The Full Text

Click the image to find a complete copy of the full text. It's not long, so I strongly suggest printing a copy and making meaningful annotations as you read. You will likely rely on these later, when it comes to assessments. 

You can also find an simple digital copy on the Guttenberg Library here

Study Guide

Use this study guide (click the image) and its resources as you read. This only provides a very general overview of the play, its themes, characters and symbols, its context, and how you should approach the analysis of choices in a play.
