The Book of Restoration Verse: Chosen and Edited with Notes (Classic Reprint)Fb&c Limited, 20. okt 2017 - 896 pages Excerpt from The Book of Restoration Verse: Chosen and Edited With Notes I have included here a selection of the popular ballads. Many of these ballads were first circulated as broadsides during the seventeenth century: and since the first ballad collection was made early in the eighteenth century, it seemed to me that, in a scheme such as I have followed in these series of anthologies (see Preface to The Book of Georgian Verse), they could not be inserted in any better place.
