Notes:

The maid's tragedy altered is only a fragment, probably intended by Waller to form a new act V for Beaumont and Fletcher's tragedy. "Not before printed in the several editions of his poems." "Most of the following pieces, being unfinish'd, were never intended to be publish'd; but that a person, who had borrowed a manuscript copy of them, took upon him to print them. The copy from which they were printed, was very imperfect: and there being noe means left to suppress them, it was thought fit to suffer them to be more correctly printed from the last and truest copies."--Prefatory note. Errata: p. 100.

Contents:

The maids tragedy, alter'd -- Poems upon several occasions -- Mr. Waller's speech to the House of Commons, April 22, 1640 -- Mr. Waller's speech, July 6, 1641.
