Excerpt from As You Like It: A Pleasant ComedyThe merit of a narrative depends largely upon the way in which the narrator handles the plot. The interest awakened by the complication and unravelling of incident is often greater than the interest in thedelineation and development of character. In the play of As you Like it, however, the plot is most simple. It is a love story in which Orlando is the hero and Rosalind the heroine. At the beginning we find the circumstances of the two lovers most adverse. Rosalind is under a cloud of melancholy, deprived of her father''s companionship out of suite with fortune. Soon she is harshly driven from her uncle''s court to be comforted only by her faithful cousin, by the witty Touchstone and by the buoyancy of her own spirits. In like manner Orlando is described as suffering injustice from the hands of a jealous brother and as being forced to exchange at last the transitory sweets of royal favour for the bitterness of prejudice, mistrust and exile. He, too, finds fortune a cruel mistress, but is comfort ed by tho constant service of loyal Adam and by the opportunity to express his fervent love for the fair Rosalind. The friendless condition of Orlando has already touched the warm sympathies of Rosalind.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
