Supposed to be a comedy

This is supposed to be a comedy, but it did not have me laughing. The beginning was fun and entertaining. There were some amusing conversations where wordsmiths played with witty homophones, and scenes where characters were pranked, but the crux of the story was sadistic in nature. I was put off by vile stereotypes, but then it was written in the 16th century.
