This play, previously unknown, is here printed with an introduction and textual and illustrative notes by Bowers, who has made a very strong case for the Randolph authorship. The play is of unique interest because of the light that it throws on certain Randolph problems and because of the editor's exposition of the transcriber's methods of correction and revision as revealed in the manuscript itself.

Originally published in 1942.
