William Hamilton Murray was born 20 June, 1789.
This officer entered the Navy, 5 April, 1804, as Fst.-cl. Vol., on board La Chiffonne 36, Capt. Chas. Adam; in which, ship, when in company with the Falcon sloop, Clinker gun-brig, and Frances armed cutter, we find him assisting at the destruction, after a chase of nine hours, attended with some loss to the British from the incessant fire of the forts along shore, of a division of the French flotilla, consisting of two corvettes and 15 gun-vessels, carrying in all 51 guns, 4 8-inch mortars, and 3 field-pieces, accompanied by 14 transports, under the batteries of Fécamp. On removing with Capt. Adam to the Resistance 38, he witnessed the capture, 13 March, 1806, of the French 80-gun ship Marengo, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Linois, and 40-gun frigate Belle Poule. After a servitude of nearly three years as Midshipman, on the Home and Baltic stations, in the Pilot sloop, Capt. Hon. Wm. Walpole, and Ardent 64, Capts. Jas. Giles Vashon and Robt. Honyman, Mr. Murray, in Sept. 1810, joined the Impérieuse 38, Capt. Hon. Henry Duncan, under whom it was his fortune to see a vast deal of active service in the Mediterranean. On 2 Nov. 1811 he participated, in conjunction with the Thames 32, in the gallant capture and destruction of 10 gun-boats and 22 richly-laden feluccas, defended by a strong tower and two batteries in the harbour of Palinuro on the coast of Calabria, at which place the British were opposed by a land-force of 700 men. He next contributed, 27 June, 1812, to the destruction of a French convoy and of the batteries at Languelia and Alassio – was also present, 17 Aug. in the same year, in a spirited skirmish with a powerful Neapolitan squadron in the Bay of Naples – and, in 1813-14, witnessed the capture of Port d’Anzo, and the operations against Leghorn and Genoa. He left the Impérieuse about July, 1814; and was next, from that period until April, 1815, employed in the North Sea on board the Larne 20 and Dee 24, both commanded by Capt. John Wm. Andrew. He then took up a commission bearing date 4 Feb. in the latter year, but has not been since afloat. Lieut. Murray married 7 July, 1835, and has issue

Francis Aberdeen Murray was born 21 Dec. 1795.
This officer entered the Navy, 25 June, 1809, as Fst.-cl. Vol., on board the Venerable 74, Capt. Andrew King, in which ship, bearing the successive flags of Admirals Sir Rich. John Strachan, Sir Thos. Williams, and Philip Chas.

​MURRAY. (Lieut., 1802. f-p., 25; h-p., 28.)
James Murray entered the Navy, in 1794, as a Volunteer, on board the Seaflower 16, Lieut.Commander Jas. Murray, employed on the Home station, where, we believe, he assisted, as Midshipman, at the capture, 19 March, 1800, of the Chaser French privateer, of 14 guns and 37 men. Proceeding soon afterwards to the West Indies in the Severn 44, Capts. John Whitby and Geo. Barker, he was there, some months after his removal to the Leviathan 74, flag-ship of Sir John Thos. Duckworth, promoted, 4 Dec. 1802, to a Lieutenancy in the Stork 18, Capts. Fred. Cottrell and Geo. Le Geyt. On 23 May, 1805, being sent with two boats, carrying between them 18 men, under the orders of Lieut. Geo. Robinson, into a harbour near Cape Roxo, in the island of Puerto Rico, Mr. Murray assisted in gallantly boarding and capturing a brig, together with a Dutch privateer, the Antelope, pierced for 5 guns, the two vessels being defended by at least 40 men. In this affair he was slightly wounded. On 3 Sept. 1806 we find him officially mentioned for the great assistance he afforded, as chief of a detached party under the direction of Capt, Edw. Rashwork, of the Supérieure brig, at the storming of a battery containing 6 long 18-pounders, mounted on travelling carriages, at Batabano, in the island of Cuba, and the seizure of a number of armed and other vessels there collected. After serving for a few months in the Intrepid 64, Capts. Christopher John Williams Nesham and Geo. Andrews, he obtained command, 30 Dec. 1809, of the Exertion gun-brig, in which vessel, it appears, he continued, on the North Sea station, until July, 1812, when she unfortunately took the ground in the river Elbe, and was in consequence destroyed by H.M.S. Redbreast. Between May, 1813, and Oct. 1815, Mr. Murray was again employed in the West Indies, on board the Shark sloop and Argo 44, bearing each the flag of Vice-Admiral Chas. Stirling, and Thracian 18, Capt. John Carter. In June, 1820, he received an appointment to the Coast Guard; and, from 9 March, 1843, until 1847, he served at Sheerness in the Ocean 80, Capts. Peter Fisher, Rich. Arthur, and David Price.
In consideration of the wound above noticed the Lieutenant was presented with a gratuity from the Patriotic Fund. Agent – Fred. Dufaur.

