Book Description
Excerpt from A Concordance to the Poetical Works of John Milton The only Concordance to Milton's Poetical Works that has yet appeared is that by the late Mr. Guy Lushington Prendergast of the Madras Civil Service, published at Madras in 1857. The edition was small, and it has long been out of print. Unfortunately, too, the editing seems to have been left to the printers, who apparently cut off from either end of a quotation such words as would not fit into a line of the Concordance, thus rendering it necessary for one consulting the work to refer in most cases to the passage in Milton; there are also many errors in it owing to the fact that to copyists as well as to compositors English was a foreign language. In 1867 Mr. C. D. Cleveland, of Philadelphia, published in England a small work entitled A Complete Concordance to the Poetical Works of John Milton (london, Sampson Low), but it was merely a verbal index, a first edition of which had appeared in Cleveland's edition of Milton's Poetical Works, published in America in 1854. Previous to this there was Todd's Verbal Index, appended to his edition of Milton's Poetical Works in 1809; but in it, according to Cleveland, there are over three thousand mistakes. In the present Concordance I have followed the text of the new Aldine Edition of Milton's Poetical Works, edited by me this year for Messrs. George Bell Sons, which was carefully revised from my edition of Milton's Poetical Works, published by W. H. Allen Co. In 1877 and 1885.

Book Description
This book was the more welcome since works of the kind already before the public were very inadequate to meet the need of the Miltonic student. The first step was taken by Todd in 1809, when he affixed to his edition of Milton a verbal index of both the English and the Latin poems. When put to the test, this was found to be incomplete and inaccurate. Mr. C. D. Cleveland, of Philadelphia, finding Todd's work wholly unsatisfactory, took it as a basis, and, by corrections and additions, made what assumes to be a complete and accurate concordance, but which, in reality, is only a word-index. It is much fuller and more trustworthy than the work of Todd, but still it is greatly limited in its usefulness by the omission of the citations. This appeared first in 1854, as an appendix to Mr. Cleve land's edition of Milton, but in 1867 ^ was issued as a separate volume by Sampson Low. In 1857 appeared, in Madras, a work entitled A Complete Concordance to the Poetical Works of Milton, by Mr. G. L. Prendergast of the Madras Civil Service. The edition was small and soon out of print, and the book is now practically unobtainable. -- from http://www.jstor.org (June 19, 2014).
