[767] Birch, i. 290, ‘They have plays at least every night, both holidays and working days, wherein they show great----, being for the most part such poor stuff, that instead of delight, they send the auditory away with discontent. Indeed, our poets’ brains and inventions are grown very dry, insomuch that of five new plays there is not one pleases, and therefore they are driven to furbish over their old, which stand them in best stead, and bring them most profit’ (John Chamberlain).

[779] This payment was by warrant of the Lord Chamberlain.

[780] P. C. Acts name Westcote.

[781] On the unrewarded plays of 1563–4 and 1564–5, cf. ch. vii.

[782] In P. C. Acts, by an obvious error, £7 13_s._ 8_d._

[783] P. C. Acts specify ‘Shrove Tuesday’.

[784] Apparently one play was unrewarded.

[785] P. C. Acts describe the company as Lane’s, and put the performance 26 Dec., Windsor 27 Dec., and Paul’s 1 Jan.

[786] P. C. Acts give payees as ‘Lawrence Dutton and his fellows’. Wallace, i. 213, states in error that this and the next payment are not in D. A.

[787] P. C. Acts give payee as ‘----, Master of the Children of Westminster’.

[788] Wallace, i. 215, reads ‘cumyng’ in error.

[789] In view of the date in the warrant, the ‘Monday’ of the Revels Accounts should clearly be ‘Sunday’.

[790] The D. A. give all three plays on Shrove Sunday, but Cunningham has Shrove Monday for Warwick’s and omits Muncaster’s, which may have been on the Tuesday, although two plays were sometimes given on the same night.

[791] The D. A. give Sunday before Shrovetide, which might mean either Shrove Sunday (Mar. 4) or the preceding Sunday (Feb. 26).

[792] P. C. Acts name John Dutton, as well as Lawrence, and put Muncaster’s play on Sunday. It is safer to follow D. A.

[793] As the entry stands, it should refer to Warwick’s, but I think it probably does refer to Leicester’s.

[794] P. C. Acts have Chamberlain’s for Howard’s.

[795] As two plays on one night are exceptional, it is safer to follow the Revels Account.

[796] The £10 payment has now become normal, but to the end of the reign is stated, usually but not invariably, as made up of £6 13_s._ 4_d._ with a ‘more’ sum of £3 6_s._ 8_d._, by way of Her Majesty’s ‘rewarde’, ‘speciall rewarde’, or ‘further liberalitie and rewarde’.

[797] The Pipe Office D. A. date Sunday, Jan. ‘firste’. Jan. 5 was Sunday; the ‘fifte’ of A. O. (Wallace, i. 220) is right.

[798] Presumably the Revels Accounts put this play on 4 Jan. in error.

[799] The 27 Dec. of Revels Accounts is preferable.

[800] P. C. Acts give Shrove Sunday for the Chamberlain’s as well as Warwick’s.

[801] Both the ‘Twesday’ of the Pipe Office and the ‘Tewsday’ of the Audit Office (Wallace, i. 223) D. A. are doubtless errors for ‘Twelfday’. P. C. Acts have ‘Twelfte Daye’.

[802] P. C. Acts give Shrove Sunday (Feb. 9).

[803] P. C. Acts give 23 Dec., obviously in error.

[804] So P. C. Acts.

[805] P. C. Acts do not name Ottewell, and call the company the Admiral’s.

[806] P. C. Acts give 27 Dec.

[807] Cf. p. 56.

[808] Dasent reads ‘Flemings’.

[809] P. C. Acts have ‘John’ Shawe.

[810] So P. C. Acts.

[811] For a discussion of these entries, cf. p. 136.

[812] For a discussion of these entries, cf. p. 140.

[813] The payment is for 12 plays; one date [13 Jan.?] is obviously omitted.

[814] Cunningham gives the date as 16 Jan.

[815] This item is entered in Account for 1612–13; Rawl. MS. gives the date.

[816] Cunningham gives this date as 18 Feb.

[817] The dates of the Prince’s, Lady Elizabeth’s, and Revels plays are given by Rawl. MS. but not D. A.

[818] This is probably the play of 20 Oct. in the Cockpit to which (Birch, i. 198) Elizabeth invited Frederick.

[819] Both D. A. and Cunningham, xliii, have the error for £46 13_s._ 4_d._ Both records also date the King’s men’s plays of this winter as ‘1614’ instead of ‘1613’.

[820] So D. A., but Cunningham’s 28 Dec. is more probable.

[821] Henceforward play payments are by warrant from Lord Chamberlain, not Privy Council; cf. ch. vii.

[822] This item is entered in the Account for 1615–16.

[823] This item is entered in the Account for 1616–17.

[824] errant. Om. A. B has marginal note ‘Erratum in the last impression’.

[825] B adds in margin, King Agesilaus teaches the respect due to common players in his answere to Callipides, who being a presumptious excellent actor; & thinking himself not graced enough by the kings notice, as the king passed along, doth sawcily interrupt him thus; doth not your grace know me? Yes, said the king, thou art Calipides the Player.
