There appears to be a slight error in the Editor's reply to E. D.'s Query respecting Ralph Winterton's translation of Gerard's _Meditations and Prayers_. I have an earlier edition than that of 1631. It is dated 1627[3], printed at Cambridge by Thomas and John Bucke, and possesses no less than four dedications, which throw some little, and rather curious light on his history. The _first_, "To the Right Worsh. my most worthy Friend and Benefactour, Mr. John Bowle, Doctor of Divinitie, and Deane of Salisbury," in which he mentions "the fatherly care" he had experienced from that divine, "when he was at Kensington, in the house of that most vertuous and literate Lady, the Lady Coppen." "By your indeficient liberalitie," he says, "all defects were supplyed, all difficulties remooved, horses provided, a man appointed, and, _to conclude_, by the grace of God, after many a troublesome and wearysome step, to my rest I returned." The _second_ Dedication is, "To the Right Worshipp. vertuous and learned Lady, the Lady Coppen, Mr R. Coppen, Mr T. Coppen, her Sonnes; M'ris Elizabeth Coppen, her Daughter-in-Law, &c., Internall, Externall, Eternall Happiness." In this he records, that "scarce had he entered her doores at Kensington, but he was saluted and made welcome by a gentlewoman well deserving at his hands, whose name must not be concealed, M'ris Francis Thorowgood, who hasted to carrie news to your Ladyship. _Dixirat et dicto citius._ Hereupon your Ladyship," he adds, "was pleased, out of hand, leaving all other business, not to send to mee, but to descend yourself to mee; not so much by the degrees of staires, as by a naturall inclination to show your hospitality," &c.; and speaks of her as understanding "the scholler's Languages as well as they that do profess them;" and as being "highly honoured by Queene Elizabeth." The _third_ Dedication is "To the Right Worship. my most munificent Friend, Sir John Hanburie, of Kelmash, in Northamptonshire." The _fourth_, "To the Worsh. my very worthy Friends, M'r William Bonham (of Paternoster Rowe, in London), and M'ris Anne Bonham, his Wife, Mr. Nathaniell Henshawe, of Valence, in Essex; M'r Benjamin Henshawe, of Cheapside, in London; and M'r Thomas Henshawe, of Saffron Walden, in Essex." The _third_ Dedication is dated from _Lutterworth_, in _Leicestershire_, May 10: the others from _King's Coll._, June 12, 1627. C. W. B.
