“The result of sixteen years of untiring labor. The different editions of Shakspeare have been carefully collated by the compiler, and every possible means taken to insure the correctness of the work. As it now stands, a person can find a particular passage in Shakspeare by simply remembering one word of it, and is also referred to the act and scene of the play in which it occurs. As a mere dictionary of Shakspearian language and phrases, it is of great value; but it is also a dictionary of his thoughts and imaginations. It altogether supersedes the volumes of Twiss and Ayscough, and should be on every student’s shelves”—Boston Courier.
⁂ This extraordinary work is printed in London and the price there at present is £2. 5s. 0d. or about $12. A large part of the edition having been purchased for this market, it is furnished here for the very low price of $6, bound in cloth.
