The text of 1648 corresponds pretty closely, except in the usual changes of orthography, with our text (1652): and 1670, in like manner, follows that of 1646. 1646 edition furnishes some noticeable variations: Line 1, 'large' for 'great.' " 2-4 restored to their place here. TURNBULL gives them in a foot-note with this remark: 'So in the Paris edition of 1652. In all the others, Fear it not, sweet, It is no hypocrite, Much larger in itself, than in its book.' This is a mistake. The only edition that omits the lines (5-13) besides the first (1646) and substitutes these three is that of 1670. Lines 5-13 not in 1646 edition: first appeared in 1648 edition. "  14, 'choise' for 'rich.' " 15, 'hoasts' for 'host.' " 17, 'Ten thousand.' " 20. Our text (1652) here and elsewhere misreads 'their:' silently corrected. Line 22. Our text (1652) misprints 'their' for 'the:' as 'the' is the reading of 1648 and 1670, I have adopted it. Line 24, 'the' for 'an.' " 27, 'hand' for 'hands.' " 37, 1648 edition has 'its' for 'his.' " 44. Our text (1652) oddly misprints 'besom' for 'bosome:' the latter reading in 1646, 1648 and 1670 vindicates itself. 1646 reads 'her' and 1648 'its' for 'his.' Line 50, 'comes' for 'come.' " 51, 'wandring' for 'loytering.' " 54. The allusion is to one of the names of Satan, viz. Baal-zebub = fly-god, dunghill-god. Line 55, 'pleasures.' "  57. Our text (1652) inadvertently drops 'in.' 1648 has 'i' th'.' Line 59. Our text misprints 'spheares:' 1648 adopts 'spheare' from 1646 edition. 1670 misprints 'spear.' Line 62, 'forswearing:' a classic word. " 64, 'git' is the spelling. " 65. All the editions save our text (1652) omit 'meanwhile.' Line 66, 'the' for 'that.' " 69, 'These' for 'Those,' by mistake. " 78, 'doth' for 'does' I have adopted here. " 83, 1648, by misprint, has 'O' for 'Of.' " 84, 'An hundred thousand loves and graces.' " 90. I have accepted 'hidden' before 'store' from 1646 edition. Line 101. I have also adopted this characteristic line from 1646 edition. In all the others (except 1670) it is 'Selected dove.' Line 107, 'soule' for 'indeed.' " 114, 'that' for 'the.' " 121-122. In 1648 printed as _supra_, the lines probably indicating a blank where the MS. was illegible. In our text (1652) we have two lines, but no blank indicated. Line 124, 'soul' for 'proof.' " 127, 'a' for 'her.' G. TO THE SAME PARTY: COVNCEL CONCERNING HER CHOISE.[45]
