Notes: No imprint, so no details of printer, publisher, place or date of publication are given. London suggested by STC. The author's focus on the conflict between sorrow and joy and the transfer of power from James I to Charles I - a change that is 'Nothing but in Name' - points strongly to a publication date of 1625. Engraving shows Charles on horseback in the foreground, surrounded by mourners, with James lying on a hearse behind.
