Andrew Marvell

Lines 147-52 at the end supplied in MS to replace a leaf extracted from the printed text.

Folio, 296 pages; exemplum of the first edition of Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems (London, 1681) with additional MS material, namely: (a) the printed text contains various MS corrections, deletions and emendations (notably on pp. 3-5, 7-11, 14, 19-24, 27-8, 42-3, 46-7, 49, 51-8, 61-70, 72-6, 78, 80, 85, 87-90, 92-3, 95-6, 99-100, 111-14, 132), as well as other crosses, annotations and renumberings; (b) some missing stanzas in seven poems on cancelled (i.e. excised) pages of text are replaced in MS (on pp. 35[-7], 38, 103[-10], 115a-u [115-29], 116a-b [130]); (c) a series of 18 poems in MS (including at least three probably by poets other than Marvell) are bound-in at the end, on pp. 141-285 (those on pp. 272-85 crossed through); the main series of emendations in the printed text and the additional MS pages are in a single hand of c. 1700 except for the lines on p. 269, the second half of On the Monument (When Hodge first spy'd the labour in vain) which are added in another hand to replace the heavily deleted same text on p. 271, and the final poem on pp. 277-85, which is in yet another hand; some annotations and deletions, as well as a series of crosses made subsequently, are in two or three further hands, including notes by the editor captain Edward Thompson (the first dated 1775) on pp. 157, 258; lines by Sir Philip Meadows are added at the foot of p. 63 in a hand resembling that of William Popple the Younger (d. 1772).

This volume, which may originally have been prepared as a collection of Marvell's poems for an intended edition, was evidently used by Edward Thompson in connection with his edition of Marvell in 1766 (see his vol. I, xxxviii et passim, and see further the Introduction for the distinction between this volume and another MS owned by Thompson). It is evident, from details of correspondence, that this is the volume known to have been lent to Thompson by T.J. Matthias, whose wife was a descendant of Marvell's brother-in-law, Edmund Popple, the son of whom was William Popple (1638-1708), Secretary of the Board of Trade; thus it may have been compiled principally by or for William Popple. However, this conjecture cannot at present be proved beyond doubt (see particularly the caveat in Chernaik, pp. 206-7).

Cited in IELM as the Thompson Volume: MaA Δ 1. Described in BLR, 2 (May 1945), 125; in Hugh MacDonald, Andrew Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems, 1681, TLS (13 July 1951), p. 444; and in Margoliouth, I, 233-5.

Facsimiles of select pages of this volume containing MS material are in Miscellaneous Poems, 1681 (1973), and see also Kelliher, p. 65. The various MS corrections and emendations in the printed text are recorded in Margoliouth, but are not given separate entries. The volume has been discussed by all editors since 1776 and also in Kelliher, pp. 63-4, and Chernaik, pp. 206-14. It is largely used as the basis for Lord's edition (1968). For comments on the relation of this volume to the canon, see further the Introduction.

Copy, headed On a faire marble stone nigh a north chappell a black marble y^t had an inscription, now covered w^th paint.

This MS discussed, with facsimiles, in Kelliher (1978), p. 73, and in Hilton Kelliher, Some Notes on Andrew Marvell, British Library Journal, 4/2 (Autumn 1978), 122-44 (pp. 134-9).

Copy of the title and lines 1-8 supplied in MS to replace a leaf extracted from the printed text.

