Amory's new shew invented by him'. This is confirmed by the lines: Amor is loue and Amory is his name, That did begin this pompe and princelye game. ''Camp-Bell. 29 Oct. 1609''

[1609?] Running title: Camp-bell, or The Ironmongers Faire Field. [The only known copy (B.M. C. 33, E. 7) lacks the t.p. and sig. A. Thomas Campbell was mayor in 1609. For his grandson, James Campbell, mayor in 1629, Dekker wrote London's Tempe, or The Field of Happines.] Greg, Masques, 21, assigns this to Munday, without stating his grounds.
