"No more than five poems can be ascribed with confidence to his pen.  Of the remaining fifteen, five were assigned without controversy to other hands in Shakespeare's lifetime; two were published elsewhere anonymously: and eight, although of uncertain authorship, lack all signs of Shakespeare's workmanship."--Introd., p. 8.

The discovery in 1920 of fragments of an earlier edition indicates that this is the second rather than the first edition.  cf. The passionate pilgrim ... reproduced in facsimile from the unique copy in the Folger Shakespeare library, introduction by J.Q. Adams.  1939.
