were all dedicated to the king and to the queen; the two latter are all in Old English type. These were followed by an edition dedicated to Edward VI. in a Swiss type, 4to., printed at Zurich by Chr. Froschover, and published under three titles--1st, as the translation of Thos. Matthewe; 2nd, as the translation of Myles Coverdale, London, by Andrew Hester, 1550; and 3rd, London, by Jugge, 1553. These are books of great rarity, and may be all seen in my library by any of your readers, sanctioned by a note from you or any minister of religion. My first edition has several uncut leaves. The introduction of the words "from the Douche (meaning Luther's German) and Latyn" has never been accounted for; they probably were inserted by the German printer to make the volume more popular, so as to interest reformers by the German of Luther, and Romanists by the Vulgate Latin. The translation is certainly from the Hebrew and Greek, compared with Luther's and the Vulgate. GEORGE OFFOR. Grove Street, Victoria Park. _Age of the Oak._--The late Queries respecting the age of trees, remind me of some lines of which I have been long in search-- "The monarch oak, the patriarch of the trees, Shoots rising up, and spreads by slow degrees: Three centuries he grows, and three he stays Supreme in state; and in three more decays." I think it probable that they are from a play of Dryden or Otway; but some of your readers may probably be able to answer this Query. T. C. Durham. [In Richardson's _Dictionary_, as well as in the _Encyclopædia Metropolitana_, these lines are quoted under the word _Patriarch_, as from _The Cock and the Fox_, by Dryden; whereas Bysshe, in his _Art of English Poetry_, under the word _Oak_, refers us to Dryden's _Ovid_. In neither of these pieces do they occur; our correspondent, however, will find them in Dryden's _Palamon and Arcite, or the Knight's Tale_, line 2334.] _Olivarius._--Can any of your readers inform me what is the title of a book written by Olivarius, a French astrologer, 1542, in which there is a prophecy relative to France, and somewhat similar to that of St. Cæsarius (p. 471.)? What was his christian name, and in what library is the work to be found? CLERICUS D. Dublin. [Maittaire, in his _Annales Typograph._, tom. v. pt. ii. p. 102., notices the following work: "Olivarius (Petrus Joannes) Valentinus de Prophetiâ. Basileæ ex officinâ Joannis Oporini, 1543, mense Augusto." From the catalogues of the British Museum and the Bodleian, it does not appear to be in either of these libraries.] _Vincent Bourne's Epilogus in Eunuchum Terentii._--Will any of your readers inform me whether an Epilogue to the _Eunuch_ of Terence, written by V. Bourne, and spoken in 1746, has ever been printed in any, and what, edition of Bourne's _Poems_? Gnatho appears on the stage, dressed as a recruiting sergeant, with several recruits, and thus begins:
