In the series of "Tudor Facsimile Texts " (T. C.

and E. C. Jack) we have The World and the Child, from the edition of 1522 ; The Story of King Darius, from the edition of 1565; and A Contract of Marriage between Wit and Wisdom, from a MS. now in the British Museum, and probably of the data of 1579 (circa). This is a very remarkable collection, and will prove of no small use, as well as of interest, to the scholar.
