Huntington Library and Art Gallery for afiording me opportunities of study and for permission to include in my chapter, Milton's Schoolmasters, a great deal of material which first appeared in the Huntington Library Quarterly, February, 1946.Time for the completion of the manuscript was a¿orded by a fellowship awarded in 1944 by the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, for which I am deeply grateful, and by a leave of absence granted me by the President and Trus tees of Columbia University. My studies at every step have been facilitated by Mary Isabel Fry, Constance M. Winchell, and Jean F.
