[Footnote 6: Chambers includes it in his Appendix A, _Doubtful
Poems_, but seems to lean to the view that it is by Roe. The
second is printed as Donne's by Grosart and as presumably
Donne's by Chambers. ]
[Footnote 7: In _O'F_ and _S_, where they also occur, they
are more dispersed; but these manuscripts have, like _1635_,
adopted a classification of the poems they contain which
involves their distribution as songs, elegies, letters
and satires. _A10_ is the most significant witness. This
manuscript contains very few poems by Donne. Why should it
select just this suspicious group? ]
[Footnote 8: Among the marriage licences granted by the Bishop
of London in 1601 (_Harleian Society Publications_) is the
following: 'Henry Sackford the younger, of the Charter House,
Gent; 27, father dead, and Sarah Rowe of St Johns in St John's
Street, co. Middlesex, Maiden, dau. of John Rowe of Clapham,
Beds, Esq. decd (i. e. deceas'd) about 9 years since,' &c. ]
[Footnote 9: See the genealogies given in the _Harleian
Society Publications_, vol. xiii, 1878, from the _Visitation
of Essex_ 1612 (pp.
282-3) and the _Visitation of Essex_ 1634
(p. 479). ]
[Footnote 10: The oldest was the John Rowe of Clapham, Beds.
The second, Henry, was also Mayor of London and was knighted
in 1603. The fourth, Robert, was the father of the
ambassador, and died while his son was a child. There were two
daughters--Mary, who married Thomas Randall, and Elizabeth,
who married William Garret of Dorney, co. Bucks. The son of
the latter couple was Donne's intimate friend George Gerrard
or Garrard. ]

Provost of Queen's has kindly informed me that in the College
books his name is entered simply as 'Rowe' and as having
entered 'Ter. Mich.
