It highlights the influence of continental European culture on English poets, particularly during the reigns of Henry VIII and Elizabeth I. The introduction emphasizes the compilation's focus on amatory verses and includes insight into significant contributors, such as Sir Thomas Wyatt and the Earl of Surrey, while also noting that only a fraction of these poetic expressions has survived through the ages.
