Greenes Neuer too Late. Both Partes. Sent to all youthfull Gentlemen,
deciphering in a true English Historie, those particular vanities, that
with their Frostie vapours, nip the blossomes of euery braine, from
attaining to his intended perfection. As pleasant as profitable, being a
right Pumice stone, apt to race out idlenesse with delight, and folly
with admonition. By Robert Greene, In artibus Magister. Omne tulit
punctum. _London, Printed by William Stansby for Iohn Smithwicke, and
are to bee sold at his Shop in Saint Dunstanes Churchyard in

Collation: A-Q⁴, unpaged. Epistle dedicatory to Thomas Barnaby,
signed. Address to the readers, signed. Verses by Ralph Sidney and
Rich. Hake. The first edition of Part I appeared in 1590; Part II
the same year under the title of ‘Francescos Fortunes’; the two
parts together for the first time in 1600. The date, which is
shorn, appears to be either 1621 or 1631. It is not the same
edition as any of the BM copies, but the titlepage corresponds
almost exactly with that of the 1616 edition.
