The following paper, which was submitted + to Mr. Carlyle for the second or third edition of his work, + contains all the references to the great Protector which are to + be found in the papers now in the possession of the trustees. + The appointment of Oliver Cromwell as a feoffee does not appear + in any of the documents now remaining with the governors of the + charity. The records of the proceedings if the feoffees of his + time consist only of the collector's yearly accounts of monies + received and expended, and do not show the appointments of the + feoffees. These accounts were laid before the feoffees from + time to time, and signed by them in testimony of their + allowance.</p> + + <p>Cromwell's name might therefore be expected to be found at + the foot of some of them; but it unfortunately happens that, + from the year 1622 to the year 1641, there is an hiatus in the + accounts. At the end of Book No. 1., between forty and fifty + leaves have been cut away, and at the commencement of Book no. + 2. about twelve leaves more. Whether some collector of + curiosities has purloined these leaves for the sale of any + autographs of Cromwell contained in them, or whether their + removal may be accounted for by the questions which arose at + the latter end of the above period as to the application of the + funds of the charity, cannot now be ascertained.</p> + + <p>There are however, still in the possession of the governors + of the charity, several documents which clearly show that from + the year 1635 to the year 1641 Cromwell was a feoffee or + governor, and took an active part in the management of the + affairs of the charity. There is an original bond, dated the + 30th of May, 1638, from one Robert Newborne to "Daniell + Wigmore, Archdeacon of Ely, Oliver Cromwell, Esq., and the rest + of the Corporation of Ely." The feoffees had then been + incorporated by royal charter, under the title of "The + Governors of the Lands and Possessions of the Poor of the City + or Town of Ely."</p> + + <p>There are some detached collectors' accounts extending over + a portion of the interval between 1622 and 1641, and indorsed, + "The Accoumpts of Mr. John Hand and Mr. William Cranford, + Collectors of the Revenewes belonging to the Towne of Ely."</p> + + <p>The following entries are extracted from these + accounts:—</p> + + <div class="poem"> + <div class="stanza"> + <p>"The Disbursements of Mr. John Hand from the of + August 1636 unto the of + 1641."</p> + </div> + + <div class="stanza"> + <p>"Anno 1636."</p> + </div> + </div> + + <p>After several other items,—</p> + + <table summary="expenses" + align="center" + width="80%"> + <tr> + <td></td> + + <td></td> + + <td align="right">£</td> + + <td align="right"><i>s.</i></td> + + <td align="right"><i>d.</i></td> + </tr> + + <tr> + <td align="left">"Given to diverse Poore People at ye + Worke-house, in the presence of Mr. Archdeacon of Ely, + Mr. Oliver Cromwell, Mr. John Goodericke, and others, + Feb. 10th 1636, as appeareth, Archdeacon of Ely, Mr. + Oliver Cromwell,</td> + + <td align="center"><font size="+5">}</font></td> + + <td align="right">16</td> + + <td align="right">14</td> + + <td align="right">0</td> + </tr> + + <tr> + <td></td> + + <td></td> + + <td colspan="3">___________</td> + </tr> + + <tr> + <td align="left">Summa Expens.

The + commissioners sat at Ely, on the 25th of January, 1641, and at + Cambridge on the 3rd of March in the same year, when several of + the feoffees with other persons were examined.</p> + + <p>At the conclusion of the joint deposition of John Hand and + William Cranford, two of the feoffees, is the following + statement:—</p> + + <blockquote> + <p>"And as to the Profitts of the said Lands in theire tyme + receaved, they never disposed of any parte thereof but by + the direction and appointment of Mr. Daniell Wigmore, + Archdeacon of Ely, Mr. William March, and Mr. Oliver + Cromwell."</p> + + <p>"These last two names were inserted att Camb. 8 Mar. + 1641, by Mr. Hy.

It requires them to appear before + the commissioners at the Dolphin Inn, in Ely, on the 25th of + the then instant January, to produce before the commissioners a + true account "of the monies, fines, rents, and profits by you + and every of you and your predecessors feoffees receaved out of + the lands given by one Parsons for the benefitt of the + inhabitants of Ely for 16 years past," &c.

