The ballad, or rather ode, as Drayton himself entitles it:--

"Fair stood the wind for France,"

is to be found in the very rare volume with the following title, _Poemes

Lyrick and Pastorall, Odes, Eglogs, The Man in the Moon, by Michael

Drayton, Esquire_. At London, printed by R.B. for N.L. and J. Flaskett.

12mo. (No date, but circa 1600.)

I think the odes are given in the other volumes of the early editions of

Drayton's _Miscellaneous Poems_; but I speak without book, my collection

being in the country.

The selection from Herrick, noticed by Mr. Milner Barry, was made by Dr.

Nott of Bristol, whose initials, J.N., are on the title page. "The head

and front of my offending" is the Preface of Mr. Pickering's neat

edition of Herrick in 1846.
