1903 Reynolds prints Folger text, 238 (in her section of Ann's religious poetry); rpts of 1903 Reynolds: 1928 Murray, 91 (retitled "The Jealous Doves" and placed in a section of fables); 1930 Fausset 101 (following Reynolds, as a religious poem). Source:
Proverbs 6:34. 20C:
Rpt of 1713/1903: 1973 Goulianos, 82 (anti-male poem). Comment:
This fable-like allegory is highly free and psychologically shrewd elaboration; it looks forward to some of Samuel Richardson's meditations (when "personating" Lovelace) in his 1748 novel, Clarissa.
