Rex platonicus.
Wake, Sir Isaac. 1575-1632. **G.4073.12 Rex platonicvs: sive, de potentissimi principis Iacobi Britanniarvm
regis, ad illustrissimam Academiam Oxoniensem, adventu, Aug. 27. anno. 1605. narratio. Oxoniz. Barnesius. 1607. (6), 140, (2) pp. 19¢cm., in 4s. On p. 18 is a reference to an interlude based on the story of Macbeth, which was acted before King James at Oxford in 1605. The favorable re- ception of this has been thought to have given Shakespeare the idea of writing his Macbeth. The title-page is slightly mutilated.
