The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 13.0050 Saturday, 12 January 2002 From: Mike Jensen <This email address is being protected from spambots.

She would like to take along an appropriate book. Wordsworth is always possible, but she wonders if the is an anthology of Lake District poets, or just of Lake District writers for a bit of variety. Books in print are preferred to books not in print. A book that does not weigh very much would also be nice. She'd appreciate any suggestions. All the best, Mike Jensen _______________________________________________________________ S H A K S P E R: The Global Shakespeare Discussion List Hardy M.

The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 13.0049 Saturday, 12 January 2002 From: Martin Steward <This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. > Date: Wednesday, 9 Jan 2002 10:20:58 -0000 Subject: "the sunden stab"??? This is not Shakespeare, but concerns a play which imitates one of Shakespeare's. In John Day's Law-Trickes (Quarto 1608; 1st perf. 1604), there is the following passage: Duke Ferneze. Fie, Polymetes, though the robe of learning, Sit comely on a Prince, yet weane thy thoughts From this ftrict contemplation, and embrace Publique affemblies, knightly exercife. Polymetes. How?s that? to fweare and give the funden ftab? Sell Lands to purchafe fafhions? O tis bafe! Bought gentrie, fhould true-borne worth difgrace. (sig.Br; Act I, ll.146-153) Does anyone have any idea what the "funden", or more likely "sunden" means? OED does not list either variant. Thanks in anticipation, m _______________________________________________________________ S H A K S P E R: The Global Shakespeare Discussion List Hardy M.
