The Monitor. . . [3 paragraphs concerning grief]
This brings to my mind a passage, exquisitely well copied
from nature, in the character of Shakespear's Macduff. . .
[6 lines from Macbeth]
--- I shall do so;
But I must also feel it like a man:
I cannot but remember such things were,
That were most precious to me!
. . . [3 more paragraphs are followed by this quotation from
Hamlet]
--'Tis sweet,
And commendable in your nature, Hamlet,
To give these mourning duties to your father,
That father lost, lost his; and the survivor bound
In filial obligation, for some term,
To do obsequious sorrow. . .
[12 more lines]
