Note

Edward Sexby and Silius Titus were joint authors of "Killing no murder"; William Allen, under whose name this work appeared, was, like Sexby, a trooper in Cromwell's own regiment. Cf. Firth, C.H., "Killing no murder," in English historical review, v. 17 (1902), pp. 308ff.Citation/references Wing (CD-ROM, 1996), H1171
