Shakespeare are many and great. AS
a matter of fact, the early plays are
too ~delicately observant, too full of
fancy and the sheer CLINT of ~fairyland,
to catch the average intelligence; the
later plays are simply too difficult to
understand. The obscurity of Brown
ing is a fashionable phrase, but the
obscurity of Browning is transparent
compared with h ~obscurity of "Troi-
lus and Cressida" or "Timon of Ath-
ems"
That it would be a contamination
devoutly to be wished that Shakes
peare should be popular is u~nquestion-
able, but the noblest course in life is
to look facts squarely il the ace and
then shape one conduct as wisely
as one may. And it is futile to concur
in the popular fallacy that the average
man reads Shakespeare for amuse-
ment, because he not. Tolstoy
and Maeterlinck to the contrary not

life is still far in advance of that of
the mass OF mankind, and we still go
to him only when We are not too wea-
ry to climb the sleeps of his thought.
