An EIOquen Passage OLA Shakespeare
LORD JEFFREY.

Hazlitt has acquitted himself excellenily;
partly in the development of the principal
characters with which Shakespeare I'as peopled
the fAncies of all English readerS-5ut princl-
paliy, we think, in the delicate Spnslhllty
with which he has traced, and the natural el-
oquence with which he has pointed out that
.ond familiarity with beautiful forms and INA.
geS-that eternal recurrence To what ~ sweet
or majestic in the simple aspects of nA'urr-
that indeStrucii5le love of flowers and olors,
and dews and waters. and soft 'irs aEu sounds,
and bright skies, and woodland soliindes, and
moonlight bowers, which are the material ell
ements Of poetry-and that fine sense of their
undefnable relation TO mental emotion, which
is its essence and vivifyl"g SonI-and which,
in the mdS: Of ShAkspeare's most busy and
atrocious scenes, falls like CLEANS ofSunshne
on rocks and IuinS-conlrasllng with all that
is rugged and rrpusve, and reminding us of
tie existence Of pnrrr aud brighter elements!
which he alone has poured ont from the
richness of his own mind, without effort or
restraint, and contrived to int,rlnlngle with
the play of all the passions, and the vulgar
course Of this worlds affairs, without desert
lug for an instant the proper business OF the
scene, or appearing to pause or digrrss, from
love Of ornament or need Of Eepose! He alone,
who, when the object requires II, Is always
keen, and worldly, and practical-and who
vet. without changing his hand, or stopping
his course, scatters around him as he goes, all
sounds and shapes # sweetness-and con-
jures up landscapes Of immortal fragrance and
freshness, and peoples them with spirits OF
glorious aspect and attractive artce-and Is a
thousand times more full Of fIncy, and lln'
agery, and splendoI, than those who, In pur'
Suil of such ench ailments. have shrunk back
from the delineaton of character or passion
and declined the discussion of human duties
and cares. More full Of wisdom and rld'cule
and sagacity, than all the moralistS and satlr
lists that ever existed-he is more Wild airy
and inventive, and more pathetic and fantastic
than all the poets of all regions md ages o.
the world: and has all those elements so hap
PLY mixed up in him, and bears his high FAC
uties so temporarily, that the most severe
reader cannot complain of him tor Want
strength or Of reason-nor the most sensitive
f,r defect Of ornament or ing nuity. Every
thing in him is in unmeasured abundance, ant
unequalled perfection-bui everything SO bal
anced and kept in standardization, as not to JOS
tie or disturb or take the place Of another.-
The most exquisite poetical conceptions, ina
ges. and descriptions, are given with sucl
brevity and introduced with such skill, a
