preface. 
 
 IHE present Work does not assume to be exhaustive, for that would 
 have scarcely been the case, perhaps, had the labours of two or 
 three lives been devoted to it. 
 
 But it does assume to be a very important advance upon every 
 previous undertaking of the kind. 
 
 It has been produced, it may be said, quite irrespectively of the time, 
 toil, and even pecuniary outlay which it has entailed ; and, whatever faults 
 it may exhibit ought to be criticised, therefore, with a certain share of tender- 
 ness and forbearance. Bibliography is essentially a Progressive Science. 
 
 It was my desire to have refrained from any observations which might 
 seem to impugn the value of former publications, or to exaggerate the value 
 of this one. But I apprehend that readers, as a rule, are rather apt to mis- 
 understand the character, aim, and special usefulness of any new claimant to 
 their patronage, unless the facts of the case are pretty broadly stated ; and the 
 twofold consideration of the very arduous labour expended on these pages, and 
 of the very slight probability that this labour will ever be at all adequately 
 recompensed, appeared to me to deprive of some portion of its egotism an ex- 
 planation purely intended to place the book before the public in its true light 
 
 as one which renders some substantial service to Early English Literattire,- 
 
 without doing all that might be possible, or even aU that I could wish. 
 
 it will be expected that I should introduce some account of preceding 
 works of reference and books of an analogous description already existing in 
 our language. 
 
 These are, then (enumerating at random) Ames, Herbert, and Dibdin ; 
 Lowndes ; Blades ; the BiUiotheca GremvUUcma; the BMiotheca Heheriana ; 
 Ritson's BihUographia } Collier's Bihliogrofphical Catalogue; the Eev. T. 
 Corser's GoUectamm Anglo-Foetica; and, lastly, the Catalogue of the Society 
 of Antiquaries' Broadsides, &c., just completed. 
 
 These are books of very unequal value and weight, and they are bo for 
 different reasons. 
 
PREPACTE. 
 
 Ames wrote at a time when information on these subjects was so very im- 
 perfect that his original draft of the Typographical Antiquities is hardly worth 
 consulting. He was a very paiastaking man, and, so far as his opportunities 
 allowed, did justice to his book and to the public. For many years Ames was 
 the sole authority upon our typographical antiquities, and this circumstance 
 can only be explained by assuming that the interest felt in those antiquities 
 was rather a languid one. 
 
 Herbert cannot, on the whole, be too highly commended. If he had had 
 a successor worthy of him, an admirable work might have been the result ; 
 but in Dibdin we find a man of very inferior calibre. Dibdin added to Her- 
 bert, and, so to speak, reprinted him ; but this reproduction is not only imper- 
 fect (for which the Editor was probably not answerable), but it abounds with 
 the siUiest blunders and most inexcusable negligences. As a Picture-Book, it 
 wUl always hold its position. 
 
 Lowndes went further than Herbert and his follower, and gives us a good 
 deal which was unknown to both of these gentlemen, and a good deal, of 
 course, which did not fall within their scopes. To the bibliographer and col- 
 lector of 1834, the Bibliographer's Manual was a valuable present. In thirty 
 years it has become an anachronism. 
 
 I shall do no more than allude to a recent reprint of Lowndes, for the less 
 that is said about it the better. Everybody who cares about such matters 
 must be familiar with its character, and it would be invidious for me to en- 
 large here. It may have been a well-meant scheme. 
 
 The work of Mr. Blades would not be enhanced in worth by any criticism 
 of mine ; it is one of those too scarce publications which do honour to aU 
 parties concerned. For a description of such Caxtons as I have had occasion 
 to introduce here, I am exclusively indebted to Mr. Blades. Dibdin is no 
 authority on this or any other point. 
 
 The Bibliotheca HeberioMa and Grenvilliana have been of service, especially 
 the latter. The weakness of the book seems to be that it overstates the value 
 of the articles occasionally, and in some of those cases, where detection is most 
 difficult, is guilty of serious misprints or errors. 
 
 Eitson's Bibliographia Poetica, 1802, was an important work of reference 
 at the time when it appeared, and continued to be so long after. There are 
 many who quote it even now. But its sins of omission and commission are 
 very numerous and grave indeed. There is so much to be said, however, in 
 Eitson's favour, that, where he had the opportunity, he never failed to inspect 
 a volume for himself, and in such case described it with praiseworthy exactitude. 
 The great interest and value of Mr. CoUier's Bibliographical Catalogue, 
 1865, and Mr. Corser's Collectanea Anglo-Poetica (A and B only) consist in the 
 circumstance that the accounts of works are derived from a personal examina- 
 
PBEPACE. VU 
 
 tion of the old copies, and not second-hand or third-hand. The labours of 
 both these gentlemen have been of eminent service to me, and it would only 
 be regarded as a piece of ungraceful hypercritioism if I were to enter into the 
 ■question how far their most creditable publications are implicitly trustworthy. 
 It will be a source of gratification to myself to discover that I am as near being 
 so, as Mr. Collier and Mr. Corser. 
 
 The British Bibliographer, Gensura Litera/ria, and Besfituta of Brydges, 
 Haslewood, &o., have supplied me with much serviceable information ; but, on 
 the other hand, I have found that a great deal of cantion was necessary in 
 dealing with those pubKcations, and not with them alone, but with all others 
 of or about the same date. 
 
 The Bibliotheca Anglo-Poetica famishes very little which does not occur 
 elsewhere in a more accurate and satisfactory shape ; but in a few instances I 
 have been obliged to resort to it. Its editor, I apprehend, was not a man of 
 extensive information, nor a particularly careful corrector of the press. 
 
 It was, in point of fact, a superior kind of sale-catalogue, and sale- 
 catalogues, as a rule, are most uncertain and treacherous guides. Mr. JoUey's 
 Catalogues, extending (intermittently) from 1843 to 1853, if not beyond, were 
 I have understood, prepared by himself, and yet they present the most unfor- 
 tunate slips of the pen or the compositor. I take it, that Lowndes drew very 
 largely upon this description of authority, and perhaps, if he had not, we should 
 have had a better book. I think that I could undertake to prove that his 
 feuccessor has done the same. 
 
 Independently of aU the foregoing sources of information, there is one stUl 
 to be adverted to, and it is the sum and extent of my own researches. I am 
 happily in a position to assert that here, for the first time, hund/reds of wnique 
 or nea/rVy umqwa volumes are set down from the examination of the originals 
 by myself, and, apart from that, a large number of early English books of the 
 first rarity are catalogued agreeably to the descriptions forwarded to me from 
 Oxford and Cambridge by gentlemen whose precision I have no ground to 
 doubt. 
 
 The British Museum has acquired of late years a rich supplement of im- 
 portant articles in the class of literature which I have endeavoured to. treat, 
 and every use has been made of the extraordinary assemblage of title pages, 
 which are preserved in the MS. Department of the Museum (Harl. MSS. 
 5900-39), and in the Printed Book Department under the press-mark 
 463, h. The latter collection, which has never hitherto been examined, was 
 most kindly pointed out to me by a gentleman in the MS. room ; the title-pages, 
 &c., which are pasted, like those in the Harleian MSS., into large folio volumes, 
 were discovered ia a chest at a date posterior to the publication, I believe, 
 of the .old catalogue. 
 
PREFACE. 
 
 ■ Both these collections have been of the highest use to me, and a minute 
 investigation of their contents has convinced me that they have remained, so 
 far as the generality of readers and bibliographers is concerned, sealed books 
 down to the present time, especially the latter. There are 48 volumes of them 
 altoffether. but of these several are devoted exclusively to foreign literature and 
 to the literature of Bagford's own day. 
 
 It was at first my intention and wish to have incorporated with this 
 book the entire contents of the Koxburghe collection of Ballads in 3 
 volumes, folio, acquired by purchase for the nation at Mr. Bright's sale in 
 1845 ; but I amved, on consideration, at the conclusion that they would occupy 
 so much space as to add materially to the bulk and (as a consequence) to the 
 costliness of the work; and I must leave that portion of the task to other hands. 
 At the same time, many of the earlier ballads have been given, arranged 
 under various heads, and, about one thousand articles of this kind, belong- 
 ing to the collections of Pepys, "Wood, &c., appear in their places. The 
 entire contents of the Elizabethan Gaa-lcmd, 1856, and of Mr. HalliweU's 
 Catalogue, printed in the same year, are also amalgamated. The same may be 
 said of a large proportion of the ballads and broadsides, the property of the 
 Society of Antiquaries. 
 
 In the Bibliographer's Manual the practice has been adopted of affixing 
 the prices at which each article (of any importance) has been sold during 
 the present century, but unluckily there is no reliance on the figures given, 
 and no chronological arrangement has been attempted; so that, to all per- 
 sons who are not very intimately acquainted with the period at which, and the 
 circumstances also under which, the particidai' books were sold, this feature is 
 not of the slightest practical utUity. 
 
 Probably it would be of very little use, even if the notion had been pro- 
 perly carried out. In the case of rare books, so much depends on the con- 
 dition, internal and external, that in the absence of rather elaborate explana- 
 tions and descriptions, it is impossible for anybody to judge by comparison 
 what is the relative value of a volume in his possession or in the market. 
 
 So far as the present publication is concerned, prices are not furnished as 
 a ride, nor have I professed to supply them in every instance, even* where, in 
 Lowndes perhaps, for example, a long array of figures is exhibited to view. 
 Where I have added the prices at which a volume has been sold, I have endea- 
 voured to do so with a strict attention to chronological propriety, and the sums 
 produced by unique or almost unique works, or works of unusually high inte- 
 rest, when brought to the hammer, have invariably been noted down. 
 
 Nor has it been thought irrelevant, here and there, to intersperse anec- 
 dotes connected with the sale, discovery, or fluctuating value of some of the 
 more remarkable remains of our early literature, where such anecdotes appeared 
 to be entitled to credit. 
 
PREFACE. IX 
 
 In the preparation of this "Work, I have had two classes of difficulty to 
 contend with, and, so far as I could, conquer. One was the necessity of hunt- 
 ing out editions of books and tracts which former bibliographers had neglected 
 to notice, and which I believed or suspected to exist ; and the second difficulty 
 was the weeding out of imaginary editions mentioned by Warton and his suc- 
 cessors. 
 
 My success in both these departments has been even beyond my expecta- 
 tions. I have been enabled to expunge impressions of volumes which certainly 
 never had being, and to incorporate, on the contrary, a large number of im- 
 pressions of which our elder antiquaries had no knowledge. The gain has 
 been double. 
 
 For example's or illustration's sake, I may refer to FnlweWaArs Adulamdi, 
 1576, the Ethiopian History of Heliodorus, 1569, and Howell's New Sormets 
 and Pretty Pamvphlets (hitherto supposed to be lost books). 
 
 Of the Booh of Merry Biddies, I cite eight editions, Lowndes (new ed.) 
 only four. Under Martin P.wrleer, Lowndes has about half-a-dozen pieces im- 
 perfectly described : I give nearly 40. Under Mderton, Lowndes has one 
 article : I have 15. To Alexander Julius he assigns five pieces (of which he 
 makes six by a blunder) : I assign to him 14 pieces. I might go on in the 
 same way through the Alphabet, from A to Z. But I must furnish one or 
 two more instances. Lowndes quotes editions of John Heywood's "Works in 
 1576 and 1577 ; but the truth is, that the edition of 1576 has in the Colophon 
 the date 1577 ', there was only one impression. Ovid's Remedie of Love, trans- 
 lated by F. L., was licensed in 1599, and printed in 1600 ; Lowndes, upon no 
 better ground than this, makes editions in both those years, whereas there was 
 but one — ^that of 1 600. 
 
