James I Dedication Translation |
| Notes: | Biblical epigraph on title page: 2 Peter 1:10: 'Give diligent heede to make your calling and election sure.' 4-page dedication: 'The Author's Epistle to the Most High and Mightie Prince, James the sixt, now by God's free mercie, King of England, Scotland, France, and Ireland'. This epistle is signed by Rollock, who died in 1599. The dedication in this edition is a translation of the Latin dedication to James that appeared in Rollock's original Latin work ['Tractus de vocatione efficaci' (STC 21285)]. This 1603 translation is by the Calvinist priest Henry Holland. The reference to James now being king of England is Holland's addition to Rollock's Latin. |
