In <i>A King and No King</i>, Beaumont wrote Acts I, II, and III in their entirety, plus scene IV,iv and V,ii and iv, while Fletcher wrote only the first three scenes in Act IV (IV,i-iii) and the first and third scenes of Act V (V,i and iii). The play is more Beaumont's than it is Fletcher's. Beaumont also dominates in <i>The Maid's Tragedy</i>, <i>The Noble Gentleman,</i> <i>Philaster</i>, and <i>The Woman Hater</i>. In contrast, <i>The Captain</i>, <i>The Coxcomb</i>, <i>Cupid's Revenge</i>, <i>Beggars' Bush</i>, and <i>The Scornful Lady</i> contain more of Fletcher's work than Beaumont's. The cases of <i>Thierry and Theodoret</i> and <i>Love's Cure</i> are somewhat confused by Massinger's revision; but in these plays too, Fletcher appears the dominant partner. </p><p>Critics and scholars debate other plays. Fletcher clearly wrote the last two quarters of <i><a href="/wiki/Four_Plays_in_One" title="Four Plays in One">Four Plays in One</a></i>, another play in his canon—and he clearly didn't write the first two sections. Many scholars attribute the play's first half to Nathan Field—though some prefer Beaumont. Given the limits of the existing evidence, some of these questions may be unresolvable with currently available techniques. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2
