_London_, 1649. " This is
the only poem which we know of Herrick's, written after 1648, and even
in this Herrick uses materials already employed in "Charon and the
Nightingale" in _Hesperides_.

_Epitaph on the Tomb of Sir Edward Giles. _ First printed by Dr. Grosart
from the monument in Dean Prior Church. Sir Edward Giles was the
occupant of Dean Court and the magnate of the parish.




APPENDIX I.

HERRICK'S POEMS IN WITTS RECREATIONS.


Both Mr. Hazlitt and Dr. Grosart have slightly misrepresented the
relation of _Hesperides_ to the anthology known as _Witts Recreations_:
Mr. Hazlitt by mistakes as to their respective contents; Dr. Grosart
(after a much more careful collation) by taking down the date of the
wrong edition. To put matters straight four editions have to be
examined:--

I. "Witts Recreations.
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.
