In 1590, Richard Harvey's <i>The Lamb of God</i> complained of the anti-Martinist pamphleteers in general, including a side-swipe at the <i>Menaphon</i> preface. Two years later, Greene's <i>A Quip for an Upstart Courtier</i> contained a passage on "rope makers" that clearly refers to the Harveys (whose father made ropes). The passage, which was removed from subsequent editions, may have been Nashe's. After Gabriel Harvey mocked Greene's death in <i>Four Letters</i>, Nashe wrote <i>Strange News</i> (1592). Nashe attempted to apologise in the preface to <i>Christ's Tears Over Jerusalem</i> (1593), but the appearance of <i>Pierce's Supererogation</i> shortly after offended Nashe anew. He replied with <i><a href="/wiki/Have_with_You_to_Saffron-Walden" title="Have with You to Saffron-Walden">Have with You to Saffron-Walden</a></i> (1596), with a possibly sardonic dedication to <a href="/wiki/Richard_Lichfield" title="Richard Lichfield">Richard Lichfield</a>, a barber of Cambridge. Harvey did not publish a reply, but Lichfield answered in a tract called "The Trimming of Thomas Nash," (1597).

In brief, the plot describes the death of Summer, who, feeling himself to be dying, reviews the performance of his former servants and eventually passes the crown on to Autumn. The play was published in 1600. Nashe is widely remembered for three short poems, all drawn from this play and frequently reprinted in anthologies of Elizabethan verse: “Adieu, farewell, earth’s bliss,” “Fair summer droops” and “Autumn hath all the summer’s fruitful treasure.” Nashe may also have contributed to <i><a href="/wiki/Henry_VI,_Part_1" title="Henry VI, Part 1">Henry VI, Part 1</a></i>, the play later published under Shakespeare's name as the first part of the <i>Henry VI</i> trilogy. <a href="/wiki/Gary_Taylor_(English_literature_scholar)" class="mw-redirect" title="Gary Taylor (English literature scholar)">Gary Taylor</a> believes that Nashe was the principal author of the first act.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Nashe subsequently promoted the play in his pamphlet <i>Pierce Penniless</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In 1593 Nashe published <i>Christ's Tears Over Jerusalem</i>, a pamphlet dedicated to Lady <a href="/wiki/Elizabeth_Spencer,_Baroness_Hunsdon" title="Elizabeth Spencer, Baroness Hunsdon">Elizabeth Carey</a>. Despite the work's apparently devotional nature it contained satirical material which gave offence to the London civic authorities and Nashe was briefly imprisoned in <a href="/wiki/Newgate_Prison" title="Newgate Prison">Newgate Prison</a>.

At times the identity of Pierce seems to conflate with Nashe's own. But Nashe also portrays Pierce at times as an arrogant fool. The story is told in a style that is complex, witty, anecdotal, and peppered with newly-minted words and Latin phrases. The satire can be mocking and bitingly sharp, and at times Nashe’s style seems to relish its own obscurity.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_Choise_of_Valentines"><i>The Choise of Valentines</i></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Thomas_Nashe&amp;action=edit&amp;section=6" title="Edit section: The Choise of Valentines"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>At some time in the early 1590s Nashe produced an erotic poem, <i><a href="/wiki/The_Choise_of_Valentines" title="The Choise of Valentines">The Choise of Valentines</a></i> that begins with a sonnet to "Lord S".
