They're not even written in "Old English", just an early version of modern English. Old English looks like this: http://www.lowlands-l.net/anniversary/i ... lisc2B.gif

I'd suggest having a dictionary nearby when reading Shakespeare. Otherwise it's not too hard to understand once you get used to the language. :)
If you read his plays a lot like me, you'll actually start speaking like him! :O It's true!

I don't think I've ever read Shakespeare, but I;ve had my paws on the book and flipped through it a bit.. it was written in a play version so I didn't bother to read it. lol

I love Shakesphere
My grandfather bought me the Complete Tales leatherbound book from Barnes and Noble as a New Years present.
I absolutely love it, personally my favorite stories are Julius Ceasar, Hamlet and Macbeth.

The only book that I read from Shakespeare was the poem "Romeo and Juliet"

Romeo and Juliet was awesome. So romantic... :happythoughts: but sad... :cry:
And I don't think Shakespeare's language is all THAT hard to understand. Yes I am very mature for 13 lol. :confident:
