20 Fowler, “Genre and Tradition,” in The Cambridge Companion to English Poetry: Donne<br />
to Marvell, ed. Thomas N.Corns, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1993, p.<br />
89. The example he provides is from the second song from Book II of Britannia’s<br />
Pastorals. The final lines of the song, not quoted by Fowler, conclude on a<br />
characteristic note of expansion:<br />
Yet of faire Albion all the westerne Swaines<br />
Were long since up, attending on the Plaines<br />
When Nereus daughter with her mirthfull hoast<br />
Should summon them, on their declining coast.<br />

25 “Brief Lives,” Chiefly of his Contemporaries, I, 221. David Norbrook, “Levelling<br />
Poetry: George Wither and the English Revolution, 1642–1649,” English Literary<br />
Renaissance 21 (1991):217–18, has questioned the truth of this anecdote. In a similar<br />
possibly erroneous manner, the Dictionary of National Biography assumes Wither is the<br />
subject of the following lines from “The Second Part of Absalom and Achitophel”:<br />
“But Fagotted his Notions as they fell,/And if they Rhim’d and Rattl’d all was well.”<br />
