Made you for his helpe when the world began, in due time duly. Then sith God's will was even so why should you disdaine your Louer tho ? But rather with a willing heart, loue him truly; For in so doing you do your part let reason rule ye. The metrical form of Keats's verses is not, indeed, the same as that of the Elizabethan song, but I think he must certainly have had the cadence of its refrains more or less consciously in his mind's ear.^ A definite and dated case of a lyrical experiment sugg...ested to Keats at this time by an older model is the famous little 'drear-nighted December' song in which he re-embodies, with new and seasonable imagery, the ancient moral of the misery added to misery by the remembrance of past happiness. This was composed, as Woodhouse on the express testimony of Jane Reynolds informs us, in the beginning of this same December, 1817, when Keats was finishing Endymion at Burford > If it is objected that The Handful of Pleasant Ddites is an excessively rare book, which Keats is not likely to have known, the answer is that it had been reprinted three years earher in Heliconia, the great three-volume collection edited by Thomas Park; and moreover that Park, one of the most zealous and learned of researchers in the field of old Engli^ literature, had long been living in Church Row, Hampstead, and both as neighbour and elder fellow-worker can hardly fail to have been known to Dilke and bis circle.