 Lowndes (and others before and after him) asserts that John Heywood's 
 Play of Love was printed by John Rastell in 1533, and reprinted by E. "Wyer. 
 The only edition known was printed by John "Waley, and the only copy of 
 that yet seen has no title-page, but the fact is ascertained from the Colophon. 
 Even the name of the Drama is consequently conjectural. Lowndes also 
 mixes up together in hopeless confusion the Play of Love and the Play of the 
 
 The article Shakespeakb in these pages will not be quite so lengthy as it 
 appears in another place ; but it is trusted that it will make amends by being 
 more accurate. The present "Work, in fact, does not profess to deal with 
 Shakesperiana, or with the modem editions of the Poet, or with the translations 
 which exist in foreign languages ; it confines itself to the old English quartos 
 and folios. 
 
 Atteiition is solicited to the large assemblage of Garlands, which is now for 
 the first time brought together ; they range in date from 1624 to 1690, but 
 
X PREFACE. 
 
 the latter rest their claim to admittance solely on the fact that they are re- 
 prints of much earlier impressions. 
 
 Under Love, and again under Marriage, is arranged a very remarkable 
 series of anonymous pieces, ballads, and satirical broadsides, many of -which 
 are, it is apprehended, new to all but the most industrious bibliographers. 
 Sometimes it will be the production itself that is not kn6wn ; sometimes the 
 edition or editions of it. 
 
 I have placed under Wales a number of tracts, poetical and satirical, 
 (164,1 — 1C60) which have no mark of authorship, and which, like a very con- 
 siderable, proportion of the contents of this book, have never been catalogued 
 properly or completely before. Under Jest-Books and Drolleries the reader 
 will probably discover some articles which are fresh to him^ but he must expect 
 to be sent by cross-references to several publications, which I have preferred 
 to shift to other, and, as it seemed to me, more appropriate heads. 
 
 Respecting one point, a few words of explanation are unquestionably neces- 
 sary. All anonymous Dramas, instead of coming under their own titles, have 
 been collected into one body, and catalogued as Plays, Anonymous. 
 
 The diificulty of determining how to place many of these productions sug- 
 gested such a course ; and it cannot possibly be attended by much, if any, in- 
 convenience to readers, because, in the case of all dramatic works, which are 
 not assignable to an author, they will have merely to turn to Plays, where 
 they will meet with what they require in its chronological order. 
 
 I must observe that the doubtful Plays of Shakespeare have been made to 
 enter into this department ; for it was serving no good literary or indeed 
 bibliographical purpose to set down side by side with Dramas known to be by 
 Shakespeare, Dramas known not to be by him. 
 
 Independently of the old ballads incorporated with the book, there 
 are hundreds of broadsides. Where these related to counties, and the 
 writer's name was not traceable, they have been placed under the coimty 
 to which they belong. If I had follow,ed the old fashion, I should have 
 catalogued A Relation of the Murder of Mr. Jones, of Putney, or, The 
 True Loves of So-and-So, of Acton, under Jones and True, but according 
 to my plan they would come under Swrrey and Middlesex respectively. In 
 this way a humble contribution will be made to the history of nearly all tha 
 counties in England, Wales, and Scotland ; and collectors, as a class, are un- 
 doubtedly more interested in a ballad or a satire on account of its local bear- 
 ing, than in connection with the name or names which may appear in it, or 
 the mere title. Where books, or pamphlets, or sheets, are strictly anonymous, 
 and do not refer to any person of distinction, the very last resource, in my 
 opinion, is the title. In a purely topographical publication, a subdivision into 
 towns and particular localities would have been obviously preferable, but here 
 
PBEPACE. xi 
 
 no rnch refinement has been attempted, partly because the class of literature 
 which I have selected for treatment was so restricted, as well in its character, 
 as ia its date. 
 
 Upon the whole, it seemed to be due to my exertions, in order that some 
 idea might be formed of the improvements and corrections which I have been 
 able to introduce upon Ames, Herbert, Dibdin, Lowndes, and others, to distin- 
 guish by a mark those articles which are entirely new, or which have been so 
 imperfectly described by former bibliographers as to be almost worse than unde- 
 scribed ; and this has been indicated throughout by prefixing in such cases a +. 
 
 The most agreeable part of my duty remains. I have to acknowledge 
 myself the debtor of many noblemen and gentlemen who have responded to 
 my call for information and help. 
 
 At Oxford, the E,ev. H. O. Coxe, M.A., Keeper of the Bodleian, and 
 George "Waring, Esq., M.A., have been of very important service to me in 
 communicating particulars respecting the early literature deposited in that 
 noble institution. I have also to thank the Rev. I. H. Eld, Librarian of St. 
 John's College, for a kindness which he would have multiplied if I had 
 required it at his hands, and likewise the librarian of Corpus Christi College. 
 
 At Glasgow, my friend, John Alexander, Esq., has favoured me with some 
 notes on the valuable contents of the Hunterian Museum. 
 
 At Cambridge, Henry Bradshaw, Esq., of King's College, whose deep inte- 
 rest in this subject is so well known, supplied me with full and accurate intel- 
 ligence in regard to some of the precious volumes in the University Library, 
 now under his charge. W. Aldis Wright, Esq., F.S.A., performed a similar 
 service for me at Trinity College, where Capel's S/iakespea/riana have remained 
 to this day almost unexamined ! The Rev. W. C. Green, Eobert Potts, Esq., 
 and my friend, G. A. Greenhill, Esq., attended to my wants at St. John's 
 College, enriched by the donation of the Sooms Ejectus, Thomas Baker. Fran- 
 cis Pattrick, Esq., helped me most kindly at the Pepysian. 
 
 At Lambeth Palace, the Rev. WUliam Stubbs, M.A., Librarian to His 
 Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, most promptly and cordially complied 
 with my wishes, so far as the collections under his care were concerned. In 
 examining many choice volumes at Sion College, every facility was aflforded to 
 me by the Rev. Canon Milman. 
 
 I have experienced courtesies and assistance of various kinds from His 
 Grace the Duke of Devonshire, the Right Honourable Earl Eitzwilliam ; W. 
 Tite, Esq., M.P. ; the Rev. J. A. Hessey, D.C.L. ; J. O. Halliwell, Esq., 
 F.R.S. ; G. H. Kingsley, Esq., M.D., Librarian to the Right Honourable the 
 Earl of EUesme're ; James Maidment, Esq., Advocate ; the Rev. Alexander 
 Dyce, B. A*. ; Thomas Jones, Esq., of the Chetham Library, Manchester ; H. E. 
 Moberley, Esq., of Winchester College Library; C.W. Reynell, Esq.; and Mrs. 
 Sotheby. 
 
■^" PBEPACE. 
 
 The Right Honourable the Earl Spencer very kindly enabled me to ex- 
 amine all the books which suited my purpose in the fine collection at Althorp 
 Abbey, his Lordship's seat in Northamptonshire. 
 
 S. Christie Miller, Esq., M.P., treated my very frequent applications to him 
 for notices of books in his magnificent assemblage of Early English Poetry at 
 Britwell, in Buckinghamshire, with an uniform and untiring liberality, which 
 calls for special recognition ; and I have had the advantage throughout of the 
 profound intimacy which David Laing, Esq., of Edinburgh, enjoys with the 
 ancient literature of Scotland. 
 
 A free access to the noble library of Henry Huth, Esq., enabled me to 
 describe from the books themselves a large number of articles of the most pre- 
 cious description, which, I am assured, have never before been catalogued 
 under circumstances calculated to realise fidelity and precision. 
 
 Mr. P. S. EUis, of King Street, Covent Garden ; Messrs. T. and W. Boone, 
 of Bond Street ; Mr. B. M. Pickering, and Mr. Quaritch, of Piccadilly ; and 
 Messrs. N"atali and Bond, of Bedford Street, allowed me the free use of any 
 books which happened to be in their hands from time to time, and many of 
 these were of a rare and costly character. 
 
 Hundreds of unique or nearly unique works in Early English Poetry and 
 the Early English Drama will be found described in the following pages from 
 personal inspection. For the opportunity of giving an account of such inesti- 
 mable rarities, I am indebted to the treasures of the British Museum, which, 
 in addition to the wonderful resources of the Garrick, King's, and Grenville 
 Collections, has acquired of late years, by public and private purchases, a num- 
 ber of Early English books and tracts of extraordinary value and curiosity, 
 the bulk of them wholly unknown to former bibliographers. 
 
 For the greater part of the books of reference employed in the course of 
 this publication, I have been indebted to that valuable and old-established in- 
 stitution, the London Library, 12, St. James's Square.

 to be sold at his shop, at the Red Bull in 
 Little Brittaine. [1647, Novemb. 11th] 4to, 
 44 leaves. 
 
 It appears that between the publication of his 
 Jesus Frejlgwred, 1623, and that of the preceding 
 tract, Abbot changed his name to Rivers, or 
 rather added Rivers to his name, and was there- 
 fore known as John Abbot Rivers, or, as one of 
 the writers of commendatory verses before this 
 boolc puts it, Mr. Abbot, alias Rivers. 
 
 The work is divided into 8 SerTjutnes, as the 
 writer terms them, each of which is addressed 
 to a different person. The date inserted between 
 brackets is added to the copy preserved among 
 the King's pamphlets, B. M., in the well-known 
 coeval hand. A second is among Malone's books.

 The translator was Robert Copland, at this 
 time De Worde's apprentice. The story is to be 
 found in the Gesta Ronianovum. It was exceed- 
 ingly popular, and so early as 1471 was trans- 
 lated into Swedish. It is supposed that Shaltes- 
 peare founded his Ferioles upon the romance, of 
 which Copland's is the earliest version in our

 This appears to be a different impression from 
 the former, though printed by East, without 
 date, in folio, likewise. The terms of the title 
 vary. East's editions appear to be a mere re- 
 print of Copland's.

 and 1S16, 24mo, 3 vols, under the care of Joseph

 formed their work in a most slovenly manner. It 
 is now included in the Library of Old Attthors, 
 edited by T. Wright, Esq., 1868 and (second 
 edition) 1866, 3 vols. Mr. Wright has corrected 
 the obvious blunders and misprints of 1634 by 
 the help of Caxton's edition, and has given 
 Caxton's Prologue at length.

 haue forgot the Latin tonge, and would, by 
 themselues, without a Scholemaster, in short

 cient habilitie, to vnderstand, write, and

 This impression is much rarer than those of 
 1570 and 1571. Ascham composed this excellent 
 Treatise, of which there are many modern edi- 
 tious, in 1563, at the request of Sir Richard 
 SaokviUe. In Ascham's Works, ed. Giles, 1866. 
 It appears fi'om the entry of this hook to Day 
 in the Stationers' hooks, that it was originally 
 entitled " The Scholemaister of Windsore." 
 
 In Botfield's Bibliotheca Hearniana, 1847, p. 
 23, an ed., 1569, is cited, probably a mistake. 
 Ascham has verses before Blundevile's Fruyfes 
 qfFoes, ISfil. An account of his other works 
 and their editions may be found in Dr. Giles's 
 collective reprint.

