26 6o B. c* In 1663 a genuine fragment of Petronius wa found at Trau in Dalmatia ; this was speedily followed by a forged one published by Nodot in 1694 as the discovery of an officer at Belgrade.

The examination of the printer, Royston, before the Council of State, shows that it was originally intended to issue it, under the title of Suspiria Regalia, or The King's Plea, during the trial of Charles I, in the hope of influencing public opinion in his favour. It must have been carefully designed to this end. The body of the book consists in a retrospect, apparently by the king's own hand, of the events since the calling of his last Parliament.
