aphorism, or quotation from Shakespeare can be found.”—_Oxford
Times._

met with.”—_Public Opinion._

by some of the well-pointed and telling mottoes and aphorisms from
Shakespeare has here a most valuable book of reference.”—_Yorkshire

here seems to have been carefully made.”—_Sheffield Independent._
