   Exploring themes of burial practices and ancient horticulture, this collection features two significant works from 1658. The first discusses sepulchral urns discovered in Norfolk, while the second examines the symbolic and practical aspects of ancient garden designs, focusing on quincuncial and network patterns. Presented in Old English, the text reflects the historical context of its time, though some pages may show signs of wear due to the age of the originals.

  Edited by Frank L. Huntley, this volume pairs the complete texts of both "Hydriotaphia (Urn Burial)" and "The Garden of Cyrus" published together (as they were in the original edition in 1658). With modernized spelling, punctuation, and an ample glossary, this edition is also extremely well annotated and includes an introduction, a list of principal dates in the life of Sir Thomas Browne, and a bibliography.