 From some verses entitled " The Printer to 
 the Reader," on the lack of the title of this 
 tract, it appears that the former was also the 
 author, and that its publication was owing to 
 the apprehension of a vagabond, who was par- 
 doned on condition that he revealed the secret* 
 of his profession. There is very little, however, 
 here, that is not to be found in Barman's 
 Caveat.

 From the terms of this colophon it is at once 
 apparent that W, de Worde printed an edition 
 (now lost) in 1504. Some copies of Copland's 
 edition vary in the colophon, and purport to be 
 printed by W. Copland for Thomas Petet, or for 
 Bohert Toye. It seem.s to have been a trada edi- 
 tion. The romance was licensed to T. East in

 The history of the Bodleian copy, formerly 
 Malone's, is told by Prior, Life of E. M.y p. 
 177 :— " "Towards the end of the year [1791J, a 
 present from a friend put him in possession of a 
 small volume of ancient English verse, of which, 
 by an alluring table of contents, anadmirer of 
 that age might reasonably be proud.

 hamj 1596." 
 * * * . * * 
 " The History of this book [notes Malone him- 
 self] is curious. It was sold at the sale of Dr. 
 Bernard's books in 1690 for one shilling and 
 threepence. Afterwards, probably passing 
 through man.v hands, it came into the posses- 
 sion of a broker at Salisbury, where, about 
 thirty years ago, Mr Warton found it among a- 
 parcel of old iron and other lumber, and, I think, 
 purchased it for sixpence. Since his death, his 
 brother, Dr. Joseph Warton, very kindly pre- 
 sented it to me The very, rare copy of 
 
 Bhakespeare'3 Vem/as and Adonis, 1596, origi- 
 nally made part of this volume, but on rebind- 
 ing it I took out that piece in order to place it 
 with my other early editions of Shakespeare's 
 pieces. I have also changed the place of Con- 
 stable's Sonnets, which originally did not stand 
 in the front of this little volume," — B, Malone, 
 Dec, 1, 1791, 
 
 *' The Address to the Readers before this pre- 
 cious little volume is very interesting, as Barne- 
 fielde in it denies the authorship of two books 
 imputed to him, one of which no doubt was 
 "Greenes Funerals, by R. B.," 1594, and the 
 other probably " Orpheus his Journey to Hell, 
 by R, B ," 1595, He at the same time acknow- 
 ledges "The Affectionate Shepherd" to be his. 
 
 Of the present work he observes that it is " the 
 first imitation of the verse of that excelleiitpoet 
 Maister Spencer in his Fayrie Queene," — Bibl. 
 Echer.

 — 1. The Decameron, containing an hundred 
 
 pleasant Novels, wittily discoursed between 
 
 seven honourable Ladies and three noble 
 
 Gentlemen. In two Parts. Lond. 1620. 
 
 Folio. Woodcut titles. In some copies the 
 
 title to the first part bears date 1625, but 
 
 the firrt part was originally issued in 1620. 
 
 The translation (the earliest known one in our 
 
 languaA'e) is anonymous : it was probably the 
 
 work of more than one hand. 
 
 In 1619, the publication of the Decameron in 
 English was prohibited by the Archbp of 
 Canterbury, but it is to be presumed that his 
 Grace's scruples were somehow overcome.

 Mr. CoTser has a copy purchased at an auc-

 £18. 183. It occurred again in a catalogue 
 for 1865 at £26 : the last leaf as in Mr. Cor- 
 ser's, was deficient. It is remarkable that of 
 the four known exemplars of this valu- 
 able volume, two should have cancel slips 
 pasted over places, where it had been dis- 
 covered, subsequently to publication, that cer- 
 tain poems were not attributed to the true 
 authors. See Collier's Bihl. Cat i. 71-3.

 are known.

 It appears from some very curious Latin 
 Poems, by an anonymous writer, called De- 
 aoripius Norfolcunsium, that the cradle of the 
 Gothamite tales was in Norfolk. These poems 
 are assigned to the 13th Century by Mr. Wright,

 In 1676, a fraudulent bookseller put forth a 
 pamphlet which he styled Tlie History of the 
 Life and Death of Wil Summers, King Henry the 
 * Eighth's Jester, but it has not the remotest 
 claim to originality, being merely the Jests of 
 Scogin in a new coat. 
 
 Borde, no doubt, was a reader of Chaucer and 
 Gower, to whose Confeiisio he may have been 
 indebted for his knowledge of Aristotle and the 
 philosophy of the ancient schoolmen

 The title (engraved by W. Marshall) is' on 
 A 2 ; A and A 1 were probably blank, and 
 so is (A 12). There is also a printed title, 
 as above (A 3). 
 
 Attributed to Brathwaite by Mr. Crossley, on 
 internal evidence in which I hardly know 
 whether to concur or not. Is it not too good 
 for him? My own impression is, that Ban- 
 dolph having left the MS. behind him, it was 
 put into Brathwaite's hands to edit, and by 
 him famished with ^q Bratlvwaitia% touches 
 the piece, as it has come down to us, exhibits. 
 It is dedicated to Brathwaite's friend, Sir Alex- 
 ander Radcliffe, E.B.

 have also a print of an altar with Cupid and 
 a pair of bellows and two flaming hearts. 
 This, however, probably belongs to The Two

 MadrigaU, to his Coy-duck Clarabel," and a 
 poem called "Love's Fesiivall at Lvsts

 graved frontispiece by R. Va.ughan, in which 
 a prisoner is looking through the grates of a 
 window. 
 
 This book was written in 1633, but was not 
 published till 26 years after. It seems to relate 
 some of the incidents in the author's earlier life, 
 when he was a prisoner for debt, and possibly 
 the representation in the frontispiece may have 
 a personal allusion. There are copies on large 
 fine paper, one of which sold at Dr. Bliss's sale, 
 in 1858, for £8. 16s. It had been Haslewood's. 
 
 The second part has a separate title and sub- 
 ject-matter, and is called '* The Age for Apes, a 
 series of short po'ems, illustrating the tricks of 
 the Ape ofHonov/r, the Ape of Pleasv/re^'' &e. 
 
 Mr. Haslewood wrote in his copy : " This copy 
 is on a better paper and rather larger than usual, 
 with the two several titles of the small and 
 larger paper, and both the plates. It is, in fact, 
 a large paper copy, which is of the greatest 
 rarity."

 Among the Fairfax MSS. is a similar tract 
 written partly before Brathwaite's time, and 
 perhaps this author merely enlarged the trea-

 one or two extant MSS.

 because he found that the 20th June, 1518, was

 may be in the colophon. Dr. Blis.s had a copy 
 of this ed., but it was very imperfect. The,

 it ever had one, which from there being 6 leaves

 " The Chordifjcra above-mentioned was writ-

 engaged together iu the war with France, under 
 King Henry the 8th. In it the author, not con- 
 tent with praising the valour of his country- 
 men, indulged in many opprobrious expressions 
 against the English. Sir Thomas More ridiculed, 
 iu several of his epigrams, the extravagances of 
 this Frenchman, and extorted in reply the Anti- 
 morus ; and, in order that his friends might 
 have a proper view of the affair, himself re- 
 printed it, with Erasmus's letter, his epigiams, 
 and other papers attached, but afterwards, by 
 the advice of Erasmus; destroyed them 'all, 
 with the exception only of the two copies sent 
 to thee (Erasmus) and ^gidius, and five others

 This book was licensed as early as 1594, but 
 the edition of 1652 is the only one which I have 
 met with or heajd of. The following are the 
 terms of its original entry in the Stationers' 
 Registers : 
 
 "xvto Junij [1594] Thorns. Creede. Entred for 
 his copie a booke intituled The troublesom 
 and hard aduentures in loue, with many fyiie 
 conceyted sonnettes and pretty poemes, de- 
 lightful! to the reader. Written in Turkey by 
 
 E. C vjd." 
 
 Creed's edition may exist in some unexplored 
 repository, and come to light hereafter. It is 
 extremely doubtful whether this was really the 
 work of Cervantes, though it has been usually 
 ascribed to his pen.

 Mr. Heber liad two copies of this piece, differ- 
 ing in the dedication altogether and in the Ad- 
 dress to the Reader. In one the former was to 
 Maister Willidm Jarret, Attorney Generall, &c., 
 and in the second to 11. GiJierl Gerrard. The 
 variations in the two addresses to the Reader 
 were merely literal, however. The preliminary 
 matter must have been printed twice. 
 
 " This tract refers to the Queen's Progress in 
 1678. Churchyard tells us tliat he, Henry Gol- 
 dingham and Bernard Garter were employed to 
 prepare the shews, and that the productions of 
 his coadjutors had already been printed. Tlie 
 Welco'raeHome to Martin Frobisher is not men- 
 tioned in the title-page, and is wanting in more 
 than one existing copy of this tract. As Fro- 
 bisher returned while it was printing, some 
 copies were probably issued witliout this addi-

 up with the Chippes, 1676, was sold at Puttioks

 The author, in his dedication to Sir John 
 Walley, states that he chose this title, because 
 he thereby challenged the authorship of the 
 volume. His claim to the Tragedy of Shores 
 Wife had been more particularly questioned, as 
 he informs Lady Mount-Kagle in an inscription 
 to her of that poem on its present appearance. 
 It was originally printed in the Mirror for 
 Magistrates, but is reproduced here with addi- 
 tions and alterations. '

 This appears to be the first impression. It 
 omits in the Complaint of Rosa/numd 23 Sonnets 
 which are found in all others. Mr. Collier is of 
 opinion that the Rosamond was printed sepa- 
 rately and earlier, and afterwards appended to 
 the Ddia, being in a different type. 
 
 To any future editor of Daniel a collation of 
 the present copy would be indispensable, as it 
 exhibits -some important various readings.

 A reissue of the former article, with a new 
 title-page. Mr. Heber seems to have been of 
 opinion that this edition (or' issue), though 
 dated 1616, was not really published till after ^ 
 the appearance of the Flow&rs of Swn, 1623. 
 There are copies on large paper. Farmer, in

 There is a copy in the Bodleian, which appeal's 
 to be a set of proof sheets, printed on one side 
 only, and bound up by the poet to send to some 
 friend abroad. It is substantially identical 
 with the common edition of 1616, but it has a 
 differing title. It was purchased of Rodd the 
 bookseller for more than £30.

 before 1603, but no copy has been found. This 
 piece was probably popular in England as well 
 as in Scotland, and the anonymous author of the 
 History of Fryar Bacon has introduced into his 
 narrative particulars which are also found here. 
 
 All the known or surviving works of this great 
 writer have been collected by Mr. David Laing 
 (2 vols, 8vo, 1834, and a Supplement, 1886), with 
 his usual accuracy and affection for his self- 
 appointed tasks.

 In his copy, Malone has written that it is 
 merely a reissue of the book with a fresh title, 
 in which opinion he was mistaken, for it con- 
 tains alterations and additions. Bibliographers, 
 generally, have supposed this to be the 4th 
 Edition, which I take to be a decided error. 
 There was a date to the book, but in Malone's 
 copy it has been rubbed out, and 1 do not know 
 where to refer to a second.

