"Thomas Wolsey, Late Cardinall, his Lyffe and Deathe" was first printed in 1641, in a garbled text, and under the title of "The Negotiations of Thomas Wolsey". The genuine text, from contemporary manuscripts, was published in 1810. Singer published the first complete edition in 1825: "The Life of Cardinal Wolsey, and Metrical Visions; from the original autograph manuscript". The "metrical visions" were his tragic poems: laments in the voice of ill-fated contemporary figures like Lady Jane Grey. Until the 19th century it was believed that the book was the composition of George Cavendish's younger brother William, the founder of Chatsworth House, who also was attached to Wolsey. Joseph Hunter proved this to be impossible, and definitely asserted the claim of George. The latter is believed to have died at Glemsford before July 1562.
