Gentle Sir Philip Sidney, thou knew'st what belong'd to a scholler; thou knew'st what pains, what toil, what travail conduct to perfection.

Coming to a newsstand near you!
I returned proofs to "Prose Studies" today, so it looks like my very first article will appear in the August issue (28: 2), pp. 210-220. I know everyone's been wanting to run out and learn about preaching rhetoric in sixteenth century England, so here's your chance!
So where can those of us who DO want to run get copies find them? How many will you get and can you get us one? The Father-in-Law likes preaching rhetoric -- and the Mother-in-Law will need it for her CM album!!
"I am grown at length to see into the vanity of the world more than ever I did, and now I condemn myself for nothing so much as playing the dolt in print . . . . There is nothing that if a man list he may not wrest or pervert. I cannot forbid any to think villainously, Sed caveat emptor, let the interpreter beware; for none ever heard me make allegories of an idle text."
