Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Sir William Alexander, Vol. 3 of 3: Earl of Stirling See vol. i., Memoir, page xiii., for some particulars regarding this very remarkable poem. The first edition was issued at Edinburgh in 1614. The title page is as follows:- "Doomes-day; or, the Great Day of the Lords Ivdgement, by Sr. William Alexander, Knight. Printed by Andro Hart, and are to be solde at his shop on the north side of the high Street, a litle beneath the Crosse. Anno Dom. 1614." 4 to. Mr. W. Carew Hazlitt, in his Handbook to the Popular Poetical and Dramatic Literature of Great Britain, London, 1867, mentions an edition in quarto, published at London in the same year, which, in all probability, would be the same as the above, with a London imprint; the only other edition, however, that the present editor has seen, is that included in 77 i Recreations with the Muses, 1637. The Edinburgh edition of 1614 contains only the first four hours; the alterations made in that portion in the copy published in 1637 (which is here reprinted) were not considered worth notice, as, although considerable, they are generally only verbal.
