Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Shakspeare and His Friends, Vol. 1 of 3: Or the Golden Age of Merry England
I prythee have patience, courteous reader! The whilst I describe a certain chamber well worthy of most minute delineation - as thou wilt see anon - from its having been the retreat, or closet, or place retired from the public eye, in which the master spirit of his age, and the glory of all times to come, did first develope those right famous qualities from which the world hath received such infinite profit and de light. Iwill not trouble thee with a vain show of phrases architectural, which crabbed antiquarians do much affect; for I am not learned' in the mystery of stone and timber; but what true heart and simple skill can do with language, will I essay, to give thee an accurate conception of a place that hath so many admirable recommendations to thy atten tion.
It was a room of no extraordinary dimensions, yet was it not stinted to space. The ceiling was of a moderate height.
