articles on Shakespeare's nlays. closing "a
follows: What desire to do aud design
to attempt is a work which has nothing in
common with the peremptory pretensions
Of commentators who seek, by dint of posi-
tive assertions or endless wraneling to e.
tablish as matter Of creed what can never
be more than Q matter of opinion: it is to
arrange in their several classes the PLAYS Of
Shakespeare according to their order of

by computation of priority; to take account
OF them by style, and not by date"
