Excerpt from Mistress Davenant, the Dark Lady of Shakespeare's Sonnets: Demonstrating the Identity of the Dark Lady of the Sonnets, and the Authorship and Satirical Intention of Willobie His Avisa; With a Reprint of Willobie His Avisa (in Part), Penelope's Complaint, an Elegie While I defer publication of the results of my investiga tions of the plays made from a personal point of view, and also of my complete rearrangement of the Sonnets into their original books, for the guidance of the reader in following the present argument, I shall in this preface give a brief chronological outline of my fuller theory, without advancing detailed evidence in its support. This, for the present, the reader may, if he wishes, regard merely as a working hypothesis. Whether he does so or not in the light of the evidence I adduce regarding Shakespeare's connection with the Bar.