Folio, 296 pages; exemplum of the first edition of Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems (London, 1681) with additional MS material, namely: (a) the printed text contains various MS corrections, deletions and emendations (notably on pp. 3-5, 7-11, 14, 19-24, 27-8, 42-3, 46-7, 49, 51-8, 61-70, 72-6, 78, 80, 85, 87-90, 92-3, 95-6, 99-100, 111-14, 132), as well as other crosses, annotations and renumberings; (b) some missing stanzas in seven poems on cancelled (i.e. excised) pages of text are replaced in MS (on pp. 35[-7], 38, 103[-10], 115a-u [115-29], 116a-b [130]); (c) a series of 18 poems in MS (including at least three probably by poets other than Marvell) are bound-in at the end, on pp. 141-285 (those on pp. 272-85 crossed through); the main series of emendations in the printed text and the additional MS pages are in a single hand of c. 1700 except for the lines on p. 269, the second half of On the Monument (When Hodge first spy'd the labour in vain) which are added in another hand to replace the heavily deleted same text on p. 271, and the final poem on pp. 277-85, which is in yet another hand; some annotations and deletions, as well as a series of crosses made subsequently, are in two or three further hands, including notes by the editor captain Edward Thompson (the first dated 1775) on pp. 157, 258; lines by Sir Philip Meadows are added at the foot of p. 63 in a hand resembling that of William Popple the Younger (d. 1772).

This volume, which may originally have been prepared as a collection of Marvell's poems for an intended edition, was evidently used by Edward Thompson in connection with his edition of Marvell in 1766 (see his vol. I, xxxviii et passim, and see further the Introduction for the distinction between this volume and another MS owned by Thompson). It is evident, from details of correspondence, that this is the volume known to have been lent to Thompson by T.J. Matthias, whose wife was a descendant of Marvell's brother-in-law, Edmund Popple, the son of whom was William Popple (1638-1708), Secretary of the Board of Trade; thus it may have been compiled principally by or for William Popple. However, this conjecture cannot at present be proved beyond doubt (see particularly the caveat in Chernaik, pp. 206-7).

Including thirteen poems and a mock-speech in the Marvell canon and eleven poems by Rochester, as well as apocryphal items, compiled — in stages, probably for the most part in chronological sequence, over a period of up to fifteen years — by Sir William Haward (or Hawarde or Hayward) of Tandridge, Surrey (his signature, dated 21 January 1676/7, on p. 66).

Sir William Haward was knighted in 1643, served as a Gentleman of the Privy Chamber to Charles I, Charles II, James II and William III, was M.P. for Bletchingley (1661-78), a Fellow of the Royal Society (1665) and a Commissioner for the Sale of Fee Farm Rents (1670 onwards); he lived sometime in Scotland Yard and was still living in 1702 (see, inter alia, W. Paley Baildon, The Hawardes of Tandridge Co. Surrey (London, 1894), pp. 23-31). John Evelyn described him as a greate pretender to English antiquities &c:. An autograph letter by him, dated 23 March 1688/9, is in the British Library (Add. MS 29563, f. 453).

Later owned by Peter Le Neve (1661-1729), by his wife Frances Le Neve (signature on p. vii), by their servant Joseph Allen, who entered additional items in 1729, and by her second husband Thomas Martin (1697-1771) of Palgrave. Later in the library of the Aston family of Tixall, Staffordshire (and sold in the Tixall sale at Sotheby's, 7 November 1899, lot 430 to Bertram Dobell (1842-1914)). Afterwards owned by George Thorn-Drury (1860-1931) and sold in 1935 by P.J. Dobell.

Folio, 296 pages; exemplum of the first edition of Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems (London, 1681) with additional MS material, namely: (a) the printed text contains various MS corrections, deletions and emendations (notably on pp. 3-5, 7-11, 14, 19-24, 27-8, 42-3, 46-7, 49, 51-8, 61-70, 72-6, 78, 80, 85, 87-90, 92-3, 95-6, 99-100, 111-14, 132), as well as other crosses, annotations and renumberings; (b) some missing stanzas in seven poems on cancelled (i.e. excised) pages of text are replaced in MS (on pp. 35[-7], 38, 103[-10], 115a-u [115-29], 116a-b [130]); (c) a series of 18 poems in MS (including at least three probably by poets other than Marvell) are bound-in at the end, on pp. 141-285 (those on pp. 272-85 crossed through); the main series of emendations in the printed text and the additional MS pages are in a single hand of c. 1700 except for the lines on p. 269, the second half of On the Monument (When Hodge first spy'd the labour in vain) which are added in another hand to replace the heavily deleted same text on p. 271, and the final poem on pp. 277-85, which is in yet another hand; some annotations and deletions, as well as a series of crosses made subsequently, are in two or three further hands, including notes by the editor captain Edward Thompson (the first dated 1775) on pp. 157, 258; lines by Sir Philip Meadows are added at the foot of p. 63 in a hand resembling that of William Popple the Younger (d. 1772).

