Gammer Gurton's Needle is a play written by John Still in the 16th century. The play is set in a small English village and revolves around the loss and recovery of a needle belonging to Gammer Gurton, an elderly widow. The needle is of great sentimental value to Gammer Gurton, and its loss causes her great distress. The play follows the comical efforts of the villagers to find the needle, which eventually leads to the discovery of a thief in their midst. The play is a classic example of English Renaissance drama and is known for its use of rustic language and humor. John Still's 1920 edition of the play includes a detailed introduction and notes on the historical context and language of the text.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
