Yes. I think I'd pick this one, too.

The face is an Old Style Roman called Garamond. It has a lovely texture and a formal feel to it. Its pedigree matches Shakespeare's nicely. Both are classics and the clean, subtle letterforms compliment the subtle meanings of the text in a way that doesn't inhibit the reader's understanding of the words.
