In fact every tea,- étoward the beauti- Ity and community Fe should meet with ind active cg-opera- Author of “The _ 'As to the Bresentation ofr‘these plays on the modern stage Shakes- peare has with wonderful skill, contrived that all the worst scenes of his tragedies are hidden from ac- tual sight. We know the deed of‘ Macbeth m that back room th0ugh we do not see it. So continued are the» crimes ofRichard and the base deeds. .of Falstaff that we never need see one of th'em in the actual: trahsact‘ibn although they, No more vivid picture of forceâ€" ful lust has ever been written than the Rape of Lucrece but its lesson is in the. detection 'and death of 'Tarquin while there ‘is thrown upo‘n the canvas the perfect por- traiture of chastity and loyal wife- 'hood stronger and purer than life itself. ' Not even in his earlier poems has Shakespeare made the pursuit of lust- or crime to bring enjoy- ment or enduring pleasure- Nem~ esis follows always With unerring mark. His sonnets are conceived in the spirit of ancient poetry with something of the love strains of Solomon’s song but thev constant- ly bring before us the beauty of- virtue and the hideousness of‘sin. Claudius secures the throne of Denmark by poisoning his brother {and he with his guilty partner, Gertrude. are onilthe throne; bUt to what end? Are they happy? Does Shakespeare show them living in long undisturbed; pleasure With the spoils of their deed of crime? ,He shows‘them skillful to eover up the deed from human eye but the unerring. mark of nemesis atâ€" tends them all through. Mabeth ’and Lady Macbeth are on the throne But Shakespeare shows them 'unhappy and moving" steadily foward t6 remorse and death. L Shakespgare 'makes crime hid- eous‘. He shows its moral de- for-mity and brings it to an inevit- a’bxle nemesis.‘ He‘does not exalt evrl. ‘ While sometimes he'shovws it prosperous for a time, he brings .it to inevitable judgments. Rich- ard the Third- does gnot end in a glow of conquest arnidst showers of congratulations but- he dies horribly after an experience bor2 dlering upon madness as he looks into the mirror of himself. But all ,the greater is the lesson which always attends it. 'l_'h¢ mind of the .spgctator is carried fonvard to the issue of the 'great passion or the gigantic crime. It {s fine that the great drama- tist has draw) some pictures of {horrible crimé that our feglings are moved and our souls are har- rowed with horror. 'Therein is be master painter and there We be- hold the crime ,in all its rcalness. There is'all the difference of light against darkness in the moral inculcation of a Shakespeare dram nd such. plays as are now com n on the mOderu s‘tagc- . How absolutely different is this from the modern society play in which the vil’est practices are_dis- played, or suggested. with glow- lug pittures of festive life and the mos; revolting deeds of the Underâ€" world of ‘so-called pleasure are dressed up .in gay delights, 7 and heid up in the lim'clighti without the centcxtfwould make them extremely obiectionable- Shakespeare did not Hescribe hisfchdracters as a no‘veliSt does. bUl m the art ofa dramatist he made the charaCters ‘ describe themselves. Thus lustful, gross and criminal persons drew their nwn portraits. They were as true as amirrorreflection, ‘ A eoward a brawler, a rioter, a murderer ap- peared as such: but the play never left the character in doubt. One can never rise from a true present- ation of a Shakespeare play with- out feeling that he makes all these things odious.
