Hitherto I haue set foorth the catalog of the kings of Britaine,

in such sort as it is to be collected out of the most ancient

histories, monuments and records of the land. Now I will

set foorth the order and succession of the Romane legates or

deputies, as I haue borowed them first out of Tacitus, then

Dion, and others: howbeit I cannot warrant the iust course of

them from Iulius Agricola forward, bicause there is no man that

reherseth them orderlie. Yet by this my dooing herein, I hope

some better table may be framed hereafter by other, wherof I

would be glad to vnderstand when soeuer it shall please God that

it may come to passe.
