AN INTERPRETATION

Now Lonergan appears upon the boards,And Truth and Error sheathe their lingual swords.No more in wordy warfare to engage,The commentators bow before the stage,And bookworms, militant for ages past,Confess their equal foolishness at last,Reread their Shakspeare in the newer lightAnd swear the meaning's obvious to sight.For centuries the question has been hot:Was Hamlet crazy, or was Hamlet not?Now, Lonergan's illuminating artReveals the truth of the disputed "part,"And shows to all the critics of the earthThat Hamlet was an idiot from birth!
