d the prospect is not hopeless. These glosses, however, were revised by another master of the Apostolic Palace, Sixtus Fabri, and were edited, under the sanction of Pope Gregory XIII., in the year 1580; and from this authentic impression the impious panegyric has not been withdrawn. The marginal abridgment has, in compliance with Manriq's direction, been exterminated; and this additional note has been appended as a palliative:-- "Haec verba sano modo sunt accipienda: prolata enim sunt ad ostendendum amplissimam esse Romani Pontificis potestatem."--Col. 4. ed. Paris, 1585. R.G. _Poeta Anglicus_ (Vol ii., p. 167).--I cannot answer J.B.'s Queries; but I have fallen upon a _cross scent_, which perchance may lead to their discovery. 1. Ioannes Pitseus, _de Scriptor. ad ann._ 1250, (_Relat. Histor. de Rebus Anglicis_, ed. Par. 1619, p. 322.), gives the following account "de Michaele Blaunpaino:"-- "Michael Blaunpainus, vulgo _Magister_ cognominatus, natione Anglus, patria Cornubiensis, ... missus Oxonium, deinde Parisios, ... prae caeteris se dedidit elegantiae linguae Latinae, fuitque inter praecipuos sui temporis _poetus_ per Angliam potissimum et Galliam numeratus. Hunc subinde citat Textor in Cornucopia sub nomine Michaelis _Anglici_.... In lucem emisit: Historiarum Normanniae, librum unum: Contra Henricum Abrincensem versu. librum unum. Archipoeta vide, quod non sit. (_MS. in Bibliotheca Lunleiana._) Epistolarum et carminum, librum unum. Claruit anno Messiae 1250, sub Henrici tertii regno." 2. Valerius Andreas, however, gives a somewhat different account of _Michael Anglicus_. In his _Biblioth. Belg._ ed. 8vo. Lovan, 1623, p. 609., he says: "Michael Anglicus, Bellimontensis, Hanno, I. V. Professor et _Poeta_, scripsit: Eclogarum, libros iv., ad Episc. Parisien. Eclogarum, libb. ii., ad Lud. Villerium. De mutatione studiorum, lib. i. Elegiam deprecatoriam. Et alia, quae Paris. sunt typis edita. Hujus eruditionem et Poemata Bapt. Mantuanus et Joannes Ravisius Testor epigrammate commendarunt: hic etiam in Epithetis suis _Anglici_ auctoritatem non semel adducit." 3. Franciscus Sweertius (_Athenae Belgricoe_, ed. Antv. 1628, p. 565.) gives a similar account to this of Valerius Andreas. 4. And the account given by Christopher Hendreich Brandebargca, (ed. Berolini, 1699, p. 193.) is substantia
