The Perjur'd Husband; or, The Adventures of Venice. A Tragedy
Centlivre, Susanna
English drama; Tragedies (Drama)
At the very beginning of Act 5, Scene 1, a speech wrongly given to
Ludovic has been assigned to Lucy in keeping with the logic of the
dialogue.
Two obvious typographical errors were corrected: "Reputatron" became
"Reputation" in Act 2, Scene 2 (Ludovic); "connot" was changed to
"cannot" in Act 4, Scene 1 (Placentia).
Two further changes to the text are listed below:
In Act 1, scene 3, the word "I" was added before the first occurrence of
the word "cannot" in the following passage spoken by Aurelia:
In vain I strive to check my new-born Love, I cannot, cannot
live without _Bassino_
In Act 3, scene 2, one instance of the word "own" was deleted in the
following sentence spoken by Lucy:
What would you say now, Madam, if I should contrive a Way to
have your Lover in your own Chamber?
