With an account of the Dean's family. "It must be owned, he was the ingenious Herald who blasoned the dignity of their arms." In the Dean's MS.

But in the "Anecdotes" preserved at Dublin he mentions another coat, borne by one of his ancestors, 'a dolphin, in those days called a Swift, twisted about an anchor, with this motto, Festina lentè."

Nouvelle traduction de deux ouvrages de Corneille Tacite. [Vignettes maps.] A Lyon, chez Anisson & Posnel, 1706. 8vo.

This translation of the Germania and Agricola was written by Philip the 5th of Spain. "Celui qui m'a Communiqué le manuscrit m'a assûré qu'elles étoient le fruit des premières études d'un grand Prince, & plusieurs raisons ne me laissent pas lieu d'en douter."-Preface.

This copy seems to have belonged to Philip the 5th himself, his arms and fleurs-de-lys being stamped in gold on the cover. It seems to be the copy mentioned by Lebarbier as having afterwards belonged to Chardon de la Rochette: "il parle d'un exemplaire aux armes de Philippe V., traducteur de ce livre, qui appartenait à Chardon de la Rochette."MS. note on fly-leaf.
