Excerpt from The Comedy of Mucedorus QC has lately been reprinted for subscribers by Mr. J. Payne Collier, who has likewise modernized the old spelling, and, beside a short introductory notice in which he claims one of the scenes first printed in QC (iv, 1) for Shakespeare, has added a few notes and conjectures; as for the rest, Mr. Collier has made no attempt to restore that form of the old play which originally it must have borne, even if penned by the humblest of all Elizabethan play wrights.
