Baldwin's original plan, inferred from clues in the extant poems, seems to have been to write three volumes of lives: up to the reign of

Baldwin's and his contemporary writers, gave way to mostly laudatory accounts of the distant legends of the early Britons. What was once a politically contentious book, examining lives offering

Baldwin did not continue the plan. Whether this was due to ill health—he probably died around 1563—or because the recent lives were more controversial, is uncertain, but it is significant that the next major

Complaint of Henry Duke of Buckingham", are often the only ones regarded as having any lasting literary merit. Another reason for the ascription to Sackville is due to the reorganisations the work underwent in later editions, giving accidental

Most later critics, if they mention the work at all, can not avoid pointing out its many faults. Often only
Sackville's contribution is regarded as worthy of preservation. Many of the other poems are told in a dull, didactic tone and