# A Handful of Pleasant Delights/An answer as pretie to the scof of his Lady

The poem is an answer to the previous poem: "The scoffe of a Ladie, as pretie as may be".
An answer as pretie to the scof of his Lady,
by the yongman that came a wooing,
Wherein he doth flout her.
Being glad he went without her,
Misliking both her and her dooing.
Las Loue, why chafe ye?
Why fret ye, why fume ye?
to me it seemeth verie strange,
Me thinks ye misuse me,
So soone to refuse me,
vnlesse you hope of better change:
Wel, wel:
Wel now, I perceiue ye,
You are mindful to leaue me:
Now sure it doth grieue me:
That I am vnworthie:
That I am vnworthie.
¶I mean not to let ye, nor I can not forget ye,
it wil not so out of my minde:
My loue is not daintie, I see you haue plenty
that set so little by your friend.
Goe too spin on now I pray you, I list not to stay,
I will goe play me:
I am vnfit for you, &c.
[¶]Leaue off to flout now, and prick on your clout now
you are a daintie Dame indeed, ​And thogh of your taunting, I may make my vaunting
as bad or worse than I shal speed:
Sweet heart, though now you forsake it.
I trust you will take it:
and sure I spak[e] it, so fine as you make it, &c
[¶]Now wil I be trudging, without anie grudging
I am content to giue you ground:
Good reson doth bind me, to leue you behind me,
for you are better lost than found:
Go play, go seeke out Dame pleasure:
You are a trim treasure,
Wise women be daintie,
Of fooles there be plentie, &c.
¶If I might aduise ye, few words shuld suffice ye
and yet you shold bestow them wel:
Maids must be manerly, not ful of scurility,
wherein I see you do excel,
Farewel good Nicibicetur,
God send you a sweeter,
A lustie lim lifter, you are a trim shifter, &c.
Finis.

