Note

Anonymous. By Edward Young

Date from Foxon

"Presumably a piracy; Petitt [A bibliography of Young's Night thoughts, 1954] is in error in saying it uses the shortened preface introduced in 1750, but it may well be later than 1750" (Foxon).

Uncontrolled note

H. B. Forster dates the work 1763? and correctly states that the last Night (no. 9) in this edition was not published until Jan. 1745/46
