"After my hartie commendac'ons, &c. Whereas in tymes past the bearer hereof hath had out of the Parke of Farnham, belonging to the Bishopricke of Winchester, certaine white clay for the making of grene potts usually drunk in by the gentlemen of the Temple, and nowe understandinge of some restraint thereof, and that you (amongst others) are authorized there in divers respects during the vacancye of the said Bishopricke; my request, therefore, unto you is, and the rather for that I am a member of the said house, that you would in favoʳ of us all p'mytt the bearer hereof to digge and carrie away so muche of the said claye as by him shalbe thought sufficient for the furnishinge of the said house wᵗʰ grene potts aforesaid, paying as he hath heretofore for the same. In accomplishment whereof myself with the whole societie shall acknowledge oʳselves much beholden unto you, and shalbe readie to requite you at all times hereafter wᵗʰ the like pleasure. And so I bid you moste heartilie farewel. "Inner Temple, this xixᵗʰ of August, 1591. "To the right worshipful Sir W'm More, Knight, geve these." This letter is printed in the _Losely Manuscripts_, p. 311. B. Bristol. _Quarles and Pascal._--In Quarles' _Emblems_, book i. Emblem vi., there is a passage: "The world's a seeming paradise, but her own And man's tormentor; Appearing fixed, yet but a rolling stone Without a tenter; _It is a vast circumference where none_ _Can find a centre._" And Pascal, in one of his _Pensées_, says: "Le monde est une sphère infinie, dont le centre est partout, la circonférence nulle part." Here we have two propositions, which, whether taken separately, or opposed to each other, would seem to contain nothing but paradox or contradiction. And yet I believe they are but different modes of expressing the same thing. HENRY H. BREEN. St. Lucia. _Offer to intending Editors._--I had hoped that some one would accept Mr. Crossley's offer of Ware's MS. notes for a new edition of _Foxes and Firebrands_. I myself will with pleasure contribute a copy of the book to print from (assuming that it will be properly executed), and also of his much rarer _Coursing of the Romish Fox_, which should form part of the volume. If any one is disposed to edit the works of Dr. John Rogers, the sub-dean of Wells, I will, with the same pleasure, supply his Address to the Quakers, of which I possess Mr. Brand's copy, which he has twice marked as _extra rare_; and Rodd, from whom I purchased it, had never seen another copy. The entire works might be comprised in two volumes octavo. It is to be regretted that Mr. Flintoff has not yet published Wallis's _Sermons on the Trinity_, to accompany his excellent edition of Wallis's _Letters_, 1840. Would it not be possible to obtain so many names as would defray the expense of printing? S. Z. Z. S.
