- Notes:
- A leaf from William Camden's "Annalles of Elizabeth", or more accurately from Darcie's translation from a French translation from the Latin of Camden's original work. It was printed for Benjamin Fisher in 1625, in London. The body of the page is roman type, using italics as an accessory. Though it was printed a quarter of a century after Queen Elizabeth's death, the book has an Elizabethan flair to it. This leaf is marked 127 on the recto side and 128 on the verso side.
