Florio translates that particular sentence: "The world runs all on wheels" a bad rendering.

It was long supposed that the autograph of Shakespeare in a copy of Florio's translation showed his study of the Essays.

During her late residence at Moscow, her companion Florio, was involved in a very unpleasant affair.

Now in a copy of Florio's "Montaigne" there was found some years ago one of the very few genuine Shakespeare signatures.
