Ratings and reviews

These additions are a great way to understand the actual text without a struggle. It also saves an individual a tremendous amount of time especially when there are multiple classes that require other texts to be read. In a way the translation shows you how to read the original because this isn't too simplified and the fact that the original is written right underneath gives you a chance to learn to read the original. But there are errors in the translations that should be proof read, and many times I'm not able to go back to the text because your website glitches where I'm not able to access the text.

This has the modern text in italics, followed by the original text afterwards. It makes for an easy to read Shakespeare experience where you can easily compare the two as you read along.

A wonderful timeless play...
