Excerpt from Shakspeare's Seven Ages of Man: Or, the Progress of Human Life; Illustrated by Prose and Verse, From the Works of the Most Eminent Writers; With a Brief Memoirs of Shakspeare and His Writings
IT is. Almost incredible how little is known of the british bard. By a strange kind of fatality, says Miss Aikin in her interesting Memoirs of the Court of Queen Elizabeth, which excites at once our surprise and our unavailing regrets, the domestic and literary history of this great lumlnary of his age, are almost equally enveloped in doubt and obscurity. The account Of his career, there fore, is dark and imperfect throughout the whole of its progress. Gleanings alone may be said to. Constitute his scanty biography.
