Excerpt from The Dramatic Works of William Shakspeare, Vol. 7 of 10: With Sixty Engraving on Wood Th! Earliest notice we have of this play is an entry in the Sta tioners' Register by Andrew Wise, dated October 20, 1597. And running thus: the tragedy OF king richard the third with the death of the Duke of Clarence. The same year was published a quarto pamphlet of forty-seven leaves, the title-page reading as follows: The Tragedy of King Richard the Third containing his treacherous plots against his brother Clarence, the pitiful murder of his innocent nephews, his tyrannical usurpation, with the whole course of his detested life, and most deserved death: As it hath been lately acted by the Right Honourable the Lord Chamberlain his servants. At London Printed by Valentine Simms for Andrew Wise, dwelling in Paul's Church-yard, at the sign of the Angel. In this edition the author's name was not given. The play was issued again in 1598, the title-page being the same, except the addition, By \villiam Shakespeare, and the substitution of Thomas Creede for Valentine Simms. There was a third issue by the same publisher in 1602; which, though merely a reprint of the former, claimed in the title-page to be newly augmented. By another entry at the Stationers', hear ing date June Q7, 1603, it appears that Wise transferred his right in the play to Matthew Law, who published a fourth editinn in 1605, and a fifth in 1613. Three other issues of the same text are also known to have been made in quarto, the several dates being 1624, 1629, and 1634; and there is some reason to think that an edition was put forth in 1622, though no copy of that date is known to be extant.