The office was usually taken by the + feoffees in turn then, as at the present time; but Cromwell + most probably was called to a higher sphere of action before + his turn arrived.</p> + + <p>It is worthy of note, that Cromwell's fellow-trustees, the + Bishop of Ely (who was the celebrated Matthew Wren), Fuller the + Dean, and Wigmore the Archdeacon, were all severely handled + during the Rebellion.</p> + + <p class="author">ARUN.</p> + <hr /> + + <h3>DR. SAM. PARR AND DR. JOHN TAYLOR, OF SHREWSBURY AND + SHREWSBURY SCHOOL.</h3> + + <p>Looking at the Index to the _Memoirs of Gilbert Wakefield_, + edit. of 1804, I saw, under the letter T., the following + entries:—</p> + + <div class="poem"> + <div class="stanza"> + <p>"Taylor, Rev. Dr. John, Tutor of Warrington Academy, + i. 226.</p> + + <p>—— his latinity, why faulty, ii. + 449."</p> + </div> + </div> + + <p>But I instantly suspected an error: for it was my belief + that those two notices were designed for two distinct scholars. + Accordingly, I revised both passages, and found that I was + right in my conjecture. The facts are these:—In the + former of the references, "The Rev. John Taylor, D.D.," is + pointed out. The other individual, of the same name, was John + Taylor, LL.D., a native of Shrewsbury, and a pupil of + Shrewsbury School: HIS <i>latinity</i> it is which Dr. Samuel + Parr [<i>ut supr.</i>] characterises as FAULTY: and for the + defects of which he endeavours, successfully or otherwise, to + account. So that whosoever framed the <i>Index</i> has here + committed an oversight.</p> + + <p>In the quotation which I proceed to make, Parr is assigning + causes of what, as I think, he truly deemed blemishes in G. + Wakefield's Latin style; and this is the language of the not + unfriendly censor:—</p> + + <blockquote> + <p>"—None, I fear, of his [W.'s] Latin productions + are wholly free from faults, which he would have been + taught to avoid in our best public seminaries, and of which + I have seen many glaring instances in the works of + Archbishop Potter, Dr. John Taylor, Mr. Toup, and several + eminent scholars now living, who were brought up in private + schools."</p> + </blockquote><span class="pagenum"><a name="page467" + id="page467"></a>{467}</span> + + <p>But could Parr mean to rank Shrewsbury School among the + "private schools?" I am not old enough to recollect what it was + in the times of Taylor, J., the civilian, and the editor of + Demosthenes. Its celebrity, however, in our own day, and + through a long term of preceding years, is confessed. Dr. + Parr's judgement in this case might be somewhat influenced by + his prepossessions as an <i>Harrovian</i>.</p> + + <p class="author">N.</p> + + <p>April, 1850.</p> + <hr /> + + <h3>PROVINCIAL WORDS.</h3> + + <p>In <i>Twelfth Night</i>, Act ii. Scene 3., occur the words + "Sneck up," in C. Knight's edition, or "Snick up," Mr. + Collier's edition. These words appear most unaccountably to + have puzzled the commentators. Sir Toby Belch uses them in + reply to Malvolio, as,—</p> + + <center> + <i>Enter</i> MALVOLIO. + </center> + + <blockquote> + <p>"<i>Mal.</i> My masters, are you mad? or what are you? + Have you no wit, manners, nor honesty, but to gabble like + tinkers at this time of night? Do you make an alehouse of + my lady's house, that you squeak out your cozier's catches + without any mitigation or remorse of voice? Is there no + respect of place, person, nor time, in you?</p> + + <p>"<i>Sir To.</i> We did keep time, Sir, in our catches. + Sneck up!"</p> + </blockquote> + + <p>"Sneck up," according to Mr. C. Knight, is explained + thus:—</p> + + <blockquote> + <p>"A passage in Taylor, the Water Poet, would show that + this means 'hang yourself.' A verse from his 'Praise of + Hempseed' is given in illustration."</p> + </blockquote> + + <p>"Snick up," according to Mr. Collier, is said to be "a term + of contempt," of which the precise meaning seems to have been + lost. Various illustrations are given, as see his Note; but all + are wide of the meaning.</p> + + <p>Turn to Halliwell's <i>Dictionary of Archaic and Provincial + Words</i>, 2d edition, and there is this + explanation:—</p> + + <blockquote> + <p>"SNECK, that part of the iron fastening of a door which + is raised by moving the latch. To <i>sneck</i> a door, is + to latch it."