shakespesre,s Anachronisms.

Virgil made .Eneas land at a port
which had no existence until couple of
hundred years before the poets own
time, and in three separate places re-
wives characters killed earlier in the
poem. The anachronisms of Shakespeare
are legion. In the "Winter's Tale" he
speaks Of the coast of Bohemia, an inland
country, and in "Coriolanus" calls
Delphi an island, whereas it is city of
Greece. The ''beetling cliffs of Elsinore"
are mentioned, but Elsinore has no cliffs,
while although the Danes were, in Ham,
let's time, pagans, the Ghost in "Ham-
let" speaks of absolution and purgatory.
In "Twelfth Night" the Clown in Illyria
speaks of st. Bennets church in London.
In Julius Caesar" Brutus tells Cassius,
peace, count the clock" and Cassius
answers, "The clock has stricken g."
when striking clocks were not invented
for 1, 400 years after that time.
Hamlet is said to be educated at a
school which, in his time, had no exist
ence, and Menenius, in "Coriolanus," :"
mentions Galen over 600 years before the
latter was born. In the play of Henry w
turkeys are spoken of 100 years before
the discovery of America, whence they
came; Hector is made to quote Aristotle;
Cleopatra's palace is fitted out with a
billiard table, and Tunis and Naples are
spoken of as though at an imIneasurable
distance from each other.-St. Louis
