The PrefaceFit be true, what Aristotle (a) that great Philo/opher, and (a) Poet.

Father of Criticipm, has own'd, that the Stage might in “”

ftruct Mankind better than Philofophy it felf. If Homer

2was thought by Horace (b) to exceed Crantor and Chry

ftippus, in the Precepts of Morality; and if Sophocles and

Euripides, obtained the title of Wife, for their Dramatich Writing,

certainly it can be no difcredit for any man to own him/elf a lover of

that fort of Poetry, which has been filed, The School of Wertue

and good Manners? I know there have been many fevere Cato's

2who have endeavoured all they could, to decry the ufe of the Stage;

but thofe who pleafe to conful; the Writings of the Learned Dr.Ga

ger, Albericus Gentiles, Sir Philip Sidney, Sir Richard Baker,

Heywood, the Poet and Aëtor both in one; not to mention feveral of

thers, as the famong Scaliger, Monfigur Hedelin, Rapin, &c. will

find their Objections fully an/vered, and the Diverfion of the Theatre

fufficiently vindicated. I /hall therefore without any Apology, pub

lickly own, that my inclination to this kind of Poetry in particular,

has lead me not onely to the view of moff of our Modern Represen

tations on the Stage, but alo to the purchafe of all the Plays I could

meet with, in the English Tongue; and indeed I have been Maffer

of above Nine Hundred and Fourscore Englijh Plays and Masques,

befides Drolls and Interludes; and having read most of them, I

think am able to give fome tolerable account of the greateff part of

our Dramatick Writers, and their Productions.

The general Ufe of Catalogues, and the effeem they are in at pre

fent, is fo well known, that it were to waite Paper to expatiate on

if : I./hall therefore omely acquaint my Reader, that I defgned this

Catalogue for their# 2who may have the fame religh# Dram

has been Publish't in our Language, as likewife to receive fome Re

marks on the Writings of particular Men. -

* The Reasons that induc’d me to the publishing this Catalogue,

2pere thefe : Firft, That the1: Catalogues were out of Print.

Secondly, That they were all of them full of groß Errours. Third

ly, That they were not, as I thought, Jo Methodical as this which I

have now made; wherein the Reader will #nd the Imperfections I

obferved in the former Cataloguss,amendedja!the Plays which have

been Printed fince 1680, to this prefent time, added; with feveral

Remarks, which whether or no obferved, I cannot tell, but never pub

liffhed by any Author till now. ... . .

To begin then first with the Errours of former Catalogues, they

are chiefly Five: * * ...' -

First, There were Plays inferted in all of them, which were never

in Print;, as for Brevity's fake, to give one infance for many, The

Amorous Widow, and Wanton Wife, a Comedy. This is a

Stock-Play, and was written (if not Tram/lated from Mollieres

George Dandin) by Mr. Batterton.

Secondly, Some Plays were omitted, which had been Printed ve.

ry long ago; as, Cola's Fury, and Lirenda's Misery. Written by

Henry Burkhead. The Religious Rebel; and/everal others.

Thirdly, Two Titles which belong'd to one and the fame Play,

were frequently printed, as if they had been two distinct Plays; as

The Constant Maid, or Love will find out the Way. Written

by Shirly. Ferex and Porex, or the Tragedy of Gorboduc.

Written by Sacvile and Norton; with many others. *

Fourthly, Thefame Title was often time; printed twice, and that

feperately, is if writ by two feveral perfons; and fometimes a£rib'd

to different Authors likewife; when it was onely a new Edition of

the fame Play; as for Example, Patient Griffel was again re

seated under the Title of Patient Griffel Old. And Appius and

W#. , written by Webster, is afterwards afcrib'd to T.B.

though as the deceafed Comedian Mr. Carthwright, a Book/eller by

Profeffion, told me,£ the old Play Reprinted, and Corrected

by the above-mentioned Mr. Batterton; with feveral others.

Fifthly, Some Plays are a/cribed to one Author which were writ

by another; as Celum Britanicum, a Ma/que , is to Sir William

Davenant, though it was written by Carew and Jones. Which

fault is rather to#imputed to the Publishers of Sir William Dave

nant's Workes, 1673, in Folio, than to the Compilers of the former

w -. - Cata

-The Preface,

Catalogue; who are more excufable than Mr. Phillips in his Ca

talogue of Poets, called, Theatrum Poetarum;’ and his Tran

(criber Winstanley, who has follow'd him at a venture in his Cha

raēters of the Drammatick Writers, even to a word, in his Lives of

the English Poets. Both thefe Authors through a miffake of the

Method of former Catalogues, and their Ignorance in what Pieceseach

Drammatick Author had published, have fallen into very great Er.

rours, as I am going to Jhew.

