For the 1640 collection, a general title page naming Meighen as publisher was printed (by Alsop and Fawcet) on the blank A1r of the 1631 edition. Also added to the 1640 collection were additional plays and poems in what is now called volume 3 of Jonson's Works, which was printed by Dawson for Walkley. Before it was available for sale, however, its sheets were seized from Walkley by Andrew Crooke (1), John Benson, and John Parker (Benson was in debt to Parker). This seizure led Walkley to file a bill in Chancery in January 1641 against Crooke and Benson, who had entered several works by Jonson in the Stationers’ Registers in 1639-1640, and therefore had a competing claim to some of the works in volume 3. Walkley eventually managed to regain possession of the printed sheets of volume 3 and was therefore its only publisher (Greg 3:1081; Giddens 2014). Happé 2014 argues that Walkley issued copies volume 3 separately, albeit without a title page or any paratextual material, a theory earlier suggested by Greg, who notes that “the third volume is occasionally found alone in a contemporary binding.” Greg adds, however, that “the great majority of copies of the third volume are appended to some issue of the second” (3:1080). Based on Greg’s description of the second and third volumes, the STC considers volume 2 and volume 3 to be a single work. In addition, because the new material in volume 3 composes the majority of the 1640 collection, the STC considers the 1640 collection (STC 14754) to be a separate work from the 1631 collection (STC 14753.5), rather than simply a reissue of it. Following this logic, DEEP also treats volume 2 and volume 3 as a single work, and it treats the 1631 and 1640 collections as separate works in separate editions, with the individual plays in them therefore issued twice.

Tabor concludes that the masque was printed in four phases from late January through late March, resulting in four impressions in which different formes were printed in different numbers of copies and from varying amounts of standing type. DEEP treats these four impressions as separate editions of the masque (even though, strictly speaking, an edition occurs when a work was printed from a new setting of type; see Tanselle 1975): first impression (DEEP 826); second impression (DEEP 827); third impression (DEEP 828); fourth impression (DEEP 829-831). In the third and fourth impressions, Tabor argues that copies of sheet D were printed by both Norton and probably Nicholas Okes (150-156). Tabor identifies two states of the title page in the fourth impression: 1c1 and 1c2 (see the description of Variants above). The masque itself was first performed on Feb 3, 1634, so the title page dates follow the legal reckoning, in which the start of the new year began on Mar 25. There was also a second performance of the masque on Feb 13, 1634, at Merchant Taylors’ Hall (Tabor 2018, 110-11). Finally, the bookseller Thomas Walkley was paid £5 by the Inns of Court, apparently to act as a middleman between the Inns and the publisher William Cooke (Tabor 2018, 111, 184).",None,before the Court;Whitehall;,,,,,,,,,836,836,Gentleman;of Gray's Inn,,"Cooke, William","Norton, John (2)",,"Okes, Nicholas; Norton, John (2)","Cooke, William",,1634 [Feb 3],Masque,"829; 830 ",,,494,"Shirley, James",488c,4,4,Occasional;Nonprofessional;University/Inns of Court,Inns of Court; Occasional,No,"There are two states of the title page due to a press variant [a1r] and two states of the paratextual material due to the insertion of a leaf.

(2) There are also two states of the paratextual material due to the insertion of a leaf with a speech delivered at the second performance of the masque on Feb 13, 1634.

Tabor concludes that the masque was printed in four phases from late January through late March, resulting in four impressions in which different formes were printed in different numbers of copies and from varying amounts of standing type. DEEP treats these four impressions as separate editions of the masque (even though, strictly speaking, an edition occurs when a work was printed from a new setting of type; see Tanselle 1975): first impression (DEEP 826); second impression (DEEP 827); third impression (DEEP 828); fourth impression (DEEP 829-831). In the third and fourth impressions, Tabor argues that copies of sheet D were printed by both Norton and probably Nicholas Okes (150-156). Tabor identifies two states of the title page in the fourth impression: 1c1 and 1c2 (see the description of Variants above). The masque itself was first performed on Feb 3, 1634, so the title page dates follow the legal reckoning, in which the start of the new year began on Mar 25. There was also a second performance of the masque on Feb 13, 1634, at Merchant Taylors’ Hall (Tabor 2018, 110-11). Finally, the bookseller Thomas Walkley was paid £5 by the Inns of Court, apparently to act as a middleman between the Inns and the publisher William Cooke (Tabor 2018, 111, 184).",None,before the Court;Whitehall;,,,,,,,,,3228,,of Gray's Inn,,"Cooke, William","Norton, John (2)",,"Okes, Nicholas; Norton, John (2)","Cooke, William",,1634 [Feb 3],Masque,"830; 831 ",,,494,"Shirley, James",488c,4,4,Occasional;Nonprofessional;University/Inns of Court,Inns of Court; Occasional,No,"There are two states of the title page due to a press variant [a1r] and two states of the paratextual material due to the insertion of a leaf.

