Shakespeare was called a "bard," wasn't he? Bards have poetic licenses.

I suspect that the use of 'that' as a substitute in a relative clause for a personal pronoun modified by the clause was acceptable in Elizabethan England. I ran a search for 'he that' in the King James Bible and got 611 hits. For example: "He that hath ears to hear, let him hear." (Matthew 11:15, Mark 4:9, Luke 8:8)
