A playwright, working alone, could generally produce two plays a year at most ; in the 1630s Richard Brome signed a contract with the Salisbury Court Theatre to supply three plays a year, but found himself unable to meet the workload.

As a result, Brome signed a three-year contract with Richard Heton, manager of the Salisbury Court, to write three plays annually at a salary of 15 shillings per week plus one day's profit per play.

The plays Brome wrote were certainly, and strongly, influenced by Jonsonian comedy ( Brome was not a tragedian ).

Alfred Harbage has argued that two of John Dryden's plays, The Wild Gallant ( 1663 ) and The Mistaken Husband ( 1674 ), are adaptations of otherwise-lost plays by Brome, based on the plays ' internal evidence of plot and style.

In an active playwriting career of not quite fifteen years, 1629 to 1642, Brome produced about two plays a year.

Other Brome plays reappeared in adapted forms.

The lost play Christianetta ( registered 1640 ) may have been a collaboration between Chapman and Richard Brome, or a revision by Brome of a Chapman work.

Scholars have interpreted the allusions to mean that Brome may have begun as a menial servant but later became a sort of secretary and general assistant to the older playwright.

Drooping Brome seeds are also a critical portion of the diet of the Chukar and Grey Partridge which have been introduced to the US.

De Brome may have been one of these, he had been ordained priest on March 2, 1301, and was admitted as rector of Wyck Rissington, Gloucestershire, three weeks later.

In England most foodplant records were on False Brome ( Brachypodium sylvaticum ) but it may have used Bromus spp.

Recorded foodplants include Rough Meadow Grass Poa trivialis, Smooth Meadow Grass Poa pratensis, Festuca spp., Bents Agrostis spp., and Cock's-foot Dactylis glomerata, False Brome Brachypodium sylvaticum, Downy Oat-grass and Helictotrichon pubescens

Notable physical features of the county include Mount Brome in the northwestern corner of the Township of Brome and the much larger Mount Sutton in the Township of Sutton, and Brome Lake in the eastern part of the Township of Brome, which flows into the Yamaska River, site of a famous duck farm.

Other hills in the chain include Mont Saint-Bruno, Mont Saint-Hilaire, Mont Saint-Grégoire, Mont Rougemont, Mont Yamaska, Mont Shefford, and Mont Brome.

At present, its plants include, in rough order of succession: Lamb's Quarters ( Chenopodium album ), Ragweed ( Ambrosia artemisiifolia ), Foxtail Grass ( Setaria glauca ), Bluegrass ( Poa pratensis ), Quackgrass ( Agropyron repens ), Smooth Brome ( Bromus inermis ), Goldenrods ( Solidago canadensis, S. graminifolia ) Asters ( Aster novae-angliae, A. ericoides ), Box Elder ( Acer negundo ), Cottonwood ( Populus deltoides ), Quaking Aspen ( Populus tremuloides ), Sugar Maple ( Acer saccharum ), American Beech ( Fagus grandiflora ), Eastern Hemlock ( Tsuga canadensis ) and Yellow Birch ( Betula alleghaniensis ).

The favoured food plant is Yorkshire Fog Holcus lanatus, although other recorded foodplants include Timothy Phleum pratense, Creeping Soft Grass Holcus mollis, False Brome Brachypodium sylvaticum, Meadow Foxtail Alopecurus pratensis and Cock's foot Dactylis glomerata.

Other choices include Creeping Soft Grass ( Holcus mollis ), Couch Grass ( Elymus repens ), Timothy-grass ( Phleum pratense ), Meadow Foxtail ( Alopecurus pratensis ), False Brome ( Brachypodium sylvaticum ) and Tor-grass ( Brachypodium pinnatum ).

An early collaboration, A Fault in Friendship ( now lost ) was licensed in 1623 for Prince Charles's Men ; a 1629 solo Brome effort, The Lovesick Maid ( also lost ), was a success for the King's Men.

The 1659 volume, published by Andrew Crooke and Henry Brome ( again, no relation ), contains The English Moor, The Lovesick Court, The Weeding of Covent Garden, The New Academy, and The Queen and Concubine.

It is also often found in mesotrophic grassland on rendzinas and similar calcareous soils in association with Glaucous Sedge ( Carex flacca ), Sheep's Fescue ( Festuca ovina ), and either Tor-grass ( Brachypodium pinnatum ) and Rough Hawkbit ( Leontodon hispidus ), or Upright Brome ( Bromus erectus ).

