Oxford's Additions to Holinshed
I was initially drawn to additions by Abraham Fleming, Oxford’s personal secretary [OV, pp. 1714/5] which are introduced with ver words: verie, truelie, truth, veries, everie; and which contain Latin inscriptions by Ovid, Juvenal and Virgil amongst others. I also noticed similar patterns in anonymous additions. Additions by Francis Thinn (Thynne) were unsimilar and lacked the lyricy of language to be Oxford’s.