 FLETCHER (Anthony). — Certaine very 
 proper, and most profitable Similes, wherein 
 Eundrie, and very many, most foule vices, 
 and dangerous sinnes, of all sorts, are so 
 plainly laid open, and displaied in their 
 kindes, and so pointed at with the finger of 
 God, in his sacred and holy Scriptures, to 
 signifie his wrath and indignation belonging 
 vnto them, that the Christian Reader, being 
 seasoned with the spirit of grace, and hauing 
 God before his eies,' will be very f earfull, euen 
 in loue that he beareth to God, to pollute 
 and to defile, his hart, his mind, his mouth 
 or hands, with any such forbidden things. 
 And also manie very notable vertues, with 
 their due commendations, so liuely and 
 truly expressed, according to the holy word, 
 that the godly Reader, being of a Christian 
 inclination, wUl be mightily inflamed with a 
 loue vnto them. 
 
 Collected Anthonie Fletcher, minister of the 
 word of God, in vnfained loue in the Lord 
 Jesu, to do the best, and all that he can, to 
 pleasure, and to profite all those, that desire 
 to know the Lords waies, and to walke in the 
 same.

 t FOBTTTNATTJS.— The Right, Pleasant, 
 and Variable Tragical History of Fortunatus. 
 Whereby a Young-man may learn how to 
 behave himself in all Worldly Affairs and 
 Casual Chances. First penned in the Dutch 
 Tongue : There hence Abstracted, and now 
 first of all Published in English ; By T. C. 
 London, Printed by A. Purslow, for George 
 
 Saubridge, at the Sign of the Bible on Lud- 
 gate Hill, near Fleet-Bridge. 1676. 8vo. 
 Black letter, 95 leaves. J. P. Collier, Esq. 
 
 At the back of the title-page are 9 stanzas in 
 verse headed "The Moral Documents and con- 
 siderations, which are to be noted in this book." 
 Then, on the next leaf, an address "To the 
 Readers," stating that T. C, (Thomas Church- 
 yard) had abridged the original, which abridge- 
 ment would " seem to Men of good Judgement 
 more worthy of the Printers travel than many 
 vain pamphlets, ballads, songs and dallying 
 devices, tending only to the artificial cloaking of 
 vice, and muzzling of Amorous Heads therein." 
 His omissions, he adds, were "childish and 
 superfluous inventions, intermingled with some 
 sparks of prophane superstition," and he avows 
 that he had not attempted "a literal transla- 
 tion." This address is followed by two closely 
 printed pages of 14 syllable verse, exactly in 
 old Churchyard's style, and entitled "The Sura 
 and Argument of this Book." It ingeniously 
 compresses into a small compass all the main 
 incidents, beginning, 
 
 " A lusty youth in prime of years, his Father's 
 only child," ' 
 
 and ending, 
 
 "This is the sura and whole effect of this 
 most pleasant history." 
 The body of the book then begins with 
 *' Chap. I. Of the birth of Fortunatus," and 
 ends with Chap. 47, How Andalocia, when his' 
 purse was gone, was also murthered himself in 
 prison." The woodcuts are numerous, some 
 of them clearly from foreign designs, and others 
 merely English, but all much older than the 
 date of the book, worm-holed, and very curious 
 and remarkable. 
 
 Compare Churchyard, T. This is an edition 
 six years earlier in date than any hitherto men- 
 tioned. This notice of it was communicated to 
 me by Mr. Collier, after Art. Chdrohyard had 
 been printed off.

 First Edition of both volumes, a worlt of pecu- 
 liar rarity, in a complete and sound state. Even 
 at the present time we are in a state of doubt 
 as to how often Pynson printed the book by 
 himself or with William Myddylton, and Mr. 
 Utterson has done very little, in his reprint, 
 towards setting us right. There can be no ques- 
 tion that copies are as often as not made up 
 from Myddylton's later and less valuable impres- 
 sion, and it is probable that this may have been 
 done even at or about the time of publication, 
 since the only difference among all the impres- 
 sions seems to be in the wording and arrange- 
 ment of the colophon. The text remained un- 
 altered.

 Some copies of this book are called upon the 
 title, "The Pleasauntest Workes of George 
 Gascoigne Esqujre," which was probably sub- 
 stituted for the other, when it was found to be 
 undesirable to reproduce, in 1687, all that 
 Gascoigne had left behind him. Yet this was 
 nearly accomplished, the Delicate Diet, &c., 
 being the only piece which was never reprinted 
 uniformly with the rest. It is questionable 
 whether the Droome of Doomes Day (1586, 4to) 
 should not form part of the volume entitled 
 Works, with the date 1687.

 A fragment of this Romance, consisting of

 iudged) by W. de Worde, is in the library of 
 Trinity Coll. Camb. It was found by Henry 
 Bradshaw, Esq. , in the binding of an old Latin 
 book formerly belonging to Edmund Castell the 
 lexicogra,pher, and, such as it is, it has been re- 
 produced entire in the Introd. to Mr. Fumivall's 
 edition of Gmcrides, 1835. Mr. FurnivaU 
 
GENINQES.

 GERMANY. 
 
 printed from the ToUemaelie MS., wliioh is a 
 diiierent translation from tlie original French. 
 It is curious that of a romance, of which there 
 have been made two distinct versions, appa- 
 rently quite independent of each other, and one 
 of them printed, all knowledge should have 
 been withheld till lately ; but sueh is the case 
 with Generides, the very name of which was un- 
 heard of till Mr. Furnivall brought to light the 
 ToUemache MS. It was this which led to the 
 subsequent discovery of the old English black 
 letter fragment. For a more partici^r account 
 of Generides and its original, the French ro- 
 mance of Eledus et Serene, see Mr. Fumivall's 
 Introduction to the Roxburghe Club ed. 
 
 Other fragments, also taken from the binding 
 of an old book, are among Sir John Fenn's 
 papers at Dungate. They are likewise printed 
 in the Roxb. Club, edit (Postscript.)

 and, after Greene's death, between Han'ey and 
 Nash, who espoused Greene's cause — a very weak 
 one, considering that Greene stole the greater 
 part of his material from Thynne's Debate be- 
 tweene Prideand LowUnes, printed some twenty 
 years before. It is safely assumable that Harvey 
 was ^ignorant of this circumstance. One of the

 This is the earliest known edition, and is

 earlier impressions than any now known, for 
 the book was licensed in the following terms :

 and has a separate title. It was ready for the

 occurred, nor is it l^nown to have been published

 (6) The Glasse of Mans Folly and Meanes to 
 Amendement of Life, for the health and

 This Glasse of Mans folly, is that we may know. 
 The cause of the cruelty, which dayly doth flow. 
 Such powling, such pilfring, such gryping for gaine, 
 And such greedy gathering, as purchase our paine. 
 Such Whores and such Theeues, Banlo-outs, and 
 
 Beggers, 
 Quarrellers, Fighters, and mercilesse Murtherers. 
 Such wrangling for wealth, and care for to get, 
 Such losse of soule health, as canker shall fret. 
 Such euili, and such envy, heart-liatred and strife, 
 Such seruing of Satan betweene Man and Wife. 
 In this Booke is shewed, diaholms deuises. 
 And also reproued, his subtill enterprises. 
 Therefore, (gentle Reader) deale thou not so rashly. 
 To reprove with reproaching the thing that mislikes 
 
 thee. 
 The Learned allowes this, which vertue embrace, 
 For none but ill actions, it seekes to deface. 
 And if it doe touch tliee, turne prating to praying. 
 Least Zelotipus Dens, correct thy gaine-saying.

 some few typographical particulars, which were

 2. Tie Anatomy of 'the Metamorphosed Aiax. 
 At London : Imprinted by Richard Field 
 dwelhng in the Blaokfriara. 1596. 8vo. 
 
 Although this portion purports to have pro- 
 ceeded from an independent pen, it is scarcely 
 to be questioned that it was Harington's own 
 composition. The AnatoTny did not appear till 
 after the publication of the second impression 
 of the Discourse^ and was then annexed to it 
 with continuous signatures. There were two 
 distinct impressions ot it.

 [October, 1596]. 8vo, 27 leaves. Bodleian 
 (Deuce's books). 
 
 Published without any regular title page. 
 As the Apoiogie commences on A a, it was 
 intended, presumably, to be bound up with the 
 two other portions. 
 
 4. YUsses vpon Aiax. Written by Misodiaboles 
 to his friend Philaretes. At London Printed 
 for Thomas Gubbins, 1696. 8vo. A to D 
 in eights, or 32 leaves. Bodleian (Douce). 
 
 Two impressions the same year, both printed 
 for T. Gubbins, but differing typographically 
 and in the number of pages ; there are a few 
 marginal notes in one of these, which do not 
 occur in the other. Davies of Hereford supposed 
 the Ulysses to be the work: of a different hand, as 
 appears from some lines addressed to Sir John 
 in Wits Bedlam, 1617, and it is not altogether im- 
 probable that such may have been the case, al- 
 tliough the similarity of style would be against 
 the theory. 
 
 The copy in Bibl Heber, vi, 1380, was pre- 
 sented by the author to T. Markham, a relative 
 by marriage of the Haringtons ; the Discourse and 
 the Atiatomie were on thick paper, and the 
 Ulysses wpan Ajax was uncut. At the bottom of 
 the title to the last, the author had written 
 " Seen and DissaHowed." The copy came from 
 Beed's sale. At Dr. Bliss's sale, in 1858, the 
 copy which belonged to Lord Lumley, sold for 
 £10. I5s.. it was also on thick paper, but did 
 not contain the Ulysses. 
 
 The Metamorphosis of Ajax, anatomy, &c., were 
 reprinted by 8. W. Singer, Esq., Chiswick, 1814, 
 8vo, 100 copies. The orthography here is modern. 
 A Letter written by Sir John Harrington to Lady 
 Dowager Eussell concerning his Metamorphosis 
 of AjaXf is in Lansd. MS. 82. Several epigrams 
 relating to the book are in Sir J. H.'s collec- 
 tion, 1615, &o. These are also to be found in 
 the ed. of 18M.

 prynted at London, &c., by William Gryf. 
 fith. 1667. 4to, black letter. With cuts. 
 A copy was sold in the 7th part of Mr. He- 
 ber'a Library. It is evidently a different im- 
 pression from that next mentioned, but the 
 terms of the title-page shew that the tract had 
 been already once, at all events, in print. The 
 editor of a reprint, in 1814, speats of an ed. 1566, 
 because (it is presumed) Harraan states that the 
 volume was more than half printed in Nov. of 
 that year, but no copy dated 1666 has, it is be- 
 lieved, ever occurred.

 Tlie 8th of January, 1667, would be, according 
 to modern computation, the 8th of January, 
 1568, and this., therefore must have been at least 
 the third appearance of the tract. It appears 
 to have been the last issued by Giifiith, to 
 whom Harman was indebted for assistance in 
 collecting information. There is a woodcut of 
 the Cowtiterfeit Crank,

 The address from the Stationer to the Reader

 Swan translated out of french into English 
 at the Instigation of ye pusant and lUustrus

 Copland haue me appUed & by the help of

 ye 6. day of feburary in the thurd year of 
 [the] reyne of our most drad souaran & 
 natural Lord and King Henery the 8. 4to, 
 with woodcuts. Bagford Papers (Harl. MS. 
 5910, folio 232 verso). 
 
