This specially bound collection of three quartos, with Congreve’s signature on each of the three title pages, was item No. 209 in the Leeds Sale, 1930. Since the dates on these title pages are 1684, 1684, and 1687, the quartos could have been only the following:

Number 407 probably included the following:
(a) Thomas Middleton’s A mad world my masters, in a quarto of 1608 (STC 17888—BM; Harv, NYP, Folg, Hunt) or of 1640 (STC 17889—BM; Harv, Folg, Newberry, Texas, Hunt). No. 490 indicates that the reference here is to Middleton’s play rather than to Breton’s dialogue (STC 3667).
(b) Beaumont and Fletcher’s Cupid’s revenge, in a quarto of 1615 (STC 1667—BM; Harv, Hunt), of 1630 (STC 1668—BM; Harv, Folg, Newberry, Texas, Hunt), or of 1635 (STC 1669—Bodleian; Harv, NYP, Folg, LC, Newberry, Hunt).
(c) Shakespeare’s The merry wives of Windsor, in the 1630 quarto (STC 22301—BM; Harv, NYP, Folg, Hunt). Also possible, but less likely because of the wording of the titles, are the quartos of 1602 (STC 22299—BM; Folg, Hunt) and 1619 (STC 22300—BM; Harv, Folg, Hunt).
(d) George Chapman’s The conspiracie, and tragedie of Charles Duke of Byron, Marshall of France, in a quarto of 1608 (STC 4968—BM; Harv, Folg. Illinois, Texas, Hunt) or of 1625 (STC 4969—BM; Harv, Folg, LC, Newberry, Hunt).

BM; Yale, Folg, Hunt.
SinceThe sequelwas the only “second” part ofHenry IVavailable before Congreve’s death, it must have been one of the six plays in No. 408. The other five, as Dr. Giles Dawson of the Folger Shakespeare Library has kindly pointed out, were all available about 1720–1721 in the second edition of the T. Johnson octavos and may be consulted at the Folger Library. Furthermore, these octavos were small, about the size of the duodecimos of the period, and would have fitted well withThe sequelinto a volume which might easily have been classified according to size as 12o.

In Sotheby’s catalogue for the Leeds Sale, 1930, item No. 5 reads as follows: “Addison (J.), William Congreve and others. A Collection of Poems . . . upon the Victories of Blenheim and Ramillies,panelled calf. folio.1708.” And perhaps it was this same unique volume that Sotheby advertised for sale on 23 November 1931: “A Collection of Poems . . . upon the Victories of Blenheim and Ramilies.

Since no edition of Shakespeare printed before Congreve’s death had a third volume beginning with theMerry Wives of Windsor, No. 546 is apparently the same as No. 408, a specially bound duodecimo volume beginning with theMerry Wives. But it is still not clear why a single specially bound volume should be called the “3d.”
