.
<<Andrew {CROOK}e (died 20 September 1674) and William Cooke (died 1641?) were London publishers of the mid-17th-century. In partnership and individually, they issued significant texts of English Renaissance drama, most notably of the plays of James
Shirley. Andrew {CROOK}e was the son of a William {CROOK}e, a yeoman of Kingston Blount, Oxfordshire. On 26 March 1629, Andrew {CROOK}e won his "freedom" of the Stationers Company — that is to say, he gained full membership in the guild of London
booksellers, publishers, and printers — and in time "became one of the leading publishers of his day." Perhaps his most notable solo achievements were the 1640 publication of the second edition of Ben Jonson's 1616 folio, and his editions of the
Religio Medici of Sir [T]homas [BROWNE]. (Of the latter, {CROOK}e published two unauthorized editions in 1642, and the authorized and corrected edition of 1643, plus subsequent editions in 1645, 1648, 1656, 1659, 1669, and 1672). His currently best-known
publication is Thomas Hobbes' scientific & political tract Leviathan.>> -------------------------------------------------------

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Browne
<<Sir Thomas Browne (19 October 1605 – 19 October 1682) was an English polymath and author of varied works which reveal his wide learning in diverse fields including science and medicine, religion and the esoteric. Although often described as suffused
with melancholia, Browne's writings are also characterised by wit and subtle humour, while his literary style is varied, according to genre, resulting in a rich, unique prose which ranges from rough notebook observations to polished Baroque eloquence. In
1646 Browne published his encyclopaedia, Pseudodoxia Epidemica, or, Enquiries into Very many Received Tenents, and commonly Presumed Truths, the title of which refers to the prevalence of false beliefs and "vulgar errors". A sceptical work that debunks a
number of legends circulating at the time in a methodical and witty manner, it displays the Baconian side of Browne—the side that was unafraid of what at the time was still called "the new learning". The book is significant in the history of science
because it promoted an awareness of up-to-date scientific journalism. ........................................................

. Essays or Counsels I. Of [TRUTH]. (by Bacon)
WHAT is [TRUTH]? said jesting Pilate; and would not stay for
an answe[R]. Certainly there be that delight in giddiness,
and co[U]nt it a bondage to fix a belief; affecting free-will
in [T]hinking, as well as in acting. And though the sects of
p[H]ilosophers of that kind be gone, yet there remain certain
discoursing wits which are of the same veins, though there be not so
much blood in them as was in those of the ancient(S). But it is not
only the difficulty and labour which men take in finding out (O)f truth;
nor again that when it is found it imposeth upon men's thoughts; tha(T)
doth bring lie{S} in favour; but a natural though corrupt love of t{H}e
lie its(E)lf. One of the later school of the Greci{A}ns examineth the
matter, and is at a (S)tand to thin{K} what should be in it, that men
should love lies, wh{E}re neither (T)hey make for pleasure, as with
poets, nor for advantage, as with the merchant; but for the lie's sake.
But I cannot tell: this same truth is a naked and open day-light, that
doth not shew the masks and mummeries and triumphs of the world, half
so stately and daintily as candle-lights. Truth may perhaps come to the
price of a pearl, that sheweth best by day; but it will not rise to the
price of a diamond or carbuncle, that sheweth best in varied lights.
A mixture of a lie doth ever add pleasure. ......................................................

17th-century References to Shakespeare's Stratford Monument

<<One of the 1623 First Folios in the Folger Shakespeare Library
(no. 26 according to the Folger numbering) contains 3 handwritten
poems on the last end page of the volume, written in a secretary

the poem from Shakespeare's monument in the Stratford church
("Stay passenger why go'st thou by so fast"). The second
is not recorded elsewhere, and goes as follows: ..............................................................
