[Some account of William Warner will be found in Wood's _Athenae

Oxonienses_. vol. i. pp., 765-773. (Bliss); also in Percy's _Reliques

of Ancient English Poetry_, vol. ii. p. 261., edit. 1812. From the

register of Amwell, in Herts, it appears that he died there March 9,

1608-9, "soddenly in the night in his bedde, without any former

complaint or sicknesse;" and that he was "a man of good yeares and

honest reputation; by his profession an attorney at the Common

Please."--Scott's _Amwell_, p. 22. note.]

"_Isle of Beauty._"--Who was the author of "Isle of Beauty?" I always

thought Thomas Haynes Bayly, but some say Lord Byron. Not knowing Mrs.

Bayly's immediate address, I send this Query. I much regret not asking her

when I sent my volume of poems, with view of poor Bayly's Grove,

Cheltenham.
