_Speculum Christianorum, &c._ (Vol. v., p. 558.).--In case no fuller

information should be forthcoming on this tract, allow me to refer MR.

SIMPSON to Ames's _Typographical Dictionary_, p. 113., where is an account

of what is apparently another edition of the above, printed by William

Machlinia, or Macklyn, about the year 1480. The title runs thus: _Incipit

liber qui vocatur Speculum Xpristiani_. It is a short exposition of the

common topics of divinity of that time, for the most part in Latin, but

there is some English which is chiefly in rhyme. The first English lines

are--

"In heauen shall dwelle alle cristen men

That knowe and kepe goddes byddynges ten."
