Certayne Notes Of Instruction In English Verse; The Steele Glas; The Complaynt Of Philomene (1895) is a book written by the English poet and writer, George Gascoigne. The book is a collection of three works, each with a distinct theme and style.The first work, Certayne Notes Of Instruction In English Verse, is a guide to writing poetry in the English language. It provides readers with tips and techniques for composing verse, including advice on rhyme, meter, and other aspects of poetic form.The second work, The Steele Glas, is a satirical poem that criticizes the vanity and superficiality of courtly life in Elizabethan England. The poem is written in a mock-heroic style, using grandiose language and exaggerated imagery to mock the foolishness of the courtiers.The third work, The Complaynt Of Philomene, is a lamentation of unrequited love. The poem is written in the form of a dialogue between the poet and a nightingale, with the nightingale representing the poet's longing for love and the poet representing the pain of rejection.Overall, Certayne Notes Of Instruction In English Verse; The Steele Glas; The Complaynt Of Philomene (1895) is a fascinating collection of works that showcases Gascoigne's skill as a poet and his ability to write in a variety of styles and genres.
