Excerpt from Kempes Nine Daies Wonder, Performed in a Journey From London to Norwich: Wherein Euery Dayes Journey Is Pleasantly Set Down, to Satisfie His Friends the Truth Against All Lying Ballad-Makers; What Hee Did, How He Was Welcome, and by Whome Entertained In 1840, the Rev. Alexander Dyce issued an edition for the Camden Society, to which I am indebted for most of the notes I have appended but to the general reader I believe the Nine Baies Wonder will prove an interesting novelty, if such a term can be applied to a work more than two hundred years old. In the burial register of St. Saviour's, Suffolk, is the following entry 1603, November 2d. William Kempe, a man. And as Kempe's name does not appear in the licence granted by King James I. In that year to the Lord Chamberlain's company, it has been pre sumed that the entry refers to our author. He may have been carried off by the plague in that year.
