Excerpt from Thomas Stanley: His Original Lyrics, Complete in Their Collated Readings of 1647, 1651, 1657 The boy was sent to Pembroke College, Cambridge, before he was fifteen, and was entered as a gentleman commoner of that University, passing by no means unmarked among a brilliant generation; and there, in 1641, he graduated Master of Arts, being incorporated at Oxford in the same degree.

Matthew Shipp, pianist, composer, bandleader
