Sonnet 146


This day, faire gentles, I have for thee a pensive sonnet on the nature of the body and desire as it doth hinder the soul.

Her Majestie did not suffer the insulte lightlie and had Babington executed, though he did offer to pay his owne ransom at £1000.

Will's Spaces and Places

 
 
 
Good eve, groundlyngs! Today I hath thought to presente to thee some knowledge of mine spaces and spaces. Here thou canst observe the discoverie space from mine theatre. When the curtains are pull'd back, some tableau doth greet the eyes... of the audience. I hath writ a scene for the discovery space in mine The Tempest, wherein Miranda and Ferdinand do playe at chess. Marlowe didst use this space when we do finde Doctor Faustus in his study. And Thomas Middleton didst thrust an entire bed, Mistress Allwit on it, onto the stage in his playe of A Chaste Maid in Cheapside.
