Written by T. W[right]. Printed for T. Thorpe,? London, 1604, 4to, and ?The Passions of the Minde in generall. By Thomas Wright,? London, 1601, 4to, which reappeared in 1604 ?corrected, enlarged, and with sundry new discourses augmented,? and was reissued in 1621 and 1630. This work was dedicated to Southampton in the hope that he may be ?delivered from inordinate passions,? and had commendatory verses by B. I. [? Ben Jonson]." Dictionary of National Biography. No matter. The work stands, and both Wrights have long been wronged. Without dust jacket (if issued).…