This volume, which may originally have been prepared as a collection of Marvell's poems for an intended edition, was evidently used by Edward Thompson in connection with his edition of Marvell in 1766 (see his vol. I, xxxviii et passim, and see further the Introduction for the distinction between this volume and another MS owned by Thompson). It is evident, from details of correspondence, that this is the volume known to have been lent to Thompson by T.J. Matthias, whose wife was a descendant of Marvell's brother-in-law, Edmund Popple, the son of whom was William Popple (1638-1708), Secretary of the Board of Trade; thus it may have been compiled principally by or for William Popple. However, this conjecture cannot at present be proved beyond doubt (see particularly the caveat in Chernaik, pp. 206-7).

Cited in IELM as the Thompson Volume: MaA Δ 1. Described in BLR, 2 (May 1945), 125; in Hugh MacDonald, Andrew Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems, 1681, TLS (13 July 1951), p. 444; and in Margoliouth, I, 233-5.

Facsimiles of select pages of this volume containing MS material are in Miscellaneous Poems, 1681 (1973), and see also Kelliher, p. 65. The various MS corrections and emendations in the printed text are recorded in Margoliouth, but are not given separate entries. The volume has been discussed by all editors since 1776 and also in Kelliher, pp. 63-4, and Chernaik, pp. 206-14. It is largely used as the basis for Lord's edition (1968).

Including thirteen poems and a mock-speech in the Marvell canon and eleven poems by Rochester, as well as apocryphal items, compiled — in stages, probably for the most part in chronological sequence, over a period of up to fifteen years — by Sir William Haward (or Hawarde or Hayward) of Tandridge, Surrey (his signature, dated 21 January 1676/7, on p. 66).

Sir William Haward was knighted in 1643, served as a Gentleman of the Privy Chamber to Charles I, Charles II, James II and William III, was M.P. for Bletchingley (1661-78), a Fellow of the Royal Society (1665) and a Commissioner for the Sale of Fee Farm Rents (1670 onwards); he lived sometime in Scotland Yard and was still living in 1702 (see, inter alia, W. Paley Baildon, The Hawardes of Tandridge Co. Surrey (London, 1894), pp. 23-31). John Evelyn described him as a greate pretender to English antiquities &c:. An autograph letter by him, dated 23 March 1688/9, is in the British Library (Add. MS 29563, f. 453).

Later owned by Peter Le Neve (1661-1729), by his wife Frances Le Neve (signature on p. vii), by their servant Joseph Allen, who entered additional items in 1729, and by her second husband Thomas Martin (1697-1771) of Palgrave. Later in the library of the Aston family of Tixall, Staffordshire (and sold in the Tixall sale at Sotheby's, 7 November 1899, lot 430 to Bertram Dobell (1842-1914)).

Folio, 296 pages; exemplum of the first edition of Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems (London, 1681) with additional MS material, namely: (a) the printed text contains various MS corrections, deletions and emendations (notably on pp. 3-5, 7-11, 14, 19-24, 27-8, 42-3, 46-7, 49, 51-8, 61-70, 72-6, 78, 80, 85, 87-90, 92-3, 95-6, 99-100, 111-14, 132), as well as other crosses, annotations and renumberings; (b) some missing stanzas in seven poems on cancelled (i.e. excised) pages of text are replaced in MS (on pp. 35[-7], 38, 103[-10], 115a-u [115-29], 116a-b [130]); (c) a series of 18 poems in MS (including at least three probably by poets other than Marvell) are bound-in at the end, on pp. 141-285 (those on pp. 272-85 crossed through); the main series of emendations in the printed text and the additional MS pages are in a single hand of c. 1700 except for the lines on p. 269, the second half of On the Monument (When Hodge first spy'd the labour in vain) which are added in another hand to replace the heavily deleted same text on p. 271, and the final poem on pp. 277-85, which is in yet another hand; some annotations and deletions, as well as a series of crosses made subsequently, are in two or three further hands, including notes by the editor captain Edward Thompson (the first dated 1775) on pp. 157, 258; lines by Sir Philip Meadows are added at the foot of p. 63 in a hand resembling that of William Popple the Younger (d. 1772).

