form a very prominent feature in any library, public or private. The

This rare volume was exhibited by Sir W. Tite in an Exhibition of
Printed Books at the Society of Antiquaries, and is remarkable for
containing a six-line stanza, supposed to be in Lithgow's autograph,
describing the loss of his place in the Charter-House and imprisonment
for a year. See Sir W. Tite's privately printed Address on the occa-
sion, p. 25.
