Summary

In this admirable edition of Shakespeare's Poems, which seems likely to appear at much the same time as my own edition of the Sonnets, my friend Professor James Maxwell adds the last volume to the series of texts which he has been good enough to undertake during the past decade, and so enables me to reach the end of the long road entered upon in 1919. I am also heavily indebted to him for help, especially during my period of blindness, for corrections in earlier volumes as they came up for reprint; but my gratitude to him is boundless.
