NOTES AND QUERIES. [io s. xr. JUNE 5, im


Bastard, T. 12 quotations, all traced by Collier, who found one of them unsigned.

Bryskett, Lodo. 2 quotations, traced, but wrongly assigned to Edna. Spenser.

Campion, Thos. 3 quotations, signed " E. of O." one of which is mingled with lines from Greene's ' Menaphon.' As stated, " Content " is the pseudonym of Campion, for the nonce.

Cavill. Not named in 'E.P.' See

  • Mirror for Magistrates.'

Chapman, Geo. 84 quotations, six of which remain untraced. ' E.P.' signs Spenser's name to three of Chapman's quotations, and it gives Chapman a pas- sage which occurs in ' Tottel's Miscellany,' besides mingling one of his lines with two others, which remain unidentified.

Churchyard, T. 6 quotations, one un- traced. In addition to these, Churchyard is to be credited with three quotations from ' The Mirror for Magistrates,' which see.

Constable, H. 10 quotations, all traced.

  • E.P.' signs Constable's name to two other

extracts which were taken from Drayton's 4 Epistles.'

" Content." See Campion.

Daniel, S. 140 quotations, one untraced, under ' Learning,' p. 191. ' E.P.' also assigns to Daniel two quotations from Shakespeare, one from Sir J. Harington, and two from Spenser ; and it mingles two of Daniel's extracts with extracts from Spenser and Lodge.

Davies, Sir J. 49 quotations, one un- traced. One of these was found unsigned, one was assigned to Storer, and another to Lodge.

Dekker, T. 19 quotations, three untraced.

  • E.P.' credits Dekker with lines from

Shakespeare's ' Lucrece,' mingling them with a line which is included among the three untraced passages.

Dolman. See ' Mirror for Magistrates.' Drayton, M. 221 quotations, 32 untraced.

  • E.P.' gives Drayton one passage from

Marston, one from Shakespeare, two from Lodge, and one from Sir J. Harington. On the other hand, five Drayton quotations are erroneously assigned to Spenser, two are allotted to Constable, one to Lodge, and one to Charles Middleton. ' E.P.' also omits to sign one passage which has been traced to Drayton.

Fairfax, Ed. 57 quotations, eleven un- traced. ' E.P.' gives to Sir J. Harington two passages belonging to Fairfax ; and it abbreviates the author's name and poem in one case by using the initials " F.G." ( = " Fairfax's ' Godfrey/ ").


Ferrers. See ' Mirror for Magistrates.'

Fitzgeoffrey, C. 21 quotations, two un- traced. ' E.P.' signs one quotation " Ch. Fitz-Griffon," a clerical error, of course ; and in another case it calls him " G. Geof- frayes," when it wrongly assigns to him a passage from ' Jocasta,' written by G. Gascoigne*

Fraunce, Ab. 16 quotations, all traced by Collier.

" S. G." 1 quotation of thirty-six lines, untraced. " S. G." may turn out to be Stephen Gosson.

Gascoigne, G. 47 quotations, one un- traced. ' E.P.' gives Gascoigne a passage that occurs in Sackville's ' Induction ' to ' The Mirror for Magistrates,' and it signs all ' Jocasta ' quotations with Gascoigne's name, although several of these were really written by Kinwelmarsh. On the other hand, one passage of ' Jocasta,' the work of Gascoigne, is assigned to "G. Geoff rayes," a corruption of Fitzgeoffrey's name.

Greene, R. 32 quotations, all traced. ' E.P.' gives three Spenser quotations to Greene ; and it mingles a line of ' The Tragedie of Selimus,' signed " R. Greene," although, as I have elsewhere tried to prove, it is the work of Marlowe, with a passage from Lodge's ' Wits Miserie.' One Greene quotation is unsigned, and another is mingled with lines from Campion, which is wrongly ascribed to the Earl of Oxford, although subscribed "Content."

Grimald, N. See ' Tottel's Miscellany.'

Guilpin, Edw. 7 quotations, all traced by Collier.

Harington, Sir J. 140 quotations, 22 un- traced. ' E.P.' wrongly assigns to Harington two passages belonging to Fairfax, and two more that have been traced to ' The Mirror for Magistrates.' On the other hand, one of Harington's quotations is unsigned, one is wrongly given to Daniel, one to Lodge, two to Weever, one to Drayton, and one to Spenser.

Higgins, John. See ' Mirror for Magis- trates.'

Hudson, T. 52 quotations, three un- traced. One passage is signed " Th. Had."

" I. Authoris." 1 quotation, untraced.

" Ignoto." 2 quotations, untraced. One of these passages (' Divell,' p. 76) is a poetical rendering of a saying of St. Augustine, which is paralleled in old Tusser's ' Five Hundred Points of Good Husbandry.'

Jonson, Ben. 14 quotations, three un- traced.

Kinwelmarsh, F. See \Gascoigne, G.'
