These  volumes  contain  the  historical  works  of  Gerald  du  Barry,  who  lived  in  the  reigns
of  Henry  II.,  Richard  I.,  and  John.  His  works  are  of  a  very  miscellaneous  nature,  both
in  prose  and  verse,  and  are  reuiarkable  for  the  anecdotes  which  they  contain.
The  Topographia  Hibernica  (in  Vol.  V.)  is  the  result  of  Giraldus'  two  visits  to  Ireland
the  first  in  118,3,  the  second  in  1185-6,  when  he  accompanied  Prince  John  into  that  country.
The  Expugnatio  Hibernica  was  written  about  1188,  and  may  be  regarded  rather  as  a  great
epic  than  a  sober  relation  of  acts  occurring  in  his  own  days.  Vol.  VI.  contains  the  Itine-
rarium  Kambria  et  DescHptio  Kambrim ;  and  Vol.  VII.,  the  lives  of  S.  Eemigius  and
