Mr Arkwright gives us an interesting bit of information in connection with Morley and Shakespeare. "Morley lived in St Peter's, Bishopsgate, between 1596 and 1601, and his name appears in two Rolls of Assessments for Subsidies.

He and Shakespeare both appealed against the assessment, and it may be supposed some amount of personal intercourse existed between them."
