Excerpt from Shakespeare's Library, Vol. 4: A Collection of the Plays, Romances, Novels, Poems and Histories Employed by Shakespeare in the Composition of His Works

The Description of John Gower may be extracted in Farther Particulars regarding Shake speare and his Works, p. 35. Both are curious, as they were probably derived from some then existing painting or illumination, not now known. In the course of the tract Greene acknowledges various works, but be especially repudiates The Cobbler of Canterbury, which had been falsely attributed to him. He speaks of his Never too Late, printed in 1590, and Of his Mourning Garment, as if it were then in the press; but according to Mr Dyce it had been printed two years before. Greene's Repentance, the title of which is also introduced, bears date in 1592. Chaucer and Gower discuss the merits and vices of Greene's productions, and King Solomon is called in as an umpire, who exhorts Greene to abandon folly and to seek wisdom.
