THE
_Parchment Shakspere._
NEW EDITION OF SHAKSPERE'S WORKS,
Bound in parchment, uncut, gilt top.
New York:
D. APPLETON AND COMPANY,
1, 3, AND 5 BOND STREET.
This edition is being printed with new type, cast
expressly for the work, on laid linen paper, and in a
form and style which give it peculiar elegance. The text
is mainly that of DELIUS, the chief difference
consisting in a more sparing use of punctuation than
that employed by the well-known German editor. Wherever
a variant reading is adopted, some good and recognized
SHAKSPEREAN critic has been followed. In no case is a
new rendering of the text proposed; nor has it been
thought necessary to distract the reader's attention by
notes or comments.
"_There is, perhaps no edition in which the works of
Shakspere can be read in such luxury of type, and quiet
distinction of form, as this._"--PALL MALL GAZETTE.
