Excerpt from An Index to the Works of Shakespeare: Giving References, by Topics, to Notable Passages and Significant Expressions; Brief Histories of the Plays; Geographical Names and Historical Incidents; Mention of All Characters and Sketches of Important Ones IT has been my intention to refer, in the following pages, to every passage of any importance under the word that best expresses its subject, whether that word is in the text or not, and in cases of doubt as to what word a pas sage would be looked for under, I have entered it under two or more. But, that significant expressions may be found readily, I have also indexed under their most prominent word all that seemed to me to be such. To have indexed all expressions under their principal words, would have been to make a phrase-concordance, which we already have, and would defeat the aim of this book by overloading it and wearying the student with references to a mass of unimportant allusions. Here the question of judgment necessarily comes in, and I may have omitted some references that a better editor would deem as sig nificant as many that are included. I trust, however, that references to passages of importance under each topic will not be found wanting. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
