JULIUS CAESAR, n. d.

There were four undated editions of this play issued between the first edition, 1684, and the sixth, 1691. They differ so slightly that errors in pagination are here given as well as the usual collation, to enable an owner to determine which edition he has. The four editions are all reset throughout and confrontation shows many differences not easy to describe. The editions were probably issued in the order here assigned to them.
