16、Toby,“ he said. “So much to learn.“ 21Will had a lot to learn about women, too. One day in October 1582, he came to my house with a gloomy face. 22“Ill never leave Stratford.“ he said. “Im going to be married in a few weeks time. To Anne Hathaway.“ 23Will married Anne Hathaway in November, and she came to live in Henley Street. Families cost a lot of money, and John Shakespeare was having a lot of money troubles in those days.
