DATES OF THE ACCESSION OF THE ENGLISH SOVEREIGNS.

From 1000 A.D. to 1700 A.D., the last _three figures only_ need be
given, and from 1700 A.D. to date only the last two figures require to
be given. It is better for the pupil to find his own phrases. A slight
acquaintance with English History will make all the formulas here given

Dickens' "Child's History of England," Collier's "History of England,"
and "History of England," by the author of the "Knights of St. John,"
may be recommended.
