enriched English literature with his writing. His writing skill and
language
was so mature that it went deep into people’s hearts. His
knowledge of human
nature was great and his ability to sense people’s reaction in
any particular

the
corporation. He was admitted to a good school in Stratford. During his
childhood, he used to see plays performed by travelling bands of actors
in his
town.

eighteen. His wife was eight years older than him. He joined a company
of
actors and went with them to London. In 1592, he became well-known as a
