The Bible and Shakespeare Philippians 2:15 That ye may be blameless, and
pure, & the sonnes of God
without rebuke in the middes
of a naughtie and crooked
nation, among whome ye shine
as lights in the world.

Hamlet Act 5, Scene 2 (245-50)Hamlet: If Hamlet from
himself be ta'en away,
And when he's not himself
does wrong Laertes,

madness: if't be so,
Hamlet is of the faction that
is wrong'd;
His madness is poor Hamlet's
enemy.

destroy. I will shepherd the flock with justice.

are his horns, whether I
wake or sleep.

fitting well a sheep.
