Spreading the veil on the ground as she sang, she arranged flowers upon it in the shape of a cross, as if to make her father's grave, and mimed a burial, a piece of stage business which remained in vogue for the rest of the century.

What do you think Shakespeare mean when he writes, “Nor shall death brag thou wand’rest in his shade, / When in eternal lines to Time though ow’st,”? What are “eternal lines” had how could they defeat death? Why does Shakespeare spend so much time describing his mistress in such an unflattering way?

We believe that reliably edited versions of the play should be available for free online. The editors who remember, far better than their professors, what it was like to read the play for the first time—carefully considered every pronoun, punctuation mark, and footnote. Our goal: to make a friendly, confidence-building edition that supported classroom activities at the high school and college level.
