FOOTNOTES:

[298] The scene, however, seems to be laid at Venice. The Rialto is mentioned in act i., and Venice is again spoken of in act iii. as where the transactions of the play are carried on.—Pegge.

[It may be added that there was never any Duke of Pisa, and that most of the names are Venetian.]
