To which will be added the Coronation Scene of Anna Bullen , and the Ceremony of the Champion in Westminster Hallv; with several additional Decorations. Daily Post, 27 Nov.: The Coronation of Anna Bullenv having met with such extraordinary Success...the Players have been encouraged to give the Town and additional and different View of that Solemnity, by shewing the whole Magnificence at one, with the Ceremony of the Champion in Westminster Hall, &c.

Afterpiece Title: The Necromancer

Event Comment: Mainpiece: Newly Revis'd and AlterM N.B. The Reviser begs leave to observe, that tho' he thinks the Chief Characters in this Play, are drawn with a great deal of Life and Spirit; Yet that even in this very sprightly Play there are several very obvious Faults. That as the Character of the French Count, and that of the Irish Priest, are in no sort conducive to the Plot of the Play; they may therefore be look'd upon as superfluous: That the Parting of Sullen and his Wife, is extreamly unnatural; and that the Ending of the Play (with respect to Archer) is abrupt to a Degree, &c. &c. In order therefore to amend these Errors [he has revised the play]
