THE CAMBRIDGE HISTORY
OF ENGLISH LITERATURE
VOLUME III. RENASCENCE AND REFORMATION
Second Impression, 1918, Corrections and Additions
The errata mentioned in volumes of the History published later than the first
edition of this volume have been corrected in the present impression. In addition,
some misprints noticed later have been corrected, and a few alterations made. A list
of the more important of these follows:

In the dedication of The Droomme of Doomesday, Gascoigne wrote (2 May 1576) that
he was 'in weake plight for health as your good L. well knoweth,' and he was unable,
through illness, to correct the proofs. He was again ill for some months before his
death on 7 October 1577. . But, between these two illnesses he evidently recovered
sufficiently to be sent on a mission from the privy council to the English merchant
adventurers in Antwerp. He wrote to the lord treasurer from Paris on his way on
15 September 1576 and again on 7 October, and in November he received twenty
pounds for bringinge of Letters in for her Majesties affaires frome Andwarpe to
Hampton Court. In the same montb, his printer issued anonymously, although
seene and allowed,' The Spoyle of Antwerp Faithfully reported by a true Englishman,
who was present at the same. Recent events in Belgium lend the pamphlet a special
interest, but, apart from these painful associations, it is a craftsmanlike piece of
reporting, giving Gascoigne an additional claim to our attention as the first English
war correspondent. His authorship of the pamphlet, which was for a long time held
doubtful, was recently established beyond question by a comparison of the signatures
of the letters preserved in the Record office with that of George Gascoigne in the
manuscript of Hemetes the heremyte; they are undoubtedly identical1.

Register on 13 May. But on the same date the court of Stationers ordered the

it was taken in hand in the early or late summer. Two of Penry's tracts also, in all
probability, belong to the same period. These were a second edition of An E. chortation,
and a new tract entitled A Defence of that which hath been written, which was a reply
to Dr Some, who had published an answer to the first edition of An Exhortation.
The second edition of the last-named tract, of which there are two distinct issues
extant? , was almost certainly published late in May or early in June, and a close
examination of its lettering and workmanship, together with hints let fall by those
examined by the authorities in their investigation of the affair support the belief that
it was printed by Waldegrave on a press and secreted at Kingston-on-Thames, in which
town Udall was a resident preacher.
