This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed.

Ye lovely ladies and ye men of might, 'Tis Cymbeline shall be our play to-night; But, since at large to read the text were long, Our gentle Shakespeare will forgive the wrong, If I the fore-plot of the piece rehearse In lines foreshortened and shortcoming verse.
