The text of this pamphlet is that of the first edition, collated with, those given by Faulkner, Hawkesworth, the "Miscellanies" of 1745, and Scott. It was originally published in 1713. By GREGORY MISOSARVM. Spargere voces In vulgum ambiguas; & quaerere confcius arma. The Second Edition LONDON: Printed for John Morphew, near Stationers Hall. 1713. Price 6d.
Numerous instances of the combination of several trades are to be found in the records of every town, as for instance the "company of goldsmiths and smiths and others their brethren," at Hull in 1598, which consisted of goldsmiths, smiths, pewterers, plumbers and glaziers, painters, cutlers, musicians, stationers and bookbinders, and basket-makers.
In the case of existing books, there was to be but one term viz., twenty-one years, from August 10, 1710. Registration at the Stationers' Company was still required, but nothing was said as to who might make the entries, or into whose names they were to be made. Then followed the desired penalties for infringement.
The Mayor and the Stationers still not responding, the order was repeated more peremptorily on Saturday, Dec. 28, one-and-twenty Peers being present. Milton." Here was an extremely clever trick of Messrs. Parker and Whittaker! They were themselves in trouble for not being good detectives: what if they diverted the attention of the Peers, while they were in this angry mood, upon other objects?
On that day, two-and-twenty Peers being present, and nothing having been farther reported either by the Lord Mayor or the Stationers, it was ordered "that the Lord Mayor of London and the Printers be sent to, to give an account of the scandalous paper printed and dispersed, what they have done in discovering the Author, Printer, and Publisher."
The combined booksellers' and stationers' shops in the cities of the United States are in themselves more frequent and more attractive than in England: and I am going back to the days before the drug-store library which is as yet too recent an institution to have had an easily measurable influence.
He was the most self-contained and secret of men; he detected mysterious meanings in every the smallest event of life; and as he divulged none of his discoveries, and only pointed vaguely and dimly to the consequences, he got credit for the correctness of his unuttered predictions as completely as though he had registered his prophecies as copyright at Stationers' Hall.
Brown was able to come out into the sitting-room was the very day on which Brown, Jones, and Robinson were declared bankrupts. Craddock and Giles, the stationers of St. Mary Axe, held bills of theirs, as to which they would not, or probably could not, wait; and the City and West End Commercial and Agricultural Joint-Stock Bank refused to make any further advances.
There is contemporary evidence to this effect in the Stationers' Register of 1602 in the title there given The Revenge of Hamlet. There was an old English tragedy on the subject of Hamlet which was in existence at least as early as the year 1589, in the representation of which an exclamation of the Ghost "Hamlet, revenge!" was a striking and well-remembered feature.
"To Mr. Henry Lawes on his Airs." For biographical purposes it is well to remember the first title and the dating. In the Stationers' Registers there is this entry: "Nov. 16, 1647, Rich. Woodnoth entered for his copy under the hands of Mr. Downham and Mr. Bellamy, warden, a book called 'Compositions of Three Parts, by Henry and William Lawes, servants to his Majesty."
