The text is taken from the Norton Critical Edition and includes a preface and footnotes by Byrus Hoy, professor emeritus at the University of Rochester. The preface speaks to the choice of text—primarily the second quarto with reliance on the folio as necessary—and places it in the context of its times and of the evolving criticism of the play.
