We should think of the young doctor less as an interpreter of the law than as an exquisite artist in the affairs of life. It may seem strange that in plays later in the chronological order than " The Merchant of Venice," this refinement of portraiture is not maintained, and that ruder and more boisterous types of woman hood appear. Shakespeare was led away from romantic comedy by'the historical plays, and after " Henry the Fourth " and "Henry the Fifth" he transferred some of the roughness and realism of the lower scenes of the historical drama to the region of comedy.
