Left The earliest English rendering of the story of the Pied Piper of Hamelin,
from the 1655
edition of A Restitution of Decayed Intelligence by Richard
Verstegan (originally published 1605).
Verstegan was a half-English, half-Dutch
antiquary and religious historian, and his book is a miscellany
of facts and fancies
concerning the early history of the Germanic peoples and their languages
and
cultures.
