Digterne udvikler her en Patos, en Dialektik af

Yed Aaret 1609-10 naaede Fletcher for sig og
Beaumont i Forening med ham dog deres Højdepunkt
baade som Digtere og som Forfattere for Teatret. Det
skovfriske Hyrdespil, som Fletcher alene er Ophav til,
The faithfal Shepherdess, maa have været offenliggjort
før Foraaret 1610, siden Sir William Skipwith, den ene
af de Mænd, til hvem det har Tilegnelsesdigte, døde
i Maj dette Aar. Fletcher har her fundet et Æmne, der
egnede sig til Afløb for hans friske, lette, gratiøse
Lyrik. Atter her har Shakespeare kunnet føle en af

Nay, it is gone
And I am left as far without a bound
As the wild ocean, that obeys the winds;
Each sudden passion throws me where it lists,
And overwhelms all that oppose my will.
I have beheld thee with a lustful eye;
My heart is set on wickedness, to act
Such sins with thee as I have been afraid
To think of . . .

To conquer men, and now am overthrown
Only by words, brother and sister. Where
Have those words dwelling? I will find ’em out,
And utterly destroy ’em; but they åre
Not to be grasped . . .
Accursed man!
Thou bought’st thy reason at too dear a rate;
For thou hast all thy actions bounded in
With curious rules. when every beast is free:
What is there that acknowledges a kindred
But wretched man? Who ever saw the bull
Fearrally leave the heifer that he liked,
Because they had one dam?
