Scope and content

Title and Trevelyan's address written on the front in Trevelyan's hand, also some corrections to the text. Pencil annotations relating to musical accompaniment for performance, indicating stresses and metre etc; this is likely to be connected to Terence Gray's 1929 production at the Cambridge Festival Theatre, with music by Philip Cathie [despite later addition of '1939', the date of the publication of Trevelyan's translation, in pencil on the front of the typescript].
