Excerpt from Our English Homer: Or Shakespeare Historically Considered All that insolent Greece or haughty Rome Sent forth, or that did from their ashes come. Surely such a proposition must be strictly proved before reasonable people can believe it; surely the matter must always remain open to doubt until it is proved.