* Thomas Fuller and the English dramatist Richard Brome argue that the model for the song was the 16th century cleric and vicar of Bray, Berkshire, Simon Aleyn ( 1540 – 1588 ), who lived in the reigns of Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary, and Elizabeth.

High level sheep-grazed marshes carry populations of the nationally scarce Bulbous Foxtail ( Alopecurus bulbosus ), Slender Hare's-ear ( Bupleurum tenuissimum ) and Sea Barley ( Hordeum marinum ) while Stert Island is known to support the nationally rare Compact Brome ( Bromus madritensis ) and nationally scarce Ray's Knotgrass ( Polygonum oxyspermum ).

Lord St Germans married Lady Jemima Cornwallis ( 24 December 1803, Brome, Suffolk-2 July 1856, Dover Street, London ), daughter of Charles Cornwallis, 2nd Marquess Cornwallis, at St James Church, Westminster, on 2 September 1824.

It is bounded in the south by Brome County ( 48 km ; 45 ° 17 ' N ), in the north and northwest by Bagot County ( 35 km ; 45 ° 41 ' N ), Richmond and Sherbrooke Counties in the east ( 35 km ; 72 ° 15 ' W ) and in the west by Rouville County ( 34 km ; 72 ° 46 ' W ).

Missisquoi County is bound entirely on the south for 51 km by the Canadian-American border ( 45 ° N ) from 72 ° 40. 5 ' W to the middle of the Richelieu River ( 73 ° 20. 8 ' W ), to the east by Brome County for 23 km along the meridian defined by 72 ° 40. 5 ' W, to the northeast by Brome County and the northwest by Rouville County, and to the west by Iberville County and the Richelieu River ( Saint-Jean County is on the other side of the river ).

Dominant introduced plants are Avena barbata, Bromus berteroanus, Great Brome ( B. diandrus ), Soft Brome ( B. hordeaceus sspp.

hordaceus and mollis ), Red Brome ( B. madritensis ssp.

Brome mosaic virus ( BMV ) is a small ( 27 nm, 86S ), positive-stranded, icosahedral RNA plant virus belonging to the family Bromoviridae of the alphavirus-like superfamily.

South-west of the town is the Friar's Oven SSSI which is the site of herb-rich calcareous grassland classified as the Upright Brome ( Bromus erectus ) type, and north-east is the Windsor Hill Quarry geological SSSI, and also the Windsor Hill Marsh biological SSSI, a marshy silted pond with adjacent damp, slightly acidic grassland which is of interest for its diverse flora, in large part down to the varied habitats present within the small area.

The hill's vegetation is species-rich chalk grassland, dominated by Upright Brome and False Oat-grass, but with many species characteristic of this habitat, including a strong population of the rare Knapweed Broomrape.

Heton tried to lure Brome back with a £ 10 payment for a new play ; but they fell behind in his payments again, and Brome turned again to Beeston.

When Brome's 1635 contract with Heton ended in 1638, new disputes arose among Brome, Beeston, and Heton ; a bill of complaint was filed against Brome, though the outcome of the case is unknown.

Brome collaborated with Thomas Heywood in The Late Lancashire Witches, which was acted by the King's Men and printed in 1634.

The 1653 edition also featured a portrait with a poem by Alexander Brome written in imitation of Jonson's poem on Shakespeare's First Folio portrait:

" Commendatory verses that he wrote for others, or that others wrote for him, associate Marmion with Heywood, Thomas Nabbes, Richard Brome, and the actor Joseph Taylor.

They become instrumental in helping Martin, along with a squirrel named Felldoh, and Rose's brother Brome, escape Marshank.

Felldoh and Brome meet up with the Rambling Rosehip Players, a traveling band of creatures, and join forces with them, eventually freeing the slaves as Brome bluffs his way into and out of Marshank, disguised as a rat from Badrang's horde.

After the battle, Martin, along with Ballaw, Rowanoak, Brome, and Keyla all stay in Polleekin's treehouse for the short rest of the season.

The story of Martin and Rose is later brought to Redwall during the time of Abbot Saxtus by Aubrieta, a descendant of Brome, and Bultip, a descendant of Pallum, who accompanies it with a sprig of climbing-rose culled from that which grew on Rose of Noonvale's grave.

On January 1, 1326, de Brome handed over the properties to the King, who, on January 21 issued by letters patent a charter of foundation in his own name, the Rector was to be replaced with a Provost, de Brome was appointed the first Provost and the college re-endowed with Tackley's Inn and Perilous Hall.
