National Library of Scotland and Edinburgh University Library Copies of Plays in Greg's Bibliography of the English Printed Drama
by
Marion Linton

The following list is intended as an appendix to Greg's Bibliography of the English Printed Drama to the Restoration, showing the plays to be found in two Scottish libraries, the National Library of Scotland and Edinburgh University Library. Many of the National Library plays were acquired as recently as 1956 as part of the Bute Collection, of which the Shakespearean Quartos are described in the Bartlett and Pollard Census under the designation of Crichton Stuart. There were already, however, a considerable number of early plays in the library's general collections, many of them the gift of a member of Faculty, John Maitland Thomson, in 1912, when the National Library was still the Library of the Faculty of Advocates. Many of the University Library plays belong to the Shakespearean collection presented by J. O. Halliwell-Phillipps in the seventies of last century, but some of the most interesting come from the library of the poet William Drummond of Hawthornden.

The information given in each entry is in six parts.

1. The Greg number with, where necessary, letters, numbers and symbols showing edition, issue and variant state, but omitting A (which indicates a single edition) except where it is followed by a number or symbol.

2. The author's last name. Double authorship is shown by the two surnames linked by a hyphen, and this form is used also for author and translator. Plays written in collaboration by more than two authors are entered under the name of the first author with etc. For a play published anonymously or under initials, the author has been supplied when possible, the name being followed by a question mark when the attribution is doubtful. Otherwise the play is entered under the title or initial.

3. The short title in the form used by Greg. Plays with alternative titles are under the title of the edition concerned.

4. The date of the edition described.

5. The location of the copies. NLS indicates the general collections of the National Library, NLSB the Bute Collection, and EU the Edinburgh University Library.

6. A brief description, where necessary, of the condition of the copy, immediately following its location. All missing leaves are noted, including blank leaves, and all serious imperfections. Cropping has not been mentioned, except when it affects the text throughout; where only one or two leaves are cropped, they are noted as defective. Mounted leaves and inlaid copies have been mentioned. Leaves supplied in facsimile have been indicated by the abbreviation 'facs.' which should be understood as applying to all the missing leaves listed before it. The minus sign has been used for missing blank leaves, and 'wants' for all other missing leaves. The presence of blank leaves is noted, by the plus sign, only for blanks not in copies examined by Greg. Aberrations in binding are not invariably noted, but have been mentioned sometimes, when they seemed of special interest. When there are two copies in one collection, they have been shown as '1-2', unless they require different descriptions, when Greg has been followed in the use of a vertical dividing line, e.g. NLS (1,—A1|2, wants B4). The same principle has been followed for more than two copies.

The abbreviations used are mostly as in Greg. The following are the most common.

  • def. = defective
  • facs. = supplied in facsimile
  • impt. = imprint
  • mtd. = mounted
  • s.-n. = side-notes

I am grateful to the authorities of the Edinburgh University Library for giving me every facility to examine the plays there, and in particular to Dr. Robert Donaldson (now of Glasgow University Library) for his very generous co-operation, but for any errors and omissions in the descriptions of the Edinburgh Library plays, as in the National Library copies, I am solely responsible.

Note 1. (110e) This copy confirms Greg's suggestion that in the copy in the Huntington Library, the only one he had seen, the title has been supplied from the previous edition. The transcription of the title of this copy is as follows:—
THE | Spanish Tragedie: | Contayning the lamen- | table end of Don Horatio, and Bel-imperia: | with the pittifull death of olde | Hieronimo. | Newly corrected, amended, and enlarged with new | additions of the Painters part, and others: as it | hath of late been diuers times acted. | [device] | Imprinted at London by W.W. for | T.Pauier, and are to be solde at his | shoppe at the entrance | into the Exchange. | 1603.
The verso is blank and the title is conjugate.
[_]
Note 2. (204b) This copy is described by Greg in volume IV of the Bibliography, p.1647.
[_]
Note 3. The general title has been prefixed to a collection of separate editions of seven of Ford's plays, namely The Lover's Melancholy, 1629, [420A*], 'Tis Pity She's a Whore, 1633 [486A1], The Broken Heart, 1633 [480], Love's Sacrifice, 1633 [478], Perkin Warbeck, 1634 [491A*], The Fancies, 1638 [532] and The Lady's Trial, 1639 [555]. These are entered in the list of separate plays. There seems little doubt that this is a companion volume to the nonce collections of Marston and Chapman described by Greg and in the Pforzheimer Catalogue. The wording of the title corresponds exactly except for the author's name. The volume probably came to the Advocates' Library (as the National Library of Scotland then was) about the end of the 18th century, and it may be the volume sold at the Richard Wright Sale of 23rd April 1787. The contents correspond with those of a volume of Ford's plays described in the Wright sale catalogue, though the catalogue entry does not mention a general title. The only known copies of the Marston and Chapman collections, now broken up, are known to have been in the Wright sale. The Ford collection is in a brown leather binding, and has a coat of arms stamped in gold on the front and back covers. The arms, and the signature on the last page of Love's Sacrifice, are those of the 17th century antiquary Walter Chetwynd of Ingestre in Stafford-shire, and are perhaps a clue to the identity of the collector for whom all three volumes were bound.
