8. The History of Timon of Athens the Manhater; acted at the duke's
theatre, printed at London 1678, in 4to. In the dedication to George
duke of Buckingham he observes, that this play was originally
Shakespear's, who never made, says he, more masterly strokes than in
this; yet I can truly say, I have made it into a play.

9. The Miser, a Comedy; acted at the theatre royal, dedicated to
the earl of Dorset. In the preface our author observes, he took the
foundation of it from Moliere's L'Avare.

10. A true Widow, a Comedy; acted at the duke's theatre, printed in
1679, in 4to, dedicated to Sir Charles Sidley. The prologue was written
by Mr. Dryden; for at this time they lived in friendship.

11. The Lancashire Witches, and Teague O Divelly, the Irish priest, a
comedy; acted at the duke's theatre, printed at London 1682. Our author
has a long preface to this play, in which he vindicates his piece from
the charge of reflecting upon the church, and the sacred order. He
apologizes for the magical part, and observes, that he had no hopes of
equaling Shakespear in his fancy, who created his Witches for the most
part out of his imagination; in which faculty no man ever excelled led
him, and therefore, says he, I resolve to take mine from authority.

12. The Woman Captain, a Comedy; acted by his royal highness's servants.

13. The Squire of Alsatia, a Comedy; acted by his Majesty's servants,
printed at London 1688, in 4to. and dedicated to the earl of Dorset and
Middlesex.
