Dryden's second-to-last play, and according to MacDonald partially completed by Southerne. Its first performance should have been early in April 1692, but on the 9th it was prohibited; it was acted out on or before 16 April at the Theatre Royal. In his Dedication Dryden attributes the lifting of the ban to Rochester (the dedicatee), who had represented the drama to the Queen as 'wholly innocent of those Crimes which were laid unjustly to its Charge'. The Life of Cleomenes is supplied by Creech (from Plutarch; see MacDonald 131). In this copy, as often, the Prologue and Epilogue appear before the 'Life'. CBEL II, p.267; MacDonald, 92.
