Excerpt from The Text of Henry VNow as to the most obvious differences between the Folio and the Quartos. The Folio in the reprint by the Shakespeare Society of New York runs to lines, the Quarto only to 1721. And even this number is less than it appears. The Quarto has a trick of splitting up its prose into very short lines in order to give it the appearance of poetry. This, of course, increases the number of lines. Estimated purely by the number of words, the advantage of the Folio would be much greater.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
