Re: Shakespeare?



>2. Did Wm. Shakespeare ever write anything about irises?

For wheresoe'er thou art in this world's globe,
I'll have an Iris that shall find thee out.
                --King Henry VI, Act 3, Scene 2

His crest that prouder than blue iris bends.
                --Troilus and Cressida, Act 1, Scene 3

The many-colour'd iris, rounds thine eye? 
                --All's Well That Ends Well, Act1, Scene 3
