So. . .with this caveat. . .we have NOT changed the canon errors,
here is the Project Gutenberg Etext of Shakespeare's First Folio.

Scanner's Notes: What this is and isn't. This is a copy of
Shakespeare's first folio and it is as close as I can come in
ASCII to the printed text.
The play Pericles, Prince of Tyre is missing from this edition
of the First Folio because it wasn't printed in the First Folio.
The Sonnets and other poems of Shakespeare are also missing
because they also were not printed in the First Folio.
The elongated S's have been changed to small s's and the
conjoined ae have been changed to ae. I have left the spelling,
punctuation, capitalization as close as possible to the
printed text. I have corrected some spelling mistakes (I have put
together a spelling dictionary devised from the spellings of the
Geneva Bible and Shakespeare's First Folio and have unified
spellings according to this template), typo's and expanded
abbreviations as I have come across them. Everything within
brackets [] is what I have added. So if you don't like that
you can delete everything within the brackets if you want a
purer Shakespeare.
Another thing that you should be aware of is that there are textual
differences between various copies of the first folio. So there may
be differences (other than what I have mentioned above) between
this and other first folio editions.
