A copy of 'Pompey', a translation by Katherine Philips (The Matchless Orinda) of 'La Mort de Pompée' by Pierre Corneille, together with songs by the translator, a prologue by Wentworth Dillon, earl of Roscommon, and an epilogue by Sir Edward Dering. The text bears corrections and additions in Katherine Philips's hand, e.g. the last six lines on f. 38. 'Pompey' was first performed and published in Dublin in 1663. Textual differences indicate that this version cannot be derived from the subsequent London editions of 1663 and 1667 [first, Dublin, edition not available for consultation in NLW].
