C. Chew (Byron in England: his fame and after-fame. London, 1924, p. 181) calls the present work, probably by Edward N. Shannon (cf. F. Boase, Modern English Biography, containing many thousand concise memoirs of persons who have died during the years 1851-1900, with an index of the most interesting matter. 1921, v. 6, col. 544), "an instructive imitation of Byron's earlier narrative manner." The poems were reprinted in Shannon’s Tales Old and New, with other Lesser Poems, vol. 1 [all issued], London, 1842, cf. New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature.</span><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:justify;line-height:normal;"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:justify;line-height:normal;"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="https://catalyst.library.jhu.edu/catalog/bib_4103421" rel="ugc nofollow">Click here to view the Johns Hopkins University catalog record.</a></span></span></p>
