Soon after the first performances of Corneilles Le Cid in France English poet and playwright Joseph Rutter translated the play into iambic pentameter verse in English. Rutters translation was performed at the royal court before King Charles I and his wife Queen Henrietta Maria and subsequently at the Cockpit Stage Drury Lane London by the kings players. In the present edition the spelling and punctuation of Rutters translation have been modernized. And the editor has added his own translation of two scenes that Rutter had omitted from his translation.
