-"'''A Groatsworth of Wit'''" was a pamphlet written in [[1592]] by playwright [[Robert Greene]] on his deathbed which was about [[William Shakespeare]]. According to a staff member at the [[Books Unltd.]] bookshop, it helped date Shakespeare's early plays, because of Green quoting from "One of the Henrys". He said it was lucky for Greene that he wrote about the Bard, "or we'd never have heard of him". ([[COMIC]]: ''[[A Groatsworth of Wit (comic story)|A Groatsworth of Wit]]'')
