Samples of William Popple's unprinted Horatian imitations of the 1750s appeared in this journal in 2007 (Vol. 16 Part 2), their texts taken from two manuscript volumes at the Beinecke Rare Books and Manuscripts Library. The best of Popple's remaining, and still unpublished, Satires of Horace are here edited and printed: Satires 1.4, 1.6, 1.9, 2.1, and 2.3. At the same time, fuller information now available on Popple, and on the social and professional circles to which these works make reference, allows some further account of the historical and biographical context of these Horatian imitations.
