NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Mistress Dean Sherman, the Dean Buck of Radcliffe, hath escorted two selecte prospective freshmen and their selecte headmistress, from a selecte finishing school to cast eyes upon "Bartholomew Fair" as acted upon by players of ye Idler.

Said Idler respecteth Bard Jonson--and bard Ursula--and being not of mind to destroy the aura of the era doth present said play unexpurgated. They do prove themselves Leatherheads, for they do Overdo said masque in Quarlous manner, guzzling ale in lien of Cokes, articulating so to Troubleall, and showing more than respectable Edgeworth of petticoat which scarce would Winwife, much lest two matriculated freshmen.

Said Mistress Sherman beith ill-amused. Said selecte headmistress beith ill-disposed. Said players beith ill-abused. So 'tis said.
