I am adding a new feature to Shakespeare Audios which I have called Shakespeare Playhouse - it will replace the Plays & Info pages and - hopefully - will be a place to click around and explore the plays with it's speeches, movies. documentaries and audio ofcourse. It will still take some time before all is finished but there is allready a lot editing done. Working on it (february 2024)

Random Sonnet

Those parts of thee that the world’s eye doth view
Want nothing that the thought of hearts can mend;
All tongues, the voice of souls, give thee that due,
Uttering bare truth, even so as foes commend.
Thy outward thus with outward praise is crown’d;
But those same tongues that give thee so thine own
In other accents do this praise confound
By seeing farther than the eye hath shown.
They look into the beauty of thy mind,
And that, in guess, they measure by thy deeds;
Then, churls, their thoughts, although their eyes were kind,
To thy fair flower add the rank smell of weeds:
But why thy odour matcheth not thy show,
The soil is this, that thou dost common grow.
