Reprinted in 1688, this play may have been revived at this time. The edition refers to its being acted at the Duke's Theatre; the play was entered in the Term Catalogues, July 1688' [Van Lennep: The London Stage]. This version first appeared in 1678; Shadwell speaks in his dedicatory epistle of the 'inimitable hand of Shakespeare', adding with some condescension: 'Yet I can truly say, I have made it into a Play'.
