No. 2. Iri/h Oghams and contradions found in manufcripts 

 and infcriptions. 



No. 3. An Jrifh Ogham, from the book of Ballymote. I have 

 as yet found no infcription in thefe charaflers. 



No. 4. The Irifh Ogham Croabh, as given by Harris, in his 

 edition of Ware's works. 



PLATE II. No. 5. Gothic and Runic letters from Wormius, and Magnus 

 Celfus on his explanation of the Runic infcriptions at Helfingland 

 in Sweden, which characters are in the greater part derived from 

 the Latin from the third to the tenth centuries. 



No. 6. The Latin letters of the middle ages, that is, from the 

 firft to the eleventh century, taken from Bernard's Tables, and a 

 number of ancient infcriptions difcovered in Britain ; -which cha- 

 raders are evidently derived from the Coptic, Greek and Etrufcan, 

 and ufed indifcriminately by the Chriftian clergy during the above 

 periods. 



These alphabets will, I believe, with care, decypher the oldeft 

 infcriptions found in Great Britain and Ireland, compound letters 

 and contradions excepted.
