There's a distinct problem with this text; it has apostrophes. The original edition by George Bernard Shaw lacked (at least some) apostrophes; see this edition for one. Shaw was a constant pusher of orthography reform. IIRC, Sobol added the apostrophes missing in her edition when producing the Gutenberg one.--Prosfilaes (talk) 21:10, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
