The Complete Works of Richard Crashaw, Volume II
Crashaw, Richard
English poetry -- Early modern, 1500-1700
As neither Crashaw nor his early Editors furnished Contents to the
Epigrammata et Poemata, we are left free to decide thereon; and
inasmuch as (_a_) our translations are intended to make Vol. II. as
generally accessible and understood as Vol. I, and as (_b_) very few
of those here first printed have headings, or the Scripture-texts
only--we have deemed it expedient to give as Contents the subjects
in English. The Scholar-student will find the Latin headings of the
Author in their places. In the right-hand margin the initials of the
respective Translators are given; on which see pp. 4-5, and Notes to
the successive divisions. [*] on left-hand margin indicates there is
a Greek version also: [†] printed for first time: [‡] translated for
first time. G.
I. SACRED EPIGRAMS, 1-164. 1634-1670.