One theory is that copies of the edition may have been sold as a supplement to Jonson’s 1616 Works (DEEP 5074-5075). Alternatively, copies of the collection, but also of the individual plays in it, may have been distributed as private gifts by Jonson. In a letter to William Cavendish, the Earl of Newcastle, Jonson writes that he is sending the earl a copy of The Devil Is an Ass soon after it was printed, after having earlier sent him a copy of Bartholomew Fair (Herford and Simpson 1925 1:211). It is also possible that the plays were intended to be sold separately, despite the use of continuous signatures in the collection and the use of continuous pagination in Bartholomew Fair and The Devil Is an Ass. Another possibility is that Jonson prevented copies from being sold by the publisher, Robert Allott, and likewise prevented other works from being printed for the collection in 1631, because of Jonson’s dissatisfaction with John Beale’s printing of the three plays in it. The three plays in the collection were issued again in 1640, with a general title page printed on the blank A1r of this edition, and with additional plays and poems in what is called volume 3 of Jonson's Works (DEEP 5124-5125.5). Because of the inclusion of this new material, STC considers the 1640 collection (STC 14754) to be a separate work from the 1631 collection (STC 14753.5), rather than simply a reissue of it. Following this logic, DEEP also treats the two collections as separate works in separate editions, with the individual plays in them therefore issued twice.

Tabor concludes that the masque was printed in four phases from late January through late March, resulting in four impressions in which different formes were printed in different numbers of copies and from varying amounts of standing type. DEEP treats these four impressions as separate editions of the masque (even though, strictly speaking, an edition occurs when a work was printed from a new setting of type; see Tanselle 1975): first impression (DEEP 826); second impression (DEEP 827); third impression (DEEP 828); fourth impression (DEEP 829-831). In the third and fourth impressions, Tabor argues that copies of sheet D were printed by both Norton and probably Nicholas Okes (150-156). Tabor identifies the state of the title page in the third impression as 1b. The masque itself was first performed on Feb 3, 1634, so the title page dates follow the legal reckoning, in which the start of the new year began on Mar 25. There was also a second performance of the masque on Feb 13, 1634, at Merchant Taylors’ Hall (Tabor 2018, 110-11). Finally, the bookseller Thomas Walkley was paid £5 by the Inns of Court, apparently to act as a middleman between the Inns and the publisher William Cooke (Tabor 2018, 111, 184).",None,before the Court;Whitehall;,,,,,,,,,3227,830,Gentleman,,"Cooke, William","Norton, John (2)",,"Okes, Nicholas; Norton, John (2)","Cooke, William",,1634 [Feb 3],Masque,,,,494,"Shirley, James","488a,b",3,3,Occasional;Nonprofessional;University/Inns of Court,Inns of Court; Occasional,No,,[152],"Shirley, James",488.0,The Triumph of Peace,,488,2423,Masque,Masque,masque,1633,1634 [Feb 3],1634,1634.0,n/a,n/a,4 quarto impressions,,,"Jan 24, 1634: Entered to William Cooke: ""The Maske of the four Inns of Co^rt. w^th the Sceane as it is to be p^rsented before his Ma^ty. at white hall the third of ffebr: next"".

Claudius Tiberius Nero had previously been entered to and published by Francis Burton, and it was one of several titles that that were apparently acquired by Budge at some point following Burton's death in 1617. After Budge died in 1625, the Stationers' Court ordered on Aug 1, 1626, that the titles he owned be entered to to John Parker. Parker, though, ""resigned his estat in m^r Budges Copies"" on Sep 4, 1626, at which point Budge's copies were then ""entred to mr Allott"" (Jackson 1957, 188, 189), including ""The Tragedye of Nero.""

