NOTES AND QUERIES. 



519 



Dover, Mr. Croker, the Misses Berry, and the Rev. 

 John Mitford. Mr. Cunningham has come to his task, 

 therefore, under very fortunate circumstances. He has 

 been preceded by men familiar with the events and 

 persons of whom Walpole writes, and one less practised 

 in the duties of an editor, less intimate Avith the literature 

 and history of Walpole's period, than Mr. Cunningham, 

 could scarcely have failed in making a good book ; no 

 ■wonder, then, that with such materials and such resources 

 he has produced the work by which he is destined to be 

 remembered hereafter. 



Among other books suited to the season, under its 

 graver aspect, we may mention two which h:ive iust 

 reached us. The first, by the Warden of Sackville Col- 

 lege, is on a branch of ecclesiastical literature too little 

 known and valued, viz. Mediaeval Preaching. There can 

 be little doubt, therefore, that the volume, which is en- 

 titled Medieeval Preachers and Mediceval Preaching, a 

 Series of Extracts translated from the Sermons of the 

 Middle Ages, chronologically arranged, with Notes and an 

 Introduction, by the Rev. J. M. Neale, will be welcome to 

 a large class of readers. The same may be said of the 

 second, which bears at the close of the historical notice 

 which is prefixed to it the initials "E. B. P." It is a' 

 work of a highly devotional character, and is entitled 

 Meditations and' Prayers to the Holy Trinity and Our 

 Lord Jesus Christ, by S. Anselm, sometime Archbishop of 

 Canterbury. 



The Publishers of "N. & Q." have in the press a new 

 edition of The Complete Works of George Herbert, and 

 would feel obliged by the loan of any annotated copies of 

 his Poems, &c., or separate notes illustrative of obscure 

 passages.
