It really makes you wish for a leisure class . It 's only the drive and hurry of American life that make our men seem wanting in the convenances ; and if they had the time , with their instinctive delicacy , they would be perfect : it would come from the heart : they 're more truly polite now .

Is n't it perfect ! Of course she 'll have got his formal reply to my invitation , and be all mixed up by it , and now when this note comes , she 'll see through it all in an instant , and it will be such a relief to her ; and oh , she 'll think that he 's directed both the letters to her because he could n't think of any one else ! Is n't it lovely ? Just like anything that 's nice , it 's ten times as nice as you expected it to be ; and \u2014 \u201d", "Campbell : \u201c And I can say that I sent it at your suggestion , and then , instead of trying to help me out of the awful , awful \u2014 box , you took a cruel pleasure in teasing me about it ! But I shall not say anything , for I shall not see them . I will leave you to receive them and make the best of it . Do n't try to stop me , Willis . \u201d She threatens him with her fan as he steps forward to intercept her escape .", "Campbell , with affected distraction : \u201c What are you talking about ? I 'd refer them to you , and you could kill them . I suppose you killed lots of people in California . That 's what you always gave me to understand . \u201d She goes on with her letters .", "Campbell , gayly : \u201c Dansons ! \u201d She extends her hands to the gentlemen , and as they circle round the breakfast-table she sings , \u201c Sur le pont d'Avignon , Tout le monde y danse en rond . \u201d She frees her hands and courtesies to one gentleman and the other . \u201c Les belles dames font comme \u00e7a ; Les beaux messieurs font comme \u00e7a . \u201d Then she catches hands with them again , and they circle round the table as before , singing , \u201c Sur le pont d'Avignon , Tout le monde y danse en rond . Oh , dear ! Stop ! I 'm dizzy \u2014 I shall fall . \u201d She spins into a chair , while the men continue solemnly circling by themselves .", "Campbell : \u201c Put it in my desk , where I thought I put mine . But never mind it now . I can tell you what was in it just as well . Come in here a moment , Margaret . \u201d She leads the way to the parlor , whither Miss Rice follows . Miss Greenway , poutingly : \u201c Oh , may n't I know , too ? I think that 's hardly fair , Mrs. Campbell . \u201d", "Campbell : \u201c Well , then , do n't stand there talking , but run at once ! Oh , Willis ! Never tell me again that there 's no such thing as an overruling providence . Oh , what an interposition ! Oh , I can never be grateful and humble enough \u2014 Goodness me , Jane ! why do n't you go ? \u201d", "Campbell : \u201c \u2014 And I have n't known you do an unkind thing , a brutal thing . \u201d", "Campbell : \u201c No ; and are n't his eyes beautiful ? And that high , serious look ! And his nose and chin are perfectly divine . He looks like a young god ! \u201d", "Campbell , with dignity : \u201c I do n't like to guess who wrote other people 's letters . \u201d She looks down at the table-cloth with a menace of tears , and Campbell instantly returns all the notes .", "Campbell , springing from her chair and running to the window : \u201c Stop , you crazy things ! Here comes Jane ! Come right in here , Jane ! Did you get it ? Give it to me , Jane ! \u201d", "Campbell : \u201c You do n't see ! Why , is n't Margaret Rice the one \u2014 \u201d", "Campbell : \u201c These replies . Why , I do believe that more than half the people have answered already , and the invitations only went out yesterday . That comes from putting on R. S. V. P . I knew I was right , and I shall always do it , I do n't care what you say . \u201d", "Campbell , in a very awful voice : \u201c Willis ! Get me some water \u2014 some wine ! Help me ! Ah ! Do n't touch me ! It was you , you who did it all ! Oh , now what shall I do ? \u201d She drops her head upon Campbell 's shoulder , while Welling watches them in stupefaction .", "Campbell : \u201c Yes . Is n't it amusing ? \u201d", "Campbell : \u201c I do . Mrs. and Miss Rice accept , and her friend Miss Greenway , who 's staying with her , and \u2014 yes ! here 's one from Mr. Welling ! Oh , how glad I am ! Willis , dearest , if I could be the means of bringing those two lovely young creatures together , I should be so happy ! Do n't you think , now , he is the most delicate-minded , truly refined , exquisitely modest young fellow that ever was ? \u201d She presses the unopened note to her corsage , and leans eagerly forward entreating a sympathetic acquiescence .", "Campbell : \u201c But do n't you see ? He 's been writing to some other person at the same time , and he 's got the answers mixed \u2014 put them in the wrong envelopes . Oh dear ! I wonder who she is ! \u201d Campbell , studying her with an air of affected abstraction : \u201c Her curiosity gets the better of her anguish . Look here , Amy ! I believe you 're afraid it 's to some one else . \u201d", "Campbell , with a gasp : \u201c My letters ? \u201d She mechanically receives the extended note , and glances at the superscription : \u201c Mrs. Willis Campbell . Ah ! \u201d She hands it quickly to her husband , who reads the address with a similar cry .", "Campbell : \u201c I shall do nothing but exclaim . The Curwens accept , of course \u2014 the very first letter . That means Mrs. Curwen ; that is one , at any rate . The New York Addingses do , and the Philadelphia Addingses do n't ; I hardly expected they would , so soon after their aunt 's death , but I thought I ought to ask them . Mr. and Mrs. Roberts , naturally ; it was more a joke than anything , sending their invitation . Mrs. and the Misses Carver regret very much ; well , I do n't . Professor and Mrs. Traine are very happy , and so am I ; he does n't go everywhere , and he 's awfully nice . Mr. and Mrs. Lou Bemis are very happy , too , and Dr. Lawton is very happy . Mrs. Bridges Dear Mrs. Campbells me , and is very sorry in the first person ; she 's always nice . Mr. Phillips , Mr. Rangeley , Mr. Small , Mr. Peters , Mr . Staples , Mr. Thornton , all accept , and they 're all charming young fellows . \u201d Campbell , around his paper : \u201c Well , what of that ? \u201d", "Campbell : \u201c Write to him . I just sent a card . \u201d", "Campbell : \u201c Oh , how good ! Of course I was imagining how I should do it . \u201d", "Campbell : \u201c I can n't let you . Oh , is n't it horrible ! \u201d", "Campbell : \u201c Oh , how can you stand there mocking me ?

