*p1681 01 00 dg The Second Part of the Rover. Edition of 1681: Prologue-Mr Smith; Willmore-Smith; Beaumond-Williams; Ned Blunt-Underhil; Nichol^as^Fetherfool-Nokes; Shift-Wiltsher; Hunt-Richards; Don Carlo-Norice; Ariadne-Mrs Corror [$Currer=]; Lucia-Mrs Norice; La Noche-Mrs Barry; Petronella Elenora-Mrs Norice; Aurelia-Mrs Crofts; Old Jew-Freeman; Epilogue-Mrs Barry.*c1681 01 00 dg The <i>Duke's Company</i>. The date of the first performance is not known. An entry in <i>L. C.</i> 5@145, p. 120 (see also <i>Nicoll, Restoration Drama</i>, p. 349) lists a performance for 4 April, once thought to be 4 April 1680; but as this date falls on Sunday, it more likely represents a revival on 4 April 1681. As the <i>Epilogue</i> appears to appeal to <i>Parliament</i> (which existed from 15 Oct. 1680 to 18 Jan. 1680@1) to vote funds for $King Charles=, "Our King of Poets," it seems likely that the play was first performed before the close of Parliament. The play was not entered in the <i>Term Catalogues</i> until June 1681. A song, <i>Phyllis whose heart was unconfined</i>, set by $Thomas? Farmer=; and another, <i>A pox upon this cursed life</i>, set by $Captain Pack=, are in <i>Choice Ayres and Songs</i>, The Fourth Book, 1683.
