Great Primer Roman. Contents:—( ) 1^r, title: 2^r-4^r, the Latin poem,
at end “_Faciebat R.A._”
A Latin hexameter poem on the death of sir Thomas Reid, of whom I do
not readily find any account. No part of this was printed in Oxford,
the woodcuts and type being unknown there: even the small device of
the Arms of the University on the titlepage (which has caused this
work to be ascribed to the Oxford Press) differs from the genuine one.
No doubt the book was printed in London.

See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 424. The book was entered at Stationers’
Hall to Will. Turner, 18 July 1623. The author, whose initials only
occur in the book, was at this time bishop of Chichester: the editor
Vicars had married the bishop’s daughter. Sir Chr. Heydon’s book was
published in 1603 at Cambridge, and a second book by him on Astrology
published in 1650 was followed by a reprint of the present work in
1651.