# A Handful of Pleasant Delights/An excellent Song of an outcast Louer

¶ An excellent Song of an outcast Louer.
To, All In a Garden green.
Y fancie did I fixe,
in faithful forme and frame:
in hope ther shuld no blustring blast
haue power to moue the same.
¶And as the Gods do know,
and world can witnesse beare:
I neuer serued other Saint,
nor Idoll other where.
¶But one, and that was she,
whom I in heart did shrine:
And make account that pretious pearle,
and iewel rich was mine.
¶No toile, nor labour great,
could wearie me herein:
For stil I had a Iasons heart,
the golden fleece to win.
¶And sure my sute was hearde,
I spent no time in vaine:
A grant of friendship at her hand,
I got to quite my paine.
​[¶]With solemne vowe and othe.
was knit the True-loue knot,
And friendly did we treat of loue,
as place and time we got.
¶Now would we send our sighes,
as far as they might go,
Now would we worke with open signes,
to blaze our inward wo.
¶Now rings and tokens too,
renude our friendship stil,
And ech deuice that could be wrought,
exprest our plaine goodwill,
[¶]True meaning went withall,
it cannot be denide:
Performance of the promise past,
was hopte for of ech side:
¶And lookt for out of hand:
such vowes did we two make,
As God himself had present been,
record thereof to take.
¶And for my part I sweare,
by all the Gods aboue,
I neuer thought of other friend,
nor sought for other loue.
¶The same consent in her,
I saw ful oft appeare,
If eies could see, or head could iudge,
or eare had power to heare.
¶Yet loe wordes are but winde,
an other new come guest,
Hath won her fauour (as I feare)
as fancies rise in brest.
​[¶]Her friend that wel deserues,
is out of countenaunce quite,
She makes the game to see me shoot,
while others hit the white.
[¶]He may wel beat the bush,
as manie thousands doo:
And misse the birds, and haply loose
his part of feathers too.
¶He hops without the ring,
yet daunceth on the trace,
When some come after soft and faire,
a heauie hobling pace.
¶In these vnconstant daies,
such troth these women haue:
As wauering as the aspen leaf
they are, so God me saue.
¶For no deserts of men
are wei[ghe]d, what ere they be:
For in a mood their minds are led
with new delights we see.
¶The guiltlesse goeth to wrack,
the gorgeous peacocks gay:
They do esteem vpon no cause,
and turne their friends away.
¶I blame not al for one,
some flowers grow by the weeds,
Some are as sure as lock and key,
and iust of words and deeds.
¶And yet of one I waile,
of one I crie and plaine:
And for her sake shall neuer none,
so nip my heart againe:
​¶If for offence or fault,
I had been floong at heele:
The lesse had been my bitter smart,
and gnawing greefe I feele.
¶But being once reteind,
a friend by her consent:
And after that to be disdaind,
when best good will I ment,
¶I take it nothing well,
for if my power could show,
With Larum bel and open crie,
the world should throughly know,

# A Handful of Pleasant Delights/The Historie of Diana and Acteon

The Historie of Diana and Acteon.
To the Quarter Braules.
Iana and her darlings deare,
Walkt once as you shall heare:
Through woods and waters cleare,
themselues to play:
The leaues were gay and green,
And pleasant to be seen:
They went the trees between,
in coole aray,
So long, that at the last they found a place,
of waters full cleare:
So pure and faire a Bath neuer was
found many a yeare.
There shee went faire and gent,
Her to sport, as was her wonted sort:
In such desirous sort:
Thus goeth the report:
Diana dainteously began her selfe therein to bathe
And her body for to laue,
So curious and braue.
​¶As they in water stood,
Bathing their liuelie blood:
Acteon in the wood,
chaunst to come by:
And vewed their bodies bare,
Maruailing what they weare,
And stil deuoid of care,
on them cast his eie:
But when the Nymphs had perceiued him,
aloud then they cried,
Enclosed her, and thought to hide her skin,
which he had spied:
But too true I tell you,
She scene was,
For in height she did passe,
Ech Dame of her race.
Harke then Acteons case:
When Diana did perceue, where Acteon did stand,
She took bowe in her hand,
And to shoot she began.
¶As she began to shoot, Acteon ran about,
To hide he thought no boote,
his sights were dim:
And as he thought to scape,
Changed was Acteons shape,
Such was vnluckie fate,
yeelded to him:
For Diana brought it thus to passe,
and plaied her part,
So that poore Acteon changed was
to a hugie Hart,
And did beare, naught but haire:
In this change,
Which is as true as strange,
And thus did he range,
Abroad

NOTED BY THE PUBLISHER.
The author of this work, having generously place it at the disposal of the Memorial Associations of Virginia,—engaged in the pious task of collecting the remains of the Southern soldiers who fell on Virginia battle-fields, with the view of enclosing and marking their graves,—it is published at the lowest possible cost, for the purpose of raising funds for this praise-worthy object. All the profits arising from the sale of the work will be sacredly appropriated to the end in view. In a letter to the publisher Gen. Early says: "Perhaps I might have made something by a sale of the work; but I wanted to keep clear of all suspicion of writing a book for money." He adds: "You can judge whether it is worthy of republication. One thing is certain—it contains the truth." And nobody who knows Jubal A. Early as we know him, will question his veracity.
Apart from the intrinsic merits of the work,—as a valuable contribution to the history of the late war—revealing facts connecting with a campaign that has not been understood even by our own people,—it is hoped that the laudable object of those who have incurred the expense of republishing it, will secure for this production of a gallant and meritorious officer an extended sale.
