The standard edition of the pictorial Shakspere . he work of other men. Who but Shaksperecould have written The blind mole castsCoppd hills towards heaven, to tell, the earth is throngdBy mans oppression; and the poor worm doth die for t. And yet this passage comes naturally enough in a speech of no very high purpurei patini must be fitted to a body, as well for use as for adornment. We thinkthat Shakspere would not have taken the trouble to produce these costly robes for thedecoration of what another had essentially created. We are willing to believe that, evenin the very height of his fame, he would have bestowed any amount of labour for theimprovement of an early production of his own, if the taste of his audiences had fromtime to time demanded its continuance upon the stage. It is for this reason that wethink that the Pericles of the beginning of the seventeenth century was the revival of aplay written by Shakspere some twenty years earlier. * History of Literature, vol. iii. p. 569. 119 r*/ ilh X^.
