The Miscellanea came out in 3 parts, [pt.l] 
1680, pt.2, 1690, pt,3, 1701, all with later 
eds. Various combinations of editions and parts 
are in libraries; but we have tried to list here 
only eds. of pt,2 because it contained "Upon the 
gardens of Epicurus," 
—-— (in his Miscellanea, The second part, 2d ed, 
London, R, A- R, Simpson, 1690) (Surg, Gen, Lib,; 
Calif. State Lib,; Newberry Lib.) 
—- (in his Miscellanea, The second part, 3d ed, 
cor. A- augm, by the author, London, Printed for Rich, 
Simpson at the three trouts, and Ra, Simpson at the harp, 
in St. Paul's churchyard, 1692) (Bowdoirj Brit. Mus.)

—(In his Miscellanea, The second part, 5th ed, 
London, Printed for R, Simpson [etc.] 1705) (N, Y, Pub, 
Lib.; Peabody Lib,; Princeton; Univ, Chicago) 
Miscellanea, in two parts, the fifth edi¬ 
tion, Printed for J, Tonson, A. A: J, Churchill, 
and Ri, A- Ra, Simpson, is given in Term Cat, V, 
no,9, Killary term 1697/8 (Feb,1698) (Arber 3: 
57). The Mo. Bot. Gard, and the Brit, Mus, record 
pt.l, ed, 5, 1697; but this is the only record 
we have found of any part of the 5th ed, at so 
early a date. 
There is an ed, called "Miscellanies; in 
four essays A new edition, Glasgow, 1761" 
recorded in the Brit, Mus, Cat. If this cor¬ 
responds to pt,2 of the Miscellanea which had 
4 essays, it probably contains "Upon the gar¬ 
dens of Epicurus," But we have not given it an 
entry since we have not seen the contents.
