Couldn't recommend this enough! I've been using this app for several years. It keeps me from having to lug my giant lexicon dictionaries around when I need to analyze text.

As an actor who focuses on Shakespeare’s work, I cannot recommend this app enough. It is invaluable for working on monologues, and makes it easier to dive into text.

Not up to date
I think it has been a long time since this app has been updated. None of the links to the text are active. Also, the formatting of each entry is very hard to read the is essentially no spacing at all. This app is a great idea but it could use a lot of work

Have my MFA in classical acting. I used this lexicon resource every day to help me understand all his texts. Life saver!
