Works

Bryan published a sermon on the election of the lord mayor in 1718, and just before his death he had finished the printing of an edition of Plutarch's Lives. It was completed by Moses du Soul, and was published under the title of Plutarchi Chæronensis Vitæ Parallelæ, cum singulis aliquot. Græce et Latine. Adduntur variantes Lectiones ex MSS. Codd. Veteres et Novæ, Doctorum Virorum Notæ et Emendationes, et Indices accuratissimi, 5 vols., London, 1723–9. It contains heads of the illustrious persons, engraved from gems. The Greek text is printed from the Paris edition of 1624, with a few corrections, and the Latin translation is also mainly adopted from that edition.{{sfn|Cooper|1886}}
