The original texts of Shakespeare's plays do not have cast-lists, and are not always consistent with characters' names. Puck's case is particularly awkward. Both the Quarto and the First Folio call the character "Robin Goodfellow" on the first entrance, but "Puck" later in the same scene, and they remain inconsistent. The Arden Shakespeare calls the character "Puck", and emends all stage directions (but not actual dialogue) that refer to the character as "Robin" or "Robin Goodfellow".

Launey's emendation has long been accepted by most scholars, but the problems of chronology and geography render "a definitive solution impossible", according to Hauben. The "Island of Patroclus", seen from Sounion Epigraphical evidence suggests that Patroclus then visited Ceos.

A.N. > Johnson (Boston), 1846. The four-part chorus favors a single bass and three > tenors: the first and third tenors harmonize in thirds with the second > completes the triads or doubles the root, sometimes crossing the melody > line. The versions published in 1846 differed rather markedly: "De Blue Tail > Fly" is modal (although Lhamar emends its B♭ notation to C minor) and > hexatonic; "Jim Crack Corn", meanwhile, is in G major and more easily > singable. Its simplicity has made it a common beginner's tune for acoustic > guitar.

Renaldo, Daniello Bartoli: A letterato of the Seicento (Naples,1979) p. 41 It seems to have fulfilled the Baroque dream of an energetic rhetorical eloquence to which the age aspired. Through its gallery of exemplary stylizations and picturesque moral encouragements it defends and emends not only the aspiring letterato, but also an updated classicism open to modernity, but diffident of excess.
