Notes

 
[1]

A printer's error.

[2]

Arthur H. Cash, Laurence Sterne, The Early and Middle Years (1975), p. 78. The poem is not mentioned.

[3]

Dodsleys Collection of Poetry . . . (1910), pp. 84-98.

Dorothy Brewster, Aaron Hill, Poet, Dramatist, Projector (1913), pp. 63-68 passim.

[5]

Norma Russell, A Bibliography of William Cowper to 1837 (1963), pp. 161-188.

[6]

Appropriate for inclusion on p. 136 of Norma Russell's bibliography. Oxford gives the title "Inscription for a Stone Erected at the Sowing of a Grove of Oaks," etc.

[7]

So, too, with a piece critical of Cowper in the 1786 GM (pp. 305-307), which might have found a place in the section on "Biography and Criticism of Cowper," pp. 241-265.

[8]

See James Kuist, The Nichols File of "The Gentleman's Magazine" . . . (1982), p. 52 for the identification.

[9]

A Life of Thomas Chatterton (1930), p. 453.

[10]

P. 317 in Maurice Hare's ed. of the 3rd ed. of Tyrwhitt's Poems Supposed to Have Been Written at Bristol, by Thomas Rowley, and Others, in the Fifteenth Century (1911).

See Taylor, I. xxvi-xxvii for description of the MSS.

Meyerstein, Life, p. 133.

Lurdanes, i.e. Lord Danes, from the arrogance theſe conquerors aſſumed; but when they were expelled this iſland, Lurdane became a word of reproach and contempt, and ſignified a lazy idle fellow.

See Milton Quarterly, 10 (1976), 32-39; N&Q, N.S. 27 (1980), 57-59. I am preparing his notes on Shakespeare for publication.
