PREFACE.
The warm approbation accorded to my reprint of Gerard's Catalogus issued last year has encouraged me to bring out a facsimile reprint of a still earlier work, the first publication in this country of a true Botanical cast. The pages of the Libcllus have been reproduced by the Heliotype process, the faithful character of which will be readilv seen on inspection ; even the creases in the paper, and various marks both in pencil and in ink, together with the Museum Stamp and Press-mark, are clearly shown. As this method depends upon the ordinary processes of Photography in the first instance, the various tints of the different portions of the work are to be accounted for by the yellow colour in places of the original, due to i\s age.
Following the facsimile will be found the modern equivalents of Turner's names, so far as I can judge, after making full use of contemporary literature.
The account of the author has been carefully drawn up from various sources, and the copious references will enable any one to verify or fill out my work at a tithe of the trouble it has cost to prepare it. Previous biographies rarely give more than certain statements, without supplying the sources of information.
The List of Authorities will sufficiently explain the various quarters from which I have drawn my materials ; in addition to printed books, I have made use of the Public Records, and the Lansdowne MSS. in the British Museum.
The titles of Turner's works are described from copies in the Bodleian, or the Museum, as noted ; when copies are wanting in both these Libraries, I have inserted the name between inverted commas, and given my authority. This list will be found fuller than any previously published.
It would be easy to enlarge upon the antiquarian interest of this reprint, but that will be admitted without demur. There is one little point to which I must beg attention, and that is, in this small pamphlet we find the first

recorded localities of our native plants. For instance, under Mercurialis, we find a notice of a weed in the grounds of King's Hall, an institution afterwards absorbed in Trinity College, Cambridge.
My thanks are due to many friends for assistance willingly rendered during the preparation of this work. Amongst them I must specially name the officers of the Printed Book and Botanical Departments of the British Museum, the Rev. H. O. Coxe, M.A., Bodleian Librarian ; the Hon. and Rev. Francis R. Grey, M.A., of Morpeth ; Sir Thomas Ersktne May, K.C.B. ; and Prof. C. C. Babington, M.A., of Cambridge, for kind help in their several positions.
The mechanical portions of the reprint have been executed as follows : —

LIFE
OF
WILLIAM TURNER.
IN the following Memoir of the Father of English Botany, I shall not confine myself solely to a consideration of his botanical work, but by exhibiting his many-sided character in its varied relations, endeavour to convey a truer idea of the man, than any partial account could do, which was taken from only one standpoint, either of Botanist or Reforming Divine.
William Turner was born at Morpeth," in Northumberland, early in the sixteenth century ; the registers of that town commence in 1582, so that precise information is wanting, but we may fairly assume that he first saw the light between 1510-15, judging from the dates of his college life. He is believed to have been the son of a tanner, to whom, in 15 15, one William Bewick conveyed " 22 roods of land lying in the Milnhaugh."2
Of his early education we know nothing, but his studies were continued at Pembroke Hall, Cambridge, under the patronage of Thomas, Lord Wentworth.3 We find him B.A. in 1529-30, 4 Fellow of his College, 153 1;5 Junior Treasurer of his College, 1532; commenced M.A., 1533;' obtained the College Title for Holy Orders, 20th March, 1536-37, 7 and was Senior Treasurer in 153s.8 He held his Fellowship when he issued his earliest botanical production, here reproduced in fac-simile, but for how long after we are unable to say; he may have retained it until his marriage with Jane, daughter of George Ander, Alderman of Cambridge.'
Small as the little work here mentioned is, it must be borne in mind that Turner had no instructor in his study beyond the classical writers. Witness his own words, written in 156S : — ■
" For I am able to proue by good witnesses that I haue aboue thyrtye yeares ago, written an Herbal in Latin, wherein were conteyned the Greke, Latin, and Englishe of so many herbes and trees as I could get anye knowledge of, euen being yet felow of Penbroke hall in Cambridge, wher as I could learne neuer one Greke, nether Latin, nor English name, euen amongest the Phisieions of anye herbe or tre, suche was the ignorance in simples at that tyme, and as yet there was no Fnglishe Herbal but one, al full of vnlearned cacographees and falselye naming of herbes, and as then had nether Fuchsius nether Matthiolus nether Tragus written of herbes in Latin."10 Elstwhere he alludes to some of the writers to whom he was indebted, " My maters of whome I learned first ye knowledge of herbes, who were Antonius Musa, Fuchsius, and Ruellius.""
During his stay at Cambridge, he lived in close intimacy with Nicholas Ridley, afterwards Bishop of London, to whom he owed his first instruction in Greek, and with whom he often practised archery and tennis; Ridley also supplied Turner with sums to give in charity, when the poverty of the latter would have prevented his alms-giving.'2 Hugh Latimer (Ridley's companion

