Excerpt from Selected Notes Upon Shakespeare's Tragedy of Antony and Cleopatra
Some said, John, print them others said, Not so Some said, They might do good; others said, No.
Under the impression, however, that a collection of extracts, illustrative of Shakespeare's language and allusions, taken from Old English books, is never without some value, I have decided to print a selec tion from my materials on each play separately. Upon some of the dramas there will be but a small contribution, but it is trusted that there will be hardly a volume in the series, however diminutive, which will not offer information of some little use to a future editor.
