Mid summer nights dream, may be high literature, but came across as stupid and boring. It is easy to imagine what someone like Shakespeare would think of your literary droolings. So, you wouldn't have done well in the "Shakespeare Rapid Reading" course I took to fulfill one of my undergrad majors... Oh...I wasn't using "modern usage." I was quoting Shakespeare directly from a quarto, specifically a copy of this: THE Tragicall Historie of HAMLET Prince of Denmarke By William Shakespeare. As it hath beene diuerse times acted by his Highnesse seruants in the Cittie of London: as also in the two Vniuersities of Cambridge and Oxford, and elsewhere At London printed for N.L. and Iohn Trundell. 1603. |

I'd love to own a real example of something in Shakespeare's own hand, but these are extremely rare. There are copies of some of the handwritten documents on-line, though. I do have a "musick book" from the late 17th Century, but it also was professionally printed. Last time I checked, it was fairly valuable. |
