GERVASE MARKHAM.

A gentleman who lived in the reign of Charles I. for whom he took up
arms in the time of the rebellion, being honoured by his Majesty with
a captain's commission.[1] He was the son of Robert Markham, of Cotham
in the county of Nottingham, Esq; and was famous for his numerous
volumes of husbandry, and horsemanship; besides what he has wrote on
rural recreations and military discipline, he understood both the
practice and theory of war, and was esteemed an excellent linguist,
being master of the French, Italian, and Spanish languages, from all
which he collected observations on husbandry. One piece of dramatic
poetry which he has published, says Mr. Langbaine, will shew, that he
sacrificed to Apollo and the Muses, as well as Mars and Pallas. This
play is extant under the title of Herod and Antipater, a
tragedy, printed 4to, 1622; when or where this play was acted,
Mr. Langbaine cannot determine; for, says he, the imperfection
of my copy hinders my information; for the foundation, it
is built on history: See Josephus. Mr. Langbaine then proceeds to
enumerate his other works, which he says, are famous over all England;
of these he has wrote a discourse of Horsemanship, printed 4to.

James I. Cure of all Diseases incident to Horses, 4to. 1610. English
