This book, titled Lycidas And Epitaphium Damonis Of Milton, Including A Reprint Of The Rare Latin Version Of The Lycidas By William Hogg, 1694 (1874) is a collection of two poems by John Milton, namely Lycidas and Epitaphium Damonis. The book also includes a reprint of the rare Latin version of Lycidas by William Hogg, which was originally published in 1694. The first poem, Lycidas, is a pastoral elegy written in memory of Milton's friend, Edward King, who drowned in the Irish Sea. The poem is known for its use of classical mythology and its exploration of themes such as grief, loss, and the fleeting nature of life. The second poem, Epitaphium Damonis, is a Latin elegy written in memory of Milton's former tutor, Charles Diodati, who had died of tuberculosis. The poem is notable for its use of Latin verse and its exploration of themes such as friendship, mortality, and the afterlife. The book is edited by Charles Stanger Jerram, who provides an introduction and notes on the poems. The reprint of William Hogg's Latin version of Lycidas is included as an appendix. Overall, this book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Milton's poetry, as well as those interested in classical literature and elegiac poetry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