at the stake) was also one of Turner's friends and instructors,'3 some of whom formed the little company at Cambridge, which met to confer, and discuss the reformed doctrines at the White Horse, nicknamed Germany.1* Here, embracing the tenets of the Reformers, he threw himself heart and soul into the controversy, on behalf of the views for which he so steadfastly contended all his life. He then travelled through a good part of England preaching,
"... whi!e he was a young man, . . . not only in towns and villages, but also in cities. In his rambles he settled for a time in Oxon, among several of his countrymen that he found there, purposely for the conversation of men and books, ... At the same time and after, following his old trade of preaching without a call, he was imprison'd and kept in close durance for a considerable time. At length, being let loose, and banished he travelled into Italy, . . ."'5
It has been suggested that this imprisonment resulted from a refusal to subscribe to the Statute of the Six Articles,'6 and that he recanted to save his life.'7 For my own part I do not believe that Turner would have done so ; he was made of sterner stuff, and his whole life and writings are a standing contradiction to any such supposition.
Be this as it may, it is certain that Turner passed a considerable time in Italy, studying Botany under Luca Ghini, at Bologna,'8 and Medicine in various places. He took the degree of Doctor of Medicine either at Ferrara,'' or, possibly, at Bologna." Besides these two, he names these places in Italy as visited by him, Cremona,5' Como," Milan,53 Venice,-4 Chiavenna.25 Retracing his steps through Switzerland, he visited Conrad Gesner, at Zurich,36 and a warm friendship thenceforward subsisted between the two.
He then took up his residence at Basel," in 1543, and the year following at Cologne.*5 From these places he launched his small religious books, which were eagerly read by his countrymen,2' so much so that in the last year of the reign of Henry VIII. his works were prohibited,3" as disseminating doctrines repugnant to His Majesty's views. Whilst abroad he received a college benevolence of 26s. 8d. in 1542, 3' and, in common with others, was assisted by money sent to them by Ridley.32
He collected plants at the following places in Germany, Andernach,33 Bonn,34 Basel,3S Bingen,3* Cologne,37 " Erenffelde,"33 and Siegburg.35
It was most likely after this that he travelled into Holland and East Friesland. which places we find mentioned several times. Turner was physician to " the Erie of Emden,"40 and whilst so he took the opportunity to explore several of the islands lying off the mainland. " I sayled to an Hand, called Juste, . . . and after that I sayled to another Hand, called Nordeni."4' He visited Aurich,42 Louvain/3 and Peter Coudenberg at Antwerp,44 and also sent " Gratiola " from Brabant to " maister Riche and maister Morgan, Apotecaries of London."45 These names occur in Lobel's works, and Gerard's Herball.

Turner's works were prohibited in 1547, by a proclamation of Henry VIII. / issued during the last year of that despotic ruler. Shortly after the accession of Edward VI., the subject of our notice came home, perhaps, in his homeward journey, passing- by Dunkerque" or Calais.'8 He finished a Herbal in Latin by 1546, but deferred the issue of it, by advice, until he had travel!, d in the western parts of England.4' His second botanical work was published in 154S, "The names of herbes," etc., whilst he was waiting for preferment in the church; in the meantime acting as physician to the Protector,5" Earl of Somerset, whose gardens he mentions,5' and also his own garden at Kew." Whilst here he conversed in Latin with the Princess Elizabeth.53 From a passage in his Spiritual Physik it has been thought that he sat in the House of Commons during this reign, which view is partially sustained by the character of the Hunter in Turner's Romysh Vuolfe,5* who has been a member of the Lower House for five years, this personage seeming to represent the author himself. It is probable that both passages refer to the Lower House of Convocation, for in 1553 Dr. Nowel, returned for Looe, was ejected from the Commons on the ground of his having a seat in Convocation as Prebendary of Westminster.55
He wrote, in September [1548 ?] , to Cecil, "In medijs meis cruciatibus & humanaomniconsolatione destitutum," thanking him for his promised preferment, but hoped that it would be distant from the court.56 At a later date he says :
" Master Cicell i thank vow for your paynes tayken about ye obteyning of my lycence, which if I had sealed, I wold shortly occupi in york shyre, for y" archbishop of york hathe writte unto me to cu to hym w' all ye spede y' may be, whiche thynge i wold gladly do, if i had theyr to my lordis gracis cosent, who as (i heard you say) intended y* i shuld go to Winchester, to be occupied theyre. If y' i might haue a lyvying for me and myne there i wold gladly do as my lordis grace requireth, but y* an other man shuld haue ye de-ry & do nothy-g, & i sh-ld be bound to be a workma sola spe vC-tura, nescio q-iido, praebeda, alCdus, ye loue yl i bear unto my wyfe & childer will not suffer me. My chylder haue bene fed so long w' hope that they ar uery leane, i wold fayne haue the fatter, if it were possible. I pray yow know of my lordis grace what is hys gracis pleasure in thys mater i ca not dwell here all thys next cumy[n]g wynter. Syr i hear say y' ye haue certayn howses to let in Londo, if y' they be not all p'mysed i pray yow let mistres auder my mother in law, whom i thy[n]k ye know haue o Tne] of the for as myche as ye would take of an other she intendeth to dwell by hyr chylder in londo, i trust y' ye shall be promptly payed it y1 she pr< miseth you.

