PREFACE 


It  may  perhaps  be  recollected  that,  nine  years  ago,  the  present 
writer  published  a  Bibliographical  Account  of  Early  English  Litera- 
ture, being  the  earliest  experiment  of  the  kind  made  on  anything 
approaching  to  a  large  and  systematic  scale.  Few  persons,  and 
probably  no  one  of  practical  experience,  were  surprised  to  find 
that  this  work  was  both  incomplete  and  inaccurate ;  and  that  it  was 
so  was  due  to  causes  over  which  the  author  had  only  partial  control. 
Where  a  book  to  be  described  was  not  accessible  to  him  personally, 
it  became  necessary  to  resort  to  secondary  authorities,  all  more  or 
less  treacherous — (1)  transcribers,  (2)  earlier  bibliographical  publi- 
cations, (3)  catalogues.  * 

Even  professional  copyists  are  naturally  not  infallible,  and  the 
mistakes  arising  from  the  necessity  for  employing  them  were  both 
numerous  and  grave ;  but  it  was  not  in  every  case  practicable  to 
secure  the  services  of  such  persons,  and  the  help  of  amateurs  was 
thankfully  accepted. 

Of  my  predecessors  in  the  same  field  of  work  it  becomes  me  at 
the  same  time  to  speak  both  respectfully  and  indulgently,  and  I 
shall  confine  myself  to  the  general  remark  that  Sir  Egerton  Brydges, 
Joseph  Haslewood,  the  editor  of  the  Bibliotheca  Anglo-Poetica,  and 
other  men  of  that  period,  as  well  as  some  of  their  followers,  do  not 
seem  to  have  regarded  it  as  urgent  or  imperative  to  transfer  to  their 
own  pages  the  particulars  of  the  books  which  they  describe  with  that 
literal  exactitude  which  belongs  to  my  plan.     The  consequence  is. 


vi  PREFACE. 

that  where  I  was  led  (from  no  choice  of  my  own)  to  adopt  the 
titles  and  collations  ready-done  (as  it  seemed)  to  my  hand  else- 
where, it  has  proved  no  economy  of  labour  in  the  long  run,  as  the 
whole  ground  has  had  to  be  traversed  again,  and  the  articles  to  be 
rewritten  with  the  volumes  themselves  before  me.^ 

Since  1867  no  undescribed,  or  misdescribed,  book  of  my  class 
has  come  within  my  reach — I  might  almost  say,  has  come  into  the 
market — without  being  examined  and  catalogued,  and  in  this  way 
thousands  of  books  and  tracts  have  passed  under  my  personal 
scrutiny.  In  the  course  of  these  years  much  has  been  added  to  our 
knowledge,  as  well  of  works,  as  of  editions  of  works,  not  previously 
traced  or  recognised.  My  individual  researches,  which  have  been 
almost  incessant,  have  resulted  in  the  verification  of  many  points 
which  were  in  doubt,  and  in  the  discovery  of  much  that  was 
supposed  to  have  perished.  Ex  pede  Herculem — even  a  damaged 
leaf  will  establish  the  existence  at  one  time  of  an  impression,  per- 
haps a  large  one,  of  the  entire  work. 

The  present  is  emphatically  an  intermediate  undertaking.  There 
is  no  pretence  or  attempt  to  furnish,  in  every  case,  either  the  com- 
plete works  of  an  author,  or  all  the  editions  of  his  works,  or  every 
early  English  volume  not  included  in  the  Handbook,  The  following 
pages  represent  the  result  of  nine  years'  laborious  and  steady 
gatherings  from  a  variety  of  quarters,  and,  as  such,  are  submitted 
diffidently  to  the  favour  and  judgment  of  the  public.  These  Col- 
lectanea, which  may  be  considered  as  having  substantially  much 
of  the  value  aud  interest  attached  to  a  descriptive  catalogue  of 
a  particular  library,  have  a  moral  of  their  own,  illustrating  the 
extraordinary  changes  which  have  occurred  in  literary  tastes  and 
opinions,  and  showing  the  prominence  which  was  once  given,  and 
the  value  once  attached,  to  many  hundreds  of  now  forgotten  and 
neglected  authors  or  subjects. 

1  Considerable  mischief  has  been  done  by  persons  who.  under  pretence  of  fur- 
nishing exact  copies  of  old  titles  in  reprints  of  books  and  tracts,  have  departed 
from  their  originals,  not  only  linearly  and  literally,  but  verbally.  Such  is  the  case 
-with  nine-tenths  of  the  reproductions  of  the  last  and  present  century,  and  it  is 
well  that  it  should  l)e  generally  known. 


PREFACE. 


For  years  to  come  (if  he  is  spared)  the  author  has  no  intention 
of  venturing  on  so  gigantic  an  enterprise  as  a  new  edition  of  the 
Handbook  of  Early  English  Literature^  and  assuredly  now  such  an 
attempt  would  have  been  altogether  premature.  It  is  his  wish 
and  design  to  avail  himself  of  every  addition  which  may  be  made 
from  time  to  time  to  our  bibliographical  stores,  and  ultimately  to 
produce  an  entirely  new  and  remodelled  book,  which  may  serve  as  a 
companion  to  an  enlarged  Biograpkia  Britannica,  the  latter  a  scheme 
which  was  entertained  by  the  late  Sir  Frederic  Madden. 

The  volume  now  offered  to  the  public  is  composed  partly  of 
rewritten  matter,  but  chiefly  of  new.  So  far  as  the  rewritten  matter 
is  concerned,  it  cannot  be  too  distinctly  stated  or  understood  that, 
though  it  may  often  appear  to  repeat  what  has  been  already  given 
with  sufficient  copiousness  of  detail,  the  information  has  been 
drawn  from  entirely  independent  sources,  or,  in  other  words,  from 
the  books  described,  instead  of  being  taken  unavoidably  at  second- 
hand. Not  a  single  line  of  the  Handbook  has  been  reprinted  totidem 
verbis,  as  such  a  proceeding  would  have  been  an  unwarranted 
encroachment  on  the  rights  of  the  proprietor  of  that  work. 

It  is  understood,  I  presume,  that  a  bibliographer  does  not  treat  it 
as  part  of  his  duty  to  draw  the  line  of  distinction  too  nicely  between 
productions  of  intrinsic  importance  and  productions  whose  principal 
_  value  lies  in  their  curious  character  and  accidental  scarcity.  But 
P"  I  have  occasionally  pointed  out  cases  where  it  seemed  that  too  great 
a  stress  was  laid  on  mere  rarity  as  a  recommendation,  and  I  think 
that  English  collectors  have  still  a  good  deal  to  learn  in  this  direc- 
tion ;  nor  would  a  Manual,  not  to  be  like  Dibdin's  Library  Com- 
panion, but  to  be  formed  somewhat  on  the  same  plan,  be  ill-timed. 
A  Key  to  the  choice  of  Early  English  Literature,  which  should  give 
sound  and  independent  advice,  and  assist  in  dissipating  the  costly 
illusion  that  everything  in  the  similitude  of  an  old  book  is  valuable, 

I  might  prove  indeed  what  the  Library   Companion  purported  to  be, 
"the  young  man's  guide,  and  the  old  man's  comfort." 
—— 


viii  PREFACE. 


that  of  the  major  part  of  our  present  race  of  collectors  ;  aud  I  like 
to  look  forward  to  the  time  when  buyers  or  fanciers  of  such  things 
will  cultivate  what  is  old,  not  because  it  is  old  and  uncommon,  but 
in  spite  of  its  antiquity  and  uncommonness.  The  aggregation  of 
miscellaneous  assemblages  of  literary  gewgaws  or  emptinesses  by 
undiscerning  persons  is  surely  a  very  unsatisfactory  spectacle.  Buy 
books  if  you  love  books ;  buy  them  if  you  are  a  student — if  you  are 
a  reader;  but,  in  the  name  of  reason,  do  not  buy  them  simply 
because  your  neighbour  does.  That  is  one  of  the  least  wise  forms 
which  flattery  can  take.  The  foundation  and  possession  of  a  good, 
or  even  a  fine  library,  rank  among  the  most  delightful  incidents  of 
cultivated  life,  and  even  some  scholars  (take  Heinsius,  Selden, 
Burton,  formerly,  or  in  our  own  day,  Buckle)  have  condescended 
to  become  book-hunters.  But  above  every  one  we  have  to  place 
the  all-accomplished  Heber,  to  whose  enormous  attainments  Dibdin 
has  borne  some  testimony  in  a  well-known  passage  of  the  Literary 
Reminiscences.     He  was  indeed 

"velut  inter  ignes  luna  minores." 

