Book excerpt: Excerpt from Citation and Examination of William Shakspeare: Treen Joseph Part The Citation and Examination of William Shakspeare, Pericles and Aspasia, and The Pentameron were written. There is nothing in English which surpasses these three masterpieces in the quality of pure literature. If there is any prose which can be applied as a test of perfect form, as Mr. Arnold proposed to ap ply certain pieces of verse, it is to be found in these beautiful creations. In the Imaginary Conversations Landor often nods, and the reader does not escape the contagion of his prosiness; in dealing with abstractions, with thought detached from persons, he lacked the faculty of co-ordination, and sometimes strayed into dreary and arid places. But in these three works Landor was complete master of his materials; his imagination shaped and colored them with a subtile sense of the quality of each group of ideas and sentiments, and With a fault less perception of the symmetry of the whole.