Tabor concludes that the masque was printed in four phases from late January through late March, resulting in four impressions in which different formes were printed in different numbers of copies and from varying amounts of standing type. DEEP treats these four impressions as separate editions of the masque (even though, strictly speaking, an edition occurs when a work was printed from a new setting of type; see Tanselle 1975): first impression (DEEP 826); second impression (DEEP 827); third impression (DEEP 828); fourth impression (DEEP 829-831). Tabor identifies two states of the title page in the first impression: in state 1a1a, the “O” in “OF” in line 3 is sound; in state 1a1b, the “O” is battered. These title-page states can be differentiated from state 1a2 in the second impression by the “T” in the top line. In states 1a1a and 1a1b, the “T” is nearer to the “I” below; in state 1a2, the “T” is nearer to the “V” below. The masque itself was first performed on Feb 3, 1634, so the title page dates follow the legal reckoning, in which the start of the new year began on Mar 25. There was also a second performance of the masque on Feb 13, 1634, at Merchant Taylors’ Hall (Tabor 2018, 110-11). Finally, the bookseller Thomas Walkley was paid £5 by the Inns of Court, apparently to act as a middleman between the Inns and the publisher William Cooke (Tabor 2018, 111, 184).",None,before the Court;Whitehall;,,,,,,,,,3227,,Gentleman;of Gray's Inn,"Cooke, William","Cooke, William","Norton, John (2)",,"Norton, John (2)","Cooke, William",,1634 [Feb 3],Masque,,,,494,"Shirley, James","488a,b",1,1,Occasional;Nonprofessional;University/Inns of Court,Inns of Court; Occasional,No,,[152],"Shirley, James",488.0,The Triumph of Peace,,488,2423,Masque,Masque,masque,1633,1634 [Feb 3],1634,1634.0,n/a,n/a,4 quarto impressions,,,"Jan 24, 1634: Entered to William Cooke: ""The Maske of the four Inns of Co^rt. w^th the Sceane as it is to be p^rsented before his Ma^ty. at white hall the third of ffebr: next"".

Following Allott's death in 1635, his copies were assigned to John Legat (2) and Andrew Crooke (1) on Jul 1, 1637, but the play assigned to Allott in 1626 was erroneously believed to be Gwinne's Latin play Nero, which had instead been entered and published by Edward Blount in 1603.

The 1626 assignment in the Stationers' Registers of ""The Tragedye of Nero"" from John Budge to Robert Allott was probably for this play rather than Matthew Gwinne's Nero (DEEP 1186-1189). Claudius Tiberius Nero had previously been entered to and published by Francis Burton, and it was one of several titles that that were apparently acquired by Budge at some point following Burton's death in 1617. After Budge died in 1625, the Stationers' Court ordered on Aug 1, 1626, that the titles he owned be entered to to John Parker. Parker, though, ""resigned his estat in m^r Budges Copies"" on Sep 4, 1626, at which point Budge's copies were then ""entred to mr Allott"" (Jackson 1957, 188, 189), including ""The Tragedye of Nero."" Following Allott's death in 1635, his copies were assigned to John Legat (2) and Andrew Crooke (1) on Jul 1, 1637, but the play assigned to Allott in 1626 was erroneously believed to be Gwinne's Latin play Nero, which had instead been entered and published by Edward Blount in 1603.

Claudius Tiberius Nero had previously been entered to and published by Francis Burton, and it was one of several titles that that were apparently acquired by Budge at some point following Burton's death in 1617. After Budge died in 1625, the Stationers' Court ordered on Aug 1, 1626, that the titles he owned be entered to to John Parker.

Tabor concludes that the masque was printed in four phases from late January through late March, resulting in four impressions in which different formes were printed in different numbers of copies and from varying amounts of standing type. DEEP treats these four impressions as separate editions of the masque (even though, strictly speaking, an edition occurs when a work was printed from a new setting of type; see Tanselle 1975): first impression (DEEP 826); second impression (DEEP 827); third impression (DEEP 828); fourth impression (DEEP 829-831). Tabor identifies the state of the title page in the second impression as 1a2; it can be differentiated from the earlier states in the first impression by the “T” in the top line. In state 1a2, the “T” is nearer to the “V” below; in states 1a1a and 1a1b, the “T” is nearer to the “I” below. The masque itself was first performed on Feb 3, 1634, so the title page dates follow the legal reckoning, in which the start of the new year began on Mar 25. There was also a second performance of the masque on Feb 13, 1634, at Merchant Taylors’ Hall (Tabor 2018, 110-11).

