		Henslowe was livid and replied to the parish, exclaiming that he 'wold [r]ather pulledowne the playehowse then.

		Philip Henslowe, by trade a dyer, and an acute man of business interested in undertakings of various kinds, leased an estate in the Clink liberty, Southwark, in 1585, and, in 1587, was contemplating the building upon it of a playhouse, of which, if it was built at all, we hear nothing till some years later.

		The Rose was built mainly of timber, lath and plaster, though entries in Henslowe’s accounts for bricks and bricklaying seem to imply a brick foundation for the wooden walls.

	Charles Wisner Barrell - Shakespeare's HENRY V Can Be Identified As "Harry of Cornwall" In Henslowe's Diary
		Turning thereto, we find that in the very first run of repertory listed by Henslowe from February to June, 1592, "lord strangers mene" appeared at the Rose in two plays that can be identified as Shakespeare's Henry V and 1 Henry VI.
		The "harey of cornwell" title that Henslowe uses to designate Henry V can be shown to be quaintly appropriate (as every observer of Olivier's film will be reminded) also thoroughly consistent with the theatre owner's pawky penchant for applying nicknames to current successes, as elsewhere noted.
		At the same time, this title for the genuine Shakespeare drama would sufficiently differentiate it in Henslowe's records from The Famous Victories of Henry the Fifth, which was also a popular piece of long-standing in the repertory of the Queen's Men.

	§10. Michael Drayton’s dramatic work. XIII. Lesser Elizabethan Dramatists. Vol. 5. The Drama to 1642, Part ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Drayton alone, among Henslowe’s writers, regarded the writing of plays as discreditable; and this fact suggested to Fleay the theory that his plays could be safely appropriated by unprincipled printers, but that, as the printer could not use Drayton’s name, Shakespeare’s name or initials appear on the title-pages of plays really by Drayton.
		It is added that a great unevenness of activity is noticeable in the record of Drayton’s work for Henslowe, andthat, therefore, he could very well have written for other companies.
		The obvious weak point of this theory is that unprincipled printers stole none of the plays which Drayton wrote for Henslowe’s company.

	Ben Jonson
		In 1597, as we know from Henslowe, Jonson undertook to write a play for the lord admiral's men; and in the following year he was mentioned by Merès in his Palladis Tamia as one of "the best for tragedy", without any reference to a connection on his part with the other branch of the drama.
		He pleaded guilty to the charge brought against him, as the rolls of Middlesex sessions show; but, after a short imprisonment, he was released by benefit of clergy, forfeiting his "goods and chattels", and being branded on his left thumb.
		The affair does not seem to have affected his reputation; in 1599 he is found back again at work for Henslowe, receiving together with Thomas Dekker, Chettle and "another gentleman", earnest-money for a tragedy (undiscovered) called Robert II, King of Scots.
