The Ninth Part Illuminated Ornaments; contains two of the most

curious and beautiful specimens of these brilliant and ingenious de- vices. One is an extremely rich and fanciful arabesque border, con- sisting of a cherub supporting a medallion portrait—of a Sforza, Duke of Milan, we suppose, as. it illustrated the Sforziada—which is held above by an angel. The colouring and composition are exquisite. The other is an ornamental letter enclosing a picture of vine-dressers, and is taken from a manuscript copy of Virgil. Both are from the collection of Mr. HANRon.
