PREFACE
As many were not able to secure all the Acts of A Comedy of Errors
owing to the editions having been exhausted, and as numerous friends have expressed a desire to secure it entire, the author has concluded to publish it, supplemented by four more recent compositions.
With malice towards none and charity to all, this modest booklet is launched on the uncertain sea of literature.
—Old Fogy.
Manila, November 15th, 1914.
