PREFACE 

THE scope and the purpose of this bibliography can most 
easily be explained through a brief account of its genesis. It 
is an outgrowth of a dissertation offered in candidacy for 
the doctorate at Yale University. The dissertation was a study of 
English literary taste as exhibited in the poetical miscellanies of 
the first quarter of the eighteenth century. As a preliminary to 
this study I compiled a bibliography of the miscellanies, not only 
of the period under consideration, but also of the periods imme- 
diately preceding and following. Eventually I found myself in 
possession of a fairly extensive bibliography covering the years 
from 1660 to 1750. My difficulties in collecting this material 
suggested that its publication would not be without: value, but 
it seemed obvious that a more careful and complete work, begin- 
ning with the earliest printed miscellany* would be far more 
useful. As there seemed to be no logical date at which to con- 
clude the survey, the original arbitrarily chosen date of 1750 
was allowed to stand. 

All of the three components of the phrase * English poetical 
miscellanies' require definition. 1 have used "ICnglish* in a sense 
somewhat broader than that in which it; was employed by the 
editors of the Slwrt Title Catalogue* Original or translated verse 
by British subjects, written in any language and printed in any 
country, has been regarded an English poetry, lit determining the 
minimum proportion of verse which would qualify a miscellany 
as poetical I have* found it necessary to fall back upon subjective 
standards: generally speaking I have included any volume which 
contains a fairly considerable section devoted to miscellaneous 
verse* The presence within a book of verse by three or more 
authors has arbitrarily bean made the test of its miscellaneous 
character . 1 httvt* found it advisable, however, to exclude from 
consideration certain clasftuttof books which, strictly speaking, fall 



Preface 

within the limits just set down. In many cases the collected works 
of a writer are prefaced by commendatory poems written by the 

author's friends: in other cases, notably those of early editions of 
Chaucer, a single volume contains poems ascribed to a single 
author, but actually written by several. Obviously such books are 
not miscellanies in intention, and do not come within the scope of 
this bibliography. Two other classes of books were excluded from 
my original project because they would have introduced confusing 
elements into a study of literary taste : these wore song-books which 
contained music, and hymn-books, with or without music, intended 
for congregational use. When I revised the plan of my biblio- 
graphy I still excluded these two classes, on the ground that each 
was sufficiently large and important to deserve a separate treat- 
ment. Had these two classes been included the present volume 
would have been considerably enlarged, and its appearance would 
have been correspondingly delayed. 

What may be the percentage of error in this book I naturally do 
not know. I have already become aware of one grievous omission 
(that of Jmisonus Virbius, 1637), anc l undoubtedly 1 am guilty of 
other sins* I have tried to make it easier to check the accuracy 
of my work by indicating precisely the locations of the books I 
have examined, 1 shall, of course, be grateful for corrections ami 
additions to my lists, or for information as to the whereabouts 
of other copies of books already recorded, especially of the rarer 
items. In the future it may be possible to publish a supplement 
containing this information: in the meantime I shall feel myself 
in duty bound to act as a clearing-house. 

In beginning the pleasant task of tlte many 

obligations 1 have incurred in the, course of my work it is natural 
that I should think first of Professor Cfiatmcey Brewster linker, 
under whose direction my dissertation written, and 

interest in it and its author lias nuver To the 

and cheerful of the of the various in

Preface 

which I have worked, and in particular of the staffs of the four 
libraries which have borne the chief burden, I owe more than I can 
adequately express. Yale University, by granting me a Sterling 
Fellowship for the year 1928-9, gave me my only opportunity to 
work consistently on this project for an extended period. To the 
following persons who have aided me with information and advice 
I wish to return my sincere thanks: Dr. J. Quiricy Adams, 
Professor T. H. Banks, Professor J. M. Berdaxi, Dr. R. W. Chap- 
man, Miss Margaret Dowling, Mr. C. K. Edwards, Mr. Strickland 
Gibson, Miss Belle cla Costa Greene, Miss Emily H. Hall, Professor 
R. G. Ham, Dr. Brice Harris, Mr. C. L. Kindle, Mr. Percival F. 
Hinton, Dr. Warren H. Lowenhaupt, Mr. Falconer Madan, Mr. L. 
Quincy Mumford, Professor David Nichol Smith, Mrs. A. May 
Osier, Dr. E. B. Reed, Professor Hyder E, Rollins, the late Mr. 
F. M* Rushmore, Miss Cora E. Sanders, Mr. Gilbert M. Troxell, 
Mr. F. McD. C. Turner, Mr. Newport B. White, Mr. lolo A. 
Williams, and Mr. George P. Winship. Two whose interest and 
assistance meant much to me ate no longer here to share my 
pleasure in the completion of my taskmy father* Mr. Charles R 
Case, and my friend Professor Frederick B. Kayo. 

