_George Herbert._--J.R. FOX (Vol. ii., p. 103.) will find in Major's excellent edition of Walton's _Lives_ the information he requires. At p. 346. it is stated that Mrs. Herbert, the widow of George Herbert, was afterwards the wife of Sir Robert Cook, of Highnam, in the county of Gloucester, Knt., eight years, and lived his widow about fifteen; all which time she took a pleasure in mentioning and commending the excellences of Mr. George Herbert. She died in the year 1653, and lies buried at Highnam; Mr. Herbert in his own church, under the altar, and covered with a gravestone without any inscription. And amongst the notes appended by Major to these _Lives_, is the following additional notice of Herbert's burial-place. The parish register of Bemerton states that "Mr. George Herbert, Esq., parson of Inggleston and Bemerton, was buried the 3rd day of March, 1632." "Thus he lived and thus he died," says Walton, "like a saint, unspotted of the world, full of almsdeeds, full of humility, and all the examples of a virtuous life, which I cannot conclude better than with this borrowed observation: "'--All must to their cold graves; But the religious actions of the just Smell sweet in death, and blossom in the dust.'" Altered from a dirge written by Shirley, attached {158} to his _Contention of Ajax and Ulysses for the Armour of Achilles_, Lond. 1659, 8vo. See Percy's _Reliques of English Poetry_, vol. i. p. 284. J.M.G. Worcester, July 22. _Lord Delamere_ (Vol. ii., p. 104.).--In Mr. Thomas Lyte's _Ancient Ballads and Songs_, 12mo. 1827, is a ballad, taken down from tradition, entitled _Lord Delamere_. It begins as follows, and though different from the opening lines given by Mr. Peacock, I am inclined to think that it is another version of the same ballad: In the parliament house, A great rout has been there, Betwixt our good king And the Lord Delamere; Says Lord Delamere To his Majesty full soon, Will it please you, my liege, To grant me a boon? After nine more stanzas, the editor remarks, "We have not, as yet, been able to trace out the historical incident upon which the ballad appears to have been founded, yet those curious in such matters may consult, if they list, _Proceedings and Debates in the House of Commons for 1621 and 1622_, where they will find that some stormy debatings in these several years have been agitated in Parliament regarding the corn laws, which bear pretty close upon the leading features of the above."

Rimbault. _Execution of Charles I._ (Vol. ii., p. 72.).--P.S.W.E. is referred to _An exact and most impartial Accompt of the Indictment, Arraignment, Trial, and Judgment (according to law), of twenty-nine Regicides, &c._, 1660.
