Excerpt from Shakspere Typography: Being an Attempt to Show Shakspere's Personal Connection, With and Technical Knowledge of the Art of Printing; Also, Remarks Upon Some Common Typographical Errors, With Especial Reference to the Text of Shakspere The First Chapter of this Tractate is designed to show, in a succint manner, the numerous and contradictory theories concerning Shakspere's special knowledge, the evidence for which has been created by "selecting" certain words and phrases from the mass of his writings. The Second and Third Chapters, erected on a similar basis of "selection," are intended to prove that Shakspere had an intimate and special knowledge of Typography. Old Printers can still call to mind that period of our history when a stalwart Pressman, on his way to work, ran considerable risk in the streets of London of being seized by another kind of pressmen, viz, the Press-gang, and forced nolens volens into the service of the King. Some readers (not Printers) may think that I have exercised over quotations from Shakspere's works a similar compulsion, by pressing into my service passages whose bearing is by no means in a typographical direction.
