"Let these two productions be carefully compared, and I am quite content to abide the result, as regards any difference be tween Mr. Shirley and myself."-ROBERT VAUGHAN: Lon. Athen., 1861, i. 529. "The Rev. W. W. Shirley's account of Wyclif recently published (Fasciculus Zizaniorum) is full of errors."-ROBERT VAUGHAN: Revolutions in Eng. History, vol. i., 1859. Vaughan's volume, we remark enough errors among them to "Though comparatively few names or dates occur in Dr. lay him open, in a measure, to his own censure on Mr. Shirley." Lon. Gent. Mag., 1859, i. 135: Revolutions in English History, vol. i. Mr. Shirley has since favoured us with a Catalogue of the Original Works of John Wielif, Oxford, Clarendon Press, 1865, 8vo. He projects a complete edition of Wycliffe's English works, with a selection from his Latin works. The Early English Text Society had intended to issue Wycliffe's Sharp Treatises against the Friars in the library of Corpus Christi College, but it has yielded the whole field to Mr. Shirley, who, we presume, will avail himself of the vellum MS. discovered at Vienna in 1863, containing fifty treatises in Latin by Wycliffe, one of which, De Officio Pastorale, was published by Professor Lechner in 1863. See, also, Wiclif, Trialogus cum Supp. Trialogi, by G. Lechler, 1869, Svo. We had almost forgotten to state that some of Wycliffe's English treatises were disposed of at the sale of Archbishop Tenison's MSS., July 1, 1861, for £37 10s. Some years ago, one of his warmest admirers complained: "To the memory of Wyclif-one of the greatest of Englishmen-his country has been singularly and painfully ungrateful. Of his works, the greatest-the Trialogus, one of the most thoughtful of the middle ages-has twice been printed abroad, in England never. Of his original English works nothing beyond one or two tracts (the 'General Prologue to the Bible' and 'Wyeliffe's Wychet') have seen the light. If considered only as the father of English prose, the great reformer might claim more reverential treatment at our hands. subsequent events that we see the greatness of Wyclif as a reAs it is in the light of former, so it is from the later growth of the language that we best learn to appreciate the beauty of his writings. But it was less the reformer, or the master of English prose, than the great schoolman, that inspired the respect of his contempora ries; and next to the deep influence of his personal holiness, and the attractive greatness of his moral character, it was to his supreme command of the weapons of scholastic discussion that he owed his astonishing influence."-REV.
