was one of the most considerable generals of his time; he having served for thirty-five years in the Netherlands, the best school for war in this age. He had the command of the English forces at the battle of Newport, and was, in the beginning of the next reign, admiral of the fleet sent against Cadiz. This expedition was attended with some disgrace; as the fleet arrived at that place too late in the year for action, and returned without effectuating any thing. He was, by Charles I. created viscount Wimbleton. Ob. 16 Nov. 1638.

"To Frankenthal when siege Cordoua laid,

So was our British king-craft over-knaved
By Gondomar, as in it martyr made

This honourable cadet; and so stav'd

Off all recruits, that Burroughs their commander,

Our glorious Burroughs, was compell'd to render."

GULIELMUS FAIRFAX, &c. four Latin verses; 8vo. (Droeshout.)

Captain William Fairfax was one of the brave officers who lost their lives at the siege of Frankendale, in attempting impossi bilities; who, without hope of success, fought with all the ardour of the most determined courage, actuated by a prospect of victory.

SIR HENRY RICH, captain to the guard, &c. W. Pass sc. 4to. Sold by Thomas Jenner; scarce.

The handsome person of this gentleman attracted the notice of King James, who created him baron of Kensington, and earl of Holland. He greatly improved the fine old house at Kensington, called after his name. It was the seat of Sir Anthony Cope, whose

sister he married.

*Frankendale.

"Great Moguls Landlord, of both Indies King,
Whose self-admiring fame doth loudly ring;
Writes fourscore Years, more Kingdoms he hath right to,
The Stars say so, and for them he will fight too:
And though this worthlefs Age, will not believe him,
But clatter, spatter, slander, scoff, to grieve him;

Yet He and all the World in this agree,

That such another Toole will never be."
