CHAPTER XIII
MASQUE AND PASTORAL
I. MASQUE.
The titles of early editions of masques, pageants and entertainments are
given in Greg's List of Masques; and, less fully, in Fleay's English Drama.
The chief works on the masque have been mentioned already in the biblio-
graphy to chap. 1 (Ben Jonson). See, also, bibliography to chap. x (The
Elizabethan Theatre). In chronological order, they are: Soergel, A. , 1882;
Evans, H. A. , 1897; Brotanek, R. , 1902; and Reyher, A. , 1909. Reyher's
monograph, the most elaborate treatise on the English masque that has yet
appeared, is a contribution to English literary history not less remarkable
than Castelain's Ben Jonson: l'Homme et l'Euvre. Reyher, in his
Bibliographie des ballets de 1603 à 1640, collects under each masque exact
references to all contemporary notices in the state papers, audit office
accounts, Nichols's Progresses and other places. His Index Bibliographique
is very full; to it should be added the bibliography in Schelling's Elizabethan
## p. 488 (#506) ############################################

Bibliography
Drama, vol. 11, pp. 520-3. The fullest account of Jonson's masques, with the
exception of that scattered up and down Les Masques Anglais, is Castelain's
chap. ix, which has the advantage over Reyher of treating Ben Jonson's
work consecutively.
Of English works, see in Ward list of Jonson's masques (vol. II, pp. 393–7);
Schelling, chap. xv, on the English Masque furnishes a full and suggestive
review of the whole field. It cannot be said that Fleay's conjectures
and suggestions have yet received from scholars all the study they merit.
Many rare masques are reprinted in Nichols, J. , The Progresses &c. of
Queen Elizabeth, 1823, and The Progresses &c. of King James, 1828. In
the former is a full account of Sidney's Lady of May.
For earlier entertainments, see bibliography to vol. v, chap. v (Early
English Comedy), ante.
Francis Beaumont.
The Masque of the Inner Temple and Grayes Inne: Grayes Inne and the
Inner Temple, presented before his Majestie, the Queenes Majestie, the

with a single voyce to the Lute or Base-Viall. 1614.
This is known as the Squires' Masque. The masques are rptd in the
modern editions of Campion's works by Bullen, A. H. , 1889, and by
Vivian, P. , 1909.

A. General Authorities.
Pastoral poetry has been thoroughly treated in Greg, W. W. , Pastoral
Poetry and Pastoral Drama, a Literary Inquiry with Special Reference to
the Pre-Restoration Stage in England, 1906. To Greg's bibliography, add
that in Schelling's Elizabethan Drama, vol. II, pp. 523-6 (1908); Schelling's
chap. xvi notices all surviving pastoral plays of any consequence. Greg's
List of Plays, includes Pastoral Plays. The bibliographies appended to
