Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Seven Champions of Christendom
Just the kind of man to do so. He collected, in this fashion, The Pleasant Conceits of Old Hobson - one of Shakespeare's jest books, a Percy Anecdotes of the period. He did a prose version of Tom Thumb. He wove a Golden Garland of Princely Pleasures and Delicate Delights, being most pleasant songs and sonnets to sundry new tunes now most in use. He was plainly a busy writer, aiming not so much at expressing any ideals he had of life or literature, as at catching the public eye.
