Notes: 'Traces of Massinger's hand have been doubtfully suggested in such early works of Beaumont and Fletcher as the 'Scornful Lady', written about 1610 ... but there is little likelihood of Massinger's connection with Fletcher until late in 1613' [DNB]

A list of 'The Names of the Actors' follows title-page and precedes the main text.

The 'Scornful Lady', published in 1616 ... is an excellent comedy of English domestic life, and was very popular both before and after the Restoration'.
