Excerpt from The Works in Verse and Prose Complete of the Right Honourable Fulke Greville, Lord Brooke, Vol. 1 of 4: For the First Time Collected and Edited; With Memorial-Introduction; Essay, Critical and Elucidatory; And Notes Sidney. Thus would he eternize their friendship and reveal the influences under which his own Writings were composed. Sir Philip cordially reciprocated Lord Brooke's pathetic boast. Witness, among many other proofs, his Verses in celebration of the triple-friendship be tween himself, greville and dyer. The well worded Poem will be found in our Appendix. [a.] The somewhat bombastic titie-page of the orig inal(posthumous) edition (1652) of the Life, raised too high expectation, and since, has made readers feel disappointed. Taken for What its Author intended, viz., his contribution from per sonal knowledge, to an ultimate Life of Sidney, it will be pronounced most valuable by all compe tent to form an estimate, although the historical student must turn elsewhere for fuller details and larger discussions of the facts and principles of the short and lovely life. These have been amp ly though not exhanstively furnished in the various books and memoirs named and used by us [vol I. Pp xxx-xx, XXIV, at alibi] It were to misunderstand my duty as an Editor to seek to so supplement this (mis-named) Life as to pre sent in full and under recent lights and shadows the beautiful and imperishable story. But while disclaiming this, I have been enabled to furnish a text infinitely superior to the original one of 1652.
