And the Great Chiefe that Christ's great tombe did free:
Much wrought he with his wit, much with his hand,
Much in that braue atchieument suffred hee:
In vaine doth hell that Man of God withstand,
In vaine the worlds great princes armed bee;
For heau'n him fauour'd; and he brought againe
Vnder one standard all his scatt'red traine."

Queries.--1. Does the above variation occur in any or many other copies of
the edition of 1600?

MINOR QUERIES.

_Jeremy Taylor's Ductor Dubitantium._--Book I. chap. 2. Rule 8. ยง 14.--

"If he (the judge) see a stone thrown at his brother judge, as happened
at Ludlow, not many years since."

(The first ed. was published in 1660). Does any other contemporary writer
mention this circumstance? or is there any published register of the
assizes of that time?
