Selected from the finest Fancies of Moderne
Muses, With a Thousand out Landish Proverbs. _London. Printed for
Humph. Blunden at ye Castle in Cornhill, 1640. _ 8vo. "

This general title-page is engraved by W. Marshall. The Outlandish
Proverbs were selected by George Herbert, and, like the first part, have
a printed title-page of their own.

II. "Witts Recreations. Augmented with Ingenious Conceites for the
wittie and Merrie Medicines for the Melancholie. _London. Printed
for Humph. Blunden: at ye Castle in Cornhill, 1641. _ 8vo.
"

In this, and subsequent editions, Marshall's title-page is re-engraved
and the Outlandish Proverbs are omitted. The printed title-page reads:
"Wit's Recreations. Containing 630 Epigrams, 160 Epitaphs. Variety of
Fancies and Fantasticks, Good for Melancholly humours. _London. Printed
by Thomas Cotes_," etc. The epigrams vary considerably from the
selection in the previous edition.

III. "Witts Recreations refined. Augmented, with Ingenious Conceites
for the wittie, and Merrie Medicines for the Melancholie. . . . "

In the Museum copy of this edition the imprint to the engraved title has
been cropped away. The printed title-page reads: "Recreation for
Ingenious Head-peeces. Or, A Pleasant Grove for their Wits to walke in.
