General notes
Edited by Robert Randolph, who signs the first introductory verse In verse With an additional engraved title page with "Printed Oxford for Francis Bowman. 1652." in imprint. This title page was prepared for the second edition of Randolph's Poems (1640) and the edition statement and date were altered for use in subsequent editions, though place of publication and publisher's name were never changed (Madan, III, 2672) The words "Muses ... Arystippus." are bracketed together on title page "The muses looking-glasse", "Amyntas", and "Aristippus" each have separate dated title page; register is continuous and pagination is separate for these three works. "The jealous lovers" has separate dated title page (²P8r). It begins new register with the dedication to Mr. Dr. Comber; it begins new pagination on ³A7r. Neither of these editions of "The muses looking-glasse" or "The jealous lovers" was issued separately Leaf ²P7 is blank Numerous errors in pagination
