Excerpt from University of Washington Publications, Language and Literature, October, 1920, Vol. 1: The Poems of Henry Howard, Earl of SurreyI acknowledge with much gratitude my indebtedness to Miss Gladys D. Willcock of the Royal Holloway College, a new scholar in the English field, who very kindly furnished me with the proof sheets of her collation of the variants in the 1554 edition of the fourth book of the Eneid, this expediting the com pletion of the notes. I would also express my obligations, both longstanding and recent, to John A. Herbert, Esquire, of the British Museum, who placed in my hands the principal manuscript of Surrey's lyrics just after its purchase by the Museum in 1905, and who has more recently secured for me rotographs of rare manuscripts and books. To the Harvard Library I am indebted for the loan of the works of Gawin Douglas. Finally, I wish to recognize the many helpful suggestions of my colleague, Professor Vernon L. Parrington, and to thank my secretary, Mrs. Lois J. Wentworth, for assistance in revising the proofs.With this volume the University inaugurates a new series of publications, which we hope will contribute to the advancement of scholarship in the field of letters.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
