Synopsis
Excerpt from A Study in the Warwickshire Dialect
IS there any possible room for a doubt as to Shakespeare's authorship Of the poems so univer sally conceded to be his?
The earliest collected edition of his works did not include them. But this may have been because Of their non-dramatic character.
Late in I6 I6 (the year in which Shakespeare died, April one of these poems, the Lucrece, was printed in the usual quarto form with many varia tions from the text Of May 9, 1594, with a state ment on the title-page that it was newly revised and corrected. As Shakespeare was dead, some body still alive, it would seem, felt a supervisory interest in the poems, or at least in one Of them.
There is supposed to be internal evidence enough that the poems are all by the same author; at least, the inclusion of one by Heywood - which was removed from that collection on his protest - and Of the one by Marlowe (which is still printed in the series known as The Passionate Pilgrim does not interfere with that evidence.
