To the resemblance between the part about the celestial spheres and a paragraph in Hooker upon law, "as at once the rule of moral ac- tion and government, and the rule of moral agents, " the Shakespearian editor, Verplanck, called atten- tion some seventy years ago. "It is possible, " says he, "that the poet had this thought suggested by an analogous passage, of equal eloquence, in his con- temporary Hooker's Ecclesiastical Polity, of which the first parts were published in 1594. If it were not..., it was no very strange coincidence between the thoughts of men of large and excursive minds, at once poetical and philosophical, applied to the most widely differing subjects. " The passage in the Ecclesiastical Polity (Bk. I, iii, 2) runs as follows: "God's commanding those things to be which are, and to be in such sort as they are, to keep that tenure and course which they do, importeth the establishment of nature's law. . . . And as it cometh to pass in a kingdom rightly ordered, that after a law is once published, it presently takes effect far and wide, all states framing themselves there- unto, even so let us think it fareth in the natural course of the world; since the time that God did first proclaim the edicts of his law upon it, heaven and earth have hearkened unto his voice, and their 170 Shakespeare and Hooker labour hath been to do his will: He 'made a law for the rain;' He gave his 'decree unto the sea, that the waters should not pass his commandment.
