The Prologue and Epilogue are two separate manuscripts, in different hands, still attached after removal from volume. A Prologue begins: "Tis not five yeares since this was a Sweete Place..." (2 p.); the Epilogue begins: "Our theatre alas is quite undone..." (2 p.). The manuscripts were removed from Bridgewater pamphlet volume 2/G 16 (HEH 133562-90) which was broken up for the removal of duplicates.
