To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Consider the fulness and harmony and sense of delusion in such a scene as the fourth of the second act of King Henry IV. , Part I. In a single picture we have Prince Henry's jest with Francis, FalstafFs account of the adventure on Gadshill, which is truly mar- vellous every way ; and after all that is done, we get the acted interview between the king and his son, and wind up with the visitation of the sheriff, and the searching of FalstafFs pockets as he lies asleep behind the arras. A grander ...comic scene was never imagined ; and our being enabled to see so much of A CHAPTER OF STAGE HISTORY. 37 the characters at one view gives an air of reality to the whole that cannot be overrated.
As a contrast to this, compare the last act of Macbeth. How broken up and fidgetty it is ! What harassing recollections we have of pieces of painted woods and fortifications clapping together and sliding apart; of little stage armies marching across, with drums and trumpets sounding from behind; of a few words being spoken, and then a fresh scene !