Perhaps  Brunet  goes  a  little  too  far  in  underrating  the  importance 
of  articles,  but  it  is  the  better  and  safer  extreme ;  and  it  may  be  taken 
as  a  very  good  basis  of  operations  by  intending  collectors  or  budding 
bibliomaniacs,  that  the  majority  of  old  books,  like  the  majority  of  old 
pictures,  and  (in  short)  old  everything,  are  comparatively  worthless 
in  a  pecuniary  point  of  view,  while  those  which  maintain  their 
rank  in  the  market  have  frequently  nothing  to  justify  the  prices 
which  they  realise  but  the  single  circumstance  that  very  few  per- 
sons formerly  thought  them  worthy  of  preservation.  In  fact,  there 
are  thousands  of  old  English  books  which  bear  a  disagreeable 
resemblance,  in  the  writer's  estimation,  to  waste-paper,  and  among 
these  are  the  most  costly  and  the  most  highly-prized  treasures  of 
collections  in  our  day. 

That  there  are  exceptions,  it  is  true.  Some  of  the  works  of 
Spenser,  Shakespeare,  Daniel,  Drayton,  Bacon,  exist  for  us  in  one 
or  two  copies,  of  which  the  worth  is  not  capable  of  measurement 


PREFACE.  IX 


by  any  commonplace  standard ;  but  these  are  pieces  of  literature, 
not  briC'd-brac,  like  the  effusions  of  Nicholas  Breton  and  certain 
other  pamphleteers,  from  whom  a  few  casual  allusions,  rendered 
interesting  by  circumstances  or  time,  are  all  the  purchaser  gets 
in  return  for  what  would  yield  a  small  annuity.  After  all  said, 
however,  the -five  or  six  thousand  articles  which  are  comprised  within 
the  present  volume  belong  to  what  was  once  a  current  and  accepted 
literature — a  literature  which  fulfilled  a  certain  share  in  the  im- 
portant duty  of  instructing  our  ancestors  and  amusing  them  ;  and 
surely  a  faithful  record  and  full  descriptive  account  of  such  a  body 
of  material  cannot  be  treated  as  superfluous. 

Old  English  books  may  be  classed  under  three  heads — (1) 
Direct  importance  ;  (2)  indirect  or  collateral  importance ;  (3)  biblio- 
graphical curiosity.  Of  these  it  may  be  said  that  only  the  first 
and  second  categories  repay  the  attention  of  literary  inquirers ; 
and  even  as  regards  works  of  which  the  value  consists  in  some 
feature  not  immediately  connected  with  the  writer,  the  interest  is 
often  so  languid  or  so  fractional,  that  it  is  apt  to  be  exhausted  in 
some  judicious  essay  or  in  a  descriptive  catalogue.  Articles  which 
fall  within  the  third  and  remaining  section — bibliographical  curiosi- 
ties— are  to  be  treated  rather  as  cabinet  specimens  than  as  books,  and 
are  worth — what  they  fetch.  They  are  liable  to  great  fluctuations 
in  their  marketable  worth,  for  the  simple  reason  that  their  worth  is 
as  uncertain  as  an  unknown  quantity  in  equations. 

The  counsel  which  should  be  tendered  to  the  forthcoming  race 
of  bibliophilists  by  some  new  Dibdin  might  with  advantage,  perhaps, 
be  grounded  on  the  principle  of  keeping  in  sight,  in  the  formation 
of  a  library,  the  literary  or  intrinsic,  in  preference  to  the  com- 
mercial or  casual,  qualities  of  the  material  employed,  so  to  speak,  in 
its  construction.  Curiosities  rise  and  fall  with  the  caprices  of  taste 
and  fashion  ;  but  standard  books  never  vary. 

An  eminent  collector,  who  buys  rare  and  dear  books,  not  because 
they  are  rare  and  dear,  but  notwithstanding  their  rarity  and  clearness, 
has  remarked  to  the  writer  that  the  best  books,  for  the  most  part. 


PREFACE. 


are  the  commonest,  and  this  observation  holds  true,  saving  a  few 
isolated  and  exceptional  cases,  of  the  literature  which  possesses 
the  highest  claim  to  our  attention — the  literature  which  is  intrin- 
sically and  directly  important — important,  not  from  associations 
which  happen  to  have  grown  up  round  it,  but  in  itself  and  for  its 
own  sake. 

Bookbinding  is  indirectly  connected  with  bibliography,  in  so  far 
as  it  exerts  so  vast  an  influence  over  the  selling  value  of  copies. 
But  it  rather  belongs  to  the  Fine  Arts  than  to  literature  proper, 
and  it  is  a  subject  which  I  have  rarely  approached.  Old  English 
books  with  early  decorated  bindings  of  conspicuous  beauty  are,  in 
point  of  fact,  of  such  rare  occurrence,  that  a  descriptive  account  of 
all  known  examples  would  fall  far  short  of  filling  a  volume  like 
that  of  Libri.  Perhaps  it  is  virtually  nothing  to  the  purpose  that 
bibliopegy  is  treated  by  severely  practical  book-fanciers  as  the  mere 
upholstery  of  the  question. 

A  folio  MS.  in  the  library  of  Mr  Henry  Huth  includes  among 
its  multifarious  contents  a  catalogue  of  old  plays,  which  becomes  of 
curiosity,  as  it  seems  to  supply  the  earliest  record  of  the  formation 
of  a  dramatic  collection  in  England.  It  is  to  be  presumed  that 
the  owner  of  it  was  Henry  Oxenden  of  Barham,  and  it  comprised 
one  hundred  and  twenty-one  separate  pieces,  bound  in  six  volumes. 
Among  them  may  be  recognised  some  of  the  most  extraordinary 
rarities  in  our  language,  such  as  Udall's  Ralph  Roister  Doister^  the 
Hamlet  of  1603,  The  Tide  tarrieth  no  Man,  Marlowe's  Dido,  and 
others,  which  are  entitled  from  their  scarcity  to  rank  as  MSS.  The 
list  is  printed  entire  in  Mr  Huth's  forthcoming  Catalogue. 

In  conclusion,  I  have  extreme  pleasure  in  recognising  the  assist- 
ance which  has  been  rendered  to  me  in  the  course  of  my  nine  years' 
additional  labours  by  several  friends,  who  allowed  me  to  enrich 
myself  at  the  expense  of  their  information  or  stores  to  an  extent 
beyond  any  claim  I  had  on  their  kindness.  I  beg  to  mention 
especially  my  obligations  to  Mr  Henry  Huth ;  Mr  Henry  Bradshaw, 
who  manifested  the  warmest  interest  in  my  imperfect  labours,  and 


PREFACE. 


opened  to  me  freely  the  too-little-known  stores  of  the  Cambridge 
University  Library ;  the  Rev.  H.  0.  Coxe,  Bodley's  Librarian ;  Mr 
Furnival,  who  sent  me  memoranda  of  everything  he  considered 
likely  to  be  serviceable  ;  Mr  Henry  Pyne,  who  afforded  me  constant 
access  to  his  valuable  collections,  as  well  as  the  benefit  of  his  still 
more  valuable  knowledge ;  Mr  George  Bullen,  who  greatly  facili- 
tated my  supplementary  researches  at  the  British  Museum ;  Mr 
Sketchley,  with  whose  kind  co-operation  I  supplied  certain  im- 
portant deficiencies  in  my  original  work  from  the  treasures  of  the 
Dyce  Collection  at  South  Kensington ;  and  the  Right  Honourable 
the  Earl  Spencer  (through  the  good  offices  of  the  Hon.  and  Rev. 
F.  J.  Ponsonby,  Rector  of  Brington),  by  whose  liberality  I  have 
been  again  enabled  to  profit,  as  was  the  case  in  1867.  Dr  Ingleby 
nlso  supplied  me  with  the  titles  and  collations  of  some  curious 
books  in  his  possession. 

Nor  must  I  omit  to  record  my  gratitude  to  those  well-known 
firms  of  auctioneers,  Messrs  Sotheby,  Wilkinson,  &  Hodge,  and 
Messrs  Puttick  k  Simpson ;  and  to  Mr  Pearson,  Mr  Ellis,  Mr 
Pickering,  Mr  Quaritch,  Messrs  Nattali  &  Bond,  and  other  eminent 
booksellers,  for  the  facilities  which  they  always  afforded  to  me  in 
the  course  of  my  researches.

