==Critical Commentary==<br />
<br />
E.K. Chambers suggested that ''The Woman is Too Hard for Him'' might be an alternative title for Fletcher's ''The Woman's Prize, or The Tamer Tamed'' (3:222). <br />
<br />
G.E. Bentley cites an unnamed scholar who claimed that ''The Woman is Too Hard for Him'' might be an alternative name for Fletcher's ''The Wild Goose Chase''. Bentley agrees that "the title would be appropriate for Fletcher's comedy", but concludes that<br />
:since that play was acted at court under its familiar name only two months later, and indeed the record of payment for the two performances is found in the same document, it is unlikely that the play would be given two different titles, one of them not otherwise known, in the same record. (5:1444-5)<br />