 Bagford must have seen this book, or had the 
 notice of it communicated by some one who 
 possessed it. The copy he saw or heard of was 
 ■printed, itseems, on parchment [vellum]. Ihave 
 thought it best to copy his clumsy account. 
 Ames mentions this impression of 1612, 4to, but 
 he does so very briefly ; all subsequent biblio- 
 graphers have contented themselves with fol- 
 lowing him. 
 
 (6) The Knight of the Swanne. Here begin- 
 neth the History of ye noble Helyas knyght 
 of the Swanne, newly translated out of 
 Freushe in to Englysshe at thiustyga- 
 ciou of the Puyssaunt & lUustryous 
 Prynce Lorde Edwarde Duke of Buokyng- 
 ham. [This title is over a large square 
 woodcut representing an incident in the 
 story.] [Col.] Thus endeth ye life & myra- 
 culous hystory of the moste noble and illus- 
 tryous Helyas Knight of the Swanne w the 
 birth iOf ye excellent Knight Godfrey of 
 Boulyo, one of the nyne worthiest, and the 
 last of the three clurysten. Imprinted at 
 London by me Wyllyam Copland, n. d. 
 4to, black letter. S. 2, in fours, but sig. A. 
 is repeated. 
 
 There are many cuts, but of these the greater 
 part are of no peculiar fitness, and occur in 
 other hooks, both later and earlier- Unless 
 Herbert erred strangely in his version of the 
 colophon of this book, there must have been 
 more than one impression of it ; he says 
 "Printed by W. Copland /or Abraham VeaU," 
 but in the Garrick copy, which he expressly 
 quotes, no mention occurs of Veale as the pub- 
 lisher.

 HENRY II. KING OF ENGLAND.— 
 
 A Ballad of King Henry II. and the Miller 
 of Mansfield. Imprinted at Loudon by 
 Edward Allde. A folio sheet. 
 
 An imperfect copy of this edition occurred, 
 printed on the hack of another piece, among 
 Mr. Heber's Ballads. There were innumerable 
 editions of this piece. I have one before me, 
 in the pamphlet form, consisting of 10 leaves, 
 12mo, black letter, but wanting the title. It 
 was evidently printed about 1630, perhaps ear- 
 lier. The head-line on A.2 is ; " The Miller and 
 the King."

 There was a later issue, also undated, on a 
 thinner and poorer paper, with occasional va- 
 riations in .the orthography and text of little 
 importance. There is very little doubt that the 
 types were kept standing for a certain time 
 after the appearance of the book, and .that 
 changes were introduced at press. "The Odyssey

 ing in ilM lower centre a portrait of Chapman 
 (which in one extant copy Chapman has touched 
 with a pen, the beard being too full). 
 
 In one of Mr. Heber's copies was written in 
 the poet's own hand : " For the many noble 
 favors receiv'd of the righte honorable the Lord

 '* The introductory poem in Commendation of 
 Poetry, and the concluding stanzas, addressed 
 by the translator to his Cousin Sir Ambrose 
 Hargreve, are very interesting. The latter is 
 remarltable also for being, perhaps, the only

 viz. the nine-line stanza of Spenser, without the 
 Alexandrine at the conclusion." — Bihl. Heber.

 [This title is over a large and curious wood- 
 cut, similar to that in the other eds.] 
 
 The only copy known of this impression ends 
 on K 3 ; it is ascribed in the British Museum 
 Catalogue to the press of W. Copland. 
 
 See Collier's Bibl. Cat. i. 881, where that gen- 
 tleman points out that the Bodleian copy of this 
 pamphlet, in all probability, belonged to Spen- 
 ser, who lent it to Gabriel Harvey in 1678. It is 
 no more than a coincidence, but still It is a 
 highly cui'ious one, that Nash, in his Strange 
 ^ews of tlie Intercepting Certaine Letters^ 1592, 
 refers to his antagonist Harvey as Gabrielli/ow- 
 liglasse. It will be observed that Copland issued 
 three impressions of Howleglas, all without date, 
 but tl5y may be assigned to some period between 
 1S48 and 1560.

 *'* Henry Hutton was one of the most caustic 
 satirists of his age. He draws a vivid picture 
 of the Gallants, Letchers, and Courtesans, - and 
 
 also of the * Humours * of his Time 
 
 In ridiculing the prevailing passion for Foreign 
 Travel he has a fling at Tom Odeombe (Coriate). 
 The raciness of his satires proves them to be 
 drawn from an actual observation of passing 
 characters. He also animadverts on Wither, 
 Taylor, Sir J. Harrington, and other contem- 
 porary writers." — Note in G. Chalmers' Cata- 
 logue.

 recovered.

 No perfect copy is known, but a fragment is 
 
 extant, consisting of 2 perfect and 6 imperfect 
 
 leaves. Here Lamfal is called Lamwel, and 
 
 the " Kynges Daughter of Mylyan " is thus 
 
 described : — 
 
 Theron sate a raayden bryght. 
 
 Almost naked vpright ; 
 
 All her clothes besyde her Inye ; 
 
 Full sengle she sate, I say. 
 
 In a mantell of whyte armyne, 
 
 Gouered ouer with golde full fyne. 
 
 There was she as whyte as lylly in Maye, 
 
 Or snowe that fallethe in wynter daye ; 
 
 Blossome on brere ne floure 
 
 Was nothynge to her coloure. 
 
 The reed rose that was so newe 
 
 To her reednesse was it no hewe." 
 This tale seems to have been the production 
 
 of Thomas Chestre, or Chester, who, however. 
 
 merely translated it from the French, a copy of 
 
 which is in Cotton MS. Caligula A. 11. In the 
 
 Fai/ry Mythology of a Midsumm&r Night's 
 
 Dream, 1845, there is a good text of it. 
 
 Licensed to John King the printer, and Captain 
 
 Cox is reported to have had it in 1575.

 In one of the headlines, instead of Pilgrimage 
 of Prinees, we find "The Paradice of Princely

 intention to adopt that title, or that Jones had 
 at press a work so denominated concurrently

 This book obtained a certain degree of popu- 
 larity, and went through several editions, of 
 which this maybe regarded as the parent. There 
 is no record of any impression between 
 that of 16T9 and that cf 1686. It was licensed 
 to Hugh Spooner in the former year. The ed. by 
 James Roberts for Edward White. 1586, 4to, 
 has been usually, but erroneously, regarded 
 as the earliest.

 An imperfect copy of an edition lettered 
 on the binding, and described as of 3588,

 who published the first and second edi- 
 tions of the Dialogue, &e., at Edinburgh or St. 
 Andrews, without date,J8trongly inveighed in the

 This noble poem was, as is sufficiently well 
 known, a comparative failure at the time of its 
 appearance, and several title pages were printed 
 to give an air of novelty to the book, the re- 
 mainder being the Identical impression of 1667.

 distinctive minutue, the boolv being very 
 common, and of too late a date to be biblio- 
 graphically interesting, in connexion with early 
 English literature.

 This is tlie first edition ; it was publislied in 
 the same year with very material alterations and 
 a varying title as under : — 
 
 See Mr. Collier's Bibl. Cat. i, 637. There is 
 no pretence whatever for assigning this volume 
 to Middleton, among whose Works Mr. Dyce 
 has printed it. Middleton, in the first place, 
 usually put his name in full on the title-page 
 of everything which came from his pen, even 
 in 1597, when he published a version of the 
 Boole of Wisdom. On the other hand, Moffat 
 printed The Silkworms and their Flies, 1599, 
 an unquestioned production of his, under his 
 initials only. He was certainly a writer of 
 ability and culture, and I have given him this 
 and the Blaclc Boole, 1604. Mr. Dyce has inserted 
 the latter also in his edition of Middleton.

 The meaning was, probably, that W. Morfet,

 Epitaphs, Epigrams, and Elegies, but that the 
 stationer did not precisely know what was the 
 nature of the book..

 There were several impressions of this book, 
 which, it is suspected, continued to be printed 
 with Middlelmrgh on the title, and without date,

 that all these editions appeared prior to 1600. 
 Only the first is of any peculiar scarcity and

 Dedicated to M. Nycholas Sentleger Esquyer, 
 "From my chamber ouer agayust Sergeants 
 Inne in Chancery lane, 1564." From the 
 terms of the dedication it seems that Peende,

 ha^ engaged in a translation of the whole of 
 the MetamorpJwsis when he desisted, learning 
 tliat another [Golding] had prevented him.

 PALMERIN OF ENGLAND.— The First 
 and Second Books. A translation by A. Mun- 
 day from a French version of the original 
 Spanish romance of Luis Hurtado. The 
 book has been sometimes, but improperly, 
 attributed to F. de Moraes. 
 
 This romance was licensed to John Charle- 
 woofl in 1581 — 2, but no edition of an earlier 
 date than 1596, has ever, I believe, been seen 
 in modem times. Of that ed. Mr. Heber had 
 an incomplete copy. On the 10th of March, 
 1594-5, the third book of Palmerin of England 
 was licensed to William Leake. 
 
 1. The Third and last part of Palmerin of Eng- 
 land. Enterlaoed with the Loues and For- 
 tunes of many gallant Knights and Ladies. 
 At London, Printed by I. R. for William 
 Leake, &c., 1602. 4to, black letter. De- 
 dicated to Maiater John Swinnertou. With 
 commendatory verses by T. Dekker, John 
 Webster, and Anth. Gybson. 
 
 The earliest edition known. Only a portion' 
 of the work was executed by Munday, whose 
 assistants were less competent than himself. 
 
 2. The First Part of the no lesae rare then ex- 
 cellent and stately History of the famous and 
 f ortimate Prince Palmerin of England. De- 
 claring the birth of him, and Prince Florian 
 du Desart his brother, in the Forest of Great 
 Eritaine, the course of their Hues afterward 
 in pursuing Knightly Adventures and per- 
 forming incomparable deeds of Chivalry. 
 Wherein Gentlemen may find choise of sweet 
 inventions, and Gentlewomen be satisfied 
 in courtly expectations. Translated out of 
 French, by A[nthony] M[unday] one of the 
 Messengers of her Majestie's Chamber. Pa-

 In the preface to this edition the publisher 
 observes : '* Mr. Peacham, many years ago, did 
 read his little book to me and some eminent 
 Mends of his ; we were much pleased with his 
 conceipts. Some years after, Mr. Peacham dy- 
 ing, and the book being so scarce that most of 
 the considerable booksellers in London had 
 never heard of it, many gentlemen were very 
 importunate with me to print the book anew. 
 After much research having found the book, I 
 have re-printed a small number of them, with 
 notes by, a friend of the author, who was tutor 
 to the Earl of Arundel's children,"

 Not improbably by W. Roy, to whom, indeed, 
 Mr. Heber was inclined to give it. Its tenor 
 may be inferred from the concluding lines ; — 
 " God save the kynge and speede the ploughe. 
 And sende the prelates care yuoughe, 
 Tuoughe, Tuonghe, Yuonghe."

