Transcriber's Note

Endnotes have been moved to the end of the scene to which they apply. The following note preceded the printed endnotes:

"In the Quartos there are no divisions of acts and scenes.

ARDEN OF FEVERSHAM

The text of this edition is nearly that of the first Quarto, the copy of which in the Dyce Library at South Kensington has been carefully collated. I have not noted minute variations. The German editors, Warnke and Proescholt, give the various readings of the three Quartos and of later editions.

ARDEN OF FEVERSHAM

J. M. DENT AND CO. ALDINE HOUSE : LONDON 1897

'Considering the various and marvellous gifts displayed for the first time on our stage by the great poet, the great dramatist, the strong and subtle searcher of hearts, the just and merciful judge and painter of human passions, who gave this tragedy to the new-born literature of our drama ... I cannot but finally take heart to say, even in the absence of all external or traditional testimony, that it seems to me not pardonable merely or permissible, but simply logical and reasonable, to set down this poem, a young man's work on the face of it, as the possible work of no man's youthful hand but Shakespeare's.'

Mr. A. C. SWINBURNE.
