The facsimile opposite reproduces, by permission of the owner, the Marquis of Bath, a sheet lately discovered at Longleat by Sir E. K. Chambers and discussed by him as 'The First Illustration to ‘"Shakespeare"' in 'The Library,' March, 1925. The document, consisting of the single page here photographed, was produced by Henry Peacham, painter and author, in 1595. The sketch at the top shows Tamora and her two kneeling sons appealing to Titus Andronicus for the life of Alarbus, while Aaron the Moor stands at the extreme right.
