II. Buffon's name, marked F, the F standing 

 also for ' French ' when any popular French 

 name is given with BufFon's. 



III. The German popular name, marked T 

 (Teutonic), for I want the G for Mr. Gould ; 

 and this T will include authoritative German 

 scientific names also. 



IV. The Italian popular name, if one exists, 

 to give the connection with old Latin, marked I. 



V. Mr. Gould's name, G ; Yarrell's, Y, Dress- 

 ler's, D ; and Gesner's, Ges, being added, if 

 different. 



VI. Bewick's, B. 



VII. Shakspeare's and Chaucer's, if I know 

 them ; and general references, such as may be 

 needful. 



The Appendix will thus contain the names 

 of all the birds I am able to think or learn 

 anything about, as I can set down what I 

 think or learn ; and with no other attempt at 

 order than the slight grouping of convenience : 

 but the numbers of the species examined will 

 be consecutive, so that L. M. 25, — Love's 

 Meinie, Number twenty-five, — or whatever 

 the number may be, will at once identify any 

 bird in the system of the St. George's schools.
