| If you're having trouble understanding the play you can go here:http://www.nfs.sparknotes.comIt has side by side modern translations. However, please be aware that the more you read Sakespeare the easier it is to understand. People don't take kindly to being asked to do homework. We WANT you to learn to love Shakespeare. |