I have withheld to the last any reference to the two scholars 
to whom tliis book is more indebted than to any others Mr. 
Norman Ault and Dr. R. B, McKcrrow. For some time Mr. Ault 
and I, unknown to each other, worked along parallel lines. The 
publication, in xqaH, of his Seventeenth Century Lyrics effected our 
acquaintance, ami since that time we haw (exchanged information 
to our mutual advantage. Those who know I)n McKrrrow will 
not find it hard to guess the nature, and the extent of his contri- 
butions to this book. From the moment when the Bibliographical 
Society undertook its publication, in 1929, down to the present he 
has been a constant source of assistance and good counsel. Ills 
labours in connexion with the putting of the book through the 
hm kindly patience* during this delays which have

attended its printing, have left me deep in his debt. Indeed, his 
connexion with the book goes much farther back, for it was his 
Notes on Bibliographical Evidence which first interested mo in the 
art and science of bibliography. I cannot transfer to his shoulders 

any of the blame for my errors, but if there is any value in this 
book he is entitled to a godfather's share of the credit*

THE METHOD OF DESCRIPTION 
r | ^HE books have been described in chronological order, the 

1 determining factor being the date of the earliest known 
edition. After the description of this edition there follow 
descriptions of subsequent editions clown to the year 1750: editions 
printed in later years are recorded in the notes. All the books 
entered have been personally examined, either by me, or, in some 
few instances, by a deputy: in the latter case an obelus has been 
placed after the name of the library in which the copy rests. 

The transcripts of title-pages differentiate among roman, italic, 
and black-letter type, but do not indicate the relative sizes of the 
founts used. The long T* has not been reproduced because it was 
felt that such a procedure would be unnecessarily troublesome 
and expensive, but otherwise the transcripts are as exact as the 
author has been able to make them. The term 'sic' has not been 
employed. Square brackets indicate that the,!; title-page from which 
the transcript has been made has been mutilated, and that the 
matter within the brackets is a conjectural restoration. Occa- 
sionally an original title-page bears a statement (usually concerning 
the price of the book) within square brackets, but it is not probable 
that cases of this kind will euiise any confusion. The phrase * orna- 
ment * refers to ornaments produced by means of type or of wood 
blocks: engraved, ornaments are indicated by the word * vignette'. 
Devices recorded in Dr. R, 11 McKtTrow's/V/^/erns'it/^/^fr/iVienv 1 
Devices are noted when they occur* 

In the collations the terms 'quarto', 'octavo", &e, refer to the 
folding of the sheet, not to the si?,e of tht* page. The phrases *H 
leaves', * i leaf \ &t\, indicate leaves belonging to a gathering which 
contains no signature: similarly the? phrase '8 pages" moans eight 
unnumbered pages. In no case has a signature been supplu*! far 
a gathering which has mi .signatures: e*g., if In an octavo book the 
first are unsigned and the next gathering Is signed II, 

ix 



The Method of Description 

the description begins '8 leaves, B-X 8 *, not '[A], B~~X 8 '. On the 
other hand, where the numbers of a series of unnumbered pages 
can be inferred with certainty this has been done: this practice 
has not been extended, however, to unnumbered pages at the end 
of a book. Thus a book of 48 pages, the last three of which were 
unnumbered, has been described as follows: 'Title, p. [i] ; blank, 
p. [2] ; text, pp. 3-45, 3 pp. ' * Index * means an alphabetical index : 
'table of contents* denotes a list of the contents in the order in 
which they appear in the book. 

It was felt that the recording of certain types of irregularities 
would assist in distinguishing between issues, and perhaps lead 
to the discovery of others, Obviously it would have been impossible 
to examine each book minutely, but it was practicable to record 
such cancels as could be detected iri the course of an ordinarily 
careful inspection, and also to note irregularities in signatures and 
pagination. Since the great majority of the books described belong 
to the period between 1660 and 1750, the practice* of that period 
in the matter of signatures has been taken as the norm: that is, 
folios, quartos, and octavos have been regarded as regular if the 
leaves of the first half of each gathering are signed ; duodecimos, 
if the first five leaves are signed. Variations from this practice, as 
well as misprints in signatures or page-numbers, have been noted. 
No notice has been taken of the omission of signatures or page*" 
numbers from title-pages, half-titles, or other pages which, tor 
aesthetic reasons, are not normally signed or numbered. Printers 
in the earlier period so frequently used U and V intiTdmngoaWy 
in the signatures of the .same gathering ihat this irregularity has 
not been regarded an worth recording. 

