¶Randolph p.23; Wise I.70-1 & II.xxvi: without half title as issued, and with the imprint including "Martin, Holles-Street, Cavendish Square" at the foot of the titlepage. These 'genuine rejected addresses' are mostly pseudonymous, but include Horace Twiss and Alicia Lefanu. The Drury Lane Theatre, which had burnt down in 1809 and was due to reopen in October 1812, had an open contest for writing the address that would be read at the public opening. All entries were rejected, and Byron was commissioned to write something instead; several parodies were published in response including 'Rejected Addresses', 'A Sequel to Rejected Addresses', and 'Accepted Addresses'.
