"_Paucis abhinc diebus_ prodiit _ab uno e nostris erutus in lucem_ Anonymus Ravennas, qui _ante annos circiter mille_ de Geographia scripsit libros quinque. [Michel Germain à Gattola, _Dec. 31. 1686_.] Je vous destine un volume _in 8vo._ que notre cher Dom. Placide Porcheron vient de donner au public, c'est un Anonyme de Ravenne, Goth ou Grec de naissance, _qui vivait il y a mille ans_ ... [the same, to Magliabechi, _Jan. 10. 1687_.]" The editor gives the date 1688, and the form 4to., for this book; the date is evidently a misprint. C. P. Ph***. _The Lion, a Symbol of the Resurrection_ (Vol. i., pp. 385. 472.).--As JARLTZBERG has not replied to MR. EASTWOOD'S Query, permit me to refer the latter to _Sacred Latin Poetry Selected_, by R. C. Trench, London, 1849, pp. 67. 152. 153.: "The Middle-Age legend, that the lion's whelps were born dead and first roused to life on the third day by the roar of their sire, was often alluded to in connexion with, and as a natural type of the Resurrection. Adam de S. Victore (_De SS. Evangelistis_, verse 25.): "'Est leonis rugientis Marco vultus, resurgentis Quo claret potentia: Voce Patris excitatus Surgit Christus....' "Again, _De Resurrectione Domini_, verse 54.: "'Sic de Judâ Leo fortis, Fractis portis diræ mortis Die surgit tertiâ, Rugiente voce Patris....' "Hugo de S. Victore (_De Best._, lib. ii. cap. 1.): "Cum leæna parit, suos catulos mortuos parit, et ita custodit tribus diebus, donec veniens Pater eorum in faciem eorum exhalet, et vivificentur. Sic Omnipotens Pater Filium suum tertiâ die suscitavit a mortuis. "Hildebert (_De Leone_): "Natus non vigilat dum Sol se tertiò gyrat, Sed dans rugitum pater ejus suscitat illum: Tunc quasi vivescit, tunc sensus quinque capescit." C. P. Ph***. _Paring the Nails, &c._ (Vol. ii., p. 511.; Vol. iii., p. 55.).--The legend that I have heard in Devonshire differs from that quoted in Vol. ii. It ran thus: "Friday cut hair, Sunday cut horn, Better that man had never been born."