FOOTNOTES :There were several works published about this time containing the results of the various writers \u2019 experiences and observations in the new plantations in America .You acquired citizenship in right of your father , and without personal service .An allusion to Godfrey of Boulogne or Bulloigne .Innocent , it must be remembered , in the language of our old dramatic writers , denotes an idiot .Doll Tearsheet says of Pistol , in the \u201c Second Part of Henry IV ., \u201d \u201c These villains will make the word captain as odious as the word occupy , which , was an excellent good word before it was ill-sorted , \u201d]\u201c Tallies , \u201d says Johnson , \u201c are sticks cut in conformity to others , by which accounts were kept . \u201d Jack Cade reproaches the Lord Say , \u201c with having caused printing to be used , whereas before no other books were made use of by their forefathers but the score and tally . And Cade has the Exchequer Office on his side , where accounts are still partially kept after this most barbarous fashion . \u201dThe name of a tooth-drawer , real or imaginary , who attended fairs . In 1592 Chettle printed his tract called \u201c Kindhart 's Dream . \u201d Dilke observes : \u201c I am inclined to think , however , that kind-heart was the \u2018 travelling name \u2019 of some notorious quack tooth-drawer , or a cant name given to the whole race of them . So the stage-keeper , in the induction to \u2018 Bartholomew Fair , \u2019 when expressing his fear of the author 's success , says : \u2018 He has ne'er a sword-and-buckler man in his fair , nor a little Davy , to take toll of the bawds there , as in my time ; nor a kind-heart , if anybody 's teeth should chance to ake in his play . \u2019 And further , it is part of the \u2018 covenant and agreement , \u2019 in the same induction , that the audience shall not \u2018 look back to the sword-and-buckler age of Smithfield , but content themselves with the present . Instead of a little Davy , to take toll of the bawds , the author doth promise a strutting horse-courser , with a leer drunkard , two or three to attend him in as good equipage as you would wish . And then for kind-heart the tooth-drawer , a fine oily pig-woman , with , \u2019 \u201d & c ., & c .The artemisia or southern wood is meant .Jane has been too successful in her play on the names and qualities of the flowers to have chosen this at random ; and I am inclined to think the following extract from the \u201c Winter 's Tale \u201d will serve to elucidate her meaning \u2014 \u201c The fairest flowers o \u2019 the season Are our carnations and streak 'd gilliflowers .

