Beniamini Jonson epigramma

[recensere | fontem recensere]

Inter praefationes reperitur epigramma a Beniamino Jonson, aemuli et amici, ad Shakesperii honorem compositum, titulo To the memory of my beloved, the author, Mr. William Shakespeare: and what he hath left us. Jonson in his versibus Shakesperii tragoedi cum aliis scriptoribus comparationem elaborat:

... My Shakespeare, rise; I will not lodge thee by
Chaucer, or Spenser, or bid Beaumont lye
A little further to make thee a roome:
Thou art a moniment without a tombe
And art alive still while thy booke doth live
And we have wits to read and praise to give.
That I not mixe thee so my braine excuses --
I meane with great but disproportion'd Muses --
For if I thought my judgement were of yeeres
I should commit thee surely with thy peeres,
And tell how farre thou didst our Lily out-shine,
Or sporting Kid, or Marlowes mighty line.
And though thou hadst small Latine and lesse Greeke,
From thence to honour thee, I would not seeke
For names; but call forth thund'ring Eschilus,
Euripides, and Sophocles to us,
Paccuvius, Accius, him of Cordova dead,
To life againe, to heare thy buskin tread
And shake a stage ...

Ultimis verbis hic citatis eundem ludum Jonson repetit, verbis shake a stage, quo Robertus Greene usus est in opere suo Greene's Groat's Worth of Wit anno 1592 divulgato. Ibi Shakesperium novum scriptorem vituperat, An upstart crow beautified with our feathers; ibi nomine gentilicio poëtae (quod alii saepe hyphene dividebant, Shake-speare) alludit et in Shake-scene mutat (scil. "qui scaenam quassat").
