- VENUS AND
ADONIS
yy
petent
editorship
of Dr.
Sewell.
Neither
Theobald,
Hanmer,
Dr.
Johnson,
Warburton,
Capell,
nor Steevens noticed
the
poems
in
their
editions
of
the
plays.
Capell annotated
in
manuscript
a
copy
of
the
Lintott
reprint,
but
the
revision
remains
unpublished
in
the
Capell
collection in
the
library
of Trinity
College,
Cambridge.
In 1774
J- Bell,
a
London
bookseller,
first
mcluded
the
poems
in a
trade
reprint
of
the
plays.'
In 1780
Malone
included
the
poems
in
his
Supplement
to
Johnson
and
Steevens^ edition
of
Shakespeare'*
s
Plays
of
1778^
and
there
first
attempted
a
critical
recension
of the
text'.
They
reappeared
as
a
matter of
course
in
Malone's
great
edition
of
the
works
of Shakespeare,
in
1790.
It
is
due
to
Malone's
example
that Venus
and
Monis and
the
rest
of
Shakespeare's
non-dramatic works
were
finally
admitted
to
the
Shakespearean
canon. They
fill
a
place
in
all
the
nineteenth-
century
editions of
Shakespeare's
works
which
enjoy
a
standard
repute.
'Many
so-called collections
of
Shakespeare's
poems,
which
were
produced
by
publishers
in the
middle
of
the
eighteenth century
under
such
titles
as
roems
written
by Shakespeare',
or
'Poems
on several
occasions
by
William
Shakespeare
were merely
reprints of
the
1^4.0
edition of Shakespeare's
Foems which
contained only
the Sonnets
and
Tassionate
Filgrim
and
omitted
bhakcspeare's
narrative
poems.
