Often referred to as the second edition of this rare collection of poems. No poet is listed by name, but John Sheffield, Marquis of Normanby, Charles Sedley, George Etherege, and Aphra Behn have been identified as authors. A shorter version in two parts had appeared the year before, so all though technically being a second edition, this version contains new material. These authors are all associated with the period of English literature known as the ""Restoration Era"" (1660-1700) and were influential figures in the literary and theatrical scene of late 17th century England.The period was marked by a resurgence of the arts, theater, and literature characterized by wit, satire, and exploration of social norms.
