Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Early English Poetry, Ballads, and Popular Literature of the Middle Ages, Vol. 27: Edited From Original Manuscripts and Scarce Publications The only introduction, to what was supposed to have been a lost play of Massinger´s, that can be required from me on placing that entitled "Beleeve as you List" in the hands of the Members of the Percy Society, is a simple statement of the circumstances under which the manuscript copy of it came into my possession. In the fourth volume of the Monthly Mirror, (a periodical devoted to theatrical affairs and now scarcely remembered), New Series, p. 177, for September 1808, the following passage occurs with reference to the edition of Massinger´s works produced by the late editor of the Quarterly Review. "On reading Mr. Gifford´s preface to this author, I felt equally inclined with himself, and indeed every lover of the drama, to lament the destruction of those plays which were deposited in the care of Mr. Warburton´s cook. Among them is the title of one, Beleeve as you List, in relation to which Colley Cibber has a remark, vol. ii, p. 203, of the Apology for his Life.
