It is only Jupiter and Io and Apollo and Daphne, which are based on Ovid, and Amphrisa, for which there is no known source, that can belong to this group; and Heywood gives no indication as to their date. Lost and Doubtful Plays

On How to Learn of a Woman to Woo, see s.v. The Wise Woman of Hogsden. The author of The Second Part of Hudibras (1663) names Heywood as the author of The Bold Beauchamps, which is mentioned with Jane Shore in The Knight of the Burning Pestle, Ind. 59. The following is a complete list of the plays, by Heywood or conjecturally assigned to him, which are recorded in Henslowe's diary:  Possible plays for the Admiral's, 1594-7

For conjectures as to the authorship by Heywood of Godfrey of Bulloigne (1594), The Siege of London (>1594), Wonder of a Woman (1595), Seleo and Olympo (1595), 1, 2 Hercules (1595), Troy (1596), Five Plays in One (1597), Time's Triumph (>1597), see The Four Prentices, the anonymous Edward IV, W. Rowley's A New Wonder, The Golden Age, The Silver Age, The Iron Age, Pleasant Dialogues and Dramas. Plays for the Admiral's, 1598-1603

(i) War without Blows and Love without Suit.

Dec. 1598-Jan. 1599; identified, not plausibly, by Fleay, i. 287, with the anonymous Thracian Wonder (q.v.). (ii) Joan as Good as my Lady.

Feb. 1599, identified, conjecturally, by Fleay, i. 298, with A Maidenhead Well Lost, printed as Heywood's in 1634. (iii) 1 The London Florentine.

With Chettle, Dec. 1602-Jan. 1603.

Plays for Worcester's, 1602-3

(iv) Albere Galles.

With Smith, Sept. 1602, possibly identical with the anonymous Nobody and Somebody (q.v.). (v) Cutting Dick (additions only). Sept. 1602, identified by Fleay, ii. 319, with the anonymous Trial of Chivalry, but not plausibly (Greg, Henslowe, ii. 231). (vi) Marshal Osric.

With Smith, Sept. 1602, conceivably identical with The Royal King and the Loyal Subject (q.v.). (vii) 1 Lady Jane.

With Chettle, Dekker, Smith, and Webster, Oct. 1602, doubtless represented by the extant Sir Thomas Wyatt of Dekker (q.v.) and Webster, in which, however, Heywood's hand has not been traced.
