With engraved titles, maps, woodcuts, and atlas of antiquities. In Swedish and Latin. Vol. I. is of the second issue of 1679. Vol. II. has the forty-four pages of Testimonia. Vol. III. is an original, saved from the fire at Upsala In 1702, and Vol. IV. is a photo-lithograph, with Mr. Klemming's notes. Gibbon described the critics who traced the children of Japhet to their northern hive: "The most entertaining was Olaus Rudbeck. Whatever is celebrated either in history or fable this zealous patriot ascribes to his country. Of that delightful region, for such it appeared to the eyes of a native, the Atlantis of Plato, the country of the Hyperboreans, the garden of the Hesperides, the Fortunate Islands, and even the Elysian Fields, were all but faint and imperfect transcripts."

"Mr. Oliwe-Crantz; J'aurois receu avec Joye les Attlentiques, Si Rubeckius m'en eust dedié Le premier Tome. Mais La pensée de vouloir me dedier le Second n'est pas honeste; quand il auroit dedié le premièr à l'Empereur du monde, Le Second ne doit et ne peut plus S'adresser a moy; Cest pourquoy ditez Luy de ma part, que Je le prie de me reserver pour quelque autre ouvrage qui sera tres bien receu. Je sui fachée que cette pensée ne Luy est pas venue au premièr Tome, Car cet excellent Liure me deuoit appartenir de Justice. Pour L'Epitête de La Pallas Hyperborea il me fait trop d'honneur, mais qu'il se souvienne que Pallas filoit à merveille, et peut estre scavoit elle coudre de meme, et moy Je suis si mal habile que Je ne scoy faire ny l'un ny l'autre ; à cela près Je crois que ne nous resemblons eut estre pas trop mal. Mais treue à la raillerie, etc.-Christina Allessandra."
