THE LIFE OV 



there recommendedj so an attentive study of our Autlior's next Avork 

 may perhaps contribute to improve their taste in building. It is entitled, 



15. "A Parallel of the ancient Architecture with the modern, in a col- 

 " lection of ten principal AuthorSj who have written upon the five 

 " orders, viz. Palladio and Scamozzij Gerlio and Vignolaj D. Barbaro 

 " and Cataneo, L. B. Alberti and Viola, BuUart and De Lorme, com- 

 " pared with one another; The three orders, Doricj Ionic, and Corinthian, 

 " comprise the first part of this treatise ; and the two Latin, Tuscan and 

 « Composite, the latter. Written in French by Rowland Freart, Sieur de 

 « Cambray ; made English for the benefit of Builders. To which is 

 " added, an account of Architects and Architecture, in an historical and 

 "etymological explanation of certain terms, particularly affected by 

 "Architects. With Leo Babtista Alberti's treatise of Statues." 1664, 

 folio. This work, as well as the former, is dedicated to King Charles II. 

 A second edition of it was published in 1669 ; a third in 1697 ; and a 

 fourth in 1733, to which is annexed " The Elements of Architecture, 

 " collected by Sir Henry Wotton, and also other large additions." — 



16. Mvr^giov rrii Awpa; : " That is, Another part of the Mystery of Jesuitism ; 

 or the new Heresy of the Jesuits, publicly maintained at Paris in the 



" college of Clermont, the; 12th of December, 1661, declared to all the 

 " Bishops of France, according to the copy printed at Paris ; together 

 " with the imaginary Heresy, in three Letters ; with divers other parti- 

 Culars relating to this abominable JMystery, never before published in 

 " English." i664, 8vo. This is the only piece of a controversial turn 

 among Mr. Evelyn's works. It has not indeed his name to it : but that 

 it is really his, we learn from a letter written by him to Mr. Boyle. — 



17. " Kalendarium Hortense ; or the Gardener's Almanac, directing what 

 " he is to do monthly throughout the year, and what fruits and flowers are 

 " in prime." 1664, 8vo. The second edition of this book was dedicated 

 to Mr. Cowley, with whom our Author maintained a long and inviolable 

 friendship ; and it occasioned Mr. Cowley to address to him his mixt 

 essay in prose and verse, entitled "The Garden." The Kalendarium 

 Hortense went throtigh a vast number of editions. The Author made 

 additions to it as long as he lived, So that the best is that which was 

 printed by way of appendix to the fourth and last edition of the Silva, in 

 his life-time ; it is also in the fifth edition of that Work printed after his 

 decease.
