To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Written by William Shakespeare. Printed by James Roberts, 1 600. " It is a curious circumstance that, although there are a sufficient number of textual variations to warrant the conjecture that these editions are derived from separate sources, there appears to be an imitation of typical arrangement leading to the opinion that, in reality, one was copied in some degree from the other ; and perhaps Fisher's edition, which, on the whole, seems to be more correct than the other, was printed from a ...corrected copy of that published by Roberts. It has, indeed, been usually supposed, that Fisher's edition was the earliest, but no evidence has been adduced in support of this assertion, and the probabilities are against this view being the correct one. Fisher's edition could not have been published till nearly the end of the year, and, in the absence of direct information to the contrary, it may be presumed that the one printed by Roberts is really the first edition. There are reasons for believing that, not- withstanding the general opinion of the unfitness of the Midsummer Night's Dream for repre- 35 sentation, it was a successful acting play in the seventeenth century.
