 TJic CatJiolic Reformation 195 The Autobiography of St. Ignatius Loyola, edited by J. F. X. O'Conor, S.J., New York, 1900. A translation of the most authen- tic account of Loyola's life, from data he himself dictated. Canons and Decrees of the Council of Trent, translated by Rev. J. Waterworth ; and Catechism of the Council of Trent, translated by Rev. J. Donovan. It is scarcely necessary to say that these official utter- ances of the council deserve the most careful study. 1 The catechism was first issued in 1566. It was drawn up by a commission appointed by the pope, to whom the matter had been delegated by the council. Armstrong, The French Wars of Religion, 1892. Whitehead, A. W., Caspar d de Coligny, Admiral of France, 1904. Sully, Memoirs, 4 vols. (Bohn Library). This is not a translation of the original as dictated by Sully, but of an adaptation made in the eighteenth century to suit the taste of the time. See below, under C. Creighton, The Age of Elizabeth (in the Epochs of Modern History). Also by the same, Queen Elizabeth, 1896 ; cheaper edition, without illustrations, 1899. These excellent volumes may be supplemented by Beesley, Elizabeth. Lang, Andrew, The Mystery of Mary Stuart, 1901. A recent review of all the evidence of her guilt in the murder of her husband.

Stow (1525-1605), A Survey of London, first published in 1598; Harrison (1534-1593), Description of England (convenient edition in the Camelot Series). These are two important and amusing accounts of English habits and dress by contemporaries. Saintsbury, Elizabethan Literature, a useful short work on a great subject.
