---- Orbis Sensvalivm Pictus (Visible World), or, A Picture and
Nomenclature of all the chief Things that are in the World, and
of Mens employments therein. A Work newly written by the Author

Private Grammar-School in Lothbury. London. For the use of young
Latine-Scholars. With portrait of Komenský. 8º. 309 pp. Printed for

---- An Exhortation of the Churches of Bohemia to the Church of
England: Wherein is set forth the Good of Unity, Order, Discipline
and Obedience, in Churches rightly now, or to be Constituted.
With a Description premised of the Order and Discipline us’d in
the Churches of the Brethren in Bohemia. Written in Latine and
dedicated to his most Excellent Majesty Charls the Second, in
Holland, at his Returning into England; if possible it may be
for an Accomodation amongst the Churches of Christ. By J. Amos
Comenius, the only surviving Bishop of the Remains of those
Churches. 4º. 78 pp. Translated by Joshua Tymarchus. Printed for
Thomas Parkhurst, at the Three Crowns, over-against the great

[15] On p. 447 of his _Písemnictví České_ (Bohemian Literature), Dr.
Flajšhans asserts that Komenský wrote in 1660 a Latin treatise on the
Unity of the Brethren, entitled _De Bono Unitatis_, etc., which he
dedicated to Charles II. Obviously the treatise referred to by Flajšhans
and the _Exhortation of the Churches of Bohemia to the Church of England_
is one and the same.