 Usually ascribed to Robert Longland, or 
 Langland, but the authorship may perhaps be 
 regarded as still an open question. This is one 
 of the most remarkable productions of the age 
 
 [1362-80], and in importance, and interest, and 
 merit of execution, ranks second only to Chau- 
 cer. There are numerous M8S. of it, their 
 value being various. The author, whoever ho 
 was, appears to have revised his poem at two 
 distinct periods of time subsequently to its ori- 
 ginal composition, and accordingly we find 
 three texts, all difTerent, yet all, in a manner, 
 genuine. These three casts of the book are to 
 be published at an early date from the MSS. by 
 the Early English Text Society. The iirst may 
 be fixed at elroA 1362. The MSS. used by Dr. 
 Whittaker in 1813, and by Mr. Wright in 1842, 
 are both impure ; indeed, in some respects, in- 
 ferior to that employed by the old printer of 
 1660.

 Otliej editions were printed by W. de Worde,

 British Museum and at Althorp. The work 
 has been printed by the Camden Society under 
 the editorship of Mr. Way, from a collation of 
 MSS. and printed editions. The authorship is 
 uncertain. It has been sometimes, but pro- 
 bably in error, given to Richard Francis, a 
 Black Friar: Mr. Way is inclined, with some 
 reason, in favour of one Galfridus Grammaticus.

 ginal notes. I believe that the discrepancy be- 
 tween the date (1574) at the foot of the address 
 to the Header and that (1573) in the Colophon 
 may be accounted for by the circumstance that 
 the latter forms part of a woodcut, which may 
 have been employed before, that is, for some 
 book really printed within 1573.

 At Heber's sale it prodnce* ST. IBs. : nor is 
 any other Itnown. The circumstance connected 
 with the acquisition of this uniqufr volume by 
 the boolcselier who sold it to Heber, is thus 
 related by Mr. Corser : — " Some years ago [Mr 
 C. writes in 1851] the late eminent bookseller, 
 Mr. Rodd, passing by one of the general repo- 
 sitories for every sort of ware, in the neigb- 
 bourhood of Saffron-hill, saw lying open in the 
 window a black letter volume, which he found 
 to contain several curious and rare tracts. On 
 enquiring its price, the owner of the shop im- 
 mediately pTaced it in a pair of scales, and 
 weighing it said it was threepence three far- 
 things. Not having a farthing he gave the man 
 fourpence, who returned him the odd farthing, 
 and Mr R'odd carried off his prize in triumph. 
 On examination h& found it to contain some 
 lure pieces by Greene, one or two by Rowlands, 
 Breton, Decker, &e. , and this tract by Robin- 
 son. He afterwards sold the volume to Heber, 
 for fifty pounds, who, dividing the several 
 
 pieces At the sale of tlrat gentleman's 
 
 Library [1834]. it was purchased by Mr. [Ed- 
 ward] Hawkins's advice for the British Mu- 
 seum. . . ."

 Shakespeare's share in this drama is notori- 
 ously questionable. 
 Rowley was a contributor to the "Mauso- 
 
 leum," 1613, a collection of some of the funeral 
 tributes to the memory of Pr. Henry. He 
 was probably the W. B. who contributed an 
 epitaph on Greene the actor to Heywood's 
 edition of Greene's Tv, Quoqjie, 1614. 
 
 I have seen a copy of the English Ape, 1588,

 printed with very curious negligence in Heli-

 valuable series of the early Bnghsh poetical

 been obtained of the mystery involved in the

 No perfect copy of this volume seems to be 
 known. The first portion— Pan's Pipe — is 
 among the King's Books in the British Museum, 
 and consists of 16 leaves ; but it does not contain 
 the M'inherTnan's Tale, which is nothing more 
 than Greene's Fa/ndosto, 1588, versified. Heber 
 had the Fisherman's Tale, 1695, and it was sold 
 among his books as a complete volume, no 
 bibliographer seeming to have been aware that 
 it really should form part of Pan's Pipe, being 
 mentioned in the title of the latter.

 This was intended to sell separately, but it 
 
 strictly forms part of Norton's worTcs (Norton, 
 
 T.) 
 
 Though said in the edition of 1665, and in the 
 reprint of it iu 1590, to have been partly written 
 by Norton, it is now the general opinion that 
 Norton contributed nothing to the drama 
 beyond a few unimportant touches and perhaps 
 the preparation of the dumb shows.

 There were two editions of the Philomythie 
 in 1616, greatly differing. In the former of the 
 two, there are 6 preliminary leaves, which were 
 left out in the re-issue, and the Solerivm, 
 which belongs to the Second Part, is printed in 
 the first, but with a blank space left for 64 
 lines of copy which were lost by the Printer, 
 and which, in consequence of the writer's ab- 
 sence from London, he was unable to supply. 
 In the Second Part, the first edition has four 
 engravings, by Elstracke, which in the second 
 edition are merely rough woodcuts.

 The above is copied from the BiU. Ctrenv., 
 where the copy, formerly the Dulie of Box- 
 burghe's and Heber's, is described. Three others 
 appear to be known, but all are without the 
 title-page. In the GrenvUle (!opy alone is a 
 fragment of it. The authorship is uncertain. 
 It was reprinted by Dr. Leyden in 1801, and a 
 new and improved edition has been announced. 
 The book is certainly one of the most precious 
 relics in the language and literature of Scot- 
 land. Of the four known copies two are in the 
 British Museum.

 On E 2 commences a new title ; Sonnets To 
 sundry notes of Musicke. At London Printed

 leaves, except the last three, are printed on one 
 side only. CapM Coll. (supposed unique). 
 
 It is bound up with the Venus and Adonis of 
 1620, and the volume as it stands cost the old 
 proprietor three halfpence, notwithstanding the 
 fact, as that gentleman very properly points out, 
 that a corner was off one leaf ! 
 
 The following curious advertisement is before 
 Lintot's Edition of the Poems, printed about 
 1710:— 
 
 " Advertisement The remains of Mr Wm. 
 Shakespeare, called the Passionate Pilgrime, 
 and Bonnets to Sundry Notes of Musick (at the 
 end of this collection), came to my hands in a 
 little stitch'd Book, printed at London for W. 
 Jaggard, in the year 1589. It is generally agreed 
 he dy'd about the year 1616, so that it appears 
 plainly they were published by himself, being 
 printed 17 years before his Death. I will say 
 nothing of Venus and Adonis, nor of the Eape 
 of Lucrece, they being universally allowed to be 
 Shakespeare's, only that I have printed them 
 from very old Editions, which I procur'd, as the 
 Eeader will find by my keeping close to his 
 spelling. The writings of Mr Shakespeare are 
 in so great Esteem, that several Gentlemen have 
 subscribed to a late Edition of his Dramatick 
 Works, in Six Volumes, which makes me hope 
 tliat this little Book will not be unacceptable to 
 the Publick. I shall not take upon me to say any- 
 thing of the Author, an ingenious person having 
 compil'd some Memoirs of his Life, and prefixed 
 it to the late above-mentioned Edition. But I can- 
 not oujit inserting a passage of Mr. Shakespeare's 
 Life, very much to his Honour, and very remark- 
 
 able, which was either unknown, or forgotten by 
 theWriter of it. That most leam'd Prince and 
 gi-eat Patron of Learning, King James the 
 First, was pleas'd with his own Hand to write 
 an amicable Letter to Mr. Shakespeare ; which 
 Letter, tho' now lost, remain'dlong in the hands 
 of Sir William Davenant, as a credible Peraon 
 now living can testify."

 H. — initials which have not yet been satisfacto- 
 rily explained. 
 
 "Two title pages were printed to this volume, 
 on one of which Shakespeare's name is printed, 
 while the other is without it : there is no other 
 difference. Malone's copy has both. It is of 
 this book, and of this edition of it, that Hey wood 
 complains so bitterly in the Postscript to his 
 Apology for Actors, 1612. The Love-Epistles 
 were iu.fact his, and were fraudulently appropri- 
 ated by Jaggard.

 Printed in double columns, and of all the old 
 editions the most valuable. There are variations 
 in copies as regards typographical minutise, and 
 in one at least the appearance of the portrait 
 differs, the shading on the collar being fainter ; 
 the verses were set up twice. The price of publi- 
 cation was £1. Hibbert, 1829, £86. Is. ; resold 
 Wilks, in 1847, £155. ; resold Gardner, in 1854,

 imperfect copies are extant, but these it was 
 not worth while to specify. Mr. F. 8. Ellis, of 
 . King Street, had a very fair copy on sale in 1864, 
 for £210. Space would be wasted in describing 
 a boolc which, through facsiniiles,has become so

 The music for this piece was composed by 
 Mathew Locke and Christopher Gibbons, and 
 in MS. Addit. 1799 is preserved a copy of the

 Printed at the end of the Catalogue of MSS. 
 in the Pub. Lib. Plymouth, 1863, from an ori- 
 ginal MS. Perhaps by Shirley, but the author- 
 ship is not clearly established. 
 
 Shirley also assisted Chapman in the composi- 
 tion of I'AeiJa^i and The TragedieofChaiot, and, 
 it is said, corrected The Night Walkers, 1640, the 
 production of Fletcher. Ho is the reputed editor 
 of the first folio edition of Beaumont and Fletcher, 
 1647. It may remarked generally that all Shir- 
 ley's dramas are of comparatively slight value, 
 except the Sve Sew Playes, 1653, and Citpicf and 
 Death, 1653 and 1659.

 In some copies of the 1st vol. at p. 332, 
 hlanfc spaces are left for the Welsh words. At the 
 end of the volume some copies have four leaves 
 unpaged, with 17 Sonnets upon them to the 
 Authoi's patrons, hut in others we find instead 
 two paged leaves, having on them ten sonnets 
 only. At the end of Book 3 occur five stanzas, 
 describing the meeting between Scudaraore and 
 Amoret, in somewhat warm terms : these 
 Spenser replaced in the second edition by three 
 other stanzas of a dilferent character. In the 
 second edition also, nearly all the complimentary 
 matter, in the shape of sonnets, verses, &c., 
 was cancelled.

 Mathew Lownes. 1611. Folio. Printed in 
 
 double columns, with separate titlepages to 
 
 the different portions. 
 
 A volume of common occurrence j but it is not 
 easily met with in pure state. If, as Mr. Todd 
 conjectured, this edition was superintended by 
 Gabriel Harvey, that gentleman did his work 
 very ill, for the text is particularly corrupt and 
 valueless. Copies occur with the date 1617, but 
 the titlepage or titlepages, are all that is new.

 bards Tales is not to haue them called in againe

 it may appear that S^easei's Mother Hubbard, to

 Scarcely two copies, of those few remaining, cor- 
 respond exactly. There are separate titles to the 
 different portions, and that given ahove merely 
 applies to the original pieces which come before 
 the translations of Bion, Mosehus, Anacreon, 
 &c. TheAv/rora does not seem to have been ever 
 republished after its second appearance in 1650. 
 Some copies read : London, printed for Hum- 
 phrey Moseley, &e. 1652; which title-page 
 ■was probably set up, when the Author had 
 ceased to present copies to friends, and parted 
 with the remainder of the stock to Moseley.

 Warton (H. E. P. 1824, iv, 223) speaks of hav-

 as the alleged scene of FalstaflTs early depre- 
 dations, but it was the theatre of some of Cla- 
 vell's exploits, and of the adventure upon which 
 is founded the fictitious episode of Dick Tor- 
 pin's ride to York.

 1631. Mr. Oorser. 
 
 Printed from a MS. in Mr. Halliwell's " Contri- 
 butions to Early English Literature," 1849. 
 