The Prebend of Botevant, in York, referred to in this letter, was given to Turner, 12th Feb., 1S49-30, and he held it for little more than two years.56 "On 3rd July, 1550, the Privy Council sent letters for his election as Provost of Oriel College, Oxford, but that headship appears to have been filled up by the election of Joseph Smyth, B.D., 17th June preceding, being the very day on which his predecessor. William Haynes, resigned. On 27th September following, Dr. Turner wrote a

letter to Sir William Cecil, praying- that he might be appointed President of Magdalen College,59 Oxford, but on the last day of that month Dr. Walter Haddon was elected President in that College in compliance with letters from the Court. Dr. Turner also applied for an archdeaconry which he did not obtain."40
He became despondent at not getting' the preferment he desired, as the following- letter to Cecil will show : —
"... when christes churche nedeth me it will lawfully call me w' out any of my laborying". In the mean tyme if y' I had my helth i were able to get my lyvying w' my service not only in England, but also in holland, brabant, and in many places of germany, although sum thynk it wold not be in england as yet, till i were better knowen. Wherefore if my foolishe importunite, hath not vtterly quenched out all ye favor that ye haue sumtyme borne towarde me, i pray you heartily seying that i can not haue my helth here in england, & am euery day more and more uexed w' the stone, help me to abteyne me lycence of the Kyngis mai> sti and the counsell, y' i may go into germany & cary ij litle horsis w1 me, to dwell there for atyme, whereas i may w' small coste drynk only rhenishe wyne, & so thereby be delyuered of ye stone, as i was y" last tyme y1 i dwelt in germany if that i myght haue my pore prebende cumyng to me yearly i will for it correct ye hold newe testament in englishe, and wryt a booke of ye causis of my correctio & changing of the translatio. I will also finishe my great herball & my bookes of fishes stones & metalles, if good sende me lyfe and helthe.
" your friende to hys pour Wilyam turner."6'
Very shortly after this letter was written, John Goodman was deprived of the Deanery of Wells, after two years' residence, and Turner was thereto appointed.61' He experienced much opposition and difficulty in getting possession of the deanery house, as the following extracts testify : —
" . . . I am dene here in wellt's but i can nether get house nor one foot of land : . . . where i shuld haue a dosen closes and medowes for my horses i can not get one ; for Goodman whiche was of late dene here, the craftiest fox y' euer went vpon ij fete, let off vnto hys cosin Fullwell all ye hole sub-chantorship in one lease : . . . As for these thynges i care not so mych for, as i do for the howse.

As for ye dispensatio i set not so mych by it, as 1 do by a resting' place for me and my pore chylder."6'
There is another letter extant, about the same date as the above, in the Public Record Office, but it does not throw additional light upon the matter.64 Later on he complains of being
"... pened up in a chamber of my lorde of bathes w' all my ho[ouse]holde seruantes and Children as shepe in a pyndfolde. . . . i can not go to my booke for ye crying of