I have tried to be consistent in my use* of the words 'edition* 
and 'issue'. 'Second edition % as I have employed flit* term, indi- 
cates a complete or nearly complete new setting of tyjw*. 'Nt*w 
issue* indicates a book much of which has priniwt frcnii uu 

earlier netting of type, but which (u) u tlii'fcreut 

x, 



The Method of Description 

(b) a considerable number of pages printed from a new setting of 
type, or (c) material not included in the earlier issue. It is not 
easy to distinguish between 'issues* and 'variants', especially since 
it is now clear that the practice of making corrections while a book 
was on the press continued into the eighteenth century, and that 
ordinarily no attempt was made to distinguish between corrected 
and uncorrected sheets when books were assembled for binding. 
Perhaps the hardest cases to decide have been those of the memorial 
miscellanies issued by the universities : it is frequently impossible 
to tell, in the absence of external evidence, whether one is dealing 
with perfect and imperfect copies of the same issue, or with two 
issues, one of which contains additional material. 

I have, of course, made use of many bibliographical aids, but 
I have not often referred to them in my notes, nor, indeed, have 
I attached extended notes to my descriptions, excopt in instances 
in which I felt that I was in possession of information that was not 
easily accessible in print. The chief exceptions to my general rule 
have been the references to Professor Hyder K. Rollins 1 ** series of 
Elizabethan reprints and to Mr. Falconer Madan's Oxford Hooks. 

My survey has boon based upon the holdings of four of the five 
libraries which seem to be richest in English poetical miscellanies 
* - the* British Museum, the Bodleia.ii, ami the libraries of Yah* and 
Harvard, The extent of these holdings is indicated in the notes to 
the entries in thin bibliography. It is one of my greatest regrets 
that I was unable to visit and make use of the, Huntington Library, 
but its resources have, in some cases, been called upon* I have 
made no systematic search in any libraries* other than the four 
first mentioned, Whtsn, however, neither the British Museum nor 
the Bodleian possessed a copy of a particular miscellany ami I 
happened to know of tlia existence of a copy in ome other Knglish 
library, public or private, I noted the fact, and I* followed a simitar 
practice with regard to txuiks owned in America bit I not represented 
by copies at Yak* or Harvard,

This unique volume, which is obviously made tip from a number of collec- 

tions, was imwxurutely dwribed and m part reprinted by Philip Bliss in 

ttiblingmt>hifial Mhwllanics (Oxfonl, iHij). Thenwifter it was negk^ctt^l for 

more than a century, and all trace of it seemed to be lost until threes or four 

years ago, A new edition of the volume, reprinting the contents* in facsimile, 

and dkatssiiig the various bibliographical problems involved, was edited 

by Edward Bliss Reed, and published in Cambridge, MOSH., in 1932; the 

description given here is taken from this reprint. 

Bliss is resfxittsibb for the dating of the book; he based his conclusions on

omitted all reference to the headship of the Church, Trench also shows that 
in a book printed by Wayland, dated Jan. i, 1555, the letters patent do not 
call Mary head of the Church, although in other respects they follow the 
earlier form. Dr. Marguerite Hearsay, in an unpublished doctoral disserta- 
tion (Yale, 1927) contends that the printing was begun by John Day and con- 
tinued by Wayland after Day's incarceration in the Tower on Oct. 16,1554.

Register by Henry Sutton, between July 19, 1557 and July 9, 1558. It may 
have been one of the two books described above. 

Two leaves of what may have been an earlier edition of this miscellany are 
in the library of the University of Texas. The first of these leaves has the 
folio number 44: the text is in black letter: the running head is & IBofce | of 
IBalettm The book is not included in this bibliography because it is impos- 
sible to say at present whether it is a miscellany or an edition of Wyat's 
poems. For descriptions and discussions of the contents see letters by 
Professor R. H. Griffith and Professor Robert Adger Law in The Times 
Literary Supplement, July 5, 1928, Dec. 25, 1929, and Sept. 4, 1930.

This is the only remaining fragment of an early edition of A Handful of 
Pleasant Delights, preserved in the Bagford ballad collection (B.M. 643. m. 9. 
(83)). The title given above is taken from the running-head of this single 

leaf, which corresponds to the running-head of the 1584 edition. The title 
used on the title-page is unknown. For the evidence as to the date, and for 
a discussion as to possibility of other editions preceding the 1584 edition,