</p> + </blockquote> + + <p>See also Burn's Poems: <i>The Vision, Duan First</i>, 7th + verse, which is as follows:—</p> + + <div class="poem"> + <div class="stanza"> + <p>"When dick! the string the snick did + draw,—</p> + + <p>And jee! the door gaed to the wa';</p> + + <p>An' by my ingle-lowe I saw,</p> + + <p class="i10">Now bliezin' bright,</p> + + <p>A tight, outlandish Hizzie, braw,</p> + + <p class="i10">Come full in sight."</p> + </div> + </div> + + <p>These quotations will clearly show that "sneck" or "snick" + applies to a door; and that to <i>sneck</i> a door is to shut + it. I think, therefore, that Sir Toby meant to say in the + following reply:—</p> + + <blockquote> + <p>"We did keep time, Sir, in our catches. Sneck up!"</p> + </blockquote> + + <p>That is, close up, shut up, or, as is said now, "bung + up,"—emphatically, "We kept true time;" and the + probability is, that in saying this, Sir Toby would accompany + the words with the action of pushing an imaginary door; or + <i>sneck up</i>.</p> + + <p>In the country parts of Lancashire, and indeed throughout + the North of England, and it appears Scotland also, the term + "sneck the door" is used indiscriminately with "shut the door" + or "toin't dur." And there can be little doubt but that this + provincialism was known to Shakspeare, as his works are full of + such; many of which have either been passed over by his + commentators, or have been wrongly noted, as the one now under + consideration.</p> + + <p>Shakspeare was essentially a man of the people; his learning + was from within, not from colleges or schools, but from the + universe and himself. He wrote the language of the people; that + is, the common every-day language of his time: and hence mere + classical scholars have more than once mistaken him, and most + egregiously misinterpreted him, as I propose to show in some + future Notes.</p> + + <p class="author">R.R.</p> + <hr /> + + <h3>FOLK LORE.</h3> + + <p><i>Death-bed Superstition</i>. (No. 20. p. 315.).—The + practice of opening doors and boxes when a person dies, is + founded on the idea that the ministers of purgatorial pains + took the soul as it escaped from the body, and flattening it + against some closed door (which alone would serve the purpose), + crammed it into the hinges and hinge openings; thus the soul in + torment was likely to be miserably pinched and squeezed by the + movement on casual occasion of such door or lid: an open or + swinging door frustrated this, and the fiends had to try some + other locality. The friends of the departed were at least + assured that they were not made the unconscious instruments of + torturing the departed in their daily occupations. The + superstition prevails in the North as well as in the West of + England; and a similar one exists in the South of Spain, where + I have seen it practised.</p> + + <p>Among the Jews at Gibraltar, at which place I have for many + years been a resident, there is also a strange custom when a + death occurs in the house; and this consists in pouring away + all the water contained in any vessel, the superstition being + that the angel of death may have washed his sword therein.</p> + + <p class="author">TREBOR.</p> + <hr /> + + <p><i>May Marriages</i>.—It so happened that yesterday I + had both a Colonial Bishop and a Home Archdeacon taking part in + the services of my church, and visiting at my house; and, by a + singular coincidence, both had been solicited by friends to + perform the marriage ceremony not later than to-morrow, because + in neither case would the bride-elect submit to be married in + the month of May. <span class="pagenum"><a name="page468" + id="page468"></a>{468}</span> I find that it is a common + notion amongst ladies, that May marriages are unlucky.</p> + + <p>Can any one inform me whence this prejudice arose?</p> + + <p class="author">ALFRED GATTY.</p> + + <p>Ecclesfield, April 29. 1850.</p> + + <p class="note">[This superstition is as old as Ovid's time, + who tells us in his <i>Fasti</i>,</p> + + <div class="poem" + style="font-size: 0.9em;"> + <div class="stanza"> + <p class="i2">"Nec viduæ tædis eadem, nec virginis + apta</p> + + <p class="i4">Tempora.

