The Quarto, and the various modern editions and translations of The Fatal Dowry have already been recorded in the opening pages of the Introduction. In the editions there noted of the collected works of Massinger will be found all the plays which bear his name. (Believe As You List appears only in Cunningham’s edition of Gifford and in the Mermaid Series’ Massinger.) Field’s two independent plays, Woman is a Weathercock (Q. 1612) and Amends for Ladies (Q’s. 1618, 1639), were reprinted by J.P. Collier, London, 1829. They are included in Thomas White’s Old English Dramas, London, 1830; in W.C. Hazlitt’s edition of Dodsley’s Old English Plays, London, Reeves and Turner, 1875; and in the Mermaid Series volume, Nero and Other Plays, with an Introduction by A.W. Verity, London and New York, 1888. All other extant dramas in which either Massinger or Field had a share may be found in any edition of the collected works of Beaumont & Fletcher, with the exception of Sir John van Olden Barnavelt, which appears in vol. II of Bullen’s Old Plays, London, Weyman and Sons, 1883.

The stage version of The Fatal Dowry by Sheil is printed in French’s Acting Edition, vol.9. Of the related plays, The Lady’s Trial and The Fair Penitent may be found in all editions of the collected works respectively of John Ford and Nicholas Rowe; The Fair Penitent is also published along with Rowe’s Jane Shore in the Belles Lettres Series, 1907. For The Insolvent, see The Dramatic Works of Aaron Hill, Esq., 2 vols., 1760. DER GRAF VON CHAROLAIS ein Trauerspiel von Richard Beer-Hofmann is printed by S. Fischer, Berlin, 1906.
