Adam Littleton was the most reputable Latin lexicographer in 17th century England.  His 1678 edition of his ''A Latine Dictionary in Four Parts'' was succeeded by an even more reputably considered improved edition published at Cambridge in 1693.  <ref>“A New and Copious Lexicon of the Latin Language; Compiled Chiefly from the "Magnum Totius Latinitatis Lexicon" of Facciolati and Forcellini, and the German Works of Scheller and Luenemann by Scheller, Luenemann, F. P. Leverett,” ''The North American Review'' 45, no.97 (Oct. 1837): 339.</ref>  For the purposes of the later published edition, the editors utilized “a manuscript collection of authorities from Roman authors, in three volumes, folio, by John Milton.”  [Ibid.]
