Note 734 — Chapter X · THE MUMMERS’ PLAY

Reading edition

Is ‘Anthony’ a reminiscence of the Seven Champions? The Fool says (ll. 247-9), like Beelzebub in the St. George plays,

‘Here comes I that never come yet, ... I have a great head but little wit.’

He also jests (l. 229) on his ‘tool’; cf. p. 196 n.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
