## Overview
This section, titled "SEVENTH EDITION, 1632," describes the 1632 edition of William Shakespeare's "The Rape of Lucrece." It details the number of extant copies, their locations, and the full title-page inscription. This section was extracted from lines 4011 to 4014 of its source file.
## Context
This section is part of [Chapter III](arke:01KG6S4EM1AKPD5T35XS8GTZ8A) within a larger work, likely a critical or bibliographical study of Shakespeare's poetry. It was extracted from the text file [pdf-01KG6Q7Q25RHMFT3SJXPV18VFF.txt](arke:01KG6S2X2EBB305ENM00G16GWA), which is part of the [PDF Workflow Main Test 2026-01-30T00:26:53](arke:01KG6NWQ2H2K4PGG7H4ZHYCZ3Y) collection. It follows a previous section also titled [SEVENTH EDITION, 1632.](arke:01KG6S5KFN80E23YYE5F7CE2CT) and precedes the section [No. XXVI. Corpus Christi College, Oxford.](arke:01KG6S5M2M64T2FWTGJBDTPQQ2), which likely details one of the mentioned copies.
## Contents
The section identifies five extant copies of the 1632 edition of "The Rape of Lucrece," located at Corpus Christi College, Oxford; Mrs. Christie Miller's library at Britwell; Edinburgh University Library (defective); Mr. Perry’s library at Providence, America; and one in unknown hands. It provides the complete transcription of the title-page: "The | Rape | of | Lucrece | by | Mr. William Shakespeare | Newly revised. [Printer’s device with motto Dum spero fero.] London. | Printed by R. B. for Iohn Harrison and | are to be sold at his shop at the golden | Vnicorne in Pater-noster Row. | 1632." It also notes that the bookseller Lintott included a 1632-dated title-page of Lucrece in one of his 1710 editions of Shakespeare’s Poems.

- SEVENTH EDITION, 1632
There are five extant copies of the edition of 1632—one at Corpus Christi College, Oxford; another in the library of Mrs. Christie Miller at Britwell; a third in unknown hands; the fourth (defective) at Edinburgh University Library; and the fifth in America, in Mr. Perry’s library at Providence. The title-page runs:—The | Rape | of | Lucrece | by | Mr. William Shakespeare | Newly revised. [Printer’s device with motto Dum spero fero.] London. | Printed by R. B. for Iohn Harrison and | are to be sold at his shop at the golden | Vnicorne in Pater-noster Row. | 1632. | In one of the impressions of the edition of Shakespeare’s Poems issued by the bookseller Lintott in 1710, he gives a title-page of Lucrece bearing the date 1632. A copy of that edition was doubtless in his possession.