FOOTNOTES :This speech is not appropriated in the original , although divided from the wife 's : neither are the words between brackets altogether an insertion of my own .

Thy soule on prisoners prayers shall mount to heaven : The Plummers and the Workemen have survey 'd the ground From Paddington ; from whence I'l have laid pipes Long to London to convey sweet water into Ludgate ; From fresh Springs : when charity tunes the pipe , the Poore man sings . Enter Keeper . How now , Keeper . As I had occasion to give a note here , I thought one sample of the original might gratify the reader 's curiosity , and he has a miniature of the whole work . The poet , who is here very minute in the description of Stephen 's charity , is justified by the inscription on the wall quoted by Stow . On this subject , however , Strype observes , \u201c The water I find not to be altogether his gift ; for that I perused lately a book , wherein I found a memorandum , that Sir Robert Knowlesgave maintenance for the supply of the prisoners of Ludgate and Newgate for ever \u201dThere can be little doubt , however , that this excellent man did something for the benefit of the prisoners , in regard to the supplying them with water .\u2014 Dilke .I suspect Arundel to have been of Cranmer 's school , and to have prophesied of what had actually happened . The following extract from a pamphlet of that time called , \u201c Thieves falling out , true Men come by their Goods , \u201djustifies the supposition : \u201c And Shoreditch will complain to Dame Ann a Clear , if we of the sisterhood , should not uphold her jollity . \u201d It is not through the inattention of the editor that this , and the preceding speech of Brewen 's , halt so lamentably ; he has , in fact , exercised his utmost skill ; but , as with many other passages in this drama , his success has not equalled his exertion .This lady proved a false prophetess .The 4o reads , \u201c What shall I say , except my hand and heart ; \u201d and Stephen may mean , What shall I offer except , & c .; but it seems a forced construction .

