A propos de cet article

The two works by Fracnis Quarles bound together, in much later (late 19th century) half- calf over brown pebbled cloth boards, with a piece lacking at the spine; with morocco labels; [iv], 129 pages; [vi], 62, [63, 64] pages; neither works has frontispiece (engraved additional title).~~It should be noted that the Address to the Reader in The Shepheards Oracle though signed John Marriot (the printer) but is sometimes attributed to Isaak Walton.~~The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography tells us that the first poems â deals with autobiographical, political, and religious matters under the thin guise of pastoral allegory . [and that] an Arminian "Master Shepheard" who is severely criticized must be Archbishop Laud."~~. Very Good binding.
