Notes
For Haward and his miscellany see my Scribal Publication in Seventeenth-century England (Oxford, 1993), pp. 211 — 217. The significance of the "linked group" will be discussed in a forthcoming paper on "In th' Isle of Britain" to appear in English Manuscript Studies.
For the conditions under which texts were read and circulated at the court of Charles II, see Scribal Publication, pp. 207 — 211, and my "Hamilton's Mémoires de la vie du comte de Grammont and the Reading of Rochester," to appear in Restoration.
I base this supposition on the unusual fact for a lampoon of this period that, with the exception of a single stanza in the Haward "Additions," he is not himself attacked in the poem.
"A Restoration Lampoon," pp. 250, 252. For the scriptorium, see W. J. Cameron, "A Late Seventeenth-century Scriptorium," Renaissance and Modern Studies 7 (1963), 25 — 52, and Love, Scribal Publication, pp. 271 — 279, and "The 'Cameron' Scriptorium revisited" in An Index of Civilisation: Studies of Printing and Publishing History in Honour of Keith Maslen, ed. D. R. Harvey and B. J. McMullin (Melbourne, 1993), pp. 79 — 87.
