ABSTRACT
Many of the acknowledgements made in Volume I apply also to this also. In particular I wish to thank the Librarian and Trustees of the Folger Library, Washington, D.C., for permission to use the text of their copy of the 1590 edition of Thomas Lodge's Rosalynde. This copy being incomplete, lacking Sheet R, the gap has been supplied from the unique copy in the Carl H. Pforzheimer Library, and I am grateful to the authorities of that fine collection for permission to print (pp. 248-54) from the facsimile in their catalogue: The Carl H. Pforzheimer Library: English Literature 1475-1700, N.Y. 1940, Vol. I I , Item 619, pp. 639-41, and Plates, XVI I I . The Council of the Malone Society has allowed me to use its reprint of Fidele and Fortunio, The Two Italian Gentlemen (1909 and 1933), and I thank the directors of the Newman Press, Westminster, Md., U.S.A. for letting me print from Dr J . J . Jepson's translation of St Augustine's De Sermone Domini in Monte Secundum Matthaeum (1948). The librarians of the British Museum, of King's College and the Goldsmith's Library, University of London, and of Edinburgh University have made possible much necessary reading and copying. I thank Mr John Crow for the loan of books and photostats; Mr F. M. Guercio for help with obsolete Italian words when translating Gl'Ingannati; Miss Rosemary Jackson for her careful typing and ability to read some bad handwriting; and my wife for making the Index.