Tabor concludes that the masque was printed in four phases from late January through late March, resulting in four impressions in which different formes were printed in different numbers of copies and from varying amounts of standing type. DEEP treats these four impressions as separate editions of the masque (even though, strictly speaking, an edition occurs when a work was printed from a new setting of type; see Tanselle 1975): first impression (DEEP 826); second impression (DEEP 827); third impression (DEEP 828); fourth impression (DEEP 829-831). In the third and fourth impressions, Tabor argues that copies of sheet D were printed by both Norton and probably Nicholas Okes (150-156). Tabor identifies two states of the title page in the fourth impression: 1c1 and 1c2 (see the description of Variants above). The masque itself was first performed on Feb 3, 1634, so the title page dates follow the legal reckoning, in which the start of the new year began on Mar 25. There was also a second performance of the masque on Feb 13, 1634, at Merchant Taylors’ Hall (Tabor 2018, 110-11). Finally, the bookseller Thomas Walkley was paid £5 by the Inns of Court, apparently to act as a middleman between the Inns and the publisher William Cooke (Tabor 2018, 111, 184).",None,before the Court;Whitehall;,,,,,,,,,836,,Gentleman;of Gray's Inn,,"Cooke, William","Norton, John (2)",,"Okes, Nicholas; Norton, John (2)","Cooke, William",,1634 [Feb 3],Masque,"829; 831 ",,,494,"Shirley, James",488c,4,4,Occasional;Nonprofessional;University/Inns of Court,Inns of Court; Occasional,No,"There are two states of the title page due to a press variant [a1r] and two states of the paratextual material due to the insertion of a leaf.

(2) There are also two states of the paratextual material due to the insertion of a leaf with a speech delivered at the second performance of the masque on Feb 13, 1634.

Claudius Tiberius Nero had previously been entered to and published by Francis Burton, and it was one of several titles that that were apparently acquired by Budge at some point following Burton's death in 1617.

Parker, though, ""resigned his estat in m^r Budges Copies"" on Sep 4, 1626, at which point Budge's copies were then ""entred to mr Allott"" (Jackson 1957, 188, 189), including ""The Tragedye of Nero.""

(1) In the first state, some copies were apparently sold without Troilus and Cressida, which is also not listed in the edition’s “Catalogue.” Troilus was initially going to appear after Romeo and Juliet in the collection; on the original state of sheet 2g3.4, therefore, the last page of Romeo and Juliet was printed on 2g3r, and the first three pages of Troilus on 2g3v-2g4v. But because the printing of Troilus was interrupted and then delayed, the last page of Romeo was consequently reprinted on 2G1r, with the first page of Timon of Athens on 2G1v, and some copies were thus sold without any evidence of Troilus (see Rasmussen and West, nos. 117, 130, 211; SC 5090, 5103, 5146). (2) When Troilus was eventually printed, it was moved earlier in the edition and became the first play in the “Tragedies.” As a result, what had been sheet 2g3.4 was moved and became ^xχ². In this second state of the edition, the last page of Romeo is typically crossed out, as is the signature “gg3” [^xχ1r], and Troilus begins on ^xχ1v (see Rasmussen and West, no. 129; SC 5102). (3) In the third state of the edition, a cancel leaf for ^xχ1 was printed, apparently on the same sheet as the last page of Troilus [3¶1r, verso blank], in order to get rid of the misplaced, redundant page of Romeo. The cancel leaf has the Prologue for Troilus on its recto and the first page of the play, reprinted from a new setting of type, on its verso.",None,None,,,,,,c36a,c36a,36,2430,,Master,,,,,"Jaggard, William; Jaggard, Isaac","Aspley, William; Blount, Edward; Smethwick, John; Jaggard, Isaac",,n/a,n/a,,,"The Tempest; The Two Gentlemen of Verona; The Merry Wives of Windsor; Measure for Measure; The Comedy of Errors; Much Ado About Nothing; Love's Labor's Lost; A Midsummer Night's Dream; The Merchant of Venice (The Jew of Venice); As You Like It; The Taming of the Shrew; All's Well That Ends Well; Twelfth Night, or What You Will; The Winter's Tale; King John; Richard the Second; 1 Henry the Fourth; 2 Henry the Fourth; Henry the Fifth; 1 Henry the Sixth; 2 Henry the Sixth (The First Part of the Contention betwixt the Two Famous Houses of York and Lancaster); 3 Henry the Sixth (The True Tragedy of Richard Duke of York and the Good King Henry the Sixth); Richard the Third; Henry the Eighth (All Is True); Troilus and Cressida; Coriolanus; Titus Andronicus; Romeo and Juliet; Timon of Athens; Julius Caesar; Macbeth; Hamlet, Prince of Denmark; King Lear; Othello, the Moor of Venice; Antony and Cleopatra; Cymbeline, King of Britain ",884,"Shakespeare, William",,1,,Collection;Adult Professional;Professional,Collection of Adult Professional Plays,No,,[74],"Shakespeare, William",2036.0,"Comedies, Histories, and Tragedies",,None,n/a,not in Annals,n/a,not in BritDrama,1623,n/a,,,n/a,n/a,2 folios,,,"Nov 8, 1623: Entered to Edward Blount and Isaac Jaggard: ""M^r.