This volume, which may originally have been prepared as a collection of Marvell's poems for an intended edition, was evidently used by Edward Thompson in connection with his edition of Marvell in 1766 (see his vol. I, xxxviii et passim, and see further the Introduction for the distinction between this volume and another MS owned by Thompson). It is evident, from details of correspondence, that this is the volume known to have been lent to Thompson by T.J. Matthias, whose wife was a descendant of Marvell's brother-in-law, Edmund Popple, the son of whom was William Popple (1638-1708), Secretary of the Board of Trade; thus it may have been compiled principally by or for William Popple. However, this conjecture cannot at present be proved beyond doubt (see particularly the caveat in Chernaik, pp. 206-7).

Cited in IELM as the Thompson Volume: MaA Δ 1. Described in BLR, 2 (May 1945), 125; in Hugh MacDonald, Andrew Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems, 1681, TLS (13 July 1951), p. 444; and in Margoliouth, I, 233-5.

Folio, 296 pages; exemplum of the first edition of Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems (London, 1681) with additional MS material, namely: (a) the printed text contains various MS corrections, deletions and emendations (notably on pp. 3-5, 7-11, 14, 19-24, 27-8, 42-3, 46-7, 49, 51-8, 61-70, 72-6, 78, 80, 85, 87-90, 92-3, 95-6, 99-100, 111-14, 132), as well as other crosses, annotations and renumberings; (b) some missing stanzas in seven poems on cancelled (i.e. excised) pages of text are replaced in MS (on pp. 35[-7], 38, 103[-10], 115a-u [115-29], 116a-b [130]); (c) a series of 18 poems in MS (including at least three probably by poets other than Marvell) are bound-in at the end, on pp. 141-285 (those on pp. 272-85 crossed through); the main series of emendations in the printed text and the additional MS pages are in a single hand of c. 1700 except for the lines on p. 269, the second half of On the Monument (When Hodge first spy'd the labour in vain) which are added in another hand to replace the heavily deleted same text on p. 271, and the final poem on pp. 277-85, which is in yet another hand; some annotations and deletions, as well as a series of crosses made subsequently, are in two or three further hands, including notes by the editor captain Edward Thompson (the first dated 1775) on pp. 157, 258; lines by Sir Philip Meadows are added at the foot of p. 63 in a hand resembling that of William Popple the Younger (d. 1772).

This volume, which may originally have been prepared as a collection of Marvell's poems for an intended edition, was evidently used by Edward Thompson in connection with his edition of Marvell in 1766 (see his vol. I, xxxviii et passim, and see further the Introduction for the distinction between this volume and another MS owned by Thompson). It is evident, from details of correspondence, that this is the volume known to have been lent to Thompson by T.J. Matthias, whose wife was a descendant of Marvell's brother-in-law, Edmund Popple, the son of whom was William Popple (1638-1708), Secretary of the Board of Trade; thus it may have been compiled principally by or for William Popple. However, this conjecture cannot at present be proved beyond doubt (see particularly the caveat in Chernaik, pp. 206-7).

Cited in IELM as the Thompson Volume: MaA Δ 1. Described in BLR, 2 (May 1945), 125; in Hugh MacDonald, Andrew Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems, 1681, TLS (13 July 1951), p. 444; and in Margoliouth, I, 233-5.

