[This MS. was formerly in the Dering Collection, and is partly in the autograph of Sir James Tyrrell, the Whig Historian of England (born in 1642). There are Basse's famous lines "Vpon poet Shakespeare," beginning nowned Spencer lye a thought more nigh"; pieces on Prince Henry and Arabella Stuart, and the famous "Under

"Re

neath this marble hearse" (verses on the death of the Countess of Pembroke, the mother of Shakespeare's patrons, which are ascribed to Ben Jonson); some pieces signed by W. S., one signed J. M., Corbet's Northern Voyage, Ben Jonson to King James, and his "Drink to me only," upon the death of Beaumont the dramatist; and a large quantity of pieces by Corbet, King and others. It is well known that Basse's verses were first printed in Donne's Poems, 1633, afterwards in Shakespeare's Poems, 1640, and in one or two subsequent publications. Copies, too, exist in manuscript, two of which are printed in Shakespeare's Centurie of Prayse. The Tyrrell Manuscript differs somewhat from all the versions, either printed or manuscript, which can be traced. Basse's lines are here transcribed, and the variations from the Donne copy are italicised. Students can themselves compare the Tyrrell version with the others which are recorded.

VPON POET SHAKESPEARE.

"Renowned Spencer lye a thought more nigh
To learned Chaucer, and rare Beaumont lye
A little neerer Spencer, to make roome

For Shakespeare in your threefold fourefold Tombe.
To lodge all foure in one bed make a shift

Untill Doomesday, for hardly will a fift

Betwixt this day and that by Fate bee slaine,

For whom the Curtaine may bee drawne againe.
If your precedency in death doe barr

A fourth place in your sacred Sepulchre
Under this carved Marble of thine owne,

Sleepe brave tragedian Shakespeare, sleepe alone,

Thy unmolested peace, unshared cave

Possese as Lord, not Tenaunt of thy grave,

[These two lines are omitted in Donne.]

That unto others, or us it may bee

Honour hereafter to bee laid by thee."
