Excerpt from Shakespeare's Medical Knowledge
Why should not we of the Healing Art claim our share in Glorious Will? Lord, Chancellor Campbell has written a book, in which he claims that Shakespeare in his youth must have been at least an attorney's clerk, if not something more, for such is the famili arity with legal matters carelessly betrayed in the poet's writings. It may sound pre sumptuous to say that the Lord Chancellor, in his law argument, might easily mend his instances but literature is a republic in which there are no privileged orders.
