Only one of these, the last, now remains, though there are traditions with regard to the others, and the single one left shows what precious material was lost.
His _Enterlude of Vertue_[130] and his _Comedy callyd Achademios_[131] have perished; so perhaps has his _Nigramansir_;[132] but his _Magnyfycence_ is still extant.
