NOTES AND QUERIES. 
[No. 14. 
sin, 8vo. Col. Agr. 1631. There were other editions, nexed to a neat edition of Pomponius Mela, printed 
I believe, in the same century. ‘The former work 
treats of Egyptian symbols; the titles of the 
twelve books of the latter are: —I. Mundus et 
Elementa. II. DiiGentium. III, Hominis Bona. 
IV. Hominis Mala. V. Ritus Gentium. VI. 
Aves. VII. Quadrupedes. VIII. Pisces. IX. 
Serpentes et Insecta.

Fraternitye of Vagabondes. —It does not appear | 
very clearly from the wording of the query at 
p. 184. of your 12th number, whether the object 
of your correspondent, “A. Grirrinnoor, JUN.,” 
be to ascertain the fact of the reprint in question 
having been published by Stace, or (having as- 
certained that fact) to procure further infor- 
mation as to the publisher. I cannot find any 
allusion to the work in the Censura Literaria, 
(2nd ed. 1815), another instance of the absolute 
necessity for exact references, the want of which 
you would do well in making a ground of ex- 
clusion from your columns. However, on the 
chance of being useful I send you an exact copy 
of the rubricated title-page of the reprint, which 
is as follows : — 
“The Fraternitye of Vacabondes; As wel of ruf- 
lyng Vacabondes, as of beggerly, of Women as of 
Men, of Gyrles as of Boyes, With Their proper Names 
and Qualities. 
Company of Cousoners and Shifters, Whereunto also 
is adioined The X XV Orders of Knaues, Otherwyse 
called A Quartern of Knaues. Confirmed for euer 
by Cocke Lorell. — {The Vprightman speaketh. 
{ Our Brotherhood of Vacabondes, 
If you would know where dwell ; 
In grauesend Barge which syldome standes, 
« The talke wyll shew ryght well. 
§ Cocke Lorell answereth. 
§| Some orders of iny knaues also 
In that Barge shall ye fynde: | 
for no where shall ye walke I trow, 
But ye shall see their kynde. 
q Imprinted at London by John Awdely, dwellyng 
in little Britayne Streete without Aldersgate. 1575. 
Westminster: Reprinted for Machell Stace, No. 12, 
Little Queen-Street, and R. Triphook, St. James’s 
Street. 1813.” 
Those who are curious about Mr. Stace may 
consult Boaden on the Shakespeare Portraits, 
p- 141, Wivell on do., p. 189, and Chalcographi- 
mania, p. 16. 82. 95. J.¥F.M. 
Anonymous Ravennas.— In answer to the query 
of “ W.C.,” in No. 8., p. 124., I beg to state that 
Gronovius published the Cosmography of Raven- 
nas, with other ancient scraps of geography, an- 
X. Plante. XI. Lapilli. |

at Leyden, in 1696. Gronovius refers the anony- 
mous author to the seventh century. His Choro- 
graphy of Britain forms a part of the work; but 
it is printed from one MS., and wretchedly ob-

Dick Shore. — Your correspondent, J.T. Ham- 
mack, is not quite correct in stating, No. 9., p 141., 
that the modern maps present no trace of the 
locality of “Dick Shoare,” mentioned in the Pepys- 
ian Diary. In one of Smith’s maps, now before me, 
of the date of 1806, I find “Duke Shore Stairs,” not 
far from the great turn of the river southward, op- 
| posite to the Isle of Dogs. Whether the proper spel- 
ling be Dick, Dyke, Dock, Dog, or Duke, I leave 
to your readers to determine ; but I presume there 
can be no doubt as to the identity of the place. As 
the’origin of thename of “Isle of Doges,” according 
to the Pepysian orthography, is said to be still 
undetermined, may it not be connected with the 
modern term Docks? We are daily familiarised 
to worse corruptions. Docks are excavations, 
large or small, formed by the operation of digging, 
in Dutch called Déken. J. 1. 
[ Dick’s Snore, Fore Street, Limehouse, and Dick’s 
Snort Attey, by Dick's Shore, are both mentioned in 
London and its Environs, vol. ii. p. 233. ] 
Travelling in England. — Mr. Stevens’ quota- 
tion (No. 11. p. 167.) of Bernard Calvert’s rapid 
written in the early part of the reign of George I, 
is to be found in more detail in Stow (1032.), 
and is transcribed in Mr: Croker’s Notes on Bas- 
sompiere’s Embassy, 1819. G. 
Sanuto. — The Ragguagli sulla Vitae sulle Opere 
di Maria Sanuto, referred to in No. 5. p. 75., were 
edited by Mr. Rawdon Browne, an English gentle- 
man long resident at Venice, and a most accom- 
plished Italian scholar. The Diary of Sanuto 
could hardly be printed, filling, as it does, some 
twenty or thirty thick large folio volumes. R. M. M. 
Darnley’s Birth-place.— In answer to the in- 
quiry, in No. 8. p. 123, as to the birth-place of 
Henry Lord Darnley, I believe he was born at 
Temple-Newsom, near Leeds, the seat of the 
Lords Irvine, and now of Meynell Ingram, Esq. 
A noble room is there shown as the traditional 
scene of his birth. R. M. M. 
History of Edward II.— The compilers of the 
British Museum Catalogue attribute the History of 
Edward II. (referred to in No. 4. p. 59.) to Ed- 
ward Fannant, who also published a Narration of 
the Memorable Parliament of 1386, which has been 
several times printed. J.RS.

Act.— When I read the question of your corre-