Facsimiles of select pages of this volume containing MS material are in Miscellaneous Poems, 1681 (1973), and see also Kelliher, p. 65. The various MS corrections and emendations in the printed text are recorded in Margoliouth, but are not given separate entries. The volume has been discussed by all editors since 1776 and also in Kelliher, pp. 63-4, and Chernaik, pp. 206-14. It is largely used as the basis for Lord's edition (1968). For comments on the relation of this volume to the canon, see further the Introduction.

Folio, 296 pages; exemplum of the first edition of Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems (London, 1681) with additional MS material, namely: (a) the printed text contains various MS corrections, deletions and emendations (notably on pp. 3-5, 7-11, 14, 19-24, 27-8, 42-3, 46-7, 49, 51-8, 61-70, 72-6, 78, 80, 85, 87-90, 92-3, 95-6, 99-100, 111-14, 132), as well as other crosses, annotations and renumberings; (b) some missing stanzas in seven poems on cancelled (i.e. excised) pages of text are replaced in MS (on pp. 35[-7], 38, 103[-10], 115a-u [115-29], 116a-b [130]); (c) a series of 18 poems in MS (including at least three probably by poets other than Marvell) are bound-in at the end, on pp. 141-285 (those on pp. 272-85 crossed through); the main series of emendations in the printed text and the additional MS pages are in a single hand of c. 1700 except for the lines on p. 269, the second half of On the Monument (When Hodge first spy'd the labour in vain) which are added in another hand to replace the heavily deleted same text on p. 271, and the final poem on pp. 277-85, which is in yet another hand; some annotations and deletions, as well as a series of crosses made subsequently, are in two or three further hands, including notes by the editor captain Edward Thompson (the first dated 1775) on pp. 157, 258; lines by Sir Philip Meadows are added at the foot of p. 63 in a hand resembling that of William Popple the Younger (d. 1772).

This volume, which may originally have been prepared as a collection of Marvell's poems for an intended edition, was evidently used by Edward Thompson in connection with his edition of Marvell in 1766 (see his vol. I, xxxviii et passim, and see further the Introduction for the distinction between this volume and another MS owned by Thompson). It is evident, from details of correspondence, that this is the volume known to have been lent to Thompson by T.J. Matthias, whose wife was a descendant of Marvell's brother-in-law, Edmund Popple, the son of whom was William Popple (1638-1708), Secretary of the Board of Trade; thus it may have been compiled principally by or for William Popple. However, this conjecture cannot at present be proved beyond doubt (see particularly the caveat in Chernaik, pp. 206-7).

Cited in IELM as the Thompson Volume: MaA Δ 1. Described in BLR, 2 (May 1945), 125; in Hugh MacDonald, Andrew Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems, 1681, TLS (13 July 1951), p. 444; and in Margoliouth, I, 233-5.

Facsimiles of select pages of this volume containing MS material are in Miscellaneous Poems, 1681 (1973), and see also Kelliher, p. 65. The various MS corrections and emendations in the printed text are recorded in Margoliouth, but are not given separate entries. The volume has been discussed by all editors since 1776 and also in Kelliher, pp. 63-4, and Chernaik, pp. 206-14. It is largely used as the basis for Lord's edition (1968). For comments on the relation of this volume to the canon, see further the Introduction.

This volume, which may originally have been prepared as a collection of Marvell's poems for an intended edition, was evidently used by Edward Thompson in connection with his edition of Marvell in 1766 (see his vol.

Matthias, whose wife was a descendant of Marvell's brother-in-law, Edmund Popple, the son of whom was William Popple (1638-1708), Secretary of the Board of Trade; thus it may have been compiled principally by or for William Popple. However, this conjecture cannot at present be proved beyond doubt (see particularly the caveat in Chernaik, pp. 206-7).

