Reading edition
Lib. iii. Sat. xi. p. 225. ed. 1764.—“Orchestra” is an allusion to Sir J. Davies’s poem of that name.
Augustine Phillips, an actor contemporary with Kempe, has also been mentioned as “an author,” in consequence of the following entry in the Stationers’ Books:
“xxvito Maii [1595]
“Raffe Hancock Entred for his copie vnder the handes of the Wardens, Phillips his gigg of the slyppers.... vid.”
(Liber B. fol. 132 b.)
George Chalmers erroneously makes the date of this entry “1593,” Malone’s Shakespeare (by Boswell), iii. 469.
