*** _Of the Poets of the Restoration, there are none whose works
are more rare than those of Sir John Mennis and Dr. James Smith.
The small volume entitled "Musarum Deliciæ; or, The Muses'
Recreation," which contains the productions of these two friends,
was not accessible to Mr. Freeman when he compiled his "Kentish
Poets," and has since become so rare that it is only found in
the cabinets of the curious. A reprint of the "Musarum Deliciæ,"
together with several other kindred pieces of the period,
appeared in 1817, forming two volumes of Facetiæ, edited by Mr.
E. Dubois, author of "The Wreath," &c. These volumes having in
turn become exceedingly scarce, the Publishers venture to put
forth the present new edition, in which, while nothing has been
omitted, no pains have been spared to render it more complete
and elegant than any that has yet appeared. The type, plates,
and woodcuts of the originals have been accurately followed;
the notes of the Editor of 1817 are considerably augmented,
and indexes have been added, together with a portrait of Sir
John Mennis, from a painting by Vandyke in Lord Clarendon's
Collection._
