Evelyn's translating and sending me as a present, about directions for gathering a Library; Evelyn, Esquire. London, 1661: This little book was dedicated to Lord Clarendon by the translator. It was printed while Evelyn was abroad, and is full of typographical errors; these are corrected in a copy mentioned in Evelyn's "Miscellaneous Writings," 1825, p. xii, where a letter to Dr.
"Lord Vargrave again?" and Evelyn's smile vanished, and she turned away. "Ah," said Caroline, "I should have made Vargrave an excellent wife pity he does not think so!