INTRODUCTION William Cartwright was , according to Lloyd ,born the 16th of August 1615 , though Woodsays he was born at Northway , near Tewksbury , Gloucestershire , in September 1611 , and christened on the 26th of the same month . There is as much difference between these two writers , with respect to his father , as there is concerning the time of his birth . Lloyd says he was the son of Thomas Cartwright of Burford , in Oxfordshire . Wood asserts that his father 's name was William Cartwright , one who had dissipated a fair inheritance , and was at last reduced to keep an inn at Cirencester . These contradictory accounts are totally irreconcilable . Wood 's , however , is probably the true one .That author says that Cartwright received part of his education under Mr William Top , master of the Free School at Cirencester ; was from thence sent to Westminster , where he completed his education under Mr Lambert Osbaldiston ; and in the year 1628was chosen a student of Christ Church in Oxford , and placed under the care of Mr Terrent . He took his several degrees of Bachelor and Master of Arts \u2014 the latter in 1635 ; and afterwards entering into holy orders , became , as Woodexpresses it , \u201c the most florid and seraphical preacher in the University . \u201d In October 1642 , Bishop Duppa conferred on him the place of Succentor in the Church of Salisbury ; and on the 12th of April 1643 , he was admitted junior proctor of the University . He died the 29th of November following of a malignant fever , universally lamented by every person who knew him , even by his sovereign , who showed him particular marks of his respect .He was buried at the upper end of the south aisle , adjoining to the choir of the cathedral of Christ Church . \u201c He was , \u201d says Langbaine , \u201c extremely remarkable both for his outward and inward endowments , his body being as handsome as his soul . He was an expert linguist , understanding not only Greek and Latin , but French and Italian , as perfectly as his mother tongue . He was an excellent orator , and yet an admirable poet , a quality which Cicero , with all his pains , could not attain to . Nor was Aristotle less known to him than Cicero and Virgil ; and those who heard his metaphysical lectures gave him the preference to all his predecessors , the present Bishop of Lincolnexcepted . His sermons were as much admired as his other composures ; and one fitly applied to our author that saying of Aristotle concerning AEschrion the poet , that he could not tell what AEschrion could not do . \u201d Ben Jonson said of him with some passion , My son Cartwright writes all like a man ; and Dr Fell , Bishop of Oxford , gave him this character : Cartwright was the utmost man could come to . Besides a sermon and some Greek and Latin poems , he was the author of four plays , one only of which , I believe , was published in his lifetime , viz .\u2014", "As is proposed .", "That we know of you , sir , the cause", "You fall betwixt two pillars , sir ; is't not so ?", "The theatre of kings to look upon .", "Most high and sovereign : we return all thanks", "You may boast it largely ; \u2018 tis a subject 's happiness", "Make known to all distressed travellers ,", "Let now our heralds in the streets proclaim", "Unto our loving citizens ;", "Above a queen 's .

The emigrations , on these accounts , at length became so general , that a proclamation was put forth in 1635 to stop those who had determined to follow their friends . It is remarkable that amongst those who were actually on shipboard , and prevented by the proclamation from proceeding on their voyage , were the patriot Hampden and his cousin Oliver Cromwell .

I. bk . ii . p. 18 .Gate .The name of Chaucer 's cock and hen .\u2014 Steevens .So that this play was written in 1634 .\u2014 Pegge .These rings were sometimes made out of the handles of decayed coffins , and in more ancient times were consecrated at the ceremony of creepingthe cross , of which an account is given in a note on the \u201c Merry Devil of Edmonton , \u201d with reference to the observations of Dr Percy on the \u201c Northumberland Household Book , \u201d 1512 .\u2014 Steevens . Cramp-rings were formerly worn as charms for curing of the cramp . See Brookes 's \u201c Natural History , \u201d vol . i. p . 206 .\u2014 Pegge . Andrew Borde , in his \u201c Book of the Introduction of Knowledge , \u201d 1542 , says : \u201c The kynges of Englande ... doth halowe every yere crampe rynges , the which rynges worne on ones fynger doth helpe them the whyche hath the crampe . \u201d Dr Percy , in his notes on the \u201c Northumberland Household Book , \u201d speaking of these rings observes \u201c that our ancient kings even in those dark times of superstition , do not seem to have affected to cure the king 's evil ; at least in the MSS . above quoted there is no mention or hint of any power of that sort . This miraculous gift was left to be claimed by the Stuarts : our ancient Plantagenets were humbly content to cure the cramp . \u201d I cite this passage merely to remark that the learned editor of the above curious volume has been betrayed into a mistake by the manner in which the cramp rings are mentioned in Mr Anstis 's MSS . The power of curing the king 's evil was certainly claimed by many of the Plantagenets . The above Dr Borde , who wrote in the time of Henry VIII ., says , \u201c The kynges of England , by the power that God hath given to them , doth make sicke men whole of a sickness called the Kynges Evyll . \u201d In Laneham 's \u201c Account of the Entertainment of Kennilworth Castle , \u201d it is said , \u201c And also by her highness accustomed mercy and charitee , nyne cured of the paynful and dangerous diseaz called the King 's Evil , for that kings and queens of this realm withoout oother medsinonly doo cure it . \u201d Polydore Virgil asserts the same , and William Tooker , in the reign of Queen Elizabeth ,published a book on this subject . For the knowledge of this last book I am obliged to Dr Douglas 's excellent treatise , called \u201c The Criterion , \u201d p. 191 , & c .Alluding to the old way of biting the wax , usually red , in sealing deeds .\u2014 Pegge .

