NOTES AND QUERIES. 



C2°<i S. N" 80., July 11. '57. 



Frederick the Prince Elector Palatine, and the 

 Lady Elizabeth his wife. 



(2.) 1616. Folio. Fine copy ruled with red 

 lines. Printed by Robert Barker (with Bible of 

 same date). Contains prayers for Queen Anne, 

 Prince Charles, Frederick the Prince Elector 

 Palatine, and the Lady Elizabeth his wife. Also 

 the Psalms, by S. and H., 1612; with Form of 

 Prayer to be used in Private Houses, &c. 



(3.) No title-page. Small 8vo. About 1628. 

 With Greek Test., 1633. Contains the " Godly 

 Prayers.''' 



(4.) No title-page. Folio. About 1629 (with 

 Bible, 1629, printed by Thomas and John Buck ; 

 and Psalms, S. and H., 1629). Contains prayers 

 for " Queen Mary, Frederick the Prince Elector 

 Palatine, and the Lady Elizabeth his wife and 

 their royal issue." 



(5.) 1630. 4to. Printed by Thomas and John 

 Buck. Contains prayers for " Queen Mary, 

 Prince Charles, and the rest of the royal progeny," 

 and the " Godly Prayers'' 



(6.) 1635. Small Svo. Printed by Robert 

 Barker and assignes of John Bill (with Greek 

 Test., 1633). Contains Prayers for "Queen 

 Mary, Prince Charles, and the rest of the royal 

 progenie ; " also the " Godly Prayers." 



Hence it appears that the "Godly Prayers" 

 were published as early as 1630, and probably as 

 early as 1628 ; and they appear to have been dis- 

 continued about 1674. 



Has no complete list been published of the edi- 

 tions of the Prayer Book between 1604 and 1662 ? 



I have also a Prayer Book (folio, with the royal 

 arms stamped on the outside) printed during the 

 reign of Charles IL, and during or after the year 

 1674, which contains three state services, viz. for 

 the 5th November, 30th January, and 29th May, 

 quite different from those annexed to our present 

 Prayer Books ; also two copies of the Prayer 

 Book printed in 1712, with the Service at the 

 Healing. 



I shall be happy to lend any of the above, or to 

 supply any of your correspondents with any fur- 

 ther extracts or particulars. C. J. Elliott. 



Winkfield Vicarage. 



Almshouses recently founded (2""* S. iii. 39.) — 

 Six almshouses for twelve poor widows in Little 

 Bolton, Lancashire : erected in 1839 by Mrs. Linn. 



R. L. 



Susanna Lady Dormer (2"'^ S. iii. 507.) — Su- 

 sanna, daughter and co-heir of Sir Richard Brawne, 

 of AUscott, CO. Gloucester, married John Dormer, 

 of Lee Grange and Purston, co. Bucks, who was 

 created a baronet in 1661. The difference of 

 date between the publication of Welles' volume 

 and the custom of the baronetcy is of no con? 

 sequence ; as it was at that period the custom to 

 make gifts of books, as well as of rings, in memory 



of departed friends. At the end of Woodward's 

 Fair Warnings to a Careless Wo7'ld, there is, if I 

 mistake not, a list of books suitable for that pur- 

 pose. M. L. 

 Lincoln's Inn. 



Old Painting (2"'^ S. iii. 487.) — The subject of 

 this old painting is probably not any legend or 

 vision. The two figures appear to be St. Dominic 

 and St. Catherine of Sienna, and they are receiv- 

 ing rosaries from our Infant Saviour ; as St. 

 Dominic is the acknowledged author of the devo- 

 tion of the Rosary, and St. Catherine of Sienna is 

 the female patroness of his Order. There is a 

 picture by Sasso Ferrato, which represents St. 

 Catherine of Sienna receiving from our Infant 

 Saviour a rosary and a crown of thorns.

Colour (2"^ S. iii. 513.) — No colour can rightly 

 be called peculiar to the B. V. M., because in a 

 paper lately contributed to the Ecclesiologist, by 

 J. C. J., it is stated that out of 209 miniatures of 

 S. Mary, in Missals, Triptychs, &c., 174 are in 

 various colours, and 35 in blue and red : nearly 

 all these being Italian, 23 being in one book as 

 late as a.d. 1525. She occurs in 20 different 

 colours, viz. blue ; blue, green, and red ; blue, 

 ermine, and pink ; blue and red ; blue and gold ; 

 blue and slate ; red ; blue, green, and gold ; blue 

 and brown ; blue and black ; white and blue ; 

 blue and white ; blueish (nearly white) ; blueish 

 and gold ; blue and green ; crimson and blue ; 

 blue and violet ; slate ; gold and red ; black and 

 violet. The colours blue and red are generally 

 appropriated to Our Blessed Lord. Notsa. 



University Hoods (2°-^ S. iii. 308. 356. 435.) — . 

 The following description of the hoods worn in 

 the University of Toronto, — one of the wealthiest 

 universities in the British colonies, — may not be 

 uninteresting in the present discussion of the 

 question. Some of the hoods, it will be seen, are 

 copied from those worn at Oxford. All are of silk, 

 and those of the bachelors of law, medicine, music, 

 and arts, are fringed on the outside edge with 

 white fur : 



B.A., black, fringed with white fur. 



M.A., black, lined with red. 



Mus. B., white, fringed with white fur. 



Mus. D., scarlet, lined with white. 



M.B., blue, fringed with white fur. 



M.D., scarlet, lined with blue. 



LL.B., pink, fringed with white fur. 



LL.D., scarlet, lined with pink.

''Halloo!" (2"'^ S. iii. 510.) — In all cases 

 where " halloo ! " irrespective of dogs and the 

 chase, is simply employed as a shout, must we not 

 connect it with the large family of kindred words
