Summary
A fair copy predominantly in one hand with several additions by others. Abbreviated list of contents at the beginning. A list of English plays arranged by title, including "entertainment," "masque" and "pageants", giving the author, the date when printed (if not, the notation "NP"), and occasionally the size and other information. Many checked in red ink. The list is not obviously based on any well-known list of plays
