KING JOHN.

The Life and Death of King John occupies twenty-two pages in the folio of 1623; viz., from p. 1 to p. 22 inclusive, in the division of Histories, - each of the three great divisions of that volume having its own numeration of pages. The play is there divided into Acts and Scenes, but with a transposition, in the second Act, of Actus Secundus and Scena Secunda. It is without a list of Dramatis Personæ, which was first supplied by Rowe.
