/ Up with what's low, what's high eschew, / Call crooked straight, and straight askew ," The Herald, who acts as Master of Revels or Lord of Misrule, strikes Thersites with his mace, at which point he metamorphoses into an egg, from which a bat and an adder are hatched.

In the mid-to-late 1590s Buck was in competition with playwright John Lyly for the reversion of the office of the Master of the Revels, then held by Buck's relation Sir Edmund Tilney (" reversion " meaning that the candidate would obtain the office when the present office-holder vacated it — usually by death ).

Upon the start of the new Stuart dynasty in 1603, Buck was knighted ( on 23 July ) and formally received the reversion to the office of Master of the Revels with an appointment as Deputy Master, by a royal patent ( on 23 June ).

The Master of the Revels was responsible for supervising and censoring the plays performed in the public theatres, and for arranging performances of those plays at Court.

A year later he was again made Master of the Revels in Ireland and he set about the building of a new theatre in Smock Alley, Dublin.

The Master of the Revels was the holder of a position within the English, and later the British, royal household, heading the " Revels Office " or " Office of the Revels ".

Among the expenses of the royal Wardrobe we find provision made for tunicae and viseres ( shirts and hats ) in 1347 for the Christmas ludi ( plays ) of Edward III ; during the reign of King Henry VII, payments are also recorded for various forms of court revels ; and it became regular, apparently, to appoint a special functionary, called Master of the Revels, to superintend the royal festivities, quite distinct from the Lord of Misrule.

In Henry VII's time the Master of the Revels seems to have been a minor official of the household.

In Henry VIII's court, however, the post became more important, and an officer of the Wardrobe was permanently employed to act under the Master of the Revels.

With the patent given to John Farlyon in 1534 as Yeoman of the Revels, what may be considered as an independent office of the Revels ( within the general sphere of the Lord Chamberlain ) came into being ; and in 1544 Sir Thomas Cawarden received a patent as Master of the Revels, he being the first to become head of an independent office.
