It will be seen that the authorship of nos. 2, 4, 5, 6 and 13 is differently
ascribed in different editions: in each case the earlier authority seems prefer-
able, and no. 2 would then be attributed to Cavyll, no. 4 to Baldwin, no. 5 to
Chaloner and nos. 6 and 13 to Baldwin. Nos. 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 of
part I and 20 and 23 of part II are not attributed to anyone except in Q 8,
which is of such late date as to possess little authority, although Niccols says,
'I have subscribed the names of all such as I could heare of. In the address
To the Nobilitie Q 2, Baldwin describes part II as "conteynyng as lytle of
myne owne, as the fyrst part doth of other men's. ' The obvious meaning of this
is that he wrote some of part II and a great deal of part I, and, therefore, it
seems reasonable to ascribe to him the two legends in part II (20 and 23) not
claimed for others, and the greater part of those unclaimed in part I, in which
nog. 4, 8, 11 are attributed to him without question and nos. 6 and 13 with
more or less uncertainty. Nos. 7 and 12 are set down to him by Niccols, so
far as his authority goes, and I am inclined to put all the unclaimed ones to
his credit except no. 17, the alliteration of which, as Trench has pointed out,
sets it aside from the rest. The general character of the versification bears
out this assumption.
In the second quarto, all the tragedies printed in Q 1 were included as the
first part, although Somerset is put out of its place in part II. In Q3 (1571),
this mistake is corrected, and nos. 25 and 27 (Shore's Wife and The Black-
smith) change places. Alterations are made in the prose links accordingly,
but otherwise there are only verbal changes.
