He has, in fact, copied Plutarch too exactly."* Of the three Roman plays this judicious critic says: "Coriolanus is less rich in poetical style than the other two, but the comic parts are full of humour. In these three tragedies it is manifest that Roman character, and still more, Roman manners, are not exhibited with the precision of a scholar; yet there is something that distinguishes them from the rest, something of a grandiosity in the sentiments and language which shews that Shakspeare had not read the history without entering into its spirit."+ * iii. 571.-See Campbell, p. lxi.
