Chapter 10 Back to Stratford

　　'You're losing your hair, Will,' I said to him one day.

　　'We're both getting old, Toby,' he said. 'There's no escape from it. Old and tired.'

　　'Don't talk like that,' I said. 'You're only forty-seven. There's still some life in you yet. And another twenty plays!'

　　'No,' he said slowly. 'No, I think the poetry is nearly finished. I'm getting tired, Toby. I need a rest. I think The Tempest is going to be my last play. I'm saying goodbye to the stage. (1)+(2) '

　　He never usually talked like this, and I didn't like it.

　　'There's only one Will Shakespeare, 'I said, 'and he'll always be modern. Now, I must get on. I've got to go out and buy all the cloth for the new costumes in The Tempest. Why did you have to put it on an island? (3) It takes a day to dry the costumes, so that means two lots of clothes for everyone—wet and dry!'

　　That brought him back to life. 'Can't you read?' he said crossly. 'If you look at Gonzalo's words in Act 2, Toby, you'll see that it's a magic island—and their clothes stay dry all the time. So they'll only need one lot.'

　　I laughed, and then he laughed too.

　　But it was true, he was tried. I could see it, and others could see it too. But the company was always wanting new plays, and we had two theatres now. There was the Globe, and now we had the Blackfriars theatre. (4) We could put on plays in the evenings and in any weather. (5) In the Globe they paid a penny to stand.
