Sidney and Dyer, began to write in the 1580s and whose Workes (1633) were published posthumously in the same year as Donnes. Two important verse treatises excluded from that collection were issued as The Remains (1670). A Treatise of Religion had been suppressed in 1633, its omission accounting for the twenty-two missing pages in the Workes. There had apparently been no plan to include A Treatise of Monarchy; even in 1681 it was to strike Richard Baxter as presenting doctrines 'which I greatly wonder this Age would bear. These Treatises have been available only in Southeys British Poets (1831) and in Grosarts Fuller Worthies Library (1870), both deriving from the inaccurate 1670 edition. The present text is the first to be based on the Warwick MSS. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.…
