| Description and content: | Meric Casaubon's A True and Faithful Relation... is mainly a transcription of the Dee and Kelley materials in British Museum MSS Cotton Appendix XLVI, parts I and II. Although some of the sectional titles are not exact to the manuscript, and there are other transcription errors, this 17th century book was prepared at a time when the manuscripts were in better condition than they are today. Portions of Casaubon's text and illustrations are taken from other Dee and Kelley MSS. Except for the Latin sectional heads and portions in Enochian the text is in English.