Richard  Hampole,  to  whom  it  is  ascribed  in 
MS.  Lambeth  432.  But  there  is  a  much 
earlier  copy  in  MS.  Vernon,  written  about 
1391.

This  interesting  publication  includes 
pieces  by  Drummond  of  Hawthomden  (a

Craig  of  Rose-craig,  Sir  William  Mure  of 
Kowallan,  David  Hume,  and  most  of  the 
eminent  writers  of  the  day. 

There  were  two  issues  of  this  volume  in 
1618,  varying  in  the  preliminaries  only, 
wliich  were  set  up  twice,  and  are  arranged 
differently.  As  the  device  of  Andro  Hart 
apj)ears  in  one  of  the  ornaments  in  the 
other,  it  may  be  questioned  whether  the 
whole  volume  was  not  really  printed  by 
him,  and  whether  Finlason  did  more  than 
attach  his  name  to  certain  copies. 

It  may  be  added  that  the  catchword  JVo, 
at  sign.  L  2  verso,  does  not  correspond  with 
the  first  word  on  any  of  the  subsequent 
pages,  and  it  appears  as  if  some  matter  had 
been  suppressed.

This  is  the  same  story  as  Amis  and  Am-

Slaughter  was  acted  in  1598.

and  the  edition  of  1530  by  W.  de  Worde 
appear  to  be  the  only  impressions  for  which 
there  is  any  suflScient  evidence.  Lowndes 
quotes  without  the  slightest  real  authority 
impressions  by  W.  de  Worde  in  1512  and 
1524,  referring  to  the  Bodleian  copy  of  the 
former,  which  does  not  exist,  and  to  Dr 
Bliss's  copy  of  the  latter,  which  is  now  be- 
fore me,  with  Pynsori's  device,  as  already

one  of  the  earliest  tracts  on  the  question  of

I  am  so  far  ignorant  on  what  ground  some 
of  our  earlier  bibliographers  speak  of  edi- 
tions of  the  Affectionate  Shepherd  in  1595 
and  (with  the  Cynthia)  in  1596.  If  such 
editions  ever  appeared,  the  owners  of  them 
have  so  far  concealed  their  resting-place  with 
complete  success.  I  am  not  aware  of  any 
public  or  private  library  which  possesses  the 
Affectionate  Shepherd  otherwise  than  in  the 
40  of  1594,  or  the  Cynthia  otherwise  than  in 
the  separate  octavos  of  1595  and  1596.

apparently  be  a  leaf  with  a  colophon,  though 
such  is  not  wanting  in  the  sheet.

subscribes  himself:  "Your  Honours  most

Epigrams  are  a  scarce  kind  of  writing,  and 
evidently  seemed  to  think  that  his  book

would  at  least  have  the  attraction  of  no- 
velty. He  lived  to  see  the  market  swarm 
with  such  things.  From  an  allusion  in  Lib. 
3,  Epigr.  18,  it  would  seem  that  the  book 
was  published  at  sixpence.

ment of  two  leaves,  C  1  and  C  4,  recovered 
from  the  pasteboard  or  fly-leaves  of  a  book 
from  abroad.     The  edition  in  all  probability 
made  C  in  fours  or  12  leaves,  like  that  of 
Copland  ;  in  some  places  it  is  more  correct 
than  his.     It  may  belong  to  the  same  im- 
pression as   Mr   Collier's  fragment,   but  I 
have  not  been  able  to  compare  them.     Byd- 
dell's  impression  of  this  famous  old  ballad- 
poem  occasionally  supplies,  so  far  as  the 
fragment  goes,  a  word  dropped  in  Copland's, 
but  in  one  place,  where  the  pardoned  out- 
laws, towards  the  end,  in  Copland's  edition, 
are  made  to  say,  "to  some  bysshop  wyl  we 
wende,"  the  text  of  1536  reads,  "to.fiom. 
streyght  wyll  we  wende."

BOCCACCIO,  GIOVANNI 

A  notable  Historye  of  Nastagio  and  Tra-

See  the  tale 'translated  also  in  Turber- 
vile's  Tragical  Tales,  1587,  where  it  is 
the  jSrst  in  order.  Query,  for  C.  T.  should 
we  not  read  G.  T.  ?  The  two  versions 
should  be  compared.  The  story  has  also 
been  translated  by  Dryden,  and  dramatised 
by  Shirley  under  the  title  of  Honoria  and 
Mammon. 

A  Pleasant  disport.  .  .  .  1567. 

The  only  copy  I  have  ever  seen  of  this 
impression  was  that  formerly  in  the  Brand 
and  Heber  collections.  I  believe  it  to  be 
the  same  as  that  described  by  Lowndes  as 
occurring  at  Dr  Farmer's  sale  in  1798.  It 
wants  the  conclusion. 

The  translator  is  more  likely  to  have 
been  ff.  Grantham  than  H.  Giff  ord.

On  the  title-])age  of  the  copy  here  de- 
scribed is  :  "This  booke  was  bought  in  the 
yere  of  O"^  Lorde  god  1555."  Unseen  by 
Herbert,  who  quotes  an  entirely  different, 
and  probably  later,  edition  by  Wayland, 
although  the  date  1558  given  in  the  Typo- 
graphical Antiquities,  and  copied  thence 
into  Lowndes,  1  believe  to  be  quite  suppo- 
sititious. Wayland,  doubtless,  issued  the 
book  frequently  between  1554-GO  :  the  pre- 
sent was  perhaps  the  earliest  impression.

The  second  portion  is  dated  1655,  and  it 
seems  probable,  though  a  comparison  would 
be  necessary  to  establish  the  point,  that 
this  is  merely  the  edition  of  1655  with  a 
new  title.

Ames,  p.  369 ;  and  from  his  account,  com- 
pared with  the  original  title-page  among 
Bagford's  papers,  the  above  description  has 
been  derived.  The  prologue  on  the  back  of 
the  title  is  in  verse.

Harl.  MS.  6937.  In  the  British  Museum, 
as  Mr  Furnivall  informs  me  by  letter,  is  a 
copy  of  Moulton's  Glasse  of  Helthe  with  the 
title  to  a  copy  of  Horde's  Dietary  of^  Helthe 
improperly  prefixed  to  it  instead  of  its  own, 
which  is  deficient.  See  an  elaborate  biblio- 
graphy of  the  Dietary  by  Mr  Furnivall  in 
his  reprint,  1870.  Mr  Furnivall  thinks  that 
the  edition  of  the  Dietary  printed  by  Powell 
[Hazlitt,  V.  Borde,  No.  5  {d)]  should  be 
dated  1547  instead  of  1567.  Thomas  Col- 
well's  edition  of  1562  appears  to  have  been 
printed  without  licence,  as  he  was  fined  on 
this  account  in  1561. 

A  mery  lest  of  the  myher  of  Abyngton. 

W.  de  Worde,  4°. 

The  only  copy  known,  and  that  imperfect, 
was  bound  up  with  the  romance  of  Ipomy- 
don  in  a  volume  procured  by  Dibdin  from 
Lincoln,  and  sold  to  Heber.  It  was  in  the 
same  types  as  Ipomydon,  which  was  un- 
doubtedly printed  by  De  Worde. 

The  fyrst  boke  of  the  introduction  of 
knowledge.     W.  Copland,  4*^. 

The  edition  of  this  remarkable  work, 
printed  by  "W.  Copland  at  the  Rose  Garland^ 
is  supposed  to  have  appeared  about  1548 — 
at  all  events,  before  1550,  as  it  mentions 
Boulogne  as  still  in  English  possession. 
The  edition  printed  by  Copland  after  his 
removal  to  Lothbury  may  be  assigned  to 
1562-63.  Of  the  edition,  if  there  was  one, 
by  Robert  Copland,  we  have  no  trace.  The 
Lothbury  edition  omits  the  passage  about 
Boulogne  ;  the  orthography  varies,  and  the 
cuts  are  different. 

Borde,  in  his  Pryncyples  of  Astronomye, 
refers  to  his  Book  of  Knowledge  as  then  at 
Press.  The  work  was  licensed  to  W.  Cop- 
land in  1562-63 ;  but  whether  this  entry 
refers  to  the  first  impression  is  a  little  un- 
certain. •

Mr  Furnivall  does  not  trace  Borde's  hanc 
in  the  Gothamite  Tales,  ascribed  to  hii 
He  thinks  that  they  were  written  by  som« 
imitator  of  Borde's  manner,  who  took  ad-i 
vantage  of  the  popularity  which  Borde  hac 
acquired.  The  printed  editions  evidentlj 
do  not  contain  all  the  stories  of  this  kinc

the  present  character  are  not  very  plenti-

This  edition  differs  throughout  from  the 
preceding. 

