 Besides the Museum copy of this play, from which this 
 facsim-ile is reproduced, there is another example in the Bodleian. 
 
 " A Larum for London " was the first play dealt with 
 by the late R. Simpson in " The School of Shakespeare." His 
 " Introduction " mtist not be neglected by the student. Unfortunately, 
 Mr. Simpson's far-reaching and scholarly plan was cut short, 
 almost at the beginning, by early and premature death. 
 
 The ^^ foundation " of the play rests, almost by common 
 consent, on a tract of Gascoigne's, entitled " The Spoyle of 
 Antwerpe," he being "present at the same." 
 
 Mr. J. A. Herbert, of the Manuscripts Department of the 
 British Museum^ after comparing this facsimile with the original 
 copy, reports that the reproduction is generally excellent.
