Introduction: The First Sustained Example of Men and Women Writing Together in the English Tradition[edit] Overview[edit] Despite growing scholarly interest in the Devonshire Manuscript (BL MS Add. 17492), a verse miscellany belonging to the 1530s and early 1540s,[1] there have been no authoritative critical editions published to date.[2] Earlier scholarship privileged the Devonshire Manuscript (conventionally referred to as sigil D in most scholarly apparatus) in relation to the canon of Sir Thomas Wyatt, since 129 of the 185 items of verse (complete poems and fragments) contained in the miscellany have been attributed to him.

Naye, Syr, quod I ... marvel nothinge hereat: for this punyshement of theves passeth the limites of justice, and is also very hurtefull to the weale publique.3 For it is to extreame and cruel a punishment for thefte, and yet not sufficient to refrayne and withhold men from thefte.

Yes (quod he) this matter is wel ynough provided for already. Naye, by saynt Mary, sir (quod the lawier) not so.

Anthology of English Literature. Shakespeare texts. Etext Center: Collections. University of Virginia Library > Our Organization > The Electronic Text Center The Electronic Text Center (1992-2007), known to many as “Etext,” served the University community’s teaching and research needs in the areas of humanities text encoding for fifteen years.

Etext Center: Collections

Many of the resources once available on Etext are now available via VIRGO, the Library’s online catalog and the primary access point for all U.Va. Library digital texts and images. In the course of migrating thousands of texts from Etext to VIRGO, we determined that certain resources were not eligible for inclusion, most often due to copyright issues. Many of the texts that were not migrated can be found among other university online text collections, Google Books, HathiTrust and Project Gutenberg. If you have questions about the location of older resources, please send your inquiry to Virgo Feedback.
