Comments:

Attributions: The items by Hopkins in 'The History of Love' have been treated as 'not attributed in miscellany', because the title page describes that text as 'by several eminent hands' and texts by Scrope and Tate are indiscriminately mixed in with the original pieces. The order of the items has been disrupted, destroying the coherence of the piece. Contents: Notes are placed at foot of page rather than at the end of the poem. Place: ESTC suggests 'London?'.

Other matter:

Prefatory matter: Verse dedication to Burlington, sigs. Ar-v. Introduction, pp. [iii]-viii.
