Notes:

"First Printing, July 1930. Revised Edition, September 1933 ... Seventh Printing, January, 1947."

"The conveniences of modern book making have enabled the publishers to print separately from the 'Student's Milton' the complete Poems, with the Introduction, the Early Lives, and the Notes that belong to the Poems. In writing these notes the editor has had this separate edition in mind, and instead of referring merely to the page in the prose, has usually quoted the entire passage, so that the student will not be compelled to turn to another book for his reference This second edition has brought one much wished for opportunity, the possibility of revising the text ... He has now collated afresh all the poetry and hopes that no serious errors remain."--Preface..
