Thomas Heywood's The Captives ; or, the Lost Recovered was

printed for the first time by the late A. H. Bullen in an edition of a hundred and fifty copies only- Mr. A. C. Judson's edition (Yale University Press and Humphrey Milford, 12s. 6d.) really fills a gap. His notes on the sources of the play are elaborate and interesting ; most of his• emendations appear to be justified. The play itself is ingeniously constructed, but has not much genuine passion in it.
