ABSTRACT
Date and publication. Printed in 1693 in EP (the volume probably appeared towards the end of July); not reprinted in D.’s lifetime. The translation had possibly already been composed by November 1692, when Tonson asked for some extra items for inclusion in the forthcoming EP (see headnote to ‘Dedication to Examen Poeticum’; David Hopkins, RES xxxix (1988) 70–1).
