7. Three Physico-Theological Discourses concern- 

 ing the Chaos, Deluge, and Dissolution of the World. 



8. Observations, Topographical, Moral, and Phy- 

 siological, made in a Journey through Part of the 

 Low Countries, &c. London, 1673. A second edi- 

 tion in 1738. 



To these may be added, 



9. Francisci Willughbeii Ornithologiai, Libri tres, 

 with plates. Folio, London, 1676. There is also 

 an edition in English, with three discourses, viz. Of 

 the Art of Fowling, Of the Ordering of Singing 

 Birds, and Of Falconry. London, 1678.

When this pious writer died, his papers were in- 

 trusted to his friend Dr Derham, who, having ar- 

 ranged and selected such as seemed of most import- 

 ance, published a part of them in 1718, under 

 the name of Philosophical Letters between the late 

 learned Mr Ray and several of his ingenious Cor- 

 respondents, natives and foreigners, to which are 

 added those of Francis Willughby, Esq. The same 

 person, as has been already mentioned, also edited 

 the Synopsis of Birds and Fishes, and prepared for 

 publication his posthumous work on Insects. He 

 moreover got ready for the press his Travels in Eng- 

 land, Wales, and Scotland, to which he intended to 

 prefix an account of the author ; but, although the 

 life was written, the book did not make its appear- 

 ance until a later period, when, as has been noted 

 above, it came forth under the direction of Mr George 

 Scott, bearing the title of the Select Remains of the 

 learned John Ray.
