To edit Edmond Tyllney's "Topographical s, Regiments, and Policies," the most complete contemporary of Elizabethan Europe extant in English. The work is important because Tyllney was responsible for censoring political overtones from drama, including Shakespeare's, during his long career as Master of the Revels. (1579-1610).
