Gptus and Girginta 


Again to “the Irish find of 1906” is due the unearthing 
of a second copy of the original edition of this play. Until 
then the example in the British Museum (Pressmark C. 34, 
b. 2) was the only copy known to be extant. Like many 
other unique examples of early English plays now in 
national custody it came from the Garrick collection. 

Since the Irish copy was sold, another from the Mostyn 
Library came into the market in une 1907. 

The identity of R. B. has not been definitely ascertained 
—the initials apply to several writers of the time—but it is 
commonly attributed to Richard Bower, of whom, however, 
“The Dictionary of National Biography” takes no note. 

The date of composition is probably 1563; there are 
several references pointing to the plague of that year. 

It was entered on the Stationers Register in 1567 by 
Rycharde ‘fonnes. 

Mr. f. A. Herbert, of the Manuscript Department of 
the British Museum, has little to criticise after comparing 
this facsimile with the original copy :— 

(1) Title-page, there is no smudge under the “ta” of 

“ Cragicall” im the original. 
v 


(2) Q, w. recto, ine 14 from top of page, original has 
a white mark, a piece of paper having apparently 
stuck to it, but the word is quite legible as 
* puissant,” 

(3) C. rv. recto, this page is a trifle too faint. 

(4) . tlt. verso, /ast line, initial letter is slightly clearer 
in original. It 1s evidently “ IR.” 

(5) G. ii. verso, /ast dine, “fo the” 7s clearer in 
original, 

(6) G. itt, recto, /ast line at end, clearer in original: 


“strpt” [e], and catchword “ fF” [ame], be/ow.
