| 42. | A Funerall Elegye , written for William Peter, was first edited by D. W. Foster in Elegy by W. S.: A Study in Attribution (Newark, Del., 1989). The poem's attribution to Shakespeare has evoked a flood of debate: to cite from only one year, 1996, for example in the TLS (26 Jan.; 9 and 16 Feb.; 8, 22 and 29 Mar.; 12 Apr.; and 14 June); in the New York Times (14 Jan.); in PMLA 111, 1086-1105; and in Studies in English Literature , 36: 435-60.
