Excerpt from Shakespeare's Editors and Commentators

IN a letter to Nicholas Okes the printer, inserted at the end of Heywood's Apology for Actors, a treatise published in 1612, speaking of William J aggard the writer observes, The infinite faults escaped in my booke of Britaines Troy by the negli gence of the printer, as the misquotations, mistaking of syllables, misplacing half lines, coining of strange and never heard of words, these being without number, when I would have taken a particular ao count of the Errata, the printer answered me, hee would not publish his owne disworkmanship, but rather let his owne fault lye upon the necke of the author.
