| Item Description: | Each play has special t.p. Reproduction of original in Huntington Library. The preface contains a discussion of the use of rime in dramatic verse, which occasioned Dryden's Essay of dramatick poesie. Howard replied in the preface to "The great favorite, or, The Duke of Lerma". "The Indian queen" is partly by Dryden. |
