Synopsis
Excerpt from Specimens of English Dramatic Poets: Who Lived About the Time of Shakespeare, With the Extracts From the Garrick Plays
I have, however, added to the text, within square brackets, the dates of the plays, the birth and death dates Of the authors, and a reference to the pages in the volume in which other ex tracts from their works may be found. Beyond these interpola tions, notes of the omitted passages, hints as to the best modern editions, and the addition of references to the act and scene of the play from which each extract is taken,_ the text is as Lamb left it. Chief among the friends but for whose help my difficulties would have been greater is Mr. A. H. Bullen.
