Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The British Theatre, Vol. 6 of 25: Or a Collection of Plays, Which Are Acted at the Theatres Royal, Drury Lane, Covent Garden, and Haymarket
The weight of years was on Fletcher's side, but tra dition has given the weight of judgment to Beau mont. It is supposed, that Fletcher wrote, whilst Beaumont planned the table, and corrected the dia logue of his more witty and volatile, though elder associate. But all accounts Upon this point are merely conjectural, for the authors behaved too much like men to disclose the secret means of their labour; and here a curious inquirer after facts might almost wish they had been women.