"  I  have  another  edition  printed  1548, 
without  the  colophon,  and  the  assumed 
name  of  Roderigo  Mors,  but  adding  to  the 
title,  '  for  some  certaine  great  vyces  used 
therein.'  It  omits  a  few  passages,  particu- 
larly that  in  the  first  edition,  where  the 
author  speaks  of  his  own  personal  peril  in 
the  publication."— Haskell's  Selected  Cen- 
turies of  Books,  1843,  p.  83. 

Mr  Furnivall  points  out  to  me  that  the 
first  impression  mentions  an  occurrence  on 
June  16, 1541-42,  and  must  therefore  have 
been  printed  subsequently  to  that  date. 

It  now  appears  that  there  were  four,  not 
three,  impressions  of  this  remarkable  work, 
viz.,  the  first  of  (1542)  printed  abroad  in 
Italic  type,  and  three  purporting  to  have 
been  printed  at  Geneva,  but  really  from  a 
London  press,  probably  that  of  Scoloker  and 
Seres,  in  or  after  1547.

This  Eclogue  is  also  attached  to  the 
Worker  of  Master  George  Wither,  8°,  1620. 

The  copy  of  Brooke's  Ghost  of  Richard 
the  Third,  1614,  which  Mr  Hiith  has,  was 
bought  privately  by  Lilly  for  five-and- 
twenty  guineas  of  a  person  who  had  ob- 
tained it  of  a  stationer  at  Hackney  for  one 
shilling,  and  who  brought  it  to  him  shortly 
after  G.  Daniel's  sale  in  1864.  The  Bodleian 
copy  wants  the  two  blanks.  The  other 
copy,  wanting  two  printed  leaves,  is  now  in 
the  Britisa  Museum.  It  came  to  Lilly  from 
Stourbridge,  and  till  Mr  Huth  obtained  his 
perfect  copy,  he  contented  himself  with 
this.

Rose.     A — Qqq  in  sixes. 

The  Plowmans  Tale  is  here  first  printed, 


and  precedes  the  Parson's.  In  the  edition 
of  1542  it  follows  it.  See  Hei-bert's  Ames, 
J).  557,  where,  however,  the  capital  error  is 
committed  of  supposing  this  to  belong  to 
the  same  edition  as  that  dated  1542— a  mis- 
take into  which  Herbert  could  not  have 
fallen,  had  he  compared  the  two.  Tliis  is 
the  second  collected  edition. 

There  can  be  no  question  that  this  was  a 
trade  book,  as  well  as  the  edition  of  1542. 
A  copy  before  me,  otherwise  identical,  has 
the  following  colophon :  "  Imprinted  at

Mr  Halliwell  told  me  (May  24,  1869) 
that,  since  I  had  searcli  made  in  the 
Bodleian  for  this  tract,  said  to  be  among 
Bishop  Tanner's  books,  it  had  been  looked 
for  again  in  vain,  so  that  it  is  pretty  clear 
it  is  not  there  now. 

Piieriles  Confabulatiunculte.  .  .  .  1627. 
I  only  know  this  from  the  original  title- 
page  among  the  Bagford  Papers.  P>ut  it 
appears  from  the  inventory  of  .Tohn  Foster 
of  York's  stock,  taken  in  lOlG,  that  the 
book  was  then  already  in  existence  (Davies's 
Ywk-  Press,  p.  300) ;  and  in  fact  it  is  men- 
tioned under  the  title  of  Pneriks  in  Nash's 
Pappe  with  an  Hatchet  (1589),  so  that  the 
edition  of  1627  was  almost  certainly  a  late 
rejjriut.

more  likely  person  to  have  produced  it.

The  Duchess  of  Portland  (Margaret

not  appear  that  she  did  so.  The  title,  which 
Herbert  gives,  was  therefore  most  probably 
supplied  by  her  grace.

But  if  the  worke  and  writing  please  you 
That  Zenophon  from  whence  we  borrow

Being  both  a  souldier  and  philosopher 
Warrants  what  we  record  of  Panthea

Or  needlesse  antickes  imitations,      [toies 
Or  shewes,  or  new  devises  strung  a  late, 
We  have  exilde  them  from  our  Tragi  eke

As  trash  of  their  tradition,  that  can 
Nor  instance,   nor    excuse.      For  what 

they  do  [sings 

In  stead  of  mournefull  plaints  our  Chorus 
Although  it  be  against  the  npstart  guise, 
Yet  warranted  by  grave  antiquitie, 
We  will  revive  the  which  hath  long  beene

piece  as  Randolph's  Conceited  Pedlar, 
printed  by  Allot  in  1630,  and  erroneously

It  is  somewhat  hard  to  decide  upon  the 
authorship  of  this  scarce  volume,  as  Davies 
seems  to  claim  it  in  his  Preface,  while  "  a 
Hearty  well-wisher  to  his  countrey,"  in  an 
address  "To  the  Reader  in  general," 
speaks  of  the  work  as  his.  Perhaps  he  and 
Davies  were  one  and  the  same.  The  book 
was  written  before  the  Restoration.  The 
last  page  has  some  verses  "On  his  Majes-

V    Henry  Stephens,  and  their  uncle,  Sir  Philip 

^fr    Sidney.    The  dedication  of  the  Second  Part 

^H  is  still  more  interesting ;   it  is  "To   the 

^H  Honorable  Knight  Sir  K.obert  Rich  and  to 

^"  the  worthy  Gentleman  master  Henry  Eich 

his  Brother :  Sonnes  to  the  Right  Honor-

destitute  of  other  books,  and  knowing  not 
how  to  passe  those  long  nights  with  better

know  usteron  proteron  omneikos,  with  the 
Second  part  in  the  First  place."  It  further 
appears  that  chapter  36  was  translated  by 
Sir  Robert  Rich  himself,  and  afterwards 
very  slightly  revised  by  R.  C. 

Mr  Caldecott  was,  it  is  believed,  the  first 
person  who  drew  attention  to  the  proba- 
bility that  in  some  of  his  later  productions 
Shakesi)eare  made  use  of  this  volume.

The  Grenville  copy  of  this  rare  and  im- 
portant book  is  very  defective ;  but  complete 
copies  are  said  to  be  at  Ham  House  and  in 
the  library  of  Mr  Cunliffe.  It  is,  perhaps, 
to  be  regretted  that  so  valuable  an  as- 
semblage of  books  as  that  formed  by  Mr 
Grenville  should  have  been  so  imperfectly 
described  ;  but  the  Bibliotheca  Grenvilliana 
is  little  better  than  a  bookseller's  catalogue, 
supplemented  by  the  owner's  MS.  notes, 
too  often  based  upon  erroneous  information.

A  Supplicacyon  for  the  Beggers.  .  .  . 

There  can  be  no  doubt  that  Fish  wrote 
this ;  it  is  expressly  ascribed  to  him  in  a 
tract  printed  in  1555. 

The  Supplication  of  the  poore  Commons  is 
by  Robert  Crowley. 

In  Bibl.  Heber.,  Part  2,  No.  5795,  and  in 
the  Br.  Museum,  a  copy  of  the  Supplication 
of  the  poor  Commons  occurs,  with  the 
other  tract  adjoined,  and  "compyled  by 
Symon  Fyshe  "  added  ;  which  leaves  little 
doubt  on  the  subject,  and  shows  that  there 
was  more  than  one  issue  sine  ulld  notd  of

But  the  copies  of  this  and  Fisher's  other

arrangement ;  and  they  are  so  unimportant, 
that  it  is  scarcely  worth  while  to  enter  into 
further  particulars.

other  hand,  at  the  end  4  leaves  of  addi-

Davies  the  poet ;  these  leaves  are  on  un- 
usually thick  paper.  The  original  contents 
have  been  reprinted  in  smaller  type,  and  in 
an  abridged  shape,  so  as  to  occupy  only  two 
pages,  and  a  leaf  of  new  contents  has  been 
added,  announcing  in  broadside  type  the 
supplementary  inscriptions.  The  epitaph 
of  a  Mrs  Constance  Thomas,  wife  of  the 
Reverend  Dr  Thomas,  D.D.,  was,  it 
seems,  to  have  been  annexed,  but  was  can- 
celled, for  it  is  in  the  Index,  with  a  pen 
struck  through  it.  It  is  also  to  be  noticed 
that  in  one  of  the  cojjies,  in  place  of  the 
title  and  blank  leaf  with  a  border  facing  it, 
for  the  purpose  of  being  filled  in  according 
to  circumstances,  there  are  merely  2  leaves 
on  thick  paper,  containing  a  long  list  of 
personages,  to  whom  Fisher  pays  his  re-

