Excerpt from All's Well, That Ends Well There is no external evidence that will enable us to ascertain the date of composition of All'r Well, rbat End: Well within positive limits: in the well-known list of Meres in his Palladi: Tamia of 1598 there is mention of a play called Love's Labour's Won, ' and there are passages in All'r Well which, as well as the general theme of the play, support the conclusion that it is possibly the one referred to. Various critics at different times have tried to identify Love's Labour's Won' with the Taming of tbe Sbrew, the Tempest and M ucb Ada about Natbirzg respectively: but there are grave objections to each of these, and it is now generally admitted that either Love's Labour's Won' has been lost, or that it was the original title of the present play. If the latter alternative is taken, we should be able to assume not only that the play was written before 1598, but also that it followed Love's Labour': Lost at no very great interval.