For the 1640 collection, a general title page naming Meighen as publisher was printed (by Alsop and Fawcet) on the blank A1r of the 1631 edition. Also added to the 1640 collection were additional plays and poems in what is now called volume 3 of Jonson's Works, which was printed by Dawson for Walkley. Before it was available for sale, however, its sheets were seized from Walkley by Andrew Crooke (1), John Benson, and John Parker (Benson was in debt to Parker). This seizure led Walkley to file a bill in Chancery in January 1641 against Crooke and Benson, who had entered several works by Jonson in the Stationers’ Registers in 1639-1640, and therefore had a competing claim to some of the works in volume 3. Walkley eventually managed to regain possession of the printed sheets of volume 3 and was therefore its only publisher (Greg 3:1081; Giddens 2014). Happé 2014 argues that Walkley issued copies volume 3 separately, albeit without a title page or any paratextual material, a theory earlier suggested by Greg, who notes that “the third volume is occasionally found alone in a contemporary binding.” Greg adds, however, that “the great majority of copies of the third volume are appended to some issue of the second” (3:1080). Based on Greg’s description of the second and third volumes, the STC considers volume 2 and volume 3 to be a single work. In addition, because the new material in volume 3 composes the majority of the 1640 collection, the STC considers the 1640 collection (STC 14754) to be a separate work from the 1631 collection (STC 14753.5), rather than simply a reissue of it. Following this logic, DEEP also treats volume 2 and volume 3 as a single work, and it treats the 1631 and 1640 collections as separate works in separate editions, with the individual plays in them therefore issued twice.

For the 1640 collection, a general title page naming Meighen as publisher was printed (by Alsop and Fawcet) on the blank A1r of the 1631 edition. Also added to the 1640 collection were additional plays and poems in what is now called volume 3 of Jonson's Works, which was printed by Dawson for Walkley. Before it was available for sale, however, its sheets were seized from Walkley by Andrew Crooke (1), John Benson, and John Parker (Benson was in debt to Parker). This seizure led Walkley to file a bill in Chancery in January 1641 against Crooke and Benson, who had entered several works by Jonson in the Stationers’ Registers in 1639-1640, and therefore had a competing claim to some of the works in volume 3. Walkley eventually managed to regain possession of the printed sheets of volume 3 and was therefore its only publisher (Greg 3:1081; Giddens 2014). Happé 2014 argues that Walkley issued copies volume 3 separately, albeit without a title page or any paratextual material, a theory earlier suggested by Greg, who notes that “the third volume is occasionally found alone in a contemporary binding.” Greg adds, however, that “the great majority of copies of the third volume are appended to some issue of the second” (3:1080). Based on Greg’s description of the second and third volumes, the STC considers volume 2 and volume 3 to be a single work. In addition, because the new material in volume 3 composes the majority of the 1640 collection, the STC considers the 1640 collection (STC 14754) to be a separate work from the 1631 collection (STC 14753.5), rather than simply a reissue of it. Following this logic, DEEP also treats volume 2 and volume 3 as a single work, and it treats the 1631 and 1640 collections as separate works in separate editions, with the individual plays in them therefore issued twice.
