trend in Shakespeare's plays is the existence of a

a good deal of Shakespearean literature (Mc Crum,
Cran, MacNeil 102 - 103). That has led some to the
conclusion that Shakespeare did indeed have some
legal education. But Shakespeare has stated in

person, affectionate devotion. Does the way Romeo