Besides the Prebend and Deanery, it is asserted in most accounts of Turner that he held a Canonry of Windsor. This is a mistake arising- from the fact of Richard Turner, the actual occupant, being like the subject of our notice, an ardent Protestant, and also exiled during the reign of Mary.
About this time he was incorporated M.D. at Oxford, but the records being defective about that period, we cannot discover the exact date.64 The first portion of his Herbal was brought out in i 55 i, and I quote a portion of his preface: —
" . . . There haue bene in England, and there are now also certain learned men : whych haue as much knowledge in herbes, yea, and more then diuerse Italianes and Germanes, whyche haue set furth in prynte Herballes and bokes of simples. I mean of Doctor Clement, Doctor Wendy, and Doctor Owen, Doctor Wotton, & Maister Falconer. Yet hath none of al these, set furth any thyng, ether to the generall profit of hole Christendome in latin, & to the honor of thys rtalme, nether in Englyshe to the proper profit of their naturall countre, . . . And so is there noman, that hath bene hyther to so good vnto hys countre as to aduenture or take the paynes to set out any herball. I therfore darker in name, and farr vnder these men in know- ledge, for the loue that I beare vnto my countre, and at the commandemOt of your grace my lord and maister, I haue set one part of a great herball more boldly then wysely and with more ieopardy of my name then with profite to my purse, as I knowe by dyuerse other bokes. whych I haue set out before this time, both in English and in Latin. I haue in this boke taught the latine name, the greke, the englysh name, y° duche, and the frenche name, most commuly of every herbe that I write of. I declare also the vertues of euery herbe, & shew the place where I haue sene it, lest it shuld seme to be one of them which wryte of thynges, whyche they neuer saw. I dowt not but many both physicyons of the mean sorte, many surgiones and potecaries, and many of the common people, that will wysely and warely vse herbts with the counsel of the phisycyan, shall take very great profit and commodyte. For the which they are muche bounde to thanke your grace : who fyrst set me in hand with this present labor. . . . I had nede to haue some noble and excellent patrone, & defendour, for my boke could, rehersyng many in my mynde, fynd out none so mete to be a defendour of thys worke as your grace is.

He had been at Purbeck in July of that year; from his mentioning' many of the plants he found in that locality. Dr. Pulteney67 has drawn the somewhat slenderly supported conclusion that he had relatives in that neighbourhood.
Whilst he was acting as chaplain to the Lord Protector, " it happened that in a lecture of his delivered at Thistleworth [Isleworth] near to London, he did therein inveigh much against the poyson of Pelagius, which had then infected the people very much in all parts of the nation. This lecture of his being answered in print by one who was his auditor, he straightway came out with a reply entit. A Preservative, or Triacle against the poyson of Pelagius, . . ."M It is stated that this. auditor was Robert Cooch, or Cook, Serjeant of the Winecellar to Edward VI., and alterwards one of the Gentlemen of Queen Elizabeth's Chapel.69 Turner was not ordained priest until December 2 i st, 1552, when his old friend Ridley, Bishop of London, officiated.70 Six months later, the young' King died, and Mary succeeded to the throne; the violent persecutions which then ensued caused many of the most prominent of the reforming party to quit the country or remain to encounter almost certain death. Amongst these fugitives was Turner," and he remained abroad during the whole of Mary's reign, whilst the deprived John Goodman was reinstated in the Deanery of Wells. Turner again took up his abode in Germany, visiting, possibly not for the first time, these places amongst others ; Bonn/' Chur," Frankfort,74 Freiburg,15 " Lauterburg " [? Lauenburg],7* Mantz,77 Rodekirche,73 " Sourland " [? Straeland],7' Strasburg,8" " Soundes,"8' Speyer,83 Worms,83 Weissen- burg,84 "werdone" [? Werden].85 At Weissenberg' he remained some time, and from it, in 1557. he dated his letter to Gesner, noticed in the list of Turner's works. He afterwards removed to Cologne, where, either then or previously, he had a garden,84 as he formerly had at Wells,87 and !rom this place, in 1562. he issued the second part of his Herbal.
His works, for the second time, were prohibited by Philip and Mary, June 13th, 1555, and the Wardens of every Company were ordered to give full information of any copies known by them to be existing, in order to be destroyed.83 The rarity of Turner's little treatises need not be wondered at, seeing that thus they twice came under the ban of the reigning powers.
He returned to England at the accession of Elizabeth in 1 55 S, preached at St. Paul's to a very large congregation, September 10th, 1559, ^ and was reinstated in his Deanery on 20th January, 1 5 59-60, ?i the Queen by two grants confirming to Turner the Prebend and Rectory of Wedmore, which had been restored to the Deanery by Mary." There also appertained to this post, " the Manor of Winsham, with the Rectory thereof; the Rectory of Chard; the Manor of Comb St. Nicholas, with the Rectory of the same; the Rectory of Wellington and Buckland; . . . There belongs also to the Deanery, the Rectory of Wedmore, by virtue of the Queen's patent, bearing- date the Mh of May, 5th Elizabeth, 1563, granted to William Turner, then Dean."" In this year the net revenue accruing to the holder of the Deanery amounted to £15 1 6s. Sd.93

