Pastorals (Philips)

{{header | title     = Pastorals | author    = Ambrose Philips | translator = | section   = | previous  = | next      = | year      = 1710 | notes     = Four of Philips' pastorals first appeared in Fenton's Oxford and Cambridge Miscellany Poems (n.d., published January 1707/8) and all six in ''Poetical Miscellanies. The Sixth Part'' (1708) published by Jacob Tonson. Hills reprinted Tonson's text in 1710, in a twelve-leaf pamphlet, of which this is a transcription. Hills' edition was re-set at least three times in 1710, with differences in the title-page, in signatures and in ornament. [Based on The Poems of Ambrose Philips (1969} p. liv. edited by Mary G. Segar ] .}}
