Shakespeare could have gotten it for just about anywhere, or he could have written it. Wearing of horns is a very common old symbolism for a cuckold, and there are many pieces that refer to it as well as woodcuts on broadside ballads showing a man with horns. Search on 'horn' and 'cuckold' in the broadside ballad index on my website for some of these.
