| dc.description.abstract | Verse - "Till from Leghorn I do return,". Publication date conjectured by Wing. The sheet includes another ballad, a response to the first one; the title reads: Vertue the reward of constancy; or, Mrs. Mary Foart's love-letter and answer to her dear heart John Blay at Leghorn:. Both ballads are signed, the first: John Bay [sic].; the second: Mary Fort [sic]. Names are probably fictional. The two ballads printed in columns with woodcuts at head of each text. Reproduction of the original in the Bodleian Library. |
