Rapin's _Discourse of Pastorals_ was first published in Latin,
with his eclogues, under the title: Eclogae, cum dissertatione de
carmine pastorali. Parisiis, apud S. Cramoisy, 1659.
The English translation by Thomas Creech, prefixed to his translation
of the _Idylliums_ of Theocritus, appeared in 1684. A second
edition "to which is prefix'd, The Life of Theocritus. By Basil
Kennet", was printed at London for E. Curll, at the Dial and Bible
against St. Dunstan's Church in Fleet-street, in 1713, and a third
edition, also printed for Curll, appeared in 1721.
