Excerpt from Twelfth Night, or What You Will: A Comedy in Five Acts Twelfth Night is, to me, the last play of Shakespeare's golden age. I feel happy ease in the writing, and find much happy carelessness in the putting together. It is akin to the Two Gentlemen of Verona (compare Viola and Julia), it echoes a little to the same tune as the sweeter parts of the Merchant of Venice, and its comic spirit is the spirit of the Falstaff scenes of Henry IV. That are to my taste the truest comedy he wrote. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
