Note 7 — SOME ACCOUNT OF MIDDLETON AND HIS WORKS.
Reading edition
Mr. Campbell observes, that some verses, which will be afterwards cited, “allude to the poet’s white locks, so that he was probably born as early as the middle of the 16th century.”—Spec. of the Brit. Poets, vol. iii. p. 118. The verses in question I believe to be a forgery of Chetwood.
