ROBERT GREENE'S PROSE WORKS.
(See 10 th S. iv. 1, 81, 162, 224, 483.)
Greene and Lodge.
GREENE and Lodge worked together and were friends. Lodge's most interesting piece, to us, is 'Euphues' Golden Legacie ' (1590), which is a thoroughly Euphuistic prose romance, interspersed with dainty songs, and on which Shakespeare built ' As You Like It.' It is only with regard to this tract I have to speak of Lodge, who was, as is well known, an unblushing plagiarist, especially of Italian sonnets. Lodge's tract, which may be simply called 'Rosalynd,' is of the same class as Greene's prose tales, but to my thinking it is better told and of more coherent interest than any of Greene's. There is very much of Greene's undoubted writing in * Rosalynd' so much so that it is hard to
believe that he did not touch it up for the
press. It is very odd how his peculiarities
come in ; sometimes there are expressions
that appear only later in Greene, but there
are about forty phrases and terms in 'Rosa-
lynd ' that cannot readily be paralleled except
elsewhere in Greene Greenisms, in fact.
They are Euphuistic, but not in * Euphues.' It
is not satisfactory to attribute them to Lodge's
plagiaristic tricks. Lodge says he wrote
'Rosalynd ' while he, " with Captaine Clarke,
made a voyage to the islands of Terceras and
Canaries to beguile the time " (' Shakespeare's
Library'). That voyage took place in 1588,
and in 1591 Lodge was again on his travels.
In that year (1591-2) Lodge and Greene pro-
duced 'A Looking-Glass for London and
England, 3 a powerful drama. It is not at
all improbable that Greene may have been
entrusted with ' Rosalynd ' for publication.
In order to enforce this theory I will give
a concise list of parallels, the references to-
Lodge being to Hazlitt's 'Shakespeare
Library.'
"Women are wantons, yet man cannot want one," Lodge, pp. 17 and 77. " Who was fairer than Venus 1 but such a wanton as she would never want one," Greene, 'Mourning. Garment 3 (ix. 196), 1590. And again later (x. 245), 1592.
" The Hiena when she mpurnes is then most
guileful," Lodge, 19. "It is proper to the
Hiena to be guileful," Greene, 'Mamillia' (ii. 263), 1583.
" When the shoares of Lepanthus are most quiet, then they forepoint a storme," Lodge, 16. " Like the windes that rise in the shoares of Lapanthus," Greene, 'Never too Late' (viii. 16), 1590. And in 4 Menaphon 3 (vi. 40), 1589, &c.
"The Baatan [ed. 1592 reads Baarran] leafe the more fayre it lookes the more infectious it is," Lodge, 16. " Like to the Baaran flower, which is most pleasant to the eye, but who so toucheth it feeleth pleasant smarte," Greene, 'Tritameron,' Pt. I. (iii. 86), 1584. And again ii. 174 and 260 ; ix. 187, &c. A favourite myth with Greene : " Bacan leaf," at viii. 6.
" Naturam expellas furca licet, tamen usque recurret," Lodge, 19. Greene, ' Euphues to Philautus' (vi. 180), 1587. But quoted earlier in Edwards's * Damon and Pithias.' "Natura naturans " on the same page in Lodge is also in Greene's * Never too Late ' (viii. 25), but frequent earlier in technical sense.
"Sirha (quoth he) what is your heart on your halfpenny 1 " Lodge, 22, *'She stood as though her heart had bin on her halfepeny,"