There  are  commendatory  verses  by  the 
author's  son  John  Gambold  and  by  a  friend, 
the  latter  in  Welsh,  and  dated  1722-3, 
whence  it  may  appear  that  the  Grammar 
had  been  a  work  of  some  years'  labour. 
Gambold  advertises  here  a  Welsh  Diction-

A  MS.  formerly  in  the  Guilford  Collec- 
tion. It  seems  to  have  been  a  fair  copy 
of  the  drama  prepared  in  1568  for  presen- 
tation to  Roger,  second  Lord  North  of 
Kirtling,  who  succeeded  to  the  title  in  1564. 
It  has  on  the  title  the  autograph  and  motto 
of  that  nobleman  thus  :  Dvrvm  Pati.  68. 
R.  North.  The  text  here  does  not  exactly 
correspond  with  either  of  the  quartos  (1573 
and  1575) ;  it  may  be  the  precise  form  and 
language  of  the  play,  as  it  was  presented  in 
1566.  The  printed  text  of  1575  is,  after  all, 
the  best.  Gascoigne  appears  to  have  signed 
the  portions,  for  which  he  was  answerable, 
and  his  autograph  is  in  their  places.  The 
other  names  seem  to  be  in  the  hand  of  the 
copyist.

It  is  to  be  remarked  that  this  first  4°  of 
Gascoigne  contains  some  valuable  matter 
omitted  by  the  author  in  that  of  1575,  and 
also  exhibits  a  large  number  of  purer  read- 
ings than  its  successors.  Sec  Introduction

impression  is  pointed  out.

light. 

The  Glasse  of  Gonemement.  .  .  .  1675. 
The  dedication  to  Sir  Owen  Hopton  is 
nearly  always  wanting.  Herbert's  copy 
had  it,  and  that  copy  seems  to  have  been 
purchased  for  the  library  at  Britwell,  in 
order  to  secure  the  rare  leaf.  I  have  seen 
10  copies,  all  apparently  complete,  but 
without  it. 

The  Princelye  pleasures  at  the  Courte  at

whence  (directly  or  indirectly)  to  Mr 
Staunton  of  Longbridge,  in  whose  library, 
now  transferred  to  the  Midland  Institute,  it 
still  remains.  It  does  not  seem  to  have  been 
registered,  and  it  was  unknown  to  Herbert. 
A  facsimile  of  the  title  is  given  by  Hazlitt.

Works,  1869-70.    The  portraits  of  Ehzabeth 
found  in  the  4°  of  1575  have  been  removed, 
and  others  of  King  James'  substituted ;  but 
the  remainder  of  the  cut  has  been  left  un-

The  Invasions  of  Gennany.  .  .  .  1638. 

In  two  copies  of  this  piece  before  me  the 

last  four  leaves  vary  in  the  setting  up  and 

arrangement,  but  not  substantially.    In  one 

the  preface  has  been  corrected  with  the  pen, 

and  some  MS.  marginalia  added  in  a  coeval 

hand.     The  Invasions jjf  Germany,  and  the 

other  four  pieces  mentioned  in  the  Handbook 

(Nos.  15-18),  are  not  unusually  found  in  a 

volume  together,  but  seldom  occur  in  good 

condition,    especially  with  the   bird's-eye 

map  of  Germany.

GONDOMAR,  COUNT.

the  Museum  ;  Weldon's  Cou7't  of  K.  James, 
1C51  ;  Apothegmes  of  K.  James,  1658. 

The  political  and  diplomatic  correspond- 
ence of  Gondomar  would  be  surely  worthy 
of  publication  in  an  English  dress.  It  is 
said  to  lie  in  two  repositories,  distant  from 
each  other  ;  but  a  gentleman,  who  is  inte- 
rested in  the  early  relations  between  Spain 
and  England,  has  spoken  of  undertaking  a 
translation  of  the  whole.

GOOGE,  BARNABY. 

Mr  Huth's  copy  of  Googe's  Eglogs,  1563,

years  ago  (about  1866),  bound  up  with  a 
comparatively  common  book,  and  was  not 
even  noticed  in  the  sale-catalogue.  It  was 
bought  by  Lilly. 

A  new  edition  of  these  Eclogues  was,  it 
seems,  nearly  ready  in  1587,  and  was  sur- 
rendered in  that  year  to  the  Stationers' 
Company  by  R.  Newbery.

GROTIUS, 


Some  portions,  as  Greenes  Ode  of  the 
vanitie  of  loanton  loritings,  the  Descrij^tion 
of  Chaucer  and  Gower,  and  Theodoras  Song, 
are  in  verse.  Whoever  was  the  writer,  it  is 
certainly  a  kighly  curious  tract.  It  begins 
with  these  words  : — "  After  I  was  burdened 
with  the  penning  of  the  Cohler  of  Canter- 
bury " — from  which  we  may  infer  that  it 
was  within  the  author's  knowledge  that 
Greene  was  concerned  in  the  authorship  of 
that  book,  first  printed  in  1590 — a  fact,  if 
true,  not  otherwise  ascertained.

*'  To  all  bitter  Censurers  and  wilfull  mis- 
beleeuers."  At  the  top  of  the  first  leaf  of 
the  poems  occurs  this  memorandum  :  "  This 
booke  was  begun  in  September  in  the  yeare 
of  our  Lord  God  1622. "  Query,  is  this  an  un- 
described  work  by  Bishop  Hall  ]  Hall  was 
not  made  a  bishop  till  1627 ;  these  poems 
are  all  of  a  sacred  character,  and  the  address 
at  the  commencement  bears  a  striking  re- 
semblance to  his  "Defiance  to  Envy,"  which 
precedes  his  Satires.  On  the  last  page  is 
the  autograph  of  Thomas  Hall.

the  Prologue  on  B,  and  ends  on  a  4  in

that  is  apparently  wanting.  A  perfect 
copy  should  probably  have  A,  4  leaves : 
B— a  in  eights.  The  prologue  is  in  stanzas 
of  7  lines,  and  occupies  6  leaves. 

The  title  given  above  is  from  Collier's 
Extracts  from  the  Stationers'  Registers,  no 
copy  with  the  title  having  been  yet  re- 
covered. The  songs  and  other  poems  are 
accompanied  by  the  music. 

Doctor  Cuningham,  in  some  introductory 
matter  to  Hall's  Work  of  Chirurgery,  1565, 
refers  to  this  volume  as  then  in  the  printers 
hands  ;  his  address  is  dated  from  his  house 
in  Coleman  Street,  18th  April,  1565.  He 
says:  "This  author  also  hath  finished  an 
other  worke  inuaying  against  vice,  and 
therfore  named  the  court  of  vertue."

As  there  is  a  slight  variation  in  the  title 
here  from  the  other  copy  which  has  just 
been  noticed,  it  seems  probable  that  this 
portion  passed  the  press  twice  in  1598.  The 
difference  in  the  sheet  A  arose  from  the 
absence  of  the  leaf  headed  De  Suis  Satyris,

second  leaf.

cern in  this  compilation  ;  and  in  one  copy 
the  words,  "By  Mr  G.  H."  have  been  care- 
fully erased  by  some  one  at  the  time,  as  if 
he  knew  Herbert  not  to  be  the  author  or

There  is  slight  reason  to  question  that 
the  authorship  of  this  rare  poem  is  as 
fictitious  as  the  place  of  printing.  On  the 
last  page  occurs  the  mark  of  the  London 
typographer  Hugh  Singleton,  from  whose 
press  the  little  volume  certainly  emanated  ; 
and  it  is  nearly  a  settled  point  that  the  true 
writer  was  Bishop  Bale. 

A  copy,  probably  that  sold  in  a  volume  of 
tracts  at  Heber's  sale,  is  at  Britwell.  The  only 
others  known  are  those  which  Mr  Huth  has 
and  the  Grenville  one.  The  title  may  have 
been  suggested  by  "The  Burying  of  the 
Mass "  by  which  name  Roy's  satire  was 
known  at  the  time,  and  was  proscribed  in 
153L     Heber,  part  9,  No.  2988,  in  a  vol.

Many  of  the  woodcuts,  which  are  fairly 
executed,  and  some  indeed  excellent,  are 
repeated  over  and  over  again.  This  is  pro- 
bably one  of  the  most  difficult  books  in  the 
language  to  obtain  in  thoroughly  genuine 
state,  nearly  every  copy  being  made  up  or 
imperfect.

probable  that  the  Robert  Rider  named  in

that  the  volume  was  executed  at  his  ex- 
pense, since  no  other  book  bears  his  name.

