The date of the first performance is not certain, but it was probably this day. A letter dated 26 Jan. 1681@2 speaks of the preceding day's performance as the "poet's day," presumably the third day; it is likely, therefore, that the premiere fell on Monday, 23 Jan. 1681@2. The <i>Prologue</i> and <i>Epilogue</i>, were printed separately in 1682 and reprinted in $Wiley=, <i>Rare Prologues and Epilogues</i>, pp. 50-51. $Luttrell='s copy (<i>Huntington Library</i>) bears his acquisition date of 14 Feb. 1681@2. A note on the <i>Library of Congress</i> copy indicated that $Smith= spoke the Prologue. A song, <i>Great Augustus like the glorious sun</i>, with music by $John Blow=, is in <i>A New Collection of Poems and Songs</i>, 1683. Another, <i>Now the Tones all must droop</i>, sung by $Bowman=, is in the same collection, but without indication of the composer, and a third, <i>Twa bonny lads were Sawney and Jockey</i>, without singer or composer, is in the same collection.
