'The poems were first collected and published in 1647, under the title of 'Certain Elegant Poems written by Dr. Corbet, bishop of Norwich', with a dedication to 'the lady Teynham'. A part of this collection appeared in 1648, under the title of 'Poetica Stromata', and it is probable that that volume was edited by some of the bishop's friends. In 1672 the former collection was reissued with a few additions, some typographical corrections, and a dedication to Sir Edmund Bacon of Redgrave ... ' [DNB]'.
