Note 568 — Chapter XVII
Reading edition
Nathaniel Field, the leading actor at Whitefriars, published A Woman is a Weathercock in 1612, with the statement to the reader: "If thou hast anything to say to me, thou know'st where to hear of me for a year or two, and no more, I assure thee." Possibly this reflects the failure of the managers to renew the lease; after 1614 Field did not know where he would be acting. But editors have generally regarded it as meaning that Field intended to withdraw from acting.