The spectre of this + gentleman is believed by the vulgar to be doomed, annually, on + a certain night in the year, to drive, for a period of 1000 + years, a coach drawn by four headless horses, over a circuit of + twelve bridges in that vicinity.

The + resolution would have been unwise; for silence, on many + occasions, would be a dereliction of those duties which we owe + to ourselves and the public.</p> + + <p>The halcyon days, so much desired, may be far distant! I + have to comment, elsewhere, on certain parts of the + <i>Report</i> of the commissioners on the British + Museum—which I hope to do firmly, yet respectfully; and + on the evidence of Mr. Panizzi—in which task I must not + disappoint his just expectations. I have also to propose a + query on the <i>blunder of Malone</i>—to which I give + precedence, as it relates to Shakspeare.</p> + + <p>The query is—have I "mistaken the whole affair"? A few + short paragraphs may enable others to decide.</p> + + <p>1. The question at issue arose, I presume to say, out of the + <i>statement of Mr. Jebb</i>. I never quoted the Irish edition. + If <i>C.</i> can prove that Malone superintended it, he may + fairly tax me with a violation of my new canon of + criticism—not otherwise. What says Mr. James Boswell on + that point? I must borrow his precise words: "The only edition + for which Mr. Malone can be considered as responsible [is] his + own in 1790." [<i>Plays and poems of W.S.</i> 1821, i. + xxxiii.]</p> + + <p>2. I am said to have "repeated what <i>C.</i> had already + stated."—I consulted the <i>Shakspere</i> of Malone, and + verified my recollections, when the query of "Mr. JEBB" + appeared—but forbore to notice its misconceptions. + Besides, one <i>C.</i>, after an interval of two months, merely + <i>asserted</i> that it was not a blunder of Malone; the other + C. furnished, off-hand, his proofs and references.</p> + + <p>3. To argue fairly, we must use the same words in the same + sense. Now <i>C.</i> (No. 24. p. 386.) asserts the <i>Malone + had never seen</i> the introductory fragment; and asks, who + <i>forged</i> it? He uses the word <i>fabrication</i> in the + sense of forgery.—The facts are produced (No. 25. p. + 404.). He is informed that the <i>audacious fabrication</i>, + which took place before 1770, was first published by Malone + himself, in 1790—yet he expects me to apply the same + terms to the blunder committed by another editor in 1794.</p> + + <p>4. As an answer to my assertion that the Irish editor + <i>attempted to unite</i> the two fragments, <i>C.</i> proceeds + to prove that he <i>did not unite them</i>. The procedure is + rather defective in point of logical exactness. It proves only + what was not denied. Malone refers to the <i>will of John + Shakspere, found by Joseph Moseley</i>, with sufficient + clearness; and it is charitable to assume that the Irish editor + intended to observe the instructions of his precursor. He + failed, it seems—but why? It would be useless to go in + search of the rationale of a blunder.</p> + + <p>Have I "<i>mistaken the whole affair</i>"?—I entreat + those readers of the "NOTES AND QUERIES" who may take up the + affirmative side of the question to point out my errors, + whether as to facts or inferences.</p> + + <p class="author">BOLTON CORNET.</p> + <hr /> + + <h3>AUTHORS WHO HAVE PRIVATELY PRINTED THEIR OWN WORKS.</h3> + + <p>Can any of your readers refer me to any source whence I can + obtain an account of "JOHN PAINTER, B.A. of St. John's College, + Oxford?"

