Page 104, l. 15. Canterbury College was founded at Oxford in 1363 by Simon Islip, Archbishop of Canterbury. It was incorporated in Christ Church, Wolsey's foundation, and so 'lost its name'; but the name survives in the Canterbury quadrangle.

Perhaps a reminiscence of Dryden's _Annus Mirabilis_, 1667, stanza 276: The daring Flames peep't in, and saw from far The awful Beauties of the Sacred Quire: But since it was prophan'd by Civil War, Heav'n thought it fit to have it purg'd by fire. l. 29. _too too_, so in the original; perhaps but not certainly a misprint. 27. Mémoires, 1701, pp. 93-6. Page 112, l. 9. _Lord Portland_, Sir Richard Weston: see No. 5. l. 13. _white staff_, see p. 21, l. 7 note. 28. Clarendon, MS. Life, pp. 152-3; _History_, Bk. IV, ed. 1702, vol. i, pp. 332-3; ed. Macray, vol. i, pp. 563-5. This is the first of three characters of Hertford in Clarendon's _History_. The others, in Bk. VI (MS. Life) ed. Macray, ii. 528, and Bk. VII (MS. History) iii. 128, are supplementary. Page 114, l. 10. _disobligations_, on account of his secret marriage with James's cousin, Arabella Stuart, daughter of Charles Stuart, Earl of Lennox, brother of the Earl of Darnley. She died a prisoner in the Tower; he escaped to France, but after her death was allowed to return to England in 1616. He succeeded his grandfather as Earl of Hertford in 1621. He lived in retirement from the dissolution of Parliament in March 1629 to 1640, when he was made a Privy Councillor. Page 115, l. 5. He was appointed Governor to the Prince of Wales in May 1641, in succession to the Earl of Newcastle. He was then in his fifty-third year. In the following month he was made a Marquis. See his life in Lady Theresa Lewis's _Lives of the Friends of Clarendon_, vol. ii, pp. 436-42. Page 116, l. 2. _attacque_, an unexpected form of 'attach' at this time, and perhaps a slip, but 'attack' and 'attach' are ultimately the same word; cf. Italian _attaccare_. The _New English Dictionary_ gives an instance in 1666 of 'attach' in the sense of 'attack'. 29. Clarendon, MS. History, Transcript, vol. iv, pp. 440-2; _History_, Bk. VIII, ed. 1703, vol. ii, pp. 391-3; ed. Macray, vol. iii, pp. 380-3. The original manuscript of much of Book VIII is lost. The text is taken from the transcript that was made for the printers.
