeo conficere."]

_Lord Bacon's Metrical Version of the Psalms_.--In old Izaak Walton's
_Life of George Herbert_, I find the following passage:--

"He (_i.e._ Lord Bacon) thought him so worthy of his friendship,
that having translated many of the Prophet David's Psalms into
English verse, he made George Herbert his patron by a public
dedication of them to him, as the best judge of divine poetry."

Can any one of your numerous readers inform me if these "Metricals" are
known?--if so it will greatly oblige
