All for Love was first played by the King's Company at Drury Lane in the winter of 1677-78. Dryden had previously advocated rhyme as the proper medium for tragedy, but in All for Love he felt a need for greater freedom of expression: ' In my stile I have profess'd to imitate the divine Shakespere; which that I might perform more freely, I have disencumber'd myself from rhyme. Not that I condemn my former way, but that is more proper to my present purpose.'

Last of three talks by PROFESSOR RANDOLPH QUIRK
First is to be heard a passage from Gud Nius Mark i Raitim, the Gospel according to St. Mark in the Neo-Melanesian language. This rich, consistent, systematised form of ' pidgin English,' spoken in New Guinea, is virtually a foreign language-differing as much from the English we speak as modern Portuguese, say, differs from the Latin of Cicero.
