Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Choise of Valentines, or the Merie Ballad of Nash His Dildo
It is a matter of history that Nash sought, and succeeded in obtaining for a time, the patronage of the Earl of Southampton, one of the most liberal men of his day, and a prominent figure in the declining years of Elizabeth. I once tasted, Nash writes in the full spring of the Earl's liberality. Record is also made of a visit paid by him to Lord Southampton and Sir George Carey, while the former was Governor, and the latter captain-general, of the Isle of Wight.