reinstate him, and endeavoured by underhand means to overthrow Turner. The Queen, therefore, ordered " the Lord Keeper, by her letters, to call both parties before him, and to direct a commission in her name, as he was accustomed to do upon appeals, to such indifferent persons as he should think fit, or as they both should accord upon : and in the mean season to take order, that Dr. Turner might remain in quiet possession : and so he did to his death ; . . ."*'
He was absent from the Lower House of Convocation in February, 1562-3, and therefore did not vote on certain articles relative to the mode of Divine service.95 His intense dislike to sacerdotal garments may be learned from the letter which follows, and from the tales related of him, that he trained a dog to snatch the square cap from a bishop's head,94 and caused a convicted adulterer to do his open penance in a priest's cap.97
" it may please yo' honor to be advertised, that I am much encombred wth mr Doctor Titrntr Deane of Welles, for his vndiscrete behavior in the pulpitt : where he medleth wth all matters, and vnsemelie speaketh of all estates, more then ys standinge withe discressyon : I haue advertised him by wrytynges, and haue admonished secretly by his owne frendes : notwith- standing, he persisteth still in his follie : he conteneth vtterly all Bishopps, and calleth the white coats, iyppett gentleme, with other wordes of reproche [mu]che more vnsemelie and asketh, who gaue them Autoritie, more ouer me, then I otter them : eyther to forbidd me preachinge, or to depryve me : Unless they haue yt from their holy father the pope.

'• Yor honors dailie Orator
"Gilb Bathe & Welles."'8
The writer, Gilbert Berkeley, was consecrated 24th January, 1559-60.99
In March, 1564, Turner was suspended for nonconformity, with thirty of the clergy, who resolutely
declined to adopt the prescribed garments."" Being thus precluded from clerical duties, he seems to
have left Wells and taken up his abode in London. The second part of his Herbal had been printed
at Cologne, in 1562 ; he now completed that work, in spite of increasing debility. The last letter of
his extant, being addressed to his staunch patron, Lord Burleigh, the body of the letter is written
by an amanuensis, confirmatory of the weakness to which the subject of our notice had been reduced.
"... may it please your honor to be advertised, that whereas by your helpe and
mr Doctor Gordonnis, I obteyned a dispensation & licence, and also autoritie of the queens
maiestie by letters patentes to receyve my hole diuidentes and cotidianes of the Church Welles,
being absent here for my helthes sake ; " (he goes on to say that the resident has twice refusi d
to pay the revenue to Turner, but has come to London to petition that the grant to Turner
be annulled, as a plurality. The latter begs that no countenance be shown to his suit.)

The indomitable character of the man may be seen in his works, both controversial and practical; his merits as the first botanical author in this country are remarkable, and well merit the praise passed on him by John Ray, " vir solidte eruditionis & judicii; """ the wide difference between even the slightest productions of Turner, when compared with such effusions as the Grete Herbal, is visible at first glance.
His will is too characteristic to be omitted here, and runs thus :
" In the name of almightye grid amen, in the yeare from the birthe of our savyour Jhesus christ a thousande fyve hundred threescore and sixe, I William Turner calling to remembrance partelye being moved thereto by often and almost contynnuall sycknes this longe tyme that my father and mother are departed and also all my brethren and systers and the moste parte of all my scholefellowes and the fellowes of my colledge in Cambridge are departed from theyr bodyes which are nowe in there graves thowg-ht it best seying by so many experiences and also by the holie word of god I knowe that I must folowe my father and mother my brethren and all my felowes that haue gone before me to make my last Wyll that all thynges may be sett in suche Order that when 1 shall haue nede to make me redye for my departinge, I shall not be troubled with makinge of my Testament at that tyme, Wherefore firste I bequeathe my sowle vnto almyghtie god Who made it and by the deathe of his sonne Jhesus Christe saved it ard lente hit me all my lyfe tyme, and I giue my bodye accordinge vnto the ordinance and appoyntement of allmyghtie god to the earthe that it may suffer corruptione in the graue and there be turned into the yearthe from whence it came, but in that truste and hope that at

