342 NOTES
��From Underwoods (1640). The first, An Ode, is addressed to an innominate not yet, I believe, identified. The second is part of that Ode to the Immortal Memory of that Heroic Pair, Sir Lucius Cary and Sir Henry Morrison, which is the first true Pindaric in the language. Gifford ascribes it to 1629, when Sir Henry died, but it seems not to have been printed before 1640. Sir Lucius Cary is the Lord Falkland of Clarendon and Horace Walpole.
��From The Mad Lover (produced about 1618: published in 1640). Compare the wooden imitations of Dryden in Amboyna and else- where.
��First printed, Mr. Bullen tells me, in 1640. Compare X. (Shirley, post, p. 20), and the cry from Raleigh's History of the World: 'O Eloquent, Just, and Mighty Death! Whom none could advise, thou hast persuaded ; what none hath dared, thou hast done ; and whom all the World hath flattered, thou only hast cast out of the World and despised : thou hast drawn together all the far-stretched Greatness, all the Pride, Cruelty, and Ambition of Man, and covered it all over with these two narrow words, "Hie Jacet" '

��No. 61, ' Vertue' in The Temple : Sacred Poems and Private Ejaculations, 1632-33. Compare Herbert to Christopher Farrer, as reported by Izaak Walton : 'Tell him that I do not repine, but am pleased with my want of health ; and tell him, my heart is fixed on that place where true joy is only to be found, and that I long to be there, and do wait for my appointed change with hope and patience.'
��From The Contention of Ajax and Ulysses, printed 1659. Com- pare VI. (Beaumont, ante, p. 15), and Bacon, Essays, ' On Death ' :
