Be sure to click through the sevens continuation links at the bottom right of the page. This is the first one:
E. Cobham Brewer 1810–1897. Dictionary of Phrase and Fable. 1898.
Seven Bibles (The) or Sacred Books.
(1) The Bible of Christians. (Canon completed A.D. 494; Old Testament as we have it, B.C. 130.)
(2) The Eddas of the Scandinavians.
(3) The Five Kings of the Chinese. “King” here means web-of-cloth on which they were
originally written.
(4) The Koran of the Mohammedans. (Seventh century, A.D.)
(5) The Tri Pitikes of the Buddhists. (Sixth century B.C.)
(6) The Three Vedas of the Hindûs. (Twelfth century B.C.)
(7) Zendavesta of the Persians. (Twelfth century B.C.)
The Eddas of the Scandinavians really piques my interest since I'm unfamiliar with it. I'll be researching. In the meantime, if anyone has something on this, please share.