" William Turner,
" doctor of physicke."
This will was proved 15th July, 1568, the executors' names being Jane, the widow, and the children
Winifred, Peter, and Elizabeth Turner. The son, Peter, had some knowledge of plants, for in a copy of the Herbal, in the Linnean
Society's Library, there is a long list of errata, apologised for, by the printer not being familiar
with English, as will be seen by the address to the reader.
" Errata. '• Faultes escaped in the printing." 4 pages. " Peter Turner to the Reader. " As the wyse philosopher Seneca, counteth him to slay or kill, that may well saue and will not : so may I rightly iudge after the same fashion, that he is a great hindrer and hurter that may profite a man and will not. Seeing then that this my fathers Herball, which he after his long trauell, study and experience hath made, is now set forth to profit and pleasure his countriemen withall : and by the ouersight partly of the Printer, and partly of the Scribe that copied the booke out for the Printer, is now so commed forth that the Reader can not get any profite or commoditie thereof : least that I for the cause aboue rehersed bee counted a hinderer of the profite of my Countriemen, and not to set by my Fathers fame and estimation (for I am sure, many that know not that afore his death he went about to correct this booke, will blame him for letting so falsly a printed booke to come forthj I haue taken
some paynes, and haue pervsed and red ouer this booke as my Father beganne, and haue conferred it with his owne hande copie, and haue so corrected it and amended it, that a diligent and a welwilling reader may easily vnderstand the meaning of the writer, and so take great profit of the same. But peraduenture some will saye, if I had minded to pleasure my Countriemen, I might haue done better if I had called in or stayed this print, and caused the booke to haue bene printed here anew again. In dede if I had done so, I shouldc haue eased the reader of this labour of correcting. But I should haue done against Charitie to haue caused the Printer by that meanes to lose all his labor and cost which he hath bestowed in printing hereof. Wherefore gentle Reader beare a little with the Printer that neuer was much accustomed to the printing of Englishe, and afore thou reade ouer this booke, correct it as I haue appointed and then the profite thereof will abundantly recompense thy paynes. And last of all, take these my paynes also in good worth at this time. Another daye when the Herball shall be printed againe (and if it please God to lend me lyfe and health, augmented and increased) I trust the reader shalbe put to no such paines in correcting of the same, as in no other of my fathers bookes as yet vnprinted which hereafter as time and occasion shall serue, I entende to set forth. In the meane time vse this Herball in stede of a better, and giue all laude and prayse vnto the Lorde."
Peter, the grandson, was Gresham Professor of Geometry.105
Turner's widow subsequently married Richard Cox, at a later period, Bishop of Ely, and founded a Scholarship at Cambridge in memory of her first husband.'06
I have already mentioned the mistakes made, owing to the similarity of name between Richard Turner and William Turner ; I need now only quote two erroneous statements to guard against their being credited. Cuvier, after most favourable notice of Turner's observations on fishes, goes on to say . . " il mourut a Cologne, en 156S."'07 Fuller believed that he died in Germany during Mary's reign.108 The uncertainty as to some of the titles of the smaller productions will be understood by inspection of the list of 'Turner's works, which is as complete as I have been able to render it.

" There were many other editions of this work, and a translation into English, printed abroad
in Queen Mary's time by one Dr. Turner, with a most vindictive preface before it; as also
some additions, with intent to expose the Bishops inconstancy, who had now submitted again
to the Pope."
Biog. Brit. iii. 2124.
The translation here mentioned bears the following title: —
De vera obedientia. An oration made in Latine, by the right ReuerCde father in God Stepha
bishop of Winchestre, now Lorde chancelour of Englande. .
Printed at Haburgh in Latine. . . . 1536.

Brit. Mus.
This is a translation of Brunschweig's Thesaurus Pauperum. Hausapoteck . Franckfurt, 1537, and is frequently found bound up with Turner's Herbal, pt. ii. It has been suggested that Turner here assumed another alias, so as to secure readers for his work by evading the embargo placed upon his writings. There was, however, an actual John Hollybush, who was charged by < loverdale with the task of seeing the Latin and English Testament through the Press, during Coverdale's absence abroad ; he was also the translator of at least two doctrinal treatises. Cf. Brook's Puritans, i., 120; Ames, iii., 1449; Foxe, ed. Towns., viii., 786.
