What do you think of the fact that Shakespeare swear by heaven?
Where do you get this supposed "fact?" We have no idea what Shakespeare sounded like when he was actually talking. We only know what words he put into the mouths of his characters, but those are the characters' words, not his. Yes, Bertram in All"s Well says "by heaven" and so does Horatio in Hamlet, but that tells us nothing about Shakespeare. Aaron in Titus Andronicus says "I have done a thousand dreadful things As willingly as one would kill a fly" but that doesn't mean that Shakespeare did dreadful things.
