Excerpt from The Succession of Shakspere's Works and the Use of Metrical Test in Settling It, &C: Being the Introduction to Professor Gervinus's "Commentaries on Shakspere"

Shakspere's course is thus shown to have run from the amorous ness and fun of youth, through the strong patriotism of early manhood, to the wrestling with the dark problems that beset the man of middle age to the time of gloom which weighd on Shakspere (as on so many men) in later life, when, though outwardly successful, the World seemd all against him, and his mind dwelt with sympathy on scenes of faithlessness of friends, treachery of relations and subjects, ingratitude of children, scorn of his kind; till at last, in his Stratford home again, peace came to him, Miranda and Perdita in their lovely freshness and charm greeted him, and he was laid by his quiet Avon's side.
