Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of George Herbert: In Prose and Verse Although more than two hundred years have elapsed since the death of the pious and excellent George Herbert, yet the present is the only edition in which all his works are to be found. Notwithstanding the popularity of his Temple and Country Parson, no attempt has been hitherto made to collect together all his writings, and to print them in a uniform edition. The biographers of Herbert, as well as the authors of all our bibliographical works of reference, have failed to give a correct list of the productions of his pen; and in preparing this edition, it has been necessary to have recourse to many publications which are now forgotten, and with difficulty to be procured. To the present edition, one oration and a few letters have been added which had not before been discovered. Notwithstanding the care which has been taken to collect all that is known, one letter by Herbert addressed to Bishop Andrewes, written in Greek, has eluded the editor´s search, yet there is little doubt of its existence, and it may hereafter be dis covered in some public or private library.