Every one has heard of the collectanea and analecta poetarum .\u2014 Steevens .Robert Wisdom , a translator of the Psalms . Woodsays he was \u201c a good Latin and English poet of his time , and one that had been in exile in Queen Mary 's reign . He was also rector of Settrington in Yorkshire , and died in 1568 , having been nominated to a bishopric in Ireland in the time of Edward the 6th . \u201d His version of the Psalms is ridiculed in the \u201c Remains of Samuel Butler , \u201d 1759 , p. 41 \u2014 \u201c Thence , with short meal and tedious grace , In a loud tone and public place , Sings Wisdom 's Hymns , that trot and pace As if Goliah scann 'd \u2018 em . \u201d Again , p. 230 : \u201c Besides , when Rouse stood forth for his trial , Robin Wisdom was found the better poet . \u201dThe Author observes , in the opening of the tract : \u201c At fifteen years of age , her father being dead , her mother bestowed her in marriage upon one Master Philip Stubbes , with whom she lived four years and almost a half , very honestly and godly . \u201d Richard Brome , in his play of \u201c The Antipodes , \u201d act iii . sc . 2 , mentions one of them in the following manner \u2014 \u201c A booke of the godly life and death Of Mistress Katherine Stubs , which I have turn 'd Into sweet meetre , for the vertuous youth , To woe an ancient lady widow with . \u201d Again , Bishop Corbet in his \u201c Iter Boreale , \u201d says \u2014 \u201c And in some barn hear cited many an author , Kate Stubbs , Anne Ascue , or the Ladies Daughter . \u201di. e ., Been the mediator .

In the year 1616 he procured an Act of Parliament for incorporating himself and other divines to be provost and fellows of a college then founded at Chelsea , for promoting the study of polemic divinity , and vindicating the doctrines of the Reformation against all Popish writers . To carry this design into execution , he settled on the college four farms in Devonshire , of the value of L300 per annum , and the benefit of an extent on a statute , acknowledged by Sir Lewis Stukely , for L4000 . By the Act of Parliament , the college was empowered to bring a stream of water from the river Lee for the use of the city of London a scheme similar to that then lately executed by Sir Hugh Middleton . This foundation , although patronised both by King James and his sons , Prince Henry and Charles I ., yet fell to decay . One range of building only , scarce an eighth of the intended edifice , was erected by Dr Sutcliff , at the expense of L3000 . After lingering some time , suits were commenced about the title to the very ground on which the college stood , and by a decree of the Court of Chancery , in the time of Lord Coventry , three of the four farms were returned to Dr Sutcliff 's heir . See \u201c The Glory of Chelsey Colledge Revived , \u201d by John Darly , 4o , 1662 . Sutcliff 's wit seems almost to have been proverbial .

