Summary: "Many years ago the late Augustin Daly made a brief revival in New York of Love's Labor's Lost, the earliest and in most respects the poorest of the plays of Shakespeare. There had been no public demand for the piece; there was no popular approval of the presentation: but, when a friend asked Mr. Daly why he had spent his money in such an undertaking, the manager replied, "My brother, the Judge, had never seen the play and asked me for an opportunity to have a look at it." —Preface