The first Catalogue that was printed of any worth, was that Col.

letted by Kirkman, a London Book/eller, whofe chief dealing was

in Plays; which was published 1671, at the end of Nicomede, a

Tragi-comedy, Tran|lated #om the French of Mönfieu Corneille.

This Catalogue was printed Alphabetically, as to the Names of the

Plays, but promiscuously as to thofe of the Authors, (Shakspeare,

Fletcher, Johnson, and fome others of the moff voluminous Authors

excepted) each Authors Name being placed over againft each Play

that he writ, and fill repeated with every feveral Play, till a new

Author came on. About Nine rears after, the Publiher of this Ca

talogue, Reprinted Kirkman's with emendations, but in the fame

Form. Notwith tanding the Anonimous Plays, one would think

eafly diffinguishable by the want of an Author: Name before them; .

yet have both thefe charitable kindGentlemenfound Fathers for them, .

by ranking each under the Authors Name that preceded them in the

#: Catalogues. Thus Charles the Firt & placed by them both

to Nabbs; becau/e in both the former Catal gues it followed his Co

vent-Garden: and for the fame reafon Cupid's Whirligig is afori

bed by both of them to Goff; becaufe it follow'd his Careless Shep-.

heardes; and/o of many others, too tedious to repeat. . .

To prevent the like miffake for the future, and to make the Cata-.

logue more u/ful, I wholly altered the form : And yet that I might

pleafe thofe who delight in old Paths, I have Tran/cribed the fame as

a Second Part, after the former way of Alphabet, though more Methodically than formerly, as I/hall flew prefently. f ..

In this New Catalogue the Reader will find the whole to be di

vided into Three diffin: Claffes. In the firff I have placed the

Declared Authours, Alphabetically, according to their Sirnames, in .

Italick Characters: and placed the Plays each Authour has written,

underneath in Roman Letters, which are rank'd Alphabetically like

2wife; fo that the Reader may at one glance view each Authours La

hours. Over again/f each Play, is plac'd as formerly a Letter to in

dicate .

dicate the nature of the Dramma: as C. for Comedy: 7; for Tra

gedy. T.C. for Tragi-comedy. P. for Pattoral. O. for Opera:

I for Interlude. F for Farce. , - .

And for the better ufe of thofe who may de/gm a Colle#ion, I have :

added to the Letter the Volume allo, (according to the best Edition

as Fol. 4°. 8°. against each Play that I have feen. And for their

further help; where a Play is not printed fingle, the Reader will

he£by a Letter or Figure to the bottom of the Colume, 2where

he will meet with Infructions how it is to be found; I mean, with

what Poems or other Plays it is printed, the rear when, the Place

where, and the best Edition oftach Book / mentioned.

This may feem# at first fight, but may poffibly be no

longer thought fo, when I/hall have acquainted my Reader, that

2when I was making my Colle&tion, I found feveral Plays and

Masks, bound up with other Poems, which by the name were farce

known to the generality of Book/ellers: as for infance, Sir Robert

Howard’s# Lady; Daniel's Philotas; Carew's Coelum

Britanicum; Shirley's Triumph of Beauty ; , with infinite o

thers. But two Plays I might particularly mention, both taken no

tice of in former Catalogue, to wit,£ and Hegio, a Paffe.

ral; and Deorum Dona, a Ma/que; both which were written

by Baron, and were wholly unknown to all the Book/ellers of whom

I happened to enquire, and which I could never have found but by

chance; they being printed in a Romance called, The Cyprian

Academy, in 8°. The fame I might add of TheČ' ( a

Play which was never in any Catalogue before, and was tranjlated

from Ariftophanes's Nubes by Stanley, and printed with his

History of Philosophy, Fol. Lond, 1655. and now newly re

printed; and of feveral others) but that I muff haffen back to

give an Account of the two other Divifions of my Catalogue. The

one of which contains thofe Plays whofe Authors difcover them/elves

but by halves, and that to their intimate Friends, by two Letters

only in the Title-Page, or the bottom of their Epistle; and in the

lafi Degree are plac'd all Anonemous Plays; and this compleats theFirst Part.

