ABOUT THE AUTHOR: "William Fleetwood, (1656-1723), was an English preacher, Bishop of St. Asaph and Bishop of Ely, remembered by economists and statisticians for constructing a price index in his Chronicon Preciosum of 1707. He received his education at Eton and at King's College, Cambridge. Fleetwood was regarded as the best preacher of his time. He was accurate in learning, and effective in delivery, and his character stood deservedly high in general estimation. In episcopal administration he far excelled most of his contemporaries. He was a zealous Hanoverian, and a favourite with Queen Anne in spite of his Whiggism." (Wikipedia).

Almost certainly 1st Edition, as published in London: Printed by M[iles] F[lesher] for Iohn Marriot, 1633. Bound with Juvenilia, or certaine paradoxes and problemes. London: Printed by E[lizabeth] P[urslowe] for Henry Seyle, 1633. Quarto (7 5/16", 5 3/16", 186mm x 133mm). Contemporary binding, embossed panelled leather, scratched and worn, heavily bumped and rubbed to corners.

Title page MISSING; the book starts at A1, "The printer to the understanders". Decorated capitals.

Woodcut printer's device to title page of Paradoxes and Problems, woodcut head- and tailpieces and initial letters throughout.

This is the first chief collection of Donne's poetry, much of which was either unpublished or circulated privately (often in manuscript) while he lived. After his death in 1631, the publication of his poems did a little to elevate his stature in the English pantheon, although it would be many decades before the fame which his work now enjoys was fully established. "The text of this first edition of Donne's collected Poems does not appear to have been derived from any single source. Grierson and later editors, notably Gardner and Milgate, believe that the original compiler used two sources belonging to the two main groups of surviving manuscripts, but made changes on his own authority and by reference to yet other manuscripts. The resulting text has more authority than any other in print" (Keynes). RightWayUp Books aims to provide accurate and detailed descriptions.

Hardcover. Etat : Near fine. First. First editions, first state. London: Printed by M[iles] F[lesher] for Iohn Marriot, 1633 (Poems); London: Printed by E[lizabeth] P[urslowe] for Henry Seyle, 1633. Quarto (7 5/16", 5 3/16", 186mm x 133mm). [Full collation available.] Complete with all blanks. Bound in later (XIXc?) brown calf, with a triple blind gilt fillet border surrounding a blind roll on the boards. On the spine, four raised bands with a blind roll. Blind ornaments in the panels.

All edges of the text-block red. Presented in a brown calf solander box by Riviere & Son. Front board starting at the upper edge. Some rubbing at the extremities. Very good margins (20mm and more), and a very little foxing. With a XIXc armorial bookplate of Smith of Exeter (sable, a fess cotised between three martlets or; crest: a greyhound sejant collared) on the front paste-down. On A1r of the Poems an ownership inscription of Gilberd Spencer in a XVIIc hand. On the upper edge of the title-page of the Poems an ownership inscription of Ric[hard] Shuttleworth in an XVIIIc hand. Passim, but especially pp. 326-352 of the Poems (satyres and letters), substantial marginal commentary and emendation in a XVIIc hand. This is the chief collection of Donne's poetry, much of which was either unpublished or circulated privately (often in manuscript) while he lived. After his death in 1631, the publication of his poems (as well as the first appearance of several elegies written by Izaak Walton and others) did a little to elevate his stature in the English pantheon. It would not be till the end of the seventeenth and into the eighteenth century that he would be given the place of esteem he now holds among English poets. The first edition is quite rare, and even rarer still is the first state of the Poems, with N1r altered to omit the headline to accommodate the thirty-five lines of verse. There is an additional leaf sometimes inserted in the first gathering apparently a later addition that is not present. The rarity and importance of the work is augmented in the present copy by its rich set of provenance and annotations. In reverse, the engraved armorial bookplate of the Smith family of Exeter cannot be placed exactly but appears to be late XVIIIc or early XIXc in its style. The Shuttleworth of the title-page (an ink-splotch obscures whether he is Ric[hard] or Rev[erend] Shuttleworth) has indicated his college; Alumni Oxonienses records only one Shuttleworth at Lincoln, Richard Shuttleworth of Durham, matriculated 1749 at the age of 17 and died in 1797. Mr. Shuttleworth seems to have given the surname of the author on the title-page. The earliest marks of ownership (on the basis of the hand) seem to be those of Gilberd (Gilbert) Spencer on the initial blank, who writes the following ditty: "Liber est meus/ Testus [sic] est Deus" (the book is mine, God is the witness (or, in better verse, the proof divine)). The hand is certainly rather more florid than that of the annotator, and may well be earlier, but it is an appealing connection. A lengthy reminiscence about the Drury family and Lord Theophilus Walden "At Padoa in Italy some 45 years agoe" (p. 351) places the annotation in the 1640's or 1650's, since Lord Walden was abroad in Italy 1603-1605. This is all against a letter to Hen. Goodeere, and the annotator writes above "My Lady Nethersole's father." The familiarity with the movements of these intimates of Donne's suggests that the annotator was himself at least at the periphery of Donne's circle. The emendations, which are quite subtle and sound, also suggest that he had access to manuscript versions of the poems. In all, a volume redolent of Donne.
