The Manuscript, some 70 pages long, appears in common-place book, also containing some of Tillotson's sermons, and is an authentic holograph, dat­ing from about 1675. It was published in a substantially revised form by Glanvill as "Anti-Fanatical Religion and Free Philosophy," the last essay in his Essays (see below, section 3). J. I. Cope has published extracts from some parts of it which did not appear in the final "Essay", including a short 'biog­raphy' of More, copied out in "A kind tho' vaine attempt" listed above (see below, section 4).

224 Robert Crocker

CSPW, with additional scholia and DD, was translated into Latin, and pub­lished in Opera, 2 (1679). The first edition of CSPW (1662) is entitled the 'second,' since it is the second edition of the majority of the works it contains. The Latin version in Opera (1679) is taken to be the 'third' and the second English edition of CSPW (1712) becomes the 'fourth. Each work has a sep­arate title-page and pagination.

A Collection of Several Philosophical Writings ... The Fourth Edition, corrected and much enlarged. London: J. Downing, 1712. A reissue with corrections from the Latin edition but without DD in 1713 [1712] The date of the last two works is 1713, though that on the main one reads '1712'.

London, J. Flesher, and for W. Morden in Cambridge, 1664. Includes:

Synopsis Prophetica; or, The Second Part of the Enquiry into the Mystery of Iniquity: Containing a Compendious Prospect into those Prophecies of the Holy Scripture, wherein The Reign of Antichrist, or The notorious Lapse or Degeneracy of the Church in all those Points comprosed in the Idea of Anti­christianism, is prefigured or foretold.

(Amsterdam: J. de Zetter, 1679), another one from London, 1686, another from Amsterdam in 1695, and two more from Lon­don 1701 and 1711. There may also be others.

226 Robert Crocker

1669. This appeared in Latin in Opera (1675), and was reissued in English in TW (1708). The Brief Discourse of Idolatry became More's Antidote against Idolatry which was published in his Brief Reply to a late Answer (1672) with an Appendix, and was then translated into Latin for Opera, 1 (1675), and finally appeared in English again in TW (1708).

London: J. Flesher, for W. Morden in Cambridge, 1671. This was reissued with scholia in Opera, 2 (1679). Chapters 27 & 28 were translated by More and inserted into his edition of Glanvil's Saducismus Triumphatus (1681 and subsequent editions), as The Easie, True and Genuine Notion ... of a Spirit. See below. There was also a German translation by 'Christian Rautner' [CO Knorr von Rosenroth], Enchiridion Metaphysicum­... Von unkorperlichen Dingen in der Welt, wider Cartesium (Frankfurt and Leipzig, 1680).

1672 A Brief Reply to a Late Answer to Dr. Henry More his Antidote against Idolatry. Shewing that there is nothing in the said Answer that does any ways weaken his Proofs of Idolatry against the Church of Rome, and therefore all are bound to take heed how they enter into, or continue in the Communion of that Church as they tender their own Salvation. London: J. Redmayne for W. Ket­tilby, 1672. This includes the text of Antidote against Idolatry, and is followed by An Appendix to the late Antidote against Idolatry. The Antidote appeared again in Latin in Opera, 1 (1675), and then in English in TW (1708).

?1675 De Anima ejusque Facultatibus. London, 1675. This is supposedly a Latin translation of an earlier English refutation of Descartes, but its whereabouts is now unknown. It appears in R. Watt, Bibliotheca Britannica (Edinburgh, 1824),2: 682n. Watt also lists a second, separate edition: De anima ejusque facultatibus (Rotterdam, 1677). See also note 3, below.

A Bibliography of Henry More 247

3. According to Gaston Grua, there is also a French manuscript translation by Pierre Briot, made in 1677 and used by Leibniz. Grua also mentions a Latin abridgement of IS entitled De anima eiusque facultatibus made by Knorr von Rosenroth and published by Van Helmont in 1677. See G. W. Leibniz, Textes inMits, 2 vols. (Paris: Presses Universitaires de France, 1948), 2:509. 4. This part of a manuscript by Glanvill contains the first brief biography of More, which was later omitted when it was eventually published as one of the Essays on Several Important Sub­jects (1676). It was circulated separately in manuscript as "A Kind tho' vaine attempt" (listed above, section I).
