NOTES AND QUERIES. [io s. x. OCT. 31, igus.

of the family. On p. 51 he calls the wife of Gilbert Budgell " Mary Ann " Gulston, a suggestion which may clear up the apparent disagreement between Bishop Gulston' s will and the ' D.N.B.' noted by MB. BELLEWES. , It seems strange that a family numbering amongst its descendants such distinguished literary men as Joseph Addison, Eustace Budgell, and John Laurence, has not received more attention. I trust that, now the question has been raised, it will not be allowed to drop. The pedigree printed on the pages quoted above might well be com- mended to Dr. Galton and other students of eugenics.

William Goldson of Wymondham, in his will (undated, proved Leicester 1556), directs burial in Wymondham church or church- yard ; leaves money to the mother church at Lincoln and to the churches of Wymond- ham and Pickwell ; and mentions his wife Johan, his sons Chade, Eustace, Anthony, Richard, Christopher (?), and Thomas, and his daughters Mary, Alice, and Judith. The supervisors are Richard Clark, priest, of Saxby, and the testator's brothers, John and Thomas Goldson.

Eustace Goulston of Somerby and Chadd Goulston of Wymondham are defendants, and Morice Barkley plaintiff, in a Chancery suit concerning the sale of lands at Wymond- ham, 31 Jan., 1562/3 (Chancery Proceedings, Series IT. b. 22, No. 2).

Thomas Gulson of Wymondham, in his will dated 3 Jan., proved (Leicester) 3 Feb., 1577/8, directs burial in Wymondham Church ; leaves money to that church and Lincoln Cathedral ; and mentions his wife Elizabeth, his eldest son William, his sons Henry, Humphry, and Matthew, his youngest son John, and his daughters Helen, Bridget, Margerie, Elizabeth, Johan, and Mary. His brother Matthew Gulson, Edward Roose, Thomas Herd, and Richard Taylor are ap- pointed trustees. A. S. L.

SEVENTEENTH-CENTURY QUOTATIONS (10 S. x. 127, 270).!. The best collection of examples to illustrate Antiperistasis is given in the ' Stanford Dictionary of Anglicised Words and Phrases.'

5. ' Quod reges Indorum,' &c. These lines are from Petrus Angelius's ' Cynegetica,' ii. 288-91. They follow immediately after the quotatipn in 17. Liquantia should be liquentia, and Actum (as H. K. ST. J. S. observes) Ac turn. For Petro Angelio in my reply on 17 read Pietro.

26. The passage meant is apparently this : " Accedebat, quod alter decimum iam prope annum adsiduus in oculis hominum fuerat, quae res minus verendos magnos homines- ipsa satietate facit " (xxxv. 10, 6). Livy is speaking of Scipio Africanus the younger. Matthias Bernegger (1582-1640) in a note- on Justinus i. 9, where the seclusion of the- Persian kings is mentioned, quotes the pas- sage thus : " Continuus aspectus minus verendos homines ipsa satietate facit "" (p. 45 in Abraham Gronovius's variorum edition of Justinus, 1760).

35. Continet need not be changed to conterit. Both have MS. authority, and,, though Schneidewin and Gilbert adopt the- latter, continet must have been in the text used by our seventeenth-century writer. One of the difficulties in dealing with the- classical quotations in older English authors; is that the Latin texts before them differed in so many points from ours. Aestu in my answer to 22 should be cestus.

Under 11 pulchritudo mundi should be- inserted after generi, and que after ordo.

The date of the edition of Seneca in 34 should be 1902. EDWARD BENSLY.

CLERGY IN WIGS (10 S. viii. 149, 214 ; ix. 497 ; x. 16, 78, 158). The latest example- of an English bishop wearing a wig given in recent issues of ' N. & Q.' seems to be that of Archbishop Sumner in 1856. The Athe- nceum of 5 Nov., 1904, p. 623, records a case- of Sumner at a levee in 1857 ; and of Dr.. Turton, Bishop of Ely, at an ordination in 1861. U. J. D.

STORY'S ' V^E VICTIS ' (10 S. ix. 449). Is your correspondent certain that he has. the right title ? In ' Poems by William Wetmore Story,' published by Houghton,. Mifflin & Co., Boston, 1886, vol."ii. pp. 177-8,. will be found a poem called ' Io Victis ! ' The first two lines are as follows :

I sing the hymn of the conquered, who fell in the-

Battle of Life,

The hymn of the wounded, the beaten, \vho died overwhelmed in the strife.
