_The Buckingham Motto_ (No. 9. p. 138., and No. 16. p. 252.).--On
examining the original manuscript the true reading of this motto appears
to me to be,
Sovente me sovene,
Harre Bokynghame.
I should translate it, "souvent me souvenez;" an Anglo-French paraphrase
of "sis memor mei;" or, "Ne m'oubliez pas." I have great doubt {284}
whether the original MS. can be safely assumed to be an _autograph_.
