THis Author is (I suppose) still living, and has writ a Play set off with Sculptures, and several Titles to make it sell; it was first call'd,

Noah's Flood; or, The Destruction of the World, an Opera, 4to. 1679. Dedicated to the Dutchess of Monmouth; the second Title was The Cataplasm, or General Deluge of the World, 4to. 1684. and again the third time, under the Name of The Deluge, or, The Destruction of the World, 4to. 1691. The Foundation of it is from Sacred Writ.
