"Johannes, D.G. rex Angliae, dominus
Hiberniae, dux Normanniae et Aquitaniae, et comes Andegaviae."
Instead of "Hiberniae" we sometimes find "Iberniae," and sometimes
"Yberniae."

HENRY III. followed the style of his father till October, 1259,
when he adopted the form "D.G. rex Angliae, dominus Hiberniae, et dux
Aquitaniae."

EDWARD I. adopted the latter style. So did Edward II.[TN-137] till
1326, when he used the form "Rex Angliae et dominus Hiberniae."
Edward I.[TN-137] for thirteen years headed his charters with
"Edwardus, Dei gratia rex Angliae, dominus Hiberniae, et dux
Aquitaniae." But after 1337 the form ran thus: "Edwardus, D.G. rex
Angliae et Franciae, dominus Hiberniae, et dux Aquitaniae;" and
sometimes "Franciae" stands before "Angliae."

RICHARD II. began thus: "Richardus, D.G. rex Angliae et Franciae, et
dominus Hiberniae."

HENRY IV. continued the same style. So did HENRY V. till 1420,
after which date he adopted the form, "Henricus, D.G. rex Angliae,
haeres et regens Franciae, et dominus Hiberniae."

HENRY VI. began, "Henricus, D.G. rex Angliae et Franciae, et dominus
Hiberniae."

EDWARD IV., EDWARD V., RICHARD III., HENRY VII. continued the same
style.

From HENRY VIII. (1521) to GEORGE III. (1800) the royal style and
title was "* by the grace of God, of Great Britain, France and
Ireland, king, Defender of the Faith."

From GEORGE III. (1800) to the present day it has been, "* by the
grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland,
king, Defender of the Faith."

=Rubi=, one of the cherubs or spirits of wisdom who was with Eve in
Paradise. He loved Liris, who was young, proud, and most eager for
knowledge. She asked her angel lover to let her see him in his full
glory; so Rubi came to her in his cherubic splendor. Liris, rushing into
his arms, was burnt to ashes; and the kiss she gave him became a brand
upon his forehead, which shot unceasing agony into his brain.--T. Moore,
_Loves of the Angels_, ii. (1822).

=Ru'bicon= (_Napoleon's_), Moscow. The invasion of Moscow was the
beginning of Napoleon's fall.

Thou, Rome, who saw'st thy Caesar's deeds outdone!
Alas! why passed he [_Napoleon_] too the Rubicon ...
Moscow! thou limit of
