Copy at V&A Dyce 8vo 8797 contains a MS note by Mr. Singer: 'The Inganni of Secchi may have suggested to Shakespeare the plot of Twelfth Night. In this play there is a brother and sister resembling each other; the latter disguises herself in male habits, and hence the mistakes which form the principal incidents of the plot. The resemblance has been pointed out in a manuscript diary cited by Collier in his History of Dramatic Poetry, vol. I, p. 327.' | |||||
