1 Among the many reviewers who have pointed out inaccuracies and deficiencies in this edition, H. A. Mason's book-length treatment of the subject (perhaps the longest book review—209 pages—ever written) should be singled out: Editing Wyatt: An Examination of Collected Poems of Sir Thomas Wyatt together with suggestions for an improved edition. Cambridge Quarterly Publications, Cambridge, 1972. I have not yet seen Joost Daalder's new (1975) edition of Wyatt in the Oxford Standard Authors series; but, since his text is in modern spelling, it cannot satisfy the need for a definitive old-spelling edition.