The  only  prefix  is  a  ve;'y  interesting  pre-

an  intimate  friendship  with  the  deceased

odd  little  work,  consisting  of  a  variety  of 
information  thought,  doubtless,  to  be 
entertaining  at  the  time.  Hunt,  of  whom 
nothing  seems  to  be  known,  was  astrologi-

with  a  copy  of  Mathematicall  Magick,  by

Nicholas  Hunt  was  written  twice — probably

seem  to  have  entered  London  till  March,

Kt.  London  Printed  by  Ric.  Hearne. 
1642.  4^,  X  2  in  fours,  including  a 
frontispiece  and  a  spare  leaf  before  it. 

The  engraved  title  is  very  elegantly  exe- 
cuted, but  in  both  the  copies  before  me  the 
engraver's  name  is  wholly  or  partially  lost. 
The  upper  corners  are  occupied  by  portraits, 
probably  intended  for  Kinaston  and  his 
mistress  or  wife.  In  the  Address  to  the 
Reader,  he  apologises  for  "  exposing  this 
toy  and  trifle  to  the  World's  view  and  cen- 
sure," when  he  had  by  him  "many  pieces 
of  reall  and  solid  learning  ready  written  for 
the  Presse. "    X  2  has  only  the  Imprimatur.

LIGHTFOOT,  WILLIAM. 
The  Complaint  of  England.  Wherein  it 
is  clearely  prooued  that  the  practises  of 
Traitrous  Papists  against  the  state  of  this 
Realme,  and  the  person  of  her  Maiestie, 
are  in  Diuinitie  vnlawfiill,  odious  in  Na- 
ture, and  ridiculous  in  pollicie.  In  the 
which  they  are  reprooued  of  wilfuU  blind- 
nes,  in  that  they  see  not  the  filthines  of 
the  Romish  gouernment :  and  conuinced 
of  desperate  madnesse,  in  that  they  feare 
not  the  mischiefe  of  Spanish  inuasion  : 


The  former  whereof  is  exemplified  by  the 
Popes  practises  both  here  in  England, 
and  abroad  in  other  countries  :  the  later 
by  the  Spaniards  outrages,  in  liis  exactions 
raised  vpon  Nobles,  and  his  tyrannies 
executed  in  the  Indies.  Lastly  the  neces- 
sitie,  equitie,  and  benefits  of  the  late  pro- 
ceeding in  iustice  are  set  downe  ;  with  a 
friendly  warning  to  seditious  Papists  for 
their  amendment ;  and  an  effectuall  con- 
solation to  faithfull  subiectes  for  their  in- 
couragement.

The  work  is  dedicated  by  Carew  Gorges, 
the  translator's  son,  to  Lucy,  Countess  of 
Bedford  in  a  very  interesting  and  sensibly

At  Sir  W.  Tite's  sale  in  July  1874,  a  copy 
occurred  of  this  poem,  printed  by  W.  de 
Worde,  with  11  leaves,  that  containing  the 
end  of  the  piece  and  a  gloss,  with  (presum- 
ably) the  colophon  or  mark  of  the  printer, 
being  deficient.    In  this  copy  the  first  leaf

was  occupied  by  a  woodcut  on  the  recto, 
repeated  on  the  reverse ;  and  the  poem 
commenced  on  the  third  page,  under  a 
head-Une,  where  goose  was  spelt  Goos.  The 
first  signature,  however,  being  aa,  it  is  a 
question  whether  the  impression  under 
notice  was  not  really  intended  to  form  part 
of  some  larger  volume. 

The  vertue  of  y'^  masse.  [This  is  in  a

correctly, under  Mass.  Reprinted  in  Mr 
Huth's  Fugitive  Tracts,  1875,  1st  Series.

From  the  dedication  to  the  generality  of

be  inferred  that  the  printed  text  was  the

Herbert  says  24  leaves,  but  there  are  42. 
In  the  library  of  Caius  College,  Cam- 
bridge (Collett's  Cat.  p.  17),  is  a  copy  of 
Nash's  Pierce  Penniless,  wanting  the  title, 
but  having  L  in  fours.  This  may  be  one 
of  the  impressions  to  be  accounted  for. 

It  is  in  reference  to  Nash's  printer  that 
Harvey,  in  his  Pierces  Su/>erero(/ation,  1593, 
calls  Nash  "Danter's  gentleman."  It  ap- 
pears from  Nash's  Epistle  before  his  Christ's 
Tears,  edit.  1594,  that  his  Jack  Wilton  was 
suspected  to  be  an  anagram  of  Wittenberg 
— evidently  some  joke.  See  Collier's  reprint 
of  Harvey's  Neio  Letter,  1593,  Introd.

Strange  Newes,  with  merely  "  Printed  1592  " 
at  the  foot  of  the  title,  and  I  have  a  copy 
before  me  with  the  date  1593  and  the 
original  title.

—Note  by  Mr  Heber.  '  In  1595  Peele's  Old

Dramatica,  and  in  T.  Warton's  edition  of 
Milton's  Minor  Poems,  as  a  production  from 
which  the  great  poet  seems  partly  to  have 
derived  the  plan  and  character  of  Comus  ; 
and  consequently  the  students  of  English 
poetry  are  familiar  with  its  name,  but  with 
its  name  only,  as  very  few  of  them  can  have 
perused  a  drama  of  such  excessive  rarity.'

gartered,  and  on  the  opposite  page  occurs 
the  inscription  to  Charles.  The  Preface  to 
the  Reader  is  in  prose,  and  is  followed  by 
a  poetical  Introduction.  Then  follows  the 
Argument  in  prose,  after  which  we  get 
the  same  sort  of  metrical  prayer  to  God  as 
in  the  Feast  for  Wormes,  but  here  in  three 
stanzas.  The  History  of  Ester  is  related  in 
twenty  sections,  each  section  accompanied 
by  a  Meditation,  also  in  verse.

Emblems  in  1643  as  the  second.

The  Tale  of  Narcissus  (a  translation  from 
Ovid  made  several  years  before,as  the  author 
tells  us)  begins  on  M4,  after  a  second  title- 
page  ;  it  is  in  8-line  stanzas.     As  Drayton 
published  his  address  to  Reynolds  in  1627, 
it  is  at  least  a  probability,  that  the  Nar- 
cissus had  already  then  made  the  name  of 
the  writer  more  or  less  celebrated  in  con- 
nection with  the  subject,  unless  Drayton 
saw   the   translation   in   MS.     The  whole 
volume  is  dedicated  to  Lord  Maltravers.

It  appears  that  1000  copies  were  printed

while  a  literary  acquaintance    of    his,  one 
Jerome  [Barlow?]  of  Greenwich,  was  writ- 
ing some  rhymes  at  Roy's  suggestion— it  is 
to  be  presumed  perhaps  the  satire  against 
"Wolsey,  usually  ascribed   to  Roy  himself.

It  has  lately  appeared  to  the  present

that  the  John  Elder,  who  subscribes  this

Bishop  of  Cathenes,  and  Priest  of  Dun- 
britain  College  in  Scotland,  wsxs  the  same

name,  published  in  1521  a  History  of 
Britain.  The  preface  to  the  letter  is  dated 
from  the  Parisian  Gymnasium,  and  the

a  careful  perusal  of  this  piece,  he  is  per- 
suaded that  it  was  partly  wi-itteu  by  Flet-

The  unpaged  leaves  in  Mr  Huth's  copy 
between  332-3,  being  an  addition  to  the 
narrative  by  Sir  W.  Alexander,  appear  to 
have  been  inserted  from  a  different  and 
later  edition.  They  do  not  remedy  the 
seeming  hiatus  in  the  text  and  sense  occa- 
sioned by  the  catchword  Thus  at  the 
bottom  of  p.  332,  with  nothing  to  answer  to 
it  on  p.  333 ;  but  from  the  note  at  the 
top  of  333  it  is  to  be  collected  that  the  ori- 
ginal MS.  was  at  fault  here,  and  required  a 
certain  amount  of  editorial  assistance.  The 
catchword  in  the  folio  of  1605  is  correct, 
and  therefore  Thus  may  be  a  mere  misprint.

the  Dialogue  with  a  new  half-title. 

