"We are too hasty when we set down our ancestors in the gross
for fools for the monstrous inconsistencies (as they seem to us)
involved in their creed of witchcraft."
C. LAMB.
"But I will say, of Shakspere's
works generally, that we have no full impress of him there, even as
full as we have of many men. His works are so many windows, through
which we see a glimpse of the world that was in him."
T. CARLYLE.
