References to yellow bands and yellow starch recur in plays of the 1615 18 era, by Middleton and others " A Fair Quarrel ", " The Widow ", " More Dissemblers Besides Women ", " Albumazar ", " The Queen of Corinth ", " The Devil is an Ass ", and " Christmas, His Masque " . ( Robert Davenport's plays of uncertain date, " The City Nightcap " and " A New Trick to Cheat the Devil ", also contain such references . ) " The World Tossed at Tennis " is unique in that it refers not only to white and yellow starch but to red, green, and blue starch too.