FOOTNOTES :i. e ., Prize\u2014 Collier .March-pane was a confection made of pistachio nuts , almonds , sugar , & c ., formerly in high esteem , and a constant article in the deserts of our ancestors . See the notes of Dr Gray , Mr Hawkins , and Mr Steevens , to \u201c Romeo and Juliet , \u201d act i. sc . 5 .This is called a St Stephen 's pudding : it used formerly to be provided at St John 's College , Cambridge , uniformly on St Stephen 's day .\u2014 Pegge .SeeOr , caveare . Giles Fletcher , in his \u201c Russe Commonwealth , \u201d 1591 , p. 11 , says : \u201c In Russia they have divers kinds of fish , very good and delicate : as the Bellouga or Bellougina , of four or five elnes long ; the Ostrina or Sturgeon , but not so thicke nor long . These four kinds of fish breed in the Volgha , and are catched in great plenty , and served thence into the whole realme for a great food . Of the roes of these foure kinds , they make very great store of Icary , or caveary . \u201d The introduction of these foreign delicacies is ridiculed by several writers of the times ; as Ben Jonson 's \u201c Cynthia 's Revels , \u201d act iii . sc . 1 : \u201c Come ; let us go and taste some light dinner , a dish of sliced caviare , or so . \u201d And in Marston 's \u201c What you Will , \u201d act ii . sc . 1 \u2014 \u201c A man can scarce put on a tuckt-up cap , A button 'd frizado sute ; scarce eate good meate , Anchovies , caviare , but hee 's satired , And term 'd phantasticall . \u201dThe malacoton is one of the late peaches . So in Ben Jonson 's \u201c Bartholomew Fair \u201d \u2014 \u201c A soft velvet head like a mellicotton . \u201d \u2014 Steevens .Olived is a term of cookery . In Murrell 's \u201c New Book of Cookery , \u201dis a receipt to make an olive-pie to be eaten hot . Olives are collops of any meat .\u2014 Steevens .Cartwright has fetched most of his antiquated terms from Chaucer . I have therefore given the explanation of them from Mr Tyrwhitt 's excellent glossary on that author .Snub , reprove .\u2014 T .Think , suppose .\u2014 T .A prater .\u2014 T .Fr . Goliardus , or Goliardensis , Lat . \u201c This jovial sect seems to have been so called from Golias , thename of a man of wit , toward the end of the 12th century ,\u201c Apocalypsis Goliae \u201d and other pieces , in burlesque Latin rhymes , some of which have been falsely attributed to Walter Mapes . In several authors of the 13th century , quoted by Du Cange , the Goliardi are classed with the joculatores or buffones . \u201d \u2014 T .Left .\u2014 T .So in Chaucer 's \u201c Reve 's Prologue , \u201d v. 3880 \u2014 \u201c Yet in our ashen cold is fire yreken . \u201d \u2014 Steevens . On this last line Mr Tyrwhitt observes : \u201c There is so great a resemblance between this line and the following in \u2018 Gray 's Elegy , \u2019\u2014 \u201c Ev'n in our ashes live their wonted fires , \u201d that I should certainly have considered the latter as an imitation , if Mr Gray himself had not referred us to the 169sonnet of Petrarch , as his original \u2018 Ch'i veggio nel pensier , \u2019 & c .Surely .\u2014 T .Very ill .\u2014 T .Uncertain .\u2014 T .Unspotted .\u2014 T .Wantonness .\u2014 T .Jargon , chattering .\u2014 T .Spotted .\u2014 T .Call , name .\u2014 T .A nurse .\u2014 T .Is she called .\u2014 T .Dreamed .\u2014 T .Tremble or quake .\u2014 T .Dream .\u2014 T .Combeth .\u2014 T .Pick as a hawk does his feathers .\u2014 T .Worthy .\u2014 T .Named .\u2014 T .High men and low men are false dice . See Florio 's \u201c Dictionary , \u201d 1598 , v. Pise . These terms so very oft occur in our ancient dramatic writers , that to quote examples would be endless .The epithet black does not agree with Sir Kenelm Digby 's \u201c Discourse touching the Cure of Wounds by the Power of Sympathy , \u201d 4th edition , 1664 , p. 104 : \u201c I told her sundry stories upon this subject ; as that of the Queen of Ethiopia , who was delivered of a white boy ; which was attributed to a picture of the Blessed Virgin , which she had always near the tester of her bed , whereunto she bore great devotion . I urged another , of a woman who was brought to bed of a child all hairy , because of a portrait of St John the Baptist in the wilderness , where he wore a coat of camel 's hair . \u201d Perhaps the original reading is the true one , and the corruption lies in the former line . I would read \u2014 \u201c It works upon that which is not as yet : The little Ethiop infant would have been Black in his cradle , had he not been first White in the mother 's strong imagination . \u201d The compositor 's eye might have caught had not from the following line \u2014 a very common accident . Without this emendation we have too much of not and had not in the course of three verses .\u2014 Steevens 's note", "Yet to accept your courtesy , good friends ,", "Now that I have made even , girl , with heaven ,", "I charge thee , lend no money ; next , serve God ;", "Peace !", "Sir Robert Littleworth his son : he hath", "This may b \u2019 your plot , and this discovery", "Discover this religious villany .", "Have gull 'd us all this while , and now are gone .", "Two or three years , if that thou shalt think fit ;", "You may dismiss your watch now ."], "play_index": 3, "act_index": 3}, {"query": ["I pray you now .", "Beauty go with you , sir .", "Now ,", "Your acceptation is reward enough .", "Heigho !", "Doth it so ?", "This meant to me ?", "Indeed , this reverend man join 'd us i \u2019 th \u2019 prison .", "If that he had but law enough .", "Some pretty stories in the hangings there .", "I am not mercenary ;", "Sappho was", "Of his sweet strings .