In  the  preface  the  author  seems  to  inti- 
mate that  a  perusal  of  Milton's  Paradise 
Lost,  with  which  he  was  "much  taken," 
led  to  his  attempt  at  a  poem  touching  the 
same  ground.  The  Dialogue  at  the  end  was 
written  first,  and  had  been  intended  for 
publication  by  itself.

SOUTHWELL,  ROBERT. 
A  Supplication  to  Queen  Elizabeth,  159.3. 
Mr  Grosart  supposes  this  to  belong  to  the 
poet's  father.   See  his  edition  of  Southwell, 
p.  Ivi.,  where  in  general  will  be  found  much 
printed  for  the  fifst  time  or  in  a  better  text 
from  MSS.  at  Stonyhurst, 
An  Epistle  of  Comfort  to  the  Reverend 
Priestes  &  to  the  Honorable,  Worship-

It  appears,  from  the  notice  to  the  Reader 

prefixed  to  this  very  rare  prose  publication, 

which  appears  to  have  been  Southwell's 

first  appearance  in  print,  that  the  work  was 

not  intended  for  general  circulation,  but 

was  written  for  a  particular  friend.     The 

circumstances  of  the  time,  however,  and 

the  importunity  of  several  persons,  led  to  a 

change  of  purpose. 

Saint  Peters  Complaint,  Newly  augmented

4°,  in  fours,  with  the  title  within  a  broad 

engraved  border. 

This  is  an  imperfect  copy  of  an  un  de- 
scribed edition,  varying  much  from  that 
republished  by  Mr  Grosart,  with  the  same 
imprint,  and  also  undated.  This  contains 
three  poems,  apparently  wanting  in  the 
other  impression,  namely,  "the  nativitie 
of  Christ,"  "  Christ's  Childhood,"  and 
"Joseph's  Amazement ;"  but  as  two  or  three 
leaves  are  deficient  in  various  parts,  there 
may  have  been  others.  The  orthography 
and  language  differ  frequently  from  the 
text  supplied  by  Mr  Grosart.  In  that  gen- 
tleman's edition  the  three  pieces  just  re- 
ferred to  are  inserted  among  the  Moionice, 
a  collection  originally  printed  in  1595. 

The  edition  now  noticed  should  contain 

probably,  in  a  complete  state,  A — M  2  in 

fours,  or  46  leaves  ;  but  the  present  copy 

wants  a  leaf  in  F,  one  in  L,  and  M  2. 

S.  Peters  Complaint.  [Doway.]  m.dc.xvi.

In  this  and  the  other  Doway  edition  of 
1620  some  of  the  poems  are  inserted  under 
different  titles.      Thus  the  verses   called 


elsewhere  "Of  the  blessed  Sacrament  of 
tlie  Aulter  "  are  here  called  "The  Christians 
Manna."

of  the  degrees  of  comparison,  which  the 
other  does  not  so  much  as  mention.  That 
gives  the  moods  and  tenses  of  the  four  con-

There  is  little  or  no  doubt  that  the  copy 
among  the  King's  books  in  the  Museum  is 
the  same  -which  Herbert  cites,  and  which 
he  saw  in  the  possession  of  Mr  G.  Mason. 
Mason's  books  were  sold  in  1797,  when  the 
Terence  was  probably  bought  for  the  King.

The  latter  had  been  born  on  the  12th  Octo- 
ber, 1537,  and  his  mother  died  very  shoi-tly 
after.  But  as  Tisdale,  the  printer  of  the  only 
copy  known  at  present,  appears  to  have  pro- 
duced nothing  prior  to  1550,  there  may  have 
been  an  earlier  edition,  or  it  may  have  lain 
by  in  MS.  Thersites  was  reprinted  by

This  is  a  curious  piece,  relating  to  the 
Roman   Catholics  in  Wales.     The   author 
says  that  he  was  a  younger  brother,  and 
about  1673  became  gentleman-usher  to  Lady 
Mary  Mollineux,  daughter  to  the  Earl  of 
Powis,  in  which  service  he  acquired  the  in-

This  title-page  (for  I  have  nothing  more 

of  it)  differs  from  that  given  by  Herbert, 

p.  770,  who  does  not  profess  to  have  seen 


the  book.  However,  the  present  edition, 
though  bearing  the  original  date  1551, 
would  appear  from  the  E.  R.  to  have  been 
printed  after  1558.  The  leaf  was  probably 
taken  from  a  copy  of  an  edition  reiisued 
about  that  time,  and  is  inserted  in  a  copy 
before  me  of  the  Cologne  edition  of  1568.

VALENTINE  AND  ORSON. 

The  edition  of  this  romance,  printed  by 
Copland,  was  a  translation  from  the  French 
by  Henry  "Watson.    According  to  Mr  Halh- 
well  {Popular  English  Histories,  p.  29),  Dr 
Farmer  had  a  fragment  of  "  a  very  old  edi- 
tion probably  printed  by  W.  de  Worde." 
The  fragment  in  the  Devonshire  collection 
is  said  to  have  been  discovered  in  the  old 
library  at  Bolton  Abbey,  Yorkshire.   There 
is  a  leaf  of  an  edition,  apparently  in  De 
Worde's  type,  among  Bagford's  Collections.

This  volume  is  noticeable  on  account  of

and  to  which  full  attention  has  been  drawn 
by  Mr  Chappell.

have  acquired  possession  of  many  of  Raw-

was  the  identical  copy  used  by  Hearne.

tels  vs  a  pretty  story,  wliich  may  fitly  be 
ai)plyed  to  these  fellowes  [earthworms].  A 
Musitian  (saith  hee)  did  on  a  time  come  to 
shew  his  skill  in  lassus  among  a  company 
of  Fishe-men :  they  all  gaue  him  audience, 
to  his  seeming,  with  much  attention.  But 
so  soone  as  euer  they  heard  the  Market-bell 
ring,  they  ranne  all  at  once,  in  all  haste 
from  the  musicke,  euery  man  to  his  Market : 
one  onely,  that  was  hard  of  hearing,  stayes 
still  behiude  and  continues  a  hearer.  The 
musitian,  imagining  that  the  loue  of  his 
Musicke  had  wonne  him  this  mannes  com- 
pany, when  all  the  rest  had  left  him,  comes 
nearer  to  him,  andgiues  himsolemne  thankes 
for  that  hee  had  heard  him  with  so  good 
attention,  when  all  the  rest  did  so  rudely 
leaue  him  vpon  the  ringing  of  the  Market- 


bell.  'And  hath  the  Bell  rung  indeede,' 
quoth  the  deafe  man?  The  Musitian  tels 
him  it  had  ;  whereupon  he  also  flings  away 
after  his  fellowes,  murmuring  that  for  his 
hearkening  to  a  fidler  he  had  like  to  haue 
lost  his  Market."

from  the  author  to  the  reader. 

The  last  page  but  one  of  this  very  scarce 
volume  is  occupied  by  a  copy  of  Sapphics, 
one  of  the  earliest  specimens  of  that  style 
of  versification  in  our  language.  On  the 
title-page  is  a  large  oval  woodcut  of  St. 
George  and  the  Dragon,  and  on  D  2  verso 
occurs  a  second  and  smaller  one  of  the  hero 
without  the  monster — a  common  engraving 
used  in  illustrating  the  popular  romances 
of  the  day,  and  applied  unscrupulously  to 
a  variety  of  accounts.

from  J.  B.'s  address  that  the  volume  was

encouraged  by  Bodenham  to  undertake  this 
little  commonplace-book  as  a  sort  of  sequel 
to  the  Politeuphuia.     It  is  very  doubtful 
whether  any  issue  anterior  to  this  of  1599 
ever  existed  ;  for  Herbert,  who  quotes  one 
of  1598,  does  not  appear  to  have  seen  it.

This  edition  differs  so  greatly  from  that 
of    1661,    as   to   deserve   to   be   considered 
rather  a   new  publication.      Some  of  the 
pieces  included  are  chiefly  remarkable  for 
their  outrageous  coarseness.

Dedicated  to  SirThomas  Chaloner  Knight, 
clerk  of  the  Privy  Council.  This  is  evi- 
dently the  long  -  sought  -  for  first  edition 
of  the  book,  and  the  terms  of  the  Pro- 
logue, as  it  is  called,  addressed  by  the 
author  to  Chaloner,  seem  to  set  at  rest  the 
question  whether  there  was  really  any  im- 
pression published  in  Caxton's  house  by  W. 
de  Worde,  as  stated  by  some  of  our  earlier 
bibliographers.  See  Sir  Huth's  Prefaces.

Green-Dragon.  1613.  8°,  X  in  eights, 
first  two  leaves  blank,  and  title  on  A  3. 

