In most of the editions of Shakespeare subsequent to the appearance of Malone’s ‘Supplement’ The Passionate Pilgrim has been accorded an independent place at the end of the poems.\n\n## V\n\nThe Passionate Pilgrim reached three editions. Of the second no copy is known, and of the first and third only two in each instance are traceable. Of these four copies, two are in public libraries and two are in private hands. All are in England.\n\nThe first edition was issued in very small octavo. The signatures run A–D 8 in eights. Only A, A 3, A 4, B, B 3, C, D are noted. The leaves number thirty-two. There is no pagination. The first leaf, in the middle of which appears the signature A, and the last leaf, which is unsigned, are blank. A curious feature of the book is the circumstance that of the twenty-eight leaves which contain the text, twenty-five bear type on one side—the front side—only. The three concluding leaves, D 5, D 6, D 7, alone have type on both sides. On C 3 appears a second title:—SONNETS | To sundry notes of Musicke. | AT LONDON | Printed for W. Jaggard, and are | to be sold by W. Leake, at the Grey-hound in Paules Churchyard. | 1599. | As in many other small books of poetry of the period, each page of print has two linear ornaments—one above and another below the type.\n\nOf the two extant copies of the first edition of 1599, one is in the Capell collection at Trinity College, Cambridge, and the other in the Christie Miller Library at Britwell.\n\nThe Capell copy measures $4\\frac{3}{4}'' \\times 3\\frac{3}{4}''$. Its state is somewhat dirty, and the date on the second title-page has been\n\nNo. I.\nThe Capell copy, 1599.\n\n<!-- [Page 343](arke:01KG6QFYFQCY1C5Z7WZAR2GSYF) -->\n54\nTHE PASSIONATE PILGRIM\n\nFIRST EDITION, 1599.\n\ncut off by the binder. With it is bound up the 1620 edition of *Venus and Adonis*, which it follows. There is an old MS. note at the end of the book running, ‘Not quite perfect, see 4 or 5 leaves back: so it cost me but 3 Halfpence.’ This copy, which once belonged to ‘Honest Tom Martin’ of Palgrave, the historian of Thetford (1697–1771), has his autograph signature. It was reproduced in photo-lithography in 1883 in the Shakspere-Quarto facsimiles, No. 10, with an introduction by Professor Dowden.\n\nNo. II.\nThe Britwell copy, 1599.\n\nThe Britwell copy was purchased in 1895 by Mr. Wakefield Christie Miller (died three years later) from Sir Charles Isham, Bart., of Lamport Hall, Northamptonshire. This copy was discovered by Mr. Charles Edmonds in an upper lumber-room at Lamport Hall in September, 1867. It is bound in a vellum cover, probably of contemporary date, between two other poetical tracts, viz.:—William Leake’s 1599 edition of *Venus and Adonis*, of which no other copy is known, and an undated edition of *The Epigrammes and Elegies by I. D. and C. M.* (i.e. Sir John Davies and Christopher Marlowe). This copy measures $4\\frac{3}{4}'' \\times 3\\frac{3}{4}''$ and is in very clean condition. It is here reproduced in photographic facsimile for the first time by kind permission of Mrs. Christie Miller. A typed reproduction edited by Mr. Charles Edmonds was published in a limited edition of 131 copies, together with the two tracts with which it is bound up, in 1870.\n\nTHIRD EDITION, 1612.\n\nThe third edition is enlarged to sixty-four leaves by the unwarranted addition of Heywood’s rendering of two of Ovid’s Epistles. The title runs:—**THE | PASSIONATE | PILGRIME**, | or | *Certaine Amorous Sonnets*, | *betweene Venus and Adonis*, | *newly corrected and aug-|mented*. | *By W. Shakespere*. | The third Edition. | Whereunto is newly ad-|ded two Loue-Epistles, the first | from *Paris* to *Hellen*, and *Hellens* answere backe againe to *Paris*. | Printed by W. Iaggard. 1612.\n\nThe text of *The Passionate Pilgrim* was set up again with small alteration. Rather more italic type was used in the new composition. The signatures of the enlarged volume ran from A–H 8 in eights. The first and last leaves were blank,\n","title":"Chunk 32"},"relationships":[{"peer":"01KG6S4FQ9B05TDSVW2G3VD6WR","peer_type":"chapter","predicate":"in"},{"peer":"01KG6S2X2EBB305ENM00G16GWA","peer_type":"file","predicate":"extractedFrom"},{"peer":"01KG6NWQ2H2K4PGG7H4ZHYCZ3Y","peer_type":"collection","predicate":"collection"},{"peer":"01KG6S6WX3QX9Y6FANP9Y98TCY","peer_type":"chunk","predicate":"prev"},{"peer":"01KG6S6WX4K1Y6SDFSBVS8X87F","peer_type":"chunk","predicate":"next"}],"ver":2,"created_at":"2026-01-30T06:24:53.156Z","ts":"2026-01-30T06:24:57.840Z","edited_by":{"method":"manual","user_id":"01KFF0H3YRP9ZSM033AM0QJ47H"}}
