Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dramatic Works and Poems of James Shirley, Vol. 1 of 6: With Notes; Containing, Some Account of Shirley and His Writings; Commendatory Verses on Shirley; Love Tricks, or the School of Complement; The Maid's Revenge The present edition of Shirley's Works, as far as the second drama of the sixth volume, was conducted by Mr. Gifford. After his decease, (as I am obligingly informed by his executor, the Dean of Westminster), no memoranda were discovered among his papers either for that portion of Shirley's writings which was yet to be reprinted, or for a biographical memoir of the author.
