3.0 Snort, as if Shakespeare
I know it is popular in some circles to say that Marlowe wrote all of Shakespeare. Sorry Kit, your Passionate Sheperd is a beautiful poem, but it is the only reason why this is three stories. Your other poetry proves that you so did not write Shakespeare. Shakespeare did.
