Evelyn had likewise etched [see ante, p. 359 n.], when he came to Paris from Italy, five several Prospects of Places which he had drawn on the spot between Rome and Naples, to which he prefixed also a frontispiece, intituled,

"Locorum aliquot insignium et celeberrimorum inter Romam et Neapolin jacentium, vodeges et exemplaria.

"Domino Dom. Thomæ Hensheaw Anglo, omnium eximiarum et præclarissimarum Artium Cultori ac propugnatori maximo, et ovvofáμevy ávτ (non propter Operis pretium, sed ut singulare Amoris sui Testimonium exhibeat) primas has adokipao ías Aquâ forti excusas et insculptas, Jo. Evelynus Delineator D. D. C. Q." R. Hoare excud.1

I. Tres Tabernæ sive Appii Forum, celebre illud, in sacris Litteris. Act. 28.

II. Terracini, olim Anxuris, Promontorium.

III. Prospectus versùs Neapolin, a Monte Vesuvio.

IV. Montis Vesuvii Fauces: et Vorago, sive Barathrum internum.

V. Montis Vesuvii juxta Neapolin externa Facies.

He etched also a View of his own Seat at Wotton, then in the possession of his brother, George Evelyn (ante, vol. ii. p. 65); and Putney ad Ripam Tamesis-corrected on one impression, by himself, to Battersea (see vol. ii. p. 13).

1 [According to Walpole's Catalogue of Engravers (Dallaway's ed., 1828, pp. 174-77), this only means that the plates, executed at Paris in 1649, were "taken off" by R. Hoare (see ante, vol. ii. p. 14). There are other etchings at the British Museum; and from a letter to Pepys, dated 20th January, 1668, it seems that Evelyn also made a " Prospect of Medway, while the Hollander rode master in it," from the hill above Gillingham. The original sketch-says Mynors Bright—is in the Bodleian.]
