Thomas Stanley: His Original Lyrics, Complete, In Their Collated Readings of 1647, 1651, 1657.: With an Introduction, Textual Notes, a List of Editions, an Appendix of Translations, and a Portrait.
Stanley, Thomas
English poetry -- Early modern, 1500-1700; Stanley, Thomas, 1625-1678
What if Night 34
When, cruel fair one, I am slain 46
When, dearest Beauty, thou shalt pay 63
When, dearest Friend, thy verse doth re-inspire 18
When deceitful lovers lay 29
When I lie burning in thine eye 42
When on thy lip my soul I breathe 49
When Phoebus saw a rugged bark beguile [Marino] 74
When thou thy pliant arms dost wreathe [Secundus] 77
Whence took the diamond worth? the borrow'd rays 2
Why thy passion should it move 36
With a whip of lilies, Love [Anacreon] 78
Within the covert of a shady grove [Plato] 82
Wits that matur'd by time have courted praise 21
Wrong me no more 39
Yet ere I go 66
You earthly souls that court a wanton flame 54
You that unto your mistress' eyes 56

Transcriber's Notes:
1. Obvious punctuation errors in the preface and textual notes have
been fixed without further note, but punctuation within poems
remains as printed in the original book.
2. Line numbers in the poems are as printed in the original book,
even in cases where they may seem inconsistent.
3. Page xiii: In the quote by Hammond, "you too" has been corrected
to "you two".
4. Page 36: The reference to note 2 was missing and has been added.
5. Page 79: In IV. The Combat, the line numbering should probably
restart at 1, rather than continuing from III. The printed
numbering has been retained.
6. Page 81: The text note reference on line 13 of V was missing and
has been added.
7. Page 100: The reference in text note 66:1 to line 5 of No. IV has
been corrected to refer to No. V instead.
8. Page 100: The note numbers in the notes for 'Translations from
Anacreon' were inconsistent with the numbers actually used in the
poems, and have been corrected.
9. The book has a number of inconsistencies in spelling, word usage,
or style of citation in the List of Editions, all of which have
been retained. Some of them are noted here:
church yard, church-yard, and churchyard
Princes-Arms and Princes Armes
St. Pauls and S. Pauls
Fo. and F^o. (Folio)
re-inspire and reinspire
James Allestrey and James Allestry
