Dear List,
I'm trying to work my way through clerical silences of another sort. Would
anybody working on Adam Loftus, the devilish Archbishop of Dublin, or
Thomas Jones, Bishop of Meath, give me a shout to swap ideas?
([log in to unmask]). I find little on Jones and all I can find on Loftus
(alluded to in the View) is the DNB and a dissertation in German. Also, I'd
be interested to hear the dirt that any Sidneyphiles or others may have on
Nathaniel Baxter, who wrote the *Countess of Pembroke's Ourania* in Wales
but was a churchman in Youghal (entangled with Raleigh's properties) before
that. He's in the DNB and gets a long mention in Edward Hinton's *Ireland
Through Tudor Eyes* but seems to disappear in criticism after that. Am I
correct?
Best wishes, Thomas Herron

O spirit of Love, how quicke and fresh art thou,
That notwithstanding thy capacity,
Receiveth as the Sea. Nought enters there
Of what validity, and pitch so ere,
But falles into abatement, and low price,
Even in a minute; so full of shapes is fancy,
That it alone is high fantasticall.
