Cambyses Ring of [Persia

By Tuomas Preston

[c. 1584]

This play was licensed to John Allde (the father of the printer of this edition) between July, 1569, and July, 1570, and Sir J. A. H. Murray, im the ** Oxford English Dictionary,” assigns the date of writing to Ci 1860.:

The first edition probably appeared in 1570, shortly after its entry on the books of the Stationers’ Register. As far as at present known, this impression cannot be dated earlier than 1584, when Edward Allde succeeded

his father in business.

For what little 1s known of Preston consult “ The Dictionary of National Biography.”

Mr. J]. A. Herbert (of the Manuscript Department of the British Museum), after comparing this facsimile with the original, says that it

as ‘* very excellently reproduced, hardly the minutest fault to be found.”

JOHN S. FARMER.
