THOMAS STANLEY: HIS ORIGINAL LYRICS, COMPLETE
IN THEIR COLLATED READINGS OF 1647, 1651, 1657 Von: THOMAS STANLEY
He was born in Cumberlow, Hertfordshire, the son of Sir Thomas Stanley of Cumberlow, Hertfordshire and his wife, Mary Hammond. Mary was the cousin of Richard Lovelace, and Stanley was educated in company with the son of Edward Fairfax, the translator of Tasso. He proceeded to Cambridge in 1637, in his thirteenth year, as a gentleman commoner of Pembroke Hall. In 1641 he took his M.A. degree, but seems by that time to have proceeded to Oxford.[1] He subsequently embarked on a legal career.