The Second Part contains the Catalogue Reprinted in an exači

Alphabetical wanner, according to the forms of Dictionaries, the

Authors Names being here left out as fuperfluons; and again/f each

Play is a Figure to direfit fou to the Page where you may find it in

the Firff Pari. -

the other two conducing to Pleafare at leaf, if not to Profit likewife. "

... The First is toprevent my Reader being impos' on by crafiy Book

ton'; The Debauchee, another of Brome's; The Match in

Newgate, another of Marfton's; with many more, too tedious to

repeat. By thefe Remarks the Reader will find The Fond Lady,

the Poets ability in working up a£, by comparing his Play

with the# Story. I have not been fålarge 4nd full in this

as I intend hereafter, not having by me feveral Chronicles and

Novels, which might have been fabfervient to my Defgn, as the

Chronicles of particular Countries, and the Novels of Cynthio

For this reafon, in #. Note: on everal Plays which I have taken

iotice of, I have been forc'd to refer to the Chronicles of a Country in

Meneral, not have had time or opportunity to make an exact fearch

what Hitorian the Author has chiefly follow'd, or what Author has

The Preface.

of our Plays have been by our Modern Poets. But none certainly

as attempted it with greater confidence, than he that files him/elf

the Author of The Gountry Innocence, or The Chambermaid

turn'd Quaker: a Play which was affed and printed in the year

1677 but fir/f publih'd many years before by its genuine Author

t. Brewer.

It is not to those of our own Nation only, but to Forreigners allo,

that I have endeavour'd to do juffice. For that reafon I have re

mark'd (as far as my knowledge would permit me) what has bees

tran/lated or/$ollen from Taffo, Guarini, Bonarelli, Garnier, Scar

ron, both the Corneilles, Molliere, Rucine, Quinault, and others

both French and Italians. Neither have I omitted, tomy power, to

do right likewife to the ancient Greek and Latin Poets, that have

2written in this way, as Sophocles, Euripides, AEschylus, Arifto

phanes, Seneca, Plautus, Terence, cre. Imit acknowledge, with

regret, that thefe are not fo well known to me as I could wifth; but

yet as far as my power, I have endeavour'd to do right to their Me

mories. But I dare effire my Reader, that for the future it /hall be

more my buffneff to obtain a more intimate acquaintance with all

2worthy Strangers, as well as with my own: fo that if this

6Trifle hould have the fortune to appear abroad a jecond time, it hall

be more compleat and correà, than the hortner of the time, and my . .

finall acquaintance with Authors at# ent allow; the Catalogue be-,

ing in the Preß, and the firff (heet of it fet, before I thought of adding

thefe Remarks. ".

But before I quit this Paper, I defire my Readers leave to take a

View of Plagiaries in general, and that we may obferve the diffe

rent proceedings between the Ancients and our Modern Writers.

This Art has reign'd in all Ages, and is as ancient almoff as Learn

ing it felf. If we take it in its general Acceptation, and according

to the extent of the word,we fall find the moff Eminent Poets (not to

move excentrically and out four prefent Sphere)are liable to the charge

and imputation of Plagiary. Homer him/elf is not fee from it, f

ave willgive credit to Suidas, AElian, and others : and that the in

vention of the Iliad is not wholly due to him, feems to be confirm'd by

the Teffimony of Ariftotle, who mentions a fmall Iliad, which was Poet. c.23.

2"ritten before his was produced. But whether there be any ground,

for this Opinion,or nocertain it is that the moff eminent Poets amongft

the Romans, I mean Virgil and Ovid, made affe of the Grecian

Flecknoe did, from Mollieres Les Precieuses Ridicules: howe

ver, I hope he will allow that thefe Expreffions better fait with the

Spiritual Temper of thofe French Dam/els, than with the known

Gravity of the Spanish Ladies. I hope Mr. Dryden will pardon

that Mr. Dryden has many Excellencies which far out-weigh his

Faults; he is an excellent Critick, and a good Poet, his Stile is

(mooth and fluent, and he has written well, both in Ver/e and Profe.

I own that I admire him, as much as any man;. -

But at the fame time I cannot but blame him for taxing others with

Althó Icondemn Plagiaries, yet I would not be thought to reckon

as fuch either Translators, or thofe who own what they borrow from

the worst of Plagiaries, who/teal from the Writings#.thofe of our own

Nation. Becau/e he that borrows from the worff Forreign Author,

may poffibly import, even among# a great deal of trafh, fomewhat

of value: whereas the former makes us pay extortion for that which

awas our own before. - . . . . .

For this reafon I muff diffinguih one of our bef Comick Writers,

from the common Herd of Translators; fince though proportionate M. shad.

to his Writings, none of our modern Poets have borrow'd lef; yet well.

has he dealt ingenuouffy with the World, and if I miffake hot, has

publickly own d, either in his Prefaces, or Prologues, all that be

has borrow'd ; 2which I the rather take notice of, becau/e it is folit

tle praffi/ed in this Age. Ta true indeed, what is borrow'd from

Shakspeare or Fletcher, is usually own'd by our Poets, becauß every.

one would be able to convić them of Theft, Jhould they endeavour to .

conceal it. But in what has been tolen from Authors not fo gene.

our Poets playing the parts of Bathyllus to Virgil, and robbing them

of that Fame, which is as juffly their due, as the Reward the Em.
