— diags.—R.H. : "The First[-Third] Part of the Swedish Discipline."--The account of the Battle of Leipsic affixed to the 3rd pt. has separate pag. but continuous sigs.—Sigs. in 4% A-M, Aa-Ffz. Copies. B.M. Contents. The first part of the " Swedish Discipline"—the "Formes of Prayer " —is a translation from the " Arma Suecica." ' Copies of it, from the same set-up, had been sent out separately by Butter and Bourne shortly before, under the title, " The Devotions and formes of prayer, . . . Being the first part of our intended Booke concerning the Swedish Discipline ", in order to forestall a rival printer, who was about to issue another translation. This is the first of a series of fifteen pamphlets relating to the Thirty Years* War, all printed by Butter and Bourne, and appearing under various titles between 1632 and 1639, as follows: The Swedish Discipline. The Swedish Intelligencer.—Four Parts. A Continuation of the German History.—The Fifth Part. A History of the present Warres of Germany.—A Sixth Part. A Supplement to the Sixth Part of the Germane History. The German History continued.—The Seventh Part. "All which is done not by the former but another author." The Modern History of the World.—The Eighth Part. The Principall Passages of Germany etc. [No. i .] The Continuation of the Actions etc. ... in the Upper Germanie. [No. 2.] Diatelesma. The Moderne History of the World. [No. 3.] Diatelesma. The second part of the Moderne History of the World. [No. 4.] Diatelesma : the fifth part. [No. 5.] " A Continuation, etc. . . . The Fifth Part " and the " Supplement to the Sixth Part " are from Hazlitt ; the others are in the B.M. The earlier numbers are by the author of the " Discipline," and, like that, were issued anonymously ; the Seventh Part is said on the title-page to be done "not by the former but another author", signing himself in the Preface " N. C", who continued the series. A copy in the B.M. of the 2nd ed. of Pt. I. of the "Swedish Intelligencer" bears the words, "By Sir Tho. Roe", in a contemporary hand, above the imprint. Roe, who had been ambassador to the Sultan from 1621 to 1628, was sent in 1629 to the Swedish King, to whom he suggested the invasion of Germany. He returned to England in 1630, where he lived retired, out of office, and with straitened means, until 1636. He died in 1644. However, Edmund Rossingham, in a letter to Edward, Viscount Conway, April 16, 1639, ascribes the authorship to the learned Dr. Watts, Chaplain to the General of the Forces in the Scotch Expedition of 1639. He writes, "This is [Dr. Watt's] opinion, who has been in the By Arlanibaeus, Frankfort, 1631, 4°; a Continuation, /3., 1632, 4". 98
