Virginibus Puerisque Summary
| A young man was telling me the sweet story of his loves. "I like it well enough as long as her sisters are there," said this amorous swain; "but I don't know what to do when we're alone." |

| Virginibus Puerisque was Robert Louis Stevenson's earliest volume of collected papers, most having been published originally in British magazines between 1876-79. Contents: "Virginibus Puerisque," "Crabbed Age and Youth," "An Apology For Idlers," "Ordered South," "Aes Triplex," "El Dorado," "The English Admirals," "Some Portraits by Raeburn," "Child's Play," "Walking Tours," "Pan's Pipes," "A Plea For Gas Lamps." |

| With the single exception of Falstaff, all Shakespeare's characters are what we call marrying men. Mercutio, as he was own cousin to Benedick and Biron, would have come to the same end in the long run. Even Iago had a wife, and, what is far stranger, he was jealous. People like Jacques and the Fool in LEAR, although we can hardly imagine they would ever marry, kept single out of a cynical humour or for a broken heart, and not, as we do nowadays, from a spirit of incredulity and preference for the single state. |
