Puzzles and Games

Lines from Shakespeare have become so ingrained in our language that they may be uttered with little recognition. The "sea change," "What fools these mortals be!"--even those who know the words to be Shakespeare's could be hard put to set them in their contexts. Each card in this deck presents a familiar quotation from a Shakespeare play on one side; the other side offers the play's title and a sketch of the situation from which the words arise. Highly entertaining as a solitary diversion or guessing game.
