  <dc:title>All the Worlds a Stage</dc:title>
  <dc:description>A young woman reclines in clouds, in her hand is a piece of paper marked
'Original Sketches from Life etc Book III and above her head is written 'Drawn by George Murgatroyd Woodward'.

Below her is a stage, peopled with tiny figures, and entitled:
'Shakespears Characters'.   Beneath the stage, two lounging satyrs point to an inscription:
'Out of a Mountain came a Mountain of delight.  Laughter […] out to see the sign.  Falstaff was his name. And Lo. Sir John'.

On the verso is a contents list for the sketchbook:

'Containing : 1 Amusement for Leisure Hours : 2 A Peep into Surgeons Hall : 4 The Temple of Hymen : 5 A Visit to Vauxhall : and : A Visit to the Playhouse : G M Woodward Script'</dc:description>
