Excerpt from An Introduction to Michael Drayton
Drayton's constant changes of his text have been, though but slightly, dealt with in appendices. Study of his talent is sometimes embarrassed by the great number of editions issued in his lifetime, and often embodying his revisions. To throw some light on this matter an attempt at a Bibliography has been added. R. L. Graves, Esq, of the British Museum, has much increased its value by copying titles of several original editions (not in the Museum) from the library of Britwell Court, with the kind approval of the owner, Mr. Christie Miller.
