With reference to the query about Zhukovsky's Russian translation of Gray's ' Elegy,' may I refer to my note on the subject at 10 S. v. 357 ?

FRANCIS P. MARCHANT.

V. A. Zhukovsky's version of Gray's ' Elegy,' mentioned ante, p. 64, is in most of the reading books recommended by the Russian Minister of Education. It is usually among the poems selected for the pupils to learn by heart. In most Russian antho- logies this translation is to be found.

The Italian translations by Cesarotti and by Torelli, referred to on p. 63, and the Latin version by Costa (ibid.), were repub- lished at Parma in 1793 in a quarto volume entitled * Elegia inglese sopra un Cimitero campestre, con due vers. italiane di G. Torelli, Melch. Cesarotti, ed altra lat. di G. Costa.' This edition is mentioned in the ' Dictionnaire Bibliographique,' published in Paris in 1824.

Perhaps Count Algarotti (1712-64), a friend of Gray and admirer of his poetry, translated the ' Elegy ' into Italian. His complete works were published in 1811 at Venice in seventeen volumes, and reprinted in 1891-4. H. G. WARD.

THE PRINCE OF WALES AS CHURCH- WARDEN. King Edward VII., when Prince of W T ales, was the first heir apparent to the throne to be admitted a churchwarden. The Rev. T. T. Perowne, Rector of Reden- hall, Norfolk, had the unique honour of admitting the Prince officially to the churchwardenship of Sandringham, and the Archdeacon's Articles of Inquiry were always signed by his Royal Highness. The Prince acted as Minister's Churchwarden, with Sir Dighton Probyn as his colleague. Certainly no parish in England ever before had the heir apparent for its churchwarden. FREDERICK T. HIBGAME.

KEATS, HAMPSTEAD, AND SIR C. W. DILKE. Reference has been already made in 'N & Q.' (9 S. ii. 90, 167) to the poet's asso- ciations with this salubrious suburb. It is interesting to learn that the unique collection of relics formed by the late Sir Charles