 This appears to have been intended for the 
 press. It was the work of some author whose 
 name has not transpired, and was merely com- 
 pleted by Taylor, who, in an Advertisement to 
 tJie Reader, observes that the verses came into 
 his hands by chance, he neither knowing the 
 author, nor the time or place, when and where 
 they were written. He added something to 
 them, and perhaps conferred upon them the 
 present title. (NichoUs E.) 
 
 Taylor has lines before Breton's Considerations 
 oftlie Soul, 1608, and Heywood's Apology, 1612, 
 &c., also, a poem on the Funerals of Patrick 
 Forbes, Bishop of Aberdeen, 1636. 
 
 The foregoing somewhat extended list of Tay- 
 lor's Works in their separa.te editions omits 
 several tracts,^ which were placed under his name 
 in Mr. Skegg's catalogue, and which appear to 
 have been copied thence into Lowndes. There 
 is no foundation for assigning to him the author- 
 ship of these pieces, beyond a general similarity 
 of subject and style.

 This book is supposed, from the similarity of 
 type, to have proceeded from the early Oxford

 "This copy formerly belonged to Gabriel Harvey,

 ' Tusser in a manner such a Husband as Agrippa 
 was, an artist or Machiavel, a politique, all 
 three able to instruct others, but unable to pre- 
 fer or benefit themselves ; chiefly for want of a 
 good foundation, none of them being substantially 
 grounded either for private wealth or publique 
 Creddit, without which few flourish or prosper in 
 the World." "—Btbl. Heber.

 Herbert saw a copy in Mr. Tiitet's hands. 'There 
 was another in the Lincoln Nosegay, afterwa-ids 
 sold to Mr. Heber (Bibl. Heber iv.. No. 2836). 
 Printed in secretary-Gothic type. It may be 
 doubted whether Vaughan was really the writer 
 of the main poem (he was certainly so of some 
 shorter pieces at the end), for he states that a 
 friend gave it to him for publication. But 
 authors formerly, as since, occasionally resorted 
 to such expedients, to avoid the responsibilities 
 of parentage.

 that there was more than one title page printed 
 to the book.

 The history of this book, of which it seems 
 that only one copy has ever been seen, is rather 
 curious. It had been Bishop Tanner's, and 
 was formerly with his books at Oxford, but 
 had been missed for many years, when it oc- 
 curred at the sale of Mr. Voigt's books in 1806, 
 and was bought by Malone for £42. 10s. 6d. 
 "With his library it returned to its old resting- 
 place. It has been twice reprinted, but a 
 faithful reproduction of it is still a desiderativm,

 Psalms, accompanied by the Music. This seems 
 to have been the only edition known to Herbert. 
 Whetstone appears to have sent it to press 
 during his professional residence in the Low 
 Countries as a soldier in the English army of 
 occupation. Like Gascoigne, Churchyard, and 
 Richard Robinson of Alton, he was Tam' Marti 
 quam Merourio. See Churchyard's Historical

 Whetstone alludes, in his dedication of this 
 tract to Lord Warwick, to the errors of some of 
 those who had gone before him, but he eclipsed 
 them all unconsciously in ascribing to Sidney 
 the ShupJierds Calendar.

 dress printed on the back of the title, states

 from a contemporary memorandum upon a

 1586-7, a,t fourpence.

 WILTSHIRE.— 1. The Passion of the 
 ■ Fox. [Col.] Thus is ended the fantasy of 
 the passion of yo fox, lately of the towne of 
 Myre, a lyteU besyde Shaftesbury in the 
 dyooeses of Salysbury. Emprynted by me 
 Wynkyn de Worde ye .xvi. day of February. 
 The yere of our lords M.v.c.xxx. 4to, 8 
 leaves, with signatures, signature titles, and 
 side-notes. A Poem. Public Library 
 Cambridge (no title page). 
 
 Henry Bradshaw, Esq., Keeper of the Uni- 
 versity Library, Cambridge, has forwarded me 
 the following account of this (supposed) unique 
 publication :— "The author, a chantry priest at 
 Mere (Wilts) near Shaftesbury loses a pet tame 
 fox one November. At night in his sleep Eria 
 appears, and carries him off to Cimmeria to 
 the mountain -where the god of sleep lives. 
 Here Eris leaves him. The god calls Morpheus, 
 Phobetor, and Phantasos to teU the author all 
 he wants. Morpheus tells him how the fox had 
 strayed outside, and was hunted by the neigh- 
 bours. The excUrniatio invidorum follows, in 
 shorter 8-line stanzas, and in this Morpheus re- 
 lates the capture and death of the fox. At this 
 the author is much distressed, and they then 
 show him a roll, in which he reads the testa- 
 ment of the fox : 
 'E Curribus of Mere dyoceses of Sarum 
 Of subytll minde and wil coudo testamentum," &c. 
 Then Morpheus tells him to go home, and 
 Phobetor and Phantasos leave him. He 
 lies down to rest near the king until the 
 morning, when he hears the cock far off. He 
 gets up and goes out through the ivoiy gate, 
 and sits down. Here he wakes, and wondering 
 at his vision goes and says his service at the 
 Church. When he comes home he hears the 
 fox has been caught and killed, and the body is 
 brought to him. 
 
 The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd lines of each stanza 
 rhyme, and the 6th, 6th, and 7th, and the last 
 line rhymes with the 4th. 
 
 2. A picture of a monsterus pygge at Salus- 
 bury. A ballad (probably) with a woodcut, 
 licensed to T. ColweU in 1565. 
 
 3. Take Heed in Time, or a brief Relation of 
 many Harmes which have of late been done 
 by Fire in Marlborough and other Places, 
 1652. 8vo. 
 
 4. The True Picture of a Female Monster bom 
 near Salisbury on Wednesday, the 26 day of 
 October, 1664, of the Wife of John Water- 
 man, a husbaudman in the Parish of Fisher- 
 ton Anger, near New Sarum. London, 
 Printed for R. P., at the Sign of the Bible 
 in Chancery Lane. 1664. A sheet. Bibl, 
 Chetham. 
 
 5. Nature's Wonder, or Account how the Wife 
 of one John Waterman, an Ostler in the 
 Parish of Fisherton Auger, near Salisbury, 
 was Delivered of a Strange Monster upon 
 the 16th of October, 1664, which lived un- 
 tiU the 27th of the same moneth. It had 
 two Heads, foure Armes, and two Legs, the 
 Heads standing contrary to each other, and 
 the Loines, Hipps and Leggs issueing out of 
 the middle betwixt both. They were both 
 perfect to the Navell, and there joyned in 
 one, being but one Sex, which was the Female. 
 She had another Child born before it (of the 
 Female Sex) which is yet living, and is a 
 very Comely Child in all proportions.

 This book is dedicated in prose thus: "To

 is followed by an address to the reader, five epi-

 committed to the Marshalsea for this publica-

 This is usually regarded as a spurious edition, 
 and is denounced as such, in fact by the author 
 in his i' Juvenilia, 1622, The Shepherds Pvpe, 
 here reprinted from the edition of 1614, was 
 only in part the production of Wither. Chris- 
 topher Brooke, W. Browne, and Davies of Here-

 issue by Allot is the same edition as that 
 published by Budge four years earlier, and 
 the separate titles to each portion contain 
 the old date 1622 and Budge's imprint. The 
 interest in the whole publication appears to 
 have devolved upon Allot, probably after 
 Budge's death, and a few years later we find 
 the Juvenilia republished, Allot associating 
 with him John Grismand, another stationer, 
 who had a property in certain of Wither's 
 vrorks. 
 
 This is a volume of high interest and intrin.sio 
 value, containing all the best productions of 
 Wither's earlier years of authorship. It in-

 from the Preface to the Header that the trans-

 The Poet revised this work, but it was never

 the following varied title : —

 This little volume is printed in a neat, clear 
 letter, and is considered, typographically, the 
 most elegant of all Wither's works. Next to 
 the EaUlujah, it is also the least common, only 
 3 or 4 copies being known. Sotheby's, in 1860, 
 £6. 10s.

 executed by that Plague, recorded faithfully 
 with many pertynent circumstances for the 
 future benefits of all Three Kingdomes, and 
 dedicated unfaignedly to the glorie of Al- 
 mightie God by George Wither ; who being 
 present at that arraignment and deserving 
 death, was acquitted by the free pardon of 
 mercy. Psal. Ixvi. 14 ; xci. 6, 7 ; li. 15.

 The plates by C. Passe here found had been 
 used many years before for the Nucleus Embletiv- 
 atum of Rollenhagius, 1611 — 13, and are conse- 
 quently much worn. It is not quite easy to 
 understand the high value which is set upon 
 them, but the book, such as it is, was a par- 
 ticular favourite with Elia. 
 
 Frontispiece, with a Preposition to it, Printed 
 title, Writ of Prevention, and Dedication to the

 occupied by a woodcut of a Wheel, to which is 
 sometimes attached a hand. The frontispiece is 
 by W. Marshall. A Selection from this workwas 
 made by R. Burton, alias N. Crouch, 1684, 
 12mo, under the title, of " Delights for the in- 
 genious," and Wither's Majesty in Misery is 
 inserted there, without any hint as to its 
 authorship. . 
 
 The finest copy I have seen of this work is 
 that which Mr Henry Huth has. It was 
 bought in Holland some years ago by Messrs. 
 Boone, of London, and was at the time of pur- 
 chase, in the original vellum binding. But it 
 wants the Hand or Index.

 Wither, Esq. That God may be glorified in 
 his Saints: That the memory of Thomas 
 Westrow Esq ; may be preserved, and that 
 others by his exemplary Life and Death, may 
 be drawn to imitation of his Vertues. 
 
 Blest are the dead who dye in Christ ; 
 For, from their Labours they do rest ; 
 And, whether they do live or dye. 
 His Saints are precious in his eye. 
 
 TO THE READER, 
 
 Header, peruse this thorow : For, to Thee 
 It most pertains, though Westrow named be ; 
 And, gives (as by the way) some short hints, there. 
 
 To what Intents, He, ohieily doth appear, 
 And whereof, if good heed shall not be toolc 
 Somewhat, ere long, more fully will be spoke. 
 Both Moses, and the Prophets, many a day 
 Have spolten ; and a Greater one then they. 
 Hear them : For when God sendeth by the Dead, 
 His Messages will come with much more dread. 
 Then Comfort ; and few men, with good effect. 
 Shall hear these, who the former do neglect. 
 Be wise, or else ; But, He, now say no more, [sic] 
 The Feet ofmessengers are at the door.

 This and the Th/ree Grains of Franlciacmse,

 regarded as the more valuable, inasmuch as it

 kindnesses received. The Rev. T. Corser has

 writing this address, being transported be- 
 yond the sense of his personal sufferings, 
 discovers by a poetical rapture, that whereon 
 the peace of these nations depends: and 
 what is, and what will be, their sad condi- 
 tion ; as also, what new purgatories and 
 fiery tryals they are likely to pass, if God's 
 mercy prevents not ; which that they may 
 
 endeavour to obtain, their old Remembrancer 
 gives them once more a Forewarning : re- 
 solving this shallbe his last time of sound- 
 ing them an alarm. Printed at London, in 
 the Year. 1669. 4to, 16 leaves. 
 
