Excerpt from Steps to the Temple Delights of the Muses: And Other Poems This edition contains the whole of Crashaw's Poems, English and Latin, now for the first time collected in one volume. Although not 'English Classics, ' it has been thought best to include Crashaw's Latin and Greek poems, for completeness' sake. These are reproduced faithfully from the original issues printed at the Cambridge University Press in 1634 and 1670 and from photographs of the Sancroft MS. No attempt has been made to "improve" Crashaw's spelling or punctuation save in the one ore two trifling instances mentioned in the notes, and save in the use of the modern type-forms for j, s, u, m, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