PERCY AND THE POEMS OF THE EARL OF SURREY.</h3> + + <p>I have the means of showing what Dr. Percy did with the + poems of the Earl of Surrey, because I have a copy of the work + now before me.</p> + + <p>It can hardly be said that he "prepared an edition" of those + poems, as supposed by your correspondent "G." on the authority + of Watts's <i>Bibliotheca Britannica</i>, but he made an exact + reprint of the <i>Songes and Sonnettes written by the Right + Honorable Lorde Henry Haward, late Earle of Surrey, and + other</i>, which was printed <i>Apud Richardum Tottell. Cum + privilegio ad imprimendum solum</i>. 1557. The Bishop of + Dromere made no attempt at editing the work much beyond what + was necessary to secure an exact reimpression. He prefixed no + Life of Surrey (a point "G." wishes to ascertain); and, in + fact, the book was never completed. It contains considerably + more than the reprint of the poems of Lord Surrey, and was + intended to consist of two volumes with separate pagination; + the first volume extending to p. 272., and the second to p. + 342.</p> + + <p>As the work is a rarity, owing to an unfortunate accident, + some of your readers may like to see a brief notice of it. + Watts (as quoted by "G." for I have not his portly volumes at + hand,) states that the "whole impression" was "consumed in the + fire which took place in Mr. Nicholls's premises in 1808." This + was a mistake, as my extant copy establishes; and + <i>Restituta</i> (iii. 451.) informs us that <i>four</i> were + saved. Of the history of my own impression I know nothing + beyond the fact, that I paid a very high price for it some + twenty years since, at an auction; but the late Mr. Grenville + had another copy, which I had an opportunity of seeing, and + which had belonged to T. Park, and had been sent to him by Dr. + Percy for the advantage of his notes and remarks. This, I + presume, is now in the British Museum; whither it came with the + rest of Mr. Grenville's books, four or five years ago.</p> + + <p>The "Songs and Sonnets" of Surrey occupy only the first + forty pages of vol. i.; then follow "Songs and sonnets" by Sir + Thomas Wyat to p. 111. inclusive; and they are succeeded by + poems "of uncertain authors," which occupy the rest of the the + first volume. The second volume begins with "The Seconde Boke + of Virgiles Ænæis," filling thirty pages; while "the Fourth + Boke" ends at p. 57., with the imprint of R. Tottell, and the + date of 1557. "Ecclesiastes and Certain Psalms by by Henry Earl + of Surrey," which are "from ancient MSS. never before + imprinted," close at p. 81. "Certayne Psalmes chosen out of the + Psalter of David," consisting of the seven penitential psalms, + with the imprint of Thomas Raynald and John Harrington," fill + thirty pages; and to them is added "Sir Thomas Wyat's Defence," + from the Strawberry Hill edition; which, with a few appended + notes, carries the work on to p. 141.</p> + + <p>A new title-page, at which we now arrive, shows us the + intention of Dr. Percy, and the object at which he had all + along aimed: it runs thus:—"Poems in Bland Verse (not + Dramatique) prior to Milton's <i>Paradise Lost.</i> Subsequent + to Lord Surrey's in this Volume, and to N.G.'s in the + preceding." In truth, Dr. Percy was making a collection in the + two volumes of all the English undramatic blank verse he could + discover, prior to the publication of Milton's great poem. He + was guilty of some important omissions, because bibliographical + knowledge was not then as far advanced as at present, but he + performed good service to letters as far as he was able to go; + and the blank verse productions he subjoins are by George + Tubervile, George Gascoigne, Barnabie Riche, George Peele, + James Aske, William Vallans, Nicholas Breton, George Chapman, + and Christopher Marlow. These occupy from p. 342. of vol. + ii.</p> + + <p>This list might now be considerably increased; but my + present business is only to answer the Query of "G.," as to the + nature and contents of the work. It has been said, I know not + on what authority, that Steevens assisted Percy in preparing + and printing it.

A white + skin is not fair, nor a fair skin white.

A contemplation of these would tell us what the + "human face divine" would become, were we any of us truly + <i>white-skinned</i>.</p> + + <p>The skin diverges in tint from the white, in one direction + towards the yellow, and in another towards the red or pink; + whilst sometimes we witness a seeming tinge of + blue,—characteristic of asphyxia, cholera, or some other + disease.

When, by the admixture + of the coloured races with the negro, we find coloured skins, + they <i>always</i> tend to the yellow, as in the various + mulatto shades of the West Indies, and especially in the + Southern States of America; and the same is true of the + "half-castes" of British India, though with a distinct darkness + or blackness, which the descendant of the negro does not + generally show.</p> + + <p>Though I have, in accordance with the usual language of + philosophers, spoken of <i>blue</i> as an element in the colour + of the skin, I have some doubt whether it be a "true blue" or + not. It is quite as likely to arise from a partial + participation in the quality of the negro skin—that of + absorbing a large portion of the light without any analysis + whatever. This may be called <i>darkness</i>.</p> + + <p>However, to return to the Query: the term <i>pale</i> is + applied to the yellow-tinted skin; <i>fair</i>, to the red or + pink; <i>brown</i>, to the mixture of red and yellow, with + either blue or such darkness as above described; <i>sallow</i>, + to yellow and darkness; and the only close approach to + <i>whiteness</i> that we ever see, is in the sick room of the + long-suffering fair complexion.

They were "scottled," or made subject to a + tax or assessment for drainage purposes. Two eminent + topographical writers of the present day are inclined to be of + opinion that this word <i>cavell</i> is connected with the + Saxon <i>gafol</i>, gavel-tributum—money paid—which + we have in <i>gavel-kind</i> and <i>gavelage</i>. One of them, + however, suggests that the word <i>may</i> be only a term used + in Holland as applicable to land, and then introduced by the + Dutch at the time of the drainage in question.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> diff --git a/15197-h/images/475.png b/15197-h/images/475.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..988b01f --- /dev/null +++ b/15197-h/images/475.png |
