Note generali

Pages 369-391 in Latin.

Most of the pieces have special t.p. dated 1678; "Prosopopoia" and "The shepherds calendar" also have separate paging.

"Brittain's Ida" first ascribed to Spenser by Thomas Walkley in 1628, is now generally assigned to Phineas Fletcher.

The editorship has been attributed, probably erroneously to Dryden. Cf. Johnson, F.R.  A critical bibliography of the works of Edmund Spenser, 1933, p. 53-56.

In double columns.
