[Footnote 34: Simon Lomnicky of Budecz, was court poet; and in addition to the poetical crown, his talents procured him a patent of nobility. He wrote twenty-eight volumes, most of which are printed. For more general information respecting his works, and those of the other writers here mentioned, we must refer our readers to Jungmann's _Historie Literatury Czeske_, Prague, 1825, and Schaffarik's often cited work.] [Footnote 35: See the two works named in the preceding note.] [Footnote 36: Balbin was professor of rhetoric at Prague. His works are of importance for the literary history of Bohemia: _Epitome rer. Bohem_. Prague 1677. _Miscellanea hist rer. Bohem_. Prague 1680-88. After his death Unger edited in 1777-80 his _Bohemia docta_, and Pelzel in 1775 his _Dissertatio apologetica pro lingua Slavonica, præcipue Bohemica_. See below under the fifth period of Bohemian literature, near the beginning.] [Footnote 37: One of Comenius's works: _Labirynt swieta a rag srdce_, i.e. the World's Labyrinth and the Heart's Paradise, reminds us strongly of Bunyan's celebrated Pilgrim's Progress. It was first published at Prague, 1631, in 4to; and after several editions in other places, it was last printed at the same city in 1809, 12mo. His Latin works were printed at Amsterdam in 1657, under the title _Opera didactica_.] [Footnote 38: See above p. 154.] [Footnote 39: See above, p. 197.] [Footnote 40: J. Negedly translated the Iliad, and also Young's Night Thoughts under the name of _Kwileni_, Lamentations. He and his brother Adalbert are also favourably known as lyric poets. A series of new translations of the Classics in their original measures has recently been prepared; in which a Bohemian version of the Iliad by J. Wlckowski (Prague 1842), forms the first volume.] [Footnote 41: In the year 1795; the fifth and last volume appeared in 1804. Bowring has given several specimens of this collection in the For. Quart.