This volume, which may originally have been prepared as a collection of Marvell's poems for an intended edition, was evidently used by Edward Thompson in connection with his edition of Marvell in 1766 (see his vol. I, xxxviii et passim, and see further the Introduction for the distinction between this volume and another MS owned by Thompson). It is evident, from details of correspondence, that this is the volume known to have been lent to Thompson by T.J. Matthias, whose wife was a descendant of Marvell's brother-in-law, Edmund Popple, the son of whom was William Popple (1638-1708), Secretary of the Board of Trade; thus it may have been compiled principally by or for William Popple. However, this conjecture cannot at present be proved beyond doubt (see particularly the caveat in Chernaik, pp. 206-7).

Cited in IELM as the Thompson Volume: MaA Δ 1. Described in BLR, 2 (May 1945), 125; in Hugh MacDonald, Andrew Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems, 1681, TLS (13 July 1951), p. 444; and in Margoliouth, I, 233-5.

Facsimiles of select pages of this volume containing MS material are in Miscellaneous Poems, 1681 (1973), and see also Kelliher, p. 65. The various MS corrections and emendations in the printed text are recorded in Margoliouth, but are not given separate entries. The volume has been discussed by all editors since 1776 and also in Kelliher, pp. 63-4, and Chernaik, pp. 206-14. It is largely used as the basis for Lord's edition (1968).

This MS collated in Margoliouth (and see I, 415).

Folio, 296 pages; exemplum of the first edition of Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems (London, 1681) with additional MS material, namely: (a) the printed text contains various MS corrections, deletions and emendations (notably on pp. 3-5, 7-11, 14, 19-24, 27-8, 42-3, 46-7, 49, 51-8, 61-70, 72-6, 78, 80, 85, 87-90, 92-3, 95-6, 99-100, 111-14, 132), as well as other crosses, annotations and renumberings; (b) some missing stanzas in seven poems on cancelled (i.e. excised) pages of text are replaced in MS (on pp. 35[-7], 38, 103[-10], 115a-u [115-29], 116a-b [130]); (c) a series of 18 poems in MS (including at least three probably by poets other than Marvell) are bound-in at the end, on pp. 141-285 (those on pp. 272-85 crossed through); the main series of emendations in the printed text and the additional MS pages are in a single hand of c. 1700 except for the lines on p. 269, the second half of On the Monument (When Hodge first spy'd the labour in vain) which are added in another hand to replace the heavily deleted same text on p. 271, and the final poem on pp. 277-85, which is in yet another hand; some annotations and deletions, as well as a series of crosses made subsequently, are in two or three further hands, including notes by the editor captain Edward Thompson (the first dated 1775) on pp. 157, 258; lines by Sir Philip Meadows are added at the foot of p. 63 in a hand resembling that of William Popple the Younger (d. 1772).

This volume, which may originally have been prepared as a collection of Marvell's poems for an intended edition, was evidently used by Edward Thompson in connection with his edition of Marvell in 1766 (see his vol. I, xxxviii et passim, and see further the Introduction for the distinction between this volume and another MS owned by Thompson). It is evident, from details of correspondence, that this is the volume known to have been lent to Thompson by T.J. Matthias, whose wife was a descendant of Marvell's brother-in-law, Edmund Popple, the son of whom was William Popple (1638-1708), Secretary of the Board of Trade; thus it may have been compiled principally by or for William Popple. However, this conjecture cannot at present be proved beyond doubt (see particularly the caveat in Chernaik, pp. 206-7).

Cited in IELM as the Thompson Volume: MaA Δ 1. Described in BLR, 2 (May 1945), 125; in Hugh MacDonald, Andrew Marvell's Miscellaneous Poems, 1681, TLS (13 July 1951), p. 444; and in Margoliouth, I, 233-5.

Facsimiles of select pages of this volume containing MS material are in Miscellaneous Poems, 1681 (1973), and see also Kelliher, p. 65. The various MS corrections and emendations in the printed text are recorded in Margoliouth, but are not given separate entries. The volume has been discussed by all editors since 1776 and also in Kelliher, pp. 63-4, and Chernaik, pp. 206-14. It is largely used as the basis for Lord's edition (1968). For comments on the relation of this volume to the canon, see further the Introduction.
