Excerpt from Indexes to the First Lines and to the Subjects of the Poems of Robert Herrick
First Lines was in proof and the whole of that labor was lost in the fire with, also, much of the manuscript of the Index of Subjects. The work had practically to be recommenced, and when it is remembered that the time that can be bestowed on such work as this is very limited, it is hoped that the delay which has been so unavoidably incurred will be excused.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides readers with an indispensable resource for deciphering the first lines of poems written by Robert Herrick. It is an expansion on the 50-page index of first lines and subject index found within his 1856 publication of 'British Poets' by Little, Brown, and Company. Frustrated by the time it took to search for poems recalled only by their opening lines, Richard E. Wilson, a member of the Free Library of Philadelphia staff, took it upon himself to expand on the work. This comprehensive index allows readers to find the poem they are searching for in a matter of seconds. This book is a valuable companion to Herrick's poetry, making it more accessible to scholars, students, and casual readers alike.
