Excerpt from A New Shakespearean Dictionary Quotations as well as references to the text have throughout been appended to the definitions. In the case of a work of this nature mere references are of little service, as, apart from the trouble and loss of time involved in referring to the text, there cannot, if references only are given, be the same facility of comparison, and of seeing how the use of a word in one passage throws light on its use in another, as is afforded by the passages being exhibited to the eye together. It has not been possible to make the references and quotations exhaustive; and in the cases of words and senses of frequent occurrence I have accordingly generally limited myself to three or four. Where not more than two are given it may, as a rule, be assumed that there are no other clear examples of the use. The references are to the Globe edition, and for the quotations that text has been used. In printing the quotations the only deviation from the Globe text which I have allowed myself, in addition to a few mentioned in the body of the work, is the omission of the apostrophe in genuine aphetic forms such as gin, gree, long, and in a In a few cases, where a portion only of a sentence has been quoted, it has been necessary slightly to modify the punctuation. I have found that later issues of the Globe differ somewhat from the first issue, and have recorded one or two such differences which I have noticed. The Works are cited substantially as in Schmidt's Lexicon. A table of the contractions used, which for the most part explain themselves, is appended. Small numerals attached to leading words indicate that the words so distinguished, although identical in form, differ in origin.
