 Behn's was a verse-letter addressed to Anne, included in her 1684 "Poems on Several Occasions", in which she took the opportunity of defending herself from a charge of bawdiness brought by the future bishop Gilbert Burnet, who had attended Rochester on his deathbed.Anne may also have prompted Behn to provide a prologue for Rochester's play "Valentinian", which was first performed in 1684.A modern critical edition of 34 known works by Anne Wharton was published in 1997, but at least eleven other poems have been discovered in manuscript since then.
