Summary
Chiefly commemorative poems and epigrams dedicated to James I, with a few autograph corrections and an autograph sheet initialed is laid in at the beginning of the volume. A note of ca. 1750 states that the last part of the dedication, already missing from the volume, "was sign'd Johannes Ross, of Reed near Bury St. Edmund's. 1605," and that his great grandson Thomas Ross, rector of Helmingham, Suffolk (d. 1733), left his books to [Joseph] Brereton of that parish. Actually, the Parerga is by John Ross of the Inner Temple whose manuscript of Britannica is at the Bodleian Library. See Notes and Queries, 233, No. 4 (December 1988), p. 446-447, and R.F. Hardin's edition and translation of the manuscript in Poems on events of the day ... 1991
