TO THE RIGHT HONORABLE THOMAS, Earl of Ossory.

My Lord,

This piece being made English in your Honors Service, and by your Command, having already passed the Suffrage of the Stage, and now made more publique by passing the Press, I thought it my Duty (in the Authors absence) to present it to your Honor: I shall not say anything of the PLAY, because I had no hand in it; but I have made bold to that, to add a Catalogue of all the English Plays hitherto printed. I have done it as perfectly as I can, in respect that nothing which is imperfect ought to be presented to your Honor. If you accept and peruse it, it is the utmost ambition of

Your Honors humble servant, Fra: Kirkman.
