'Love, with what strange tyrannic laws must they Comply, which are subjected to thy sway! How far all justice thy commands decline Which though they hope forbid, yet love enjoin!' The elision of the relative pronoun between lines 3 and 4 of the present text, and again in the course of line 5, is an irritating mannerism of the time, nowhere more frequent than in Stanley. 23:2. P. 31, line 9. 1657: 'hope.' 23:3. P. " line 10. 1647: 'hopes as cold'; 1657: 'thoughts that's cold.' 23:4. P. 31, line 14. 1647: 'When death and cold despair inhabit near?' And 1657: 'When death and old despair inhabit here?' 23:5. P. 31, line 15. 1647: 'Rule in my breast alone, or else retire.' 23:6. P. " line 16. 1647: 'thy.' 23:7. P. " lines 17-18. The closing couplet of 1647 reads: 'Or let me not desire, or else possess! Neither, or both, are equal happiness.' And 1657: 'Thus let me ... Either, or both ...' _Song: 'Faith, 'tis not worth your pains'_ (p. 31). 24:1. P. 31, lines 2-3. 1657, blunderingly: 'To seek t'inspire A heart so pure as mine.' 24:2. P. " line 12. 1647: 'you'll.' _Expectation_ (p. 32). 25:1. P. 32, line 5. 1647: 'or.' _The Breath_ (p. 33). 26:1. P. 33, line 8. _Sic_ in 1647 and 1657. 'He back receives': 1651. 26:2. P. " line 11. 1647 and 1657 have: 'Which, while he sportively.' Gamble evidently had the 1647 copy of this song before him, as he follows it throughout, slighting Stanley's corrections of 1651. 26:3. P. 33, line 16. 1647 and 1657: 'back.' _The Night: a Dialogue_ (p. 34). 27:1. P. 34, line 1. 'Chariessa' is misprinted, in 1651, 'Charissa.'

The editions of 1647 and 1651 start off: 'Sickness, in vain thou dost invade A beauty that can never fade.'

P. 35, line 6. 1647, 1651: 'One o' th' sweets which crown this Fair.' But 1657: 'On those sweets which crown her fair.' 28:3. P. 35, line 9. 'Blushing' in the earlier versions. 28:4. P. " line 10. 'Drooping' in the earlier versions. 28:5. P. " line 16. 'But' in 1657, to the confusion of the sense. 29:1. _To Celia: Excuse for Wishing her less Fair_ (p. 36). 'To Celia' is omitted in 1651. 29:2. P. 36, lines 9-10. 1647: 'Men might languish, and not die At thy then less scorching fire.' 29:3. P. " line 23. 'Than': 1657. 30:1. _Celia, Sleeping or Singing_ (p. 37).
