Excerpt from The Poetical Works of John Milton, Vol. 1 of 2: English and Latin, Edited, With a Bibliographical Introduction, Life of Milton, and an Analysis of Addison's Criticism on Paradise Lost The Aldine Milton in the original series was edited by the Rev. John Mitford just sixty years ago, in three volumes, with a somewhat lengthy Life, and with a few footnotes to the poems. The present edition is an entirely new work, and the chief object aimed at has been to give as correct a Text as possible the poems are arranged in chronological order, and the greatest care has been taken to see that the read ings are correct and the punctuation accurate. Notes have been dispensed with, and the work thereby produced in a more convenient form in two volumes; and a student can go for his notes either to some of the editions referred to in the Introduction or to specially annotated Selections.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
