Catalogue Note
Second edition of a play attributed to Shakespeare during his lifetime, but not included in the First Folio; it was subsequently added to the Third Folio. This was one of the plays of the intended Pavier-Jaggard collected edition, but accurately dated since Pavier owned the copyright.
