I guess raise the idle. Maybe do a tune up w/ new plugs/cap/rotor. Make sure motor mounts are in good condition.

like the guy up there said, you gotta first figure out if it's shaking because the idle is too low or if it's because your engine mounts, bushings, are wearing out.

could also be that you need to adjust the timing of the distributor.
