Note 1 — THE COMPLETE PLAYS OF RICHARD STEELE.
Reading edition
Readers desirous of knowing more about Steele may be referred to Forster's Essay, first printed in the Quarterly Review for 1855; to Mr. Dobson's "Richard Steele," 1886, in the English Worthies series; and to the Life of Richard Steele, 2 vols., 1889, by the present writer. From the last-mentioned work I have occasionally borrowed a phrase or sentence in this Introduction.