THE SHEPHERDS \u2019 HOLIDAY . EDITION . The Shepheards Holy-day . A pastorall tragi-Comoedie . Acted before their Majesties at Whitehall by the Queenes Servants . With an Eligie on the death of the most Noble Lady , the Lady Venetia Digby . London , Printed by N. and I. Okes for Iohn Benson .... 1635 . 8o .A piece bearing the same title as Rutter 's was written by Sir W. Denny at a later date , and is printed from the original MS. in \u201c Inedited Poetical Miscellanies , \u201d 1870 . It seems to be a hypothesis sufficiently plausible to justify a passing notice , in that one of the suppressed printed at the end of the \u201c Private Memoirs of Sir Kinelm Digby , \u201d 1827 , the intimacy of Digby with a royal personage is described in very warm terms and colours , and that Rutter , who was in Digby 's family at one time , may have founded on what came to his ears the episode of Sylvia and Thyrsis in this production . ]This author wrote in the reign of Charles the First . He lived with the Earl of Dorset , as tutor to his son , and translated , at the desire of his patron , the Cid of Corneille , a tragi-comedy , in two partsIt appears , from his dedication of this pastoral to Sir Kenelm Digby , that he lived also with that gentleman for some time , but in what capacity I cannot tell . The plainness and simplicity of this pastoral is commended by Thomas May , author of \u201c The Heir \u201d and \u201c The Old Couple ; \u201d and also by Ben Jonson in the following lines \u2014 \u201c I have read And weigh 'd your play ; untwisted every thread , And know the woof and warp thereof ; can tell Where it runs round and even ; where so well , So soft , and smooth it handles , the whole piece , As it were , spun by nature off the fleece . \u201d DRAMATIS PERSONAE .