The  Essays  end  on  T6,  and  the  rest  of 
the  volume  is  occupied  by  the  Scourge,  a 
satire,  and  by  a  series  of  Epigrams,  many 
of  which  are  of  autobiographical  interest. 
This  edition  does  not  contain  the  cut  of  the 
satyr. 

Among  the  Epigrams  should  be  noticed 
those  addressed  to  his  father  and  mother, 
to  his  dear  friend.  Master  Thomas  Cranley, 
to  his  cousin-german,  Mr  "William  "Wither, 
and  to  his  schoolmaster,  Master  John 
Greaves. 

Mr  J.  B.  Pulham,  to  whom  the  copy  be- 
fore me  belonged,  has  noted  :  "  This  copy 
differs  from  my  other  three  .  .  .  From  the 
incorrect  orthography,  which  occurs  in  this 
copy,  and  is  amended  in  the  other  three,  was 
not  this  the  first  edition  ?    There  are  also

have  another  copy  before  me  of  this  same 
edition  (apparently),  in  which  the  Greek 
verse  is  in  different  and  larger  type,  and 
other  variations  present  themselves  through- 
out, showing  it  to  be  a  distinct  impression.

neere  Temple  barre.  1614.  8^,  F  in 
eights,  the  first  and  second,  and  last, 
leaves  blank. 

This  ajipears  to  be  the  first  edition  of  the 
Poem.  It  was  written  in  the  Marshalsea, 
to  which  Wither  had  been  committed  for 
the  publication  of  his  Abuses  Stript  and 
Whipt,  1613  ;  and  it  had  the  efifect  of  pro- 
curing his  release.

and  last  leaves  blank. 

It  is  difficult  to  tell  which  of  the  impres- 
sions was  the  prior.  They  are  both  ad- 
dressed by  the  j)oet  "  To  those  Honovred, 
Noble,  and  Right  vertuous  Friends,  my 
visitors  in  the  Marshalsey:  And,  To  all 
other,  my  vnknowne  Favovrites,  who 
eyther  p[r]iuately  or  publiquely  wished  me 
well  in  my  imprisonment,"  yet  the  running 
title  or  headline  is  "To  the  Reader."

F.  Delaram, 

"  Accompanying  this  copy  is  a  long  MS. 
paper  in  the  autograph  of  Lord  Strangford, 
resjjecting  his  collateral  ancestor  Sir  John 
Smith,  '  onely  Sonne  to  Sir  Thomas  Smith, 
Governor  of  the  East  India  Company,  &c.,' 
to  whom  the  work  is  dedicated,  and  his 
descendants. 

"  At  the  end  is  a  metrical  paraphrase 
upon  the  first  eight  verses  of  the  twelfth 
chapter  of  Ecclesiastes,  of  which  the  follow- 
ing is  a  specimen  : — 


*  Oh,  do  not  thou  the  [evil]  time  till  then  pi 

long, 
Bat    iiiinde    him,   whilst  the    silver  cord

Now,    whilst   the    golden    ewer  uiicras'd  is

And  at  the  fountain-head  the  pitcher  sound. 
Beftiru  the  wheel  be  at  the  cistern  tore, 
Or,  dust  grow  earth,  as  eartii  it  was  before  : 
And,  from  the  bodies  quite  dissolved  frame, 
The  soul    returns   to  God,   from  whence  it 

came.' 

"This  is  one  of  the  scarcer  pieces;  the 
only  copy  noticed  by  Lowndes  was  the  one 
in  the  Bibliotheca  Auglo-Poetica." — Lilly^s 
Cat.  for  1862.

commences  with  '  A  Sonnet,  wherein  all 
creatures  are  provoked  to  joyne  together 
in  prayse  of  their  Almightie  Creator,'  of 
ttoo  pages,  which  lyric  paraphrase  of  the 
CXLVill.  Psalme  is  reprinted  at  length 
on  account  of  its  great  excellency  in  the 
British  Bibliographer ;  and  at  the  end  are 
nine  pages  in  verse,  namely  '  A  Soliloquy, 
or  the  Author's  Preparation  of  himself  unto

This  edition  includes  not  only  tlie  Motto,

the  stationer  has  a  notice  to  the  effect  that 
three  or  four  of  the  Songs  in  the  Pkilarete

the  Workes  of  George  Withe)',  8°,  1620. 

In  the  present  copy  is  inserted  a  printed

to  exist  elsewhere  :  "  The  Poems  of  Geo:

the  remaining  contents  of  Juvenilia,  1622, 
with  the  addition  of  the  3Iotto  and  Pkilarete, 
as  the  pieces  to  form  the  first  volume.  The 
second  volume  was  to  contain  Britain's  Re-

sold copies  of  1628.  Compare  Mr  Huth's

Three  Private  Meditations  which  being, 
for  the  most  Part,  of  Publick  Concern-

Author  Geo.  Wither.  The  first  is  a 
Private  Thanksgiving,  consisting  of  three 
Hymns,  whereby  God  is  magnified  for 
his  Mercy  vouchsafed  in  the  late  Engage- 
ment between  the  English  and  the  Dutch, 
in  June,  1665.  Composed  after  Celebrat- 
ing the  Publick  Thanksgiving  commanded 
by  the  King. 

The  Second  is  a  Sacrifice  of  Praise  and 
Prayer,  by  him  offered  to  Almighty  God, 
for  his  providential  respect  to  Him,  his 
Wife  and  Children,  during  his  imprison- 
ment in  the  disgraceful  Goal  of  Newgate, 
when  left  destitute  of  all  ordinary  means 
of  subsistance,  by  being  deprived  of  his 
Estate  and  Liberty. 

The  Third,  Intituled,  Nil  Ultra,  is  a 
Soliloquium,  wherein  this  Author  ex- 
presses the  improbability  of  an  effectual 
proceeding  further  to  prevent  the  Sins  & 
Plagues  increasing,  by  ought  which  he 
can  offer  to  consideration. 
Imprinted  in  the  Year,  1665.  8^,  F  in

Imprinted  by  lohn  Wolfe.  .  .  .  1582. 

The  only  perfect  copy  known  is  that 
which  was  formerly  in  the  B.  A.  Poetica, 
and  which,  after  j)assing  through  the  hands 
of  Midgley  and  Sykes,  was  purchased  by 
Mr  Heber,  who  completed  it  from  another. 
It  is  now  at  Britwell.  At  the  sale  of  the 
7th  portion  of  Mr  Corser's  books  (July 
12, 1871)  two  copies  of  Yates  occurred,  both 
imperfect,  one  from  Heber's  sale,  part  8 
(the  missing  portion  having  gone  to  make 
up  the  B.  A.  P.  copy).  I  bought  both,  but 
discovered  that  they  would  not  make  a 
complete  one  between  them. 

In  one  of  the  Corser  copies  the  words 
compiled  and  servingman  on  the  title  of  the 
Hold  of  Humility  were  printed  in  large 
black  letter,  in  the  other,  in  roman  of 
smaller  size,  shewing  apparently  a  change 
made  at  press.

GAINSFORD,  THOMAS. 
Rich  Cabinet.  .  .  .  1616. 

This  is  a  very  curious  and  amusing  book, 
chiefly  consisting  of  original  observations, 
ranged  under  heads  in  the  order  of  the 
alphabet.  The  allusion  to  Robin  Goodfellow 
at  folio  98  verso,  and  the  description  of  the 
Player  (folio  116-18),  as  he  appeared  in 
1616,  are  particularly  instructive  and  enter- 
taining. Some  old  proverbs,  not  found 
elsewhere,  occur  here.  Under  "  merchant " 
there  are  some  interesting  paragraphs.  The 
volume  is  as  rare  as  it  is  curious,  only  two 
copies  having  occurred  for  sale. 

It  appears  from  the  Address  of  the  Printer 
to  the  Reader  that  this  was  an  enlarged 
and  more  methodically  digested  issue  of  an 
earlier  publication. 

The  section  devoted  to  Player  will  be 
found  reprinted  in  English  Drama  and 
Stage,  1869  (Roxburghe  Library  Series).

1700,  and  1743,  all  three  volumes  octavo. 
It  is  a  version  incomparably  superior  to 
Florio's,  where  we  miss  almost  altogether 
the  freedom  and  idiomatic  raciness  of  the 
original.  Both  works  have  their  errors, 
as  there  are  passages  which  seem  to  have 
been  misunderstood.

1650,  which  appears  to  have  been  employed 
by  Cotton,  while  at  work  on  his  Montaigne,
