The Merry Wives of Windsor / The Works of William Shakespeare [Cambridge Edition] [9 vols.]

MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR. ACT I. I. 1 Scene I. Windsor. Before

General Notes are in their original location at the end of the Folio text, followed by the text-critical notes originally printed at the bottom of each page. All notes are hyperlinked in both directions. In dialogue, a link from a speaker’s name generally means that the note applies to the entire line or group of lines. The Quarto text is given separately, after all Notes.

Line numbers—shown in the right margin and used for all notes—are from the original text. In prose passages the exact line counts will depend on your browser settings, and will probably be different from the displayed numbers. Stage directions were not included in the line numbering.
