Description
This is a notes book. In my last communication on the subject of Henry VIII. , I referred to certain characteristic tricks of Fletcher's style of frequent occurrence in that play, and I now beg leave to furnish you with a few instances. I wish it, however, to be understood, that I advance these merely as illustrative specimens selected at random; as there is scarcely a line of the portions of the play I assume to be Fletcher's but would furnish some evidence to a diligent student of this writer's style: and that, although I think each separate instance as strongly characteristic of Fletcher as it is unlike Shakspeare, it is only in their aggregate number that I insist upon their importance. The first instance to which I call attention is the use of the substantive 'one' in a manner which, though not very uncommon, is used by no writer so frequently as Fletcher.
