onversant with the works in question, will be very acceptable. I should
wish much to obtain _original editions_ of the leading works, such as
that _On the Person of Christ_; _On the Work of the Spirit_; _On the
Death of Death, in the Death of Christ_. Have any of your correspondents
ever taken the trouble of collating the Greek and Latin quotations with
the authors quoted from, and examined the references made to the Fathers
and other ancient writers? Any communication addressed to the editor of
the works of Owen at Messrs. Johnstone and Hunter, Publishers,
Edinburgh, will be promptly forwarded to me.

MINOR QUERIES.

_MS. Book of Hours._--In the sale catalogue of the library of John
Bridges, of Lincoln's Inn, February, 1725, is entered Lot 4311:--

"Missale quondam Henrici VII., regis Angliae, ut ex ipsius
autographo in codicis initio patet, pulcherrime illuminatum, et
inconibus fere 80 exornatum. In pergameno, et ornatissime
compact."

It appears, from Wanley's _Diary_ (MS. Lansd. 772.), that this volume,
which he calls a _Primer_, was purchased for the Earl of Oxford (for
31l. 10s., as I learn from a priced copy of the catalogue), and was
highly valued. To judge from the above description, it must have been a
very beautiful book; and as it does not seem to be at present among the
Harleian collection of MSS. in the British Museum, I should be glad to
learn into whose hands it has fallen. It is _not_ the celebrated volume
of _Hours_ known under the name of the _Bedford Missal_, since that was
purchased by Lord Harley of Lady Worseley, and is now in the possession
of the Rev. Mr. Tobin;--nor is it the book of _Hours_ in the library of
the Duke of Devonshire (described by Dr. Dibbin in the _Bibl.
Decameron_, vol. i. p. 155.), which contains the autograph notes of
Henry VII.;--nor is it the similar volume formerly in the libraries of
George Wilkinson, of Tottenham Green (sold in 1836), and the Rev. Will.
Maskell, and now MS. Add. 17,012. in the British Museum, in which are
seen the autographs of Henry VII. and his Queen, Henry VIII., Catherine
of Aragon, and others;--nor is it the beautiful volume of _Hours_
executed for Rene d'Anjou, and subsequently presented to Henry VII. by
his chaplain George Strangeways, Archdeacon of Coventry (now in the
British Museum, MS. Eg. 1070.);--nor, lastly, is it the book of _Hours_
in the colle
