Essays of Sir William Cornwallis MP (the younger) 1632.
I love that he's shown studying on one side and then writing on the other.

Cornwallis was on Essex's Irish campaign of 1599. A friend of John Donne, he died in 1614.

On Cornwall's Bodmin Moor is the bottomless Dozmary Pool where King Arthur's knight, honouring Arthur's will, cast away Excalibur. A female arm rose from the water, clasped the sword & sank back beneath the surface.
Excalibur lies there still, in the cold, black, lifeless lake.
