The poem _Upon the translation of the Psalmes by Sir Philip Sydney, and the Countesse of Pembroke his Sister_, if by Donne, was probably written late in his life and never widely circulated. It occurred to me that the author might be John Davies of Hereford, who was a dependent of the Countess and her two sons, and who made a calligraphic copy of the _Psalms_ of Sidney and his sister, from which they were printed by Singer in 1823. But Professor Saintsbury considers, I think justly, that the 'wit' of the opening lines, Eternall God (for whom who ever dare Seeke new expressions, doe the Circle square, And thrust into strait corners of poore wit Thee who art cornerlesse and infinite), is above Davies' level, and indeed the whole poem is. The lines _To Mr. Tilman after he had taken orders_ (22 on the list) were also probably privately communicated to the person to whom they were addressed. The best argument for their genuineness is that Walton seems to quote from them when he describes Donne's preaching. For they doe As Angels out of clouds, from Pulpits speake, must have suggested 'always preaching to himself, like an angel from a cloud, but in none'. This does not, however, carry us very far. Walton had seen the editions of 1635 and 1639 before he wrote these lines in 1640. The verse _On the Sacrament_ (23 on the list) is probably assigned to Donne by a pure conjecture. It is very frequently attributed to Queen Elizabeth. Of the two poems added in _1649_ the lines _Upon Mr. Thomas Coryats Crudities_ are of course Donne's. They appeared with his name in his lifetime, and Donne is one of the friends mentioned by Coryat in his letters from India. _The Token_ (4 on the list) may or may not be Donne's. It is found in several, but no very good, manuscripts. Its wit is quite in Donne's style, though not absolutely beyond the compass of another. The poems which the younger Donne added in _1650_ are in much the same position. 'He that cannot chose but love' (5 on the list) is a trifle, whoever wrote it. 'The heavens rejoice in motion' (10 on the list) is in a much stronger strain of paradox, and if not Donne's is by an ambitious and witty disciple. If genuine, it is strange that it did not find its way into more collections. It is found in _A10_, where a few of Donne's poems are given with others by Roe, Hoskins, and other wits of his circle. It is also, however, given in _JC_, a manuscript containing in its first part few poems that are not demonstrably genuine. As things stand, the balance of evidence is in favour of Donne's authorship. Besides the _Elegies XVIII_ and _XIX_, which are Donne's, as we have seen, and the _Satyre_ 'Sleep next Society', which is not Donne's, the edition of 1669 prefixed to the song _Breake of Day_ a fresh stanza: Stay, O sweet, and do not rise.
