PUCKELL's (Stev.) true table of all such fees as are due to the bishop of London, and all his depending officers, as commissaries, registers, proctors, and apparitors, as have been given in to his Majesty's commissioners, under their own hands, in Nov. 1630. Whereto is added, a true discovery of such fees ordinarily exacted by them, contrary to their own table, and the statute laws of this land, published as a love token for his country's good, 4to.

1631, 2 s. 131. PUFFENDORF's law of nature, abridged by Spavan, 2 vols. 8vo.

J. Rastell also composed a table to the book of assizes, printed with the later editions of that book; he appears also to have had some concern in the first printing of Fitzherbert's abr. V. Herbert's edit. of Ames, vol. i. and also Dibden's edit. of Ames, vol. 3. p. 84.

In this abridgment, the more obsolete titles of the law in Fitzherbert and Brooke are omitted; but besides the printed books extant in Lord Rolle's time, it abridges many of the parliament rolls and other authentic records, and contains a number of cases that came under the author's observation (being several years, during the usurpation, chief justice of the king's bench) which are not to be found in his reports, nor are elsewhere reported. Mr. Hargrave,

in notes on Co. Lit. 9. a. mentions this work as excellent in its kind; and in point of method, succinctness, legal precision, and many other respects, fit to be proposed as an example for other abridgments of the law. Rolle's method and arrangement have

been adopted by D'Anvers and Viner.

This abridgment contains the cases down to the end of the reign of Hen.
