The three other sonnets on the theme of Venus and Adonis in *The Passionate Pilgrim* have a strong family resemblance to that attributable to Griffin, and may well have been similar experiments of his Muse, which were withheld from the printer and circulated only in private.\n\nGriffin is one of three contemporary poets whom Jaggard may be safely convicted of robbing. He was wise in laying somewhat heavier hands on the work of Richard Barnfield, whose lyric gift was more pleasing than Griffin’s. There is no question that two of Jaggard’s pieces—No. VIII, the sonnet beginning ‘If Musicke and sweet Poetrie agree’, and No. XX, the seven-syllable riming couplets at the extreme end of the volume, beginning ‘As it fell upon a day’—were from Barnfield’s pen. Both were published in 1598 in a poetical tract entitled *Poems: in diuers humours*, which formed the fourth section of a volume bearing the preliminary title, *‘The Encomion of Lady Pecunia, or the Praise of Money, by Richard Barnfield, Graduate in Oxford.’* The whole book was published by William Jaggard’s brother John, at the Hand and Star in Fleet Street, and there is ground for believing that Jaggard, with his brother’s connivance, borrowed in this instance from a printed text.\n\n‘Poems in diuers humours’ was the last of the four parts of the ‘Encomion’ and had, like each of the three preceding parts, a separate title-page. It was prefaced by a dedication in three couplets to the author’s friend ‘Maister Nicholas Blackleech of Grayes Inne’. There the writer described the poems which followed as ‘fruits of unriper years’. Barnfield’s claim to authorship of the ‘Poems in diuers humours’ cannot be justly questioned.\n\nThe opening piece in Barnfield’s tract is headed ‘Sonnet I.\n\nNos. VIII, XVII, and XX: Contributions of Richard Barnfield.\nBarnfield’s *Poems in diuers humours*, 1598.","text_extracted_at":"2026-01-30T06:16:34.862Z","text_extracted_by":"ocr-service","text_has_content":true,"text_images_count":0,"text_source":"ocr","uploaded":true,"width":1750},"relationships":[{"peer":"01KG6Q7Q25RHMFT3SJXPV18VFF","predicate":"derived_from"},{"peer":"01KG6NWQ2H2K4PGG7H4ZHYCZ3Y","peer_type":"collection","predicate":"collection"},{"peer":"01KG6QFYF49Y3B6D232EBS3HP6","predicate":"prev"},{"peer":"01KG6QFYF4DS7FXX6Y67R8PBZ5","predicate":"next"},{"peer":"01KG6R3HBSWA6HAW9PXZCGXH2Z","peer_label":"06_poems_pericles_facsimiles_1905_oxford_page_0318_medium.jpg","peer_type":"file","predicate":"has_derivative"},{"peer":"01KG6R3KWGYMW7G8513N4FPF25","peer_label":"06_poems_pericles_facsimiles_1905_oxford_page_0318_thumb.jpg","peer_type":"file","predicate":"has_derivative"},{"peer":"01KG6S2X2EBB305ENM00G16GWA","predicate":"has_assembly"}],"ver":7,"created_at":"2026-01-30T05:54:52.528Z","ts":"2026-01-30T06:22:49.486Z","edited_by":{"method":"manual","user_id":"01KFFC4A8W8939TXGEXCK439ZK"}}
