[The preface of bishop James Montagu to the Works of King James I, as published in 1616, to which the following title is prefixed by Le Neve: —] "Whether it may suit with the majestie of a King to be a writer of books or not", c. 1616
Rawlinson incorrectly notes that "this is Bp. Andrews’ preface"; but appears to be right in adding, "and probably the very copy from which it was printed".
