Description:This collection in honor of Thomas Clayton takes its title from Romeo and Juliet (4.1.21). Meeting Paris in Friar Lawrence's cell, Juliet muses, "What must be shall be, " and the Friar completes her line with, "That's a certain text."

Essays on literary editing include Richard Proudfoot's on the early printing history of Mucedorus, David Haley's on "the most famous crux in Shakespeare, " and Janis Lull's on the "End of Editing Shakespeare, " Linda Anderson, Stephen Booth, Jay Halio, and Joyce Sutphen offer close readings of the Merry Wives of Windsor, The Taming of the Shrew, Hamlet, and The Sonnets, respectively. Achsah Guibbory writes about Robert Herrick and the Hebrew Bible, and Daniel Hooley treats Ben Jonson's classicism.
