M. for M. (F1 recto-G6 verso) has been completely excised. Passages are obliterated in Temp.

Notes (Hamnet) See Sidney Lee, "Shakespeare and the Inquisition: A Spanish Second Folio," in his, Elizabethan and Other Essays (1929), 184- 95, first published 1922. Lee cites most of the obliterations and ms. additions although not always fully or accurately. (Full list of obliterations and ms. additions on file.) Lee names the censor as Guillén Sanchez rather than Guillermo Sánchez, misreading the censor's signature ("Gulielmum" for "Guilielmum"). Otherwise, the English Jesuit William Sankey has been nominated as the censor, but the hand of the censor's certificate is apparently Spanish.

Notes (Hamnet) Some plays are designated "good" in an 18th-century hand in their caption, Merry Wives (D2 recto), Errors (H1 recto), Much Ado (I3 recto), and Merch.
