 This facsimile is from an original copy now in the British 
 Museum Library dated 1607. 
 
 The play would seem to have been popular, as other editions 
 appeared circa 1610, in 1617, 1622, 1632 and 1657. 
 
 The anonymity of authorship has not been satisfactorily solved. 
 By an obvious mistake it was at one tim,e ascribed to Antony Brewer 
 (q.v. D.N.B.). 
 
 By tradition Oliver Cromwell was said to have performed the 
 part of Tactus in the play at Cambridge. 
 
 This reproduction from, the original copy has been well and 
 satisfactorily carried out.
