Description
Scope/Content: Manuscript. Includes address to the reader, signed "Thine in the love of God, Edward Topsell."
Scope/Content: Manuscript volume containing two soliloquies by Edward Topsell, as well as miscellaneous other theological items and a sermon delivered by an unknown person in 1638. This volume is not in Topsell's hand and it is unclear exactly when it was compiled. Two soliloquies was registered July 23, 1610 in the Stationers' Register, but no printed versions are known, so it is possible they were never actually published as planned. A file of notes on this manuscript, written by F.D. Honiger in 1964, is available in the Clark Library's manuscript clippings file.
Condition: Bound in full vellum.
