Shakespeare's will begins... «Shakespeare: A Life»
innashpitzberg16 сентября 2013Shakespeare's will begins with a declaration very similar to openings found in some of the 134 wills, made by other theatre people, which still exist from that time for comparison:
In the name of God Amen. I William Shackspeare of Stratford upon Avon in the county of Warwickshire gent., in perfect health & memory God be praised, do make & ordain this my last will & testament in manner & form following. That is to say first, I commend my Soul into the hands of God my Creator, hoping & assuredly believing through the only merits of Jesus Christ my Saviour to be made partaker of life everlasting. And my body to the earth whereof it is made.
