It wero donoe quickly, 1f the assnssination coutd trammol up the conscquence.” *“'This ronding,"” says tho critic, “is 5o manifeutly foreign to tho meaning of tho liuos ns to apponr abwurd, and, as hny been said, tonds to produce o damaging catimato of tho ncfor's ability to understand tho role, and 80 worka an injustice.” Now, that reading, it sooms tomo, is the only one which does notmake tho passago absurd ; aud, at tho timo Mr. Lov- lck ontored to deliver tho soliloquy, I was curious to sco if Lio would follow the common punctua- tion which makes such o mess of this grand self- spoaking, mud whon ho rendorod it ns ou condomn him for doing, I thought t shiowed his apprecintivo insight into tho truo menning of tho linos. Icito o portion of tho noto in Richard Grant White's edition of Blinkspeara (by tho wny, probably, the Dest odi- tion of Shnksponro, aftor all) in shpport of this ronding. DMr. White says : “ Lhore hns been an alinont niverenl misapprehension of tho signifi- cauce of theso lincs, oven among actors, by whom they nre genorally read ns if thoy meant FIf tho murdor it to Lo done, when' I do it I bad otter do it quickly.” Dut this thoughtis not only very tame, and {horofora entirely unsuitod to tho situstion, and incxpresuive of tho spoak- or's mental statd, bus entiroly -incongruous with tho succocding passngo of thosoliloqiy, which is the oxpausion’ of nuinglo thought and o singlo foeling twin-born,—consciousness of guilt and drend of punishment in o sensitive, imaginative noturo dovoid of moral firmnoss. Machell's first thought is, that when tho murdor is douo, tha ond i not yet, oither Liera or horeaftor ; and this thonght possosscs him ontircly until ho soos tho guimncd chalico commondod to his own lips. o SLiaksponro, using, as his customn was, oue word, ‘dono’ iu two Housos, makes the prospoct- ivo murderor of Lis oty his Lineman, and s King say,—and with this_emphas:s,—¢ If it werae done [ended] whon 'tis dono_[porformed), then it would Lo ‘well, It were dono [onded] ;[u.ir.‘l(ly if tho nssnssinalion could clear itselt rom all consequences,’ and 80 on, to show that 'tis not done whon 'tis done, and’ therofore - it is not well. Ouly with this punctuation, and with this signification, can_tho first part of ' this soliloquy hnve Lecoming diguity, and its parts o duo conieetion.” 1t appoars to mo that this in- torprotation of tho passago 18 more than spocous or plausiblo,—that it is, in fact, tho conception and tho very ides of Shinkspearo, and that Mr. Levick has accepted it tends to produe, not a damaging,” but o favornble estimato of his * ability to undorstand tho role.” K. —_— MISCELLANEOUS LOCAL ITEMS.
