Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Poems, Plays and Other Remains of Sir John Suckling, Vol. 1: With a Copious Account of the Author, Notes, and an Appendix of Illustrative Pieces
W. W. Observes Suckling was among the few who read Shakespeare in that age; of all poets he seems to have been his favourite. He not only imitated him in his writings, but praised and quoted him in all the polished circles of the day, of which he was a distinguished ornament. The exertions of Suckling to make Shakespeare popular have hitherto escaped the notice of the editors and biographers of that poet.