 74. A Cordial of Confection, to strengthen 
 their hearts whose courage begins to fail, by 
 the Armies late disolving the Parhament. 
 It is wrapt up in an epistolary discourse, oc- 
 casionally written to Mr. Ro. Hamon, Mer- 
 chant, by Geo. Wither, Esq. about a week 
 after the said parhament was disaolv'd : and 
 is thus communicated by a copy thereof, as 
 very pertinent to these distracted Times, 
 and tending to preservation of the common 
 peace. For (other things of public concern- 
 ment being interwoven) it truly states 
 the People's cause, in plain expressions suit- 
 able to the vulgar capacities, and frees it 
 from scandals. It contaios an Expedient, 
 hitherto not heeded, or neglected, whereby 
 Charles Stuart may be settled in peace, it he 
 please : whereby we may have a better Par- 
 liament than we lost, or ever had: whereby 
 our Armies may be kept constant to order, 
 whilst they are needful, and in a short time 
 quite disbanded : whereby the People's just 
 freedoms may be recovered and perpetuated : 
 whereby not only these nations, but all 
 Christendome also, may be established in a 
 righteous peace; and it hath neither de- 
 structive inlet, outlet, or false bottom.

 75. Fides- Anglicana. Or ' a plea for the pub- 
 lick faith of these nations : lately pawned, 
 forfeited, and violated, by some of their 
 former Trustees ; to the rendering it as infar- 
 mous as Fides-Punica was heretofore. It is 
 humbly offered to consideration, in a peti- 
 tionary remonstrance to all in authority, on 
 the behalf of many thousands, to whom se- 
 curities were given upon the said pubHck 
 faith ; and was prepared to have been put 
 forth during the sitting of the last parlia- 
 ment. It comprehends likewise an expe- 
 dient, whereby the honour of the King and 
 nations may be preserved in redeeming the 
 same, vrithout oppressing private persons, 
 or overburthening the Pubhck. And thereto 
 are added two or three exemplary narratives 
 out of Antiquity, evidencing that neglect of 
 Justice is dangerous, and that the freedom 
 of expression assumed by the Author, is 
 neither needless in such cases, nor unjustifi- 
 able by warrantable precedents. Veritas

 any humane ordination. Whereto are added 
 some Fragments of the same Author's

 Cockain's Divine Blossoms, 1666, are dedicated to 
 him. 
 
 The largest assemblage of Wither's works 
 in any collection, public or private, is in the 
 library of the Bev. Thomas Corser, M.A., of 
 Stand, near Manchester. 
 
 Wither translated the work of Nemesius on 
 the Nature of Man, 1636, 12mo, which does not 
 seem to have become vflry popular ; for it is 
 one of the commonest of books. The poet in- 
 scribed this volume to bis honoiu'ed friend, 
 John Selden, Esq. 
 
 Besides the Ralelujah and Hywues and Songs 
 of the Church, reprinted in the " Library of 
 Old Authors," several of Withers' pieces have 
 seen new editions. I think that the extracts 
 from Juvenilia by Mr. Dalrymple, 1785, 8vo, 
 formed the earliest attempt at a revival of the 
 old poet's memory. Mr. Gutch of Bristol re- 
 published the Juvenilia, &c., in three volumes, 
 8vo, and intended to have prosecuted the task 
 still further: buttheundertalung didnot suc- 
 ceed, and the books were in large measure 
 wasted, it is said. Their loss is not much to 
 be regretted, perhaps, for the text did not 
 faithfully represent the original, and there was 
 neither Introduction nor Notes.

 This is a different impression &om that in the

 This book was only Icuown to me from its 
 registration on the Stationers* books, till I met 
 with a copy in the hands of Henry Pyne, Esq. 
 Mr. Pyne's copy was purchased of Jefferies, of 
 Bristol, for £2. 2s. It came from the same col- 
 lection as the Venus and Adonis of 1627, which 
 wa.s sold at a sale in London, a few years ago, 
 for £116.

 F f 2 in fours, with a frontispiece and several 
 woodcuts of rather superior execution. 
 
 This is the work which I have already (rather 
 
 too cursorily, perhaps) mentioned as the 7th

 With a second page-woodcut on G 4 verso. 
 Partly black letter. 
 
 The present is an exact account (taken from 
 a copy before me) of a book I have described 
 already not quite accurately. This prose his- 
 tory, which appears toEhave been one of those 
 cheap publications on sale by J. Blare at a penny 
 or twopence, was doubtless recommended by 
 the popularity of Quarles's poem, which itself 
 had been taken from Sydney's Arcadia.

 With woodcuts. Br. Museum (Garrick). 
 
 Of the circumstance that there were two edi- 
 twns of this romance from W. Copland's press, 
 bibhographers do not seem to have been aware. 
 I was not acquainted with it myself till the ear- 
 lier sh^ts had been worked off, or the article 
 would have been inserted in its proper place. 
 The present should rank third in the catalogue 
 of the hiumn impressions of Sir Bevis. W. Cop- 
 land carried on business first at the Rose Gar- 
 land, in Fleet Street ; secondly, in Lothbury, 
 opposite St. Margaret's Church ; thirdly, in 
 Thames Street, at the Three Cranes in the Vin. 
 tree. The latest book of his printing which I 
 have met with was dated 1667 ; but as the ma- 
 jority of his publications are withoijt any note 
 of year, he may very well have continued in 
 business a few years longer.

 This is a more correct accoimt of a book

 It is a collection of 44 Sonnets, probably (see

 by one of the Bradshaighs of the Haw orHaigh,

 Each page contains one Stanza, at top and 
 bottom of which are the same typographical 
 ornaments as in the " Passionate Pilgrime," of 
 1599, and in Griffin's " Fidessa," of 1698. This 
 latter, both in type and ornaments, resembles 
 "Emaricdulfe" exactly.

 A more satisfactory account of this volume 
 seemed desirable, as 1 have since had an oppor- 
 tunity of inspecting the copy of the second 
 edition whieh belonged to Mr. Jolley. The title 
 of the ed. of 1579 is preserved here iuthe head- 
 line, Jones, in his dedication, states that the 
 autlior was too modest to come forward, that 
 he (Jones) toolt little credit to himself for 
 printing tlie book, and that the writer, being 
 accustomed to *' lose his pains," got nothing 
 by it.

 known to Steevens and Dr. Bliss (in his edition

 any public or private repository, which at pre- 
 sent possesses a copy, and I owe the above in-

 Mr. .Pickering, of Piccadilly, lately pointed 
 out to me a circumstance of which I was not 
 aware, that in all the copies he has seen of the 
 later edition on poorer paper, two leaves of text 
 are deficient (pp. 281.7-2, and pp. 283 — 4), and 
 that the signatures are incorrect, Bb 3 being a 
 repetition of Bb 2, and Bb 5 and Bb i being 
 identical. In the original issue this oversight 
 does not occur. He also gave me reason to 
 believe that this impression is more than a mere 
 re-issue, as there are indications of a fresh 
 setting up, and some of the head ornaments 
 are printed upside down.

 This is an edition hitherto unknown, for 
 though.copies are extant of Marlowe's portion 
 comprising the iirst two Sestyads, printed in 
 1598, no mention has ever been made of the 
 complete work including Chapman's continua- 
 tion as having been printed in this year till the 
 discovery of two copies at Lamport Hall, of this 
 date, one of them bearing on the title-page 
 Leandr instead of Leander. A comparison of 
 the two shews that portions, if not the whole, 
 of the impression, were "reset" by the printer.

 MICHELL. 
 
 T?ie ]fh1jiping of tht Saiyre and The Whipper of 
 the Satyre his pennance in a white Sheete ; all 
 printed in 1601. Mr. Edmonds thus speaks of 
 It— "Neither Warton, Collier, Lowndes, nor 
 Hazlitt, has been fortunate enough to meet 
 with this curious and rare work, and the only 
 person who seems to have seen it is Malone, 
 who quotes a stanza from it in illustration of a 
 passage in Shakespeare's As You Like It, Act 3, 
 Sc. 2. It abounds with humour and delineations 
 of character, as well as proverbial expressions, 
 all expressed in vigorous and well-turned ver.se. 
 Its kindly tone contrasts favourably with The 
 WMppinge of the SatyrCf which is a coarse and 
 violent attack on John Marston, Ben Jon son, 
 and Nicholas Breton, by an anonymous author, 
 who signs himself W. T., but who is believed 
 by Mr. Collier (BiUiogr. Cat. vol. 2) to be 
 John Weever. After a comparative examination 
 of the three works I have no hesitation, judging 
 from personal allusions and the internal evi- 
 dence generally, in attributing the authorship 
 of No WMppinge nor Trippinge to the pen of 
 Nicholas Breton ; while I believe with Mr. 
 Hazlitt that The Whipper of the Safyre (the first 
 of the, series) is the production of John Mar- 
 ston. A copy of tlie latter work, presumed to 
 be unique, belonged to Mr. Heber, who sup- 
 posed it to have been levelled against Marston 
 and his Scourge of Vilainy, but the internal evi- 
 dence and a comparison with the other works 
 sufficiently discountenance this opinion."

 2. The Passionate Pilgrim. Lond. 1599. 8vo 
 
 A very fine copy of this precious little volume 
 has lately been discovered in the old library at 
 Lamport Hall. By mistake the printer, in 
 making up the sheets of art. Shaelespeare, in 
 the former alphabet, repeated the paragraph 
 relating to Malone's copy of the 3rd edition of 
 the P. P. 1612, and aggravated the blunder by 
 inserting the duplicate, as if it had belonged 
 and referred to the edition of 1599.

 the volumes ascribed to W. B. Browne the

 Wilton. Can he have executed this translation ? 
 Neither of the copies referred to offers any 
 clue ; but old hooks often vary slightly in small

 The end has been reached. The result is not by any means entirely satis- 
 factory to myself, and I cannot for an instant be so an-ogant as to entertain 
 a notion that it will prove so to others who may have occasion to consult 
 the work. But I am sure that a certain- degree of indulgence will be 
 extended to my shortcomings when it is recollected that a larger number of 
 books are here described from the books themselves than in any other 
 publication, Herbert's Ames excepted. In correcting for the press, I have 
 had rather peculiar difficulties to contend against, and the misprints are 
 far more plentiful than I could wish them to have been. If the work is 
 re-issued, these blemishes shall be removed. But I have thought it neces- 
 sary and desirable, whenever a book or tract, imperfectly described before 
 has since fallen in my way, to describe it over again in the Supplement, 
 supposing the case to be one of sufficient consequence. 
 
 I have once more to thank those kind friends and correspondents who, 
 to the very last page, have assisted me by supplying information, verifying 
 references, and in other valuable ways. I must not omit a specific tribute 
 to the services of my kind acquaintance, Henry Pyne, Esq., of the Tithe 
 Commission, whose extensive assemblage of scarce books and tracts has 
 been throughout open to my inspection and use. I have also to thank very 
 particularly Mr. Charles Edmonds, of the house of WUlis and Sotheran, 
 for communicating to me the titles and collations of several books and 
 
POST-PRiEPATIO. 
 
 tracts of the utmost rarity recently dLscovered by him in the library of a 
 gentleman in Northamptonshire. Of a few of these the existence had been 
 suspected ; but it is now for the first time established as an unquestionable 
 fact. 
 
 I wish, in concluding, to be allowed to repeat what I stated at first, 
 namely, that this "Work does not assume to be exhaustive, but purports to 
 be a considerable advance on anything which has been yet done in our 
 country in the same direction. '
