In the annals of Greet f. ritiiii it has never till
now happened that the sceptre of these realists lass
been swayed by four successive Ibitiarchs of the
same name. The brit instance of the kind is found
in the accession of GEOPILGIS IV. Since the Conquest
it has occurred but twice that three Sovereigns of
the same tisane have reigned in successive. The
First, Second, cud Third EDWARDS, were likely to
be succeeded by a Fourth, when the hue was inter-
rupted by the premature death of the Black Prince,
and RICHARD 11. ascended the throne of has grand-
hither. After he was deposed by the Duke of LAN.
CASTER, HENRY IV. HENRY V. and HENRY VI.
were the next Kings of Englund. The troubles
which, ter 11l i l isted the reign stud the life of the I•st
ill.f.ted Monarch are but too well known. The
succession was again interrupted. and EDWARD
of York reigned under the title of EDWARD
A son of the same name succeeded hint, but was
murdered before he was crowned, and since that
period it was only in the cases of HENRY VII.
and HENRY VIII., and of CHARLES I. and 11.,
that two Monarchs of the same name reigned in
succession, till happily the offspring of SOPIIIA
of Hanover came to rule these Kingdom*, and
give us four Geunces.

which was received by the High Sheriff of North-
umberland in the year 1813
