Rh cursive account of his friends and foes, and has acquired more reputation than its intrinsic merits, either as literature or autobiography, deserve. It was reprinted in 1774, with Ashmole's life, and in 1822.

A picture of Lilly, æt. 45, is in the Ashmolean Museum at Oxford. An engraving by Marshall is prefixed to ‘Christian Astrology,’ 1647. Other engravings, some by Cross, Hollar, and Vaughan, appear in many of the almanacs (cf. those for 1650, æt. 48, 1653, 1667, and 1687).

Besides his thirty-six almanacs (1647–82) and the works mentioned, he published: 1. ‘Collections of Prophecies,’ 1646. 2. ‘The World's Catastrophe, or Europe's many mutations untill 1666,’ 1647; a ‘Whip for Wharton’ is added; some copies also include Ashmole's translations of ‘The Prophecies of Ambrose Merlin, with a Key,’ and ‘Trithemius, or the Government of the World by presiding Angels.’ 3. ‘An Astrologicall Prediction of the Occurrences in England for the years 1648, 1649, 1650,’ London, 1648, with Hamilton's nativity, and a dedication addressed to the House of Commons. 4. ‘Mr. Lillyes Prognostications of 1667, predicting the Prosperity … of the English and their glorious Victories … by Land and Sea,’ 1667. 5. ‘The dangerous Condition of the United Provinces prognosticated,’ 1672. 6. ‘Mr. Lillies late Prophecy come to pass concerning the present War and the late unseasonableness of the Weather,’ 1673. 7. ‘Mr. Lillies Prophesie of a General Peace,’ 1674. 8. ‘Mr. Lillies Prophecy, or a sober Prediction of a Peace between the French and the Dutch and their Allies,’ 1675. 9. ‘Anima Astrologiæ, or a Guide for Astrologers, being translated from Guido Bonatus, and Cardan's seaven Segments, with a new Table of the Fixed Stars, rectified for several years to come,’ 1676. 10. ‘Mr Lillies Astrological Predictions for 1677, proving the happy Condition of this our Nation for the Year ensuing,’ 1676. 11. ‘Mr. Lillies Prediction concerning the many lamentable Fires which have lately happened, with a full Account of Fires at Home and Abroad,’ 1676. 12. ‘Strange News from the East, or a sober Account of the Comet or blazing Star that has been seen several Mornings of late,’ 1677. 13. ‘Lillies New Prophecy relating to the Year, 1678.’ 14. ‘Fore-Warn'd, Fore-Arm'd, or England's Timely Warning in general, and London's in particular,’ 1682. 15. ‘Catastrophe Mundi, Mr. Lilly's Hieroglyphicks exactly cut,’ 1683, a reissue of the appendix to ‘Monarchy or No Monarchy,’ 1651.

Lilly's name has been unwarrantably affixed to many chapbooks dealing with fortune-telling, the interpretation of dreams, and the like. Of these the best known are the ‘Compleat and universal Book of Fortune,’ London, 1728, 12mo, and ‘A Groat's Worth of Wit for a Penny,’ Newcastle, n.d., 11th edit.

 LILLYWHITE, FREDERICK WILLIAM (1792–1854), cricketer, was born at West Hampnett, near Goodwood, Sussex, 13 June 1792. His father had the management of two large brickfields belonging to the Duke of Richmond, and Frederick was brought up to the trade of a bricklayer. On 12 Dec. 1822 he removed to Brighton and shortly afterwards to Hove, where he became managing man over a large number of brickmakers.

At an early age Lillywhite devoted much leisure to cricket, and in middle life he took a foremost place among professional players. He played his first match at Lord's 18–19 June 1827. No cricketer ever came to Lord's so late in life and afterwards had so long and brilliant a career, lasting upwards of twenty seasons. He was the first bowler of eminence in the round-arm style, which was first introduced by Tom Walker of the Hambledon Club at the end of the last century, but not legalised by the Marylebone Club until 1828. His bowling was slow, marvellous for accuracy of pitch and straightness, and specially remarkable for a very quick rise from the pitch. He was known as the ‘Nonpareil Bowler,’ his average being estimated not to have exceeded seven runs per wicket. There can be no doubt that he was a great bowler who used his brains to much effect. During the whole of his career he did not bowl more than half a dozen wide balls. As a batsman he was not so celebrated, but he frequently scored in the best matches. Twice he went first to the wicket, in 1839 and 1845, and saw the whole side out. In a single match, 5 Aug. 1828, he received 278 balls from the famous bowler George Brown. In 1837 he took the Royal Sovereign Inn, Preston Street, Brighton, to which was attached a cricket-ground. In 1844 he came to London and was engaged as bowler to the Marylebone Cricket Club, where he had a benefit in 1853 and remained to his death. In 1851, 1852, and 1853 he was permitted to attend at Winchester School, where he brought out some good bowlers. With his sons John and
