in Basilica Emblemata totum uersum, singula suis iconibus et tetrastichis Latinis donata. Authore Henrico Peachamo': three books of emblems illustrating the Basilicon Doron of James I, containing respectively nineteen, forty-three, and sixteen water-colour drawings, each with an elegiac quatrain and in most cases a quotation from the royal treatise. Preface addressed to Henry [Frederic], Prince of Wales, whose arms are prefixed (f. 12 b) to book ii. For the author, M.A. of Trinity College, Cambridge, 1598, poet and artist, see Dict. Nat.
