The Open Source Shakespeare site provides the complete texts of Shakespeare's plays. As well a concordance, a keyword search, statistics, character search, as well as an ordering of plays by genre, by number of lines, and chronologically.
Could we pick an Irish playwright (out of copyright obviously) and do the same, e.g. Dion Boucicault, Edward Plunkett (Lord Dunsany), Lady Gregory, Richard Brinsley Sheridan, W.B. Yeats, or another Tudor playwright, e.g. Christopher Marlowe, William Rowley, Ben Jonson, or even some classical playwrights, e.g. Aeschylus, Sophocles, or Euripides.
