Two POLITICAL TREATISES, viz. : (a) on the advantages of preserving an alliance with the Netherlands as against Spain, and (b) on the expediency of making peace or war with Spain. ff. 1, 10 b. Both treatises, which are written in letter-form and addressed to James I., are manifestly by one author, though to the one the name of John Atkins is appended, and to the other that of John Atkinson. Of the first there is another copy in Harley MS.
168, f. 208, where, however, it is ascribed to John Askham. In the Calendar of State Papers, 1603-1610, p. 18, under the date June (?), 1603, is a letter from John Atkinson to tho King introducing "a discourse porsuading him to join in amity with the Hollanders and to set upon Spain." This is probably identical with tho first treatise in our MS. According to a note (f. 24 b) by Sir Peter Manwood [Sheriff of Kent in 1603] the MS. is in the hand of his " man, Crispe." Paper; ff. 24. In vellum covers, with tooled centre-piece, etc. ; with the note on f. 1, " the price of bindings 48 17th of Marche, 1610 [1]." Folio.
