The Poems of John Dryden: Volume Five
This volume completes the five-volume Longman Annotated Poets Edition of the poems of John Dryden, the major poet of Restoration England. It provides a modernized text along with full explanatory annotation. The poems include Dryden's spirited translation from Ovid, Homer, Chaucer, and Boccaccio. This volume presents, in newly-edited texts and with a substantial editorial commentary, the complete non-dramatic poetry of John Drydenas later years. It contains the full text of Drydenas final collection, Fables Ancient and Modern, including its prose Dedication and Preface, together with a number of other poems of the late 1690s, and some posthumously published items.On thatsad thought she rests]D.Als expansion. 143. prepares to chokeherbreath] Cp. ... 191. my child] D.Als addition. 193.
