1700. The Pilgrim.
For the revival of Fletcher's play of The Pilgrim at Drury lane theatre
in 1700, Vanbrugh turned the original blank verse into prose and made some
additions to the mad scene. Dryden wrote a Prologue, an Epilogue, Song
of a Scholar and his Mistress, who being cross'd by their Friends, fell mad
for one another; and now first meet in Bedlam; and The Secular Masque.
The poet was given a benefit, but he himself did not benefit, as he died
shortly after the performance. The revised play with Dryden's additions
was not published until after his death.
The Pilgrim, a Comedy: as it is acted at the Theatre Royal, in Drury Lane.

Mr Dryden, just before his death, being the last of his Works. 1700.

butions have a separate pagination, and, in the other, they are paged on

Plays attributed to Dryden
Saintsbury has printed the following two plays as 'Doubtful Plays’ in
the eighth volume of his republication of Scott's edition of Dryden's Works:
The Mistaken Husband : a Comedie as it is acted by His Majesties Servants
at the Theatre-Royall. By a Person of Quality. 1675. (Bentley the
publisher says, in his address To the Reader, that Dryden added a scene
to this play when it was left with him. ]
The Mall or the Modish Lovers: a Comedy acted by His Majesties Servants.
1674. [The Dedication is signed J. D. , and Gosse suggests that this may
be the play mentioned by Pepys as translated by Dryden from the French
and called The Ladies à la mode (Diary, 15 Sept. 1668); but, as this was
unsuccessful, it is scarcely likely to have been printed seven years after-
wards. Moreover, the titles have not much in common. ]

• Opera' produced by Shadwell in 1673. This fact was first pointed out
by Lawrence, W. J. , in Anglia, March 1904, but no notice of this has
found its way into bibliographies. Sir Ernest Clarke, who had not seen
Lawrence's contribution to Anglia, discovered the fact independently
and explained it with fuller information in a letter to the Athenaeum
(25 August 1906).

Plays attributed to Dryden
Saintsbury has printed the following two plays as 'Doubtful Plays’ in
the eighth volume of his republication of Scott's edition of Dryden's Works:
The Mistaken Husband : a Comedie as it is acted by His Majesties Servants
at the Theatre-Royall. By a Person of Quality. 1675. (Bentley the
publisher says, in his address To the Reader, that Dryden added a scene
to this play when it was left with him. ]
The Mall or the Modish Lovers: a Comedy acted by His Majesties Servants.
1674. [The Dedication is signed J. D. , and Gosse suggests that this may
be the play mentioned by Pepys as translated by Dryden from the French
and called The Ladies à la mode (Diary, 15 Sept. 1668); but, as this was
unsuccessful, it is scarcely likely to have been printed seven years after-
wards. Moreover, the titles have not much in common. ]