To this fair company I am to say , You 're welcome all to a well-meaning play ; For such our author made it , with intent To defame none . His muse is innocent : A virgin yet , that has not found the ways Out of foul crimes to raise herself a praise ; And therefore she desires you would excuse All bitter strains , that suit a satire muse : And that which so much takes the vulgar ear \u2014 Looseness of speech , which they for jests do hear . She hopes none such are here , therefore she dares Venture this story , purg 'd from lighter airs : A piece entire , without or patch or maim , Round in itself , and everywhere the same . And if there be not i n't what they call wit , There might have been , had it been thought so fit . A shepherd 's muse gently of love does sing , And with it mingles no impurer thing . Such she presents unto your ears and eyes , And yet your Christian freedom not denies Of liking or disliking what you will : You may say this is well , or that is ill , Without dispute ; for why should you that pay For what you have , be taught what you should say ? Or made to judge by any square or rule , As if you came not to a stage , but school ? No , he that made it says , if you will eat , He will not force your stomachs : there 's your meat ; Which if you like , \u2018 tis well ; if not , all 's one ; There must be difference in opinion . Besides , he 's sure , whatever he could wish , Your taste , and not his art , must praise the dish . The Shepherds \u2019 Holiday .", "Come , sit down , my jovial boys , and roar . This night we 'll suck up all the dew .", "Ay , ay , \u2018 tis the rich face that keeps us from poverty . If the tailor 's countenance were in fashion now , and all that had fiery faces were counted comets , what a decay would there be amongst our houses of good fellowship . How our cans would rot and jugs grow musty for want of use ! I would the whole city were jugs and cans , that they might never be in good case but when they 're full of good liquor . I fear this will be a bad year for all of our profession ; salt meats are grown out of fashion , and Lent will be forgotten this year , and , for aught I know , the next Papist that 's drunk may make the people condemn it for superstition because he uses it . Forbid , thou who ever art patron of good fellowship !", "Come , set about , set about , my boon companions .", "We 'll drink ourselves into fish , and eat ourselves into cormorants ; we 'll not fast , though it be an eve to a surfeiting gawdy day .", "There \u2018 tis ; go , be nimble .We have had but small takings to-day ; men have got the squincy or stopping of the throat , I think \u2014 they drink so slowly .

The sleights of nicking and frothing he scorns as too common , but supplies that defect with little jugs and great glasses , and where he fears a dissolution , brings up his flagon , begins the king 's health , and with that decoy draws on another dozen or two , till the whole royal progeny is gone over . He wished it once as numerous as old Priam 's was , and another time had like to have been hanged for praying treason , that there were a hundred kings i \u2019 th \u2019 land , that men might be forced to drink all their healths for fear of displeasing any .

Come , no more words of it .", "Thou dost give me flattering busses .", "Where 's he ?", "I would you had but the wit ; \u2018 twere better than your dukedom . Good faith , this same young sober-blooded boy doth not love me ; nor a man cannot make him laugh \u2014 but that 's no marvel ; he drinks no wine . There 's never none of these demure boys come to any proof ; for thin drink doth so over-cool their blood , and making many fish-meals , that they fall into a kind of male green-sickness ; and then , when they marry , they get wenches . They are generally fools and cowards-which some of us should be too , but for inflammation . A good sherris-sack hath a two-fold operation in it . It ascends me into the brain ; dries me there all the foolish and dull and crudy vapours which environ it ; makes it apprehensive , quick , forgetive , full of nimble , fiery , and delectable shapes ; which delivered o'er to the voice , the tongue , which is the birth , becomes excellent wit . The second property of your excellent sherris is the warming of the blood ; which before , cold and settled , left the liver white and pale , which is the badge of pusillanimity and cowardice ; but the sherris warms it , and makes it course from the inwards to the parts extremes . It illumineth the face , which , as a beacon , gives warning to all the rest of this little kingdom , man , to arm ; and then the vital commoners and inland petty spirits muster me all to their captain , the heart , who , great and puff 'd up with this retinue , doth any deed of courage \u2014 and this valour comes of sherris . So that skill in the weapon is nothing without sack , for that sets it a-work ; and learning , a mere hoard of gold kept by a devil till sack commences it and sets it in act and use . Hereof comes it that Prince Harry is valiant ; for the cold blood he did naturally inherit of his father , he hath , like lean , sterile , and bare land , manured , husbanded , and till 'd , with excellent endeavour of drinking good and good store of fertile sherris , that he is become very hot and valiant . If I had a thousand sons , the first humane principle I would teach them should be to forswear thin potations and to addict themselves to sack .

If the Prince put thee into my service for any other reason than to set me off , why then I have no judgment . Thou whoreson mandrake , thou art fitter to be worn in my cap than to wait at my heels . I was never mann 'd with an agate till now ; but I will inset you neither in gold nor silver , but in vile apparel , and send you back again to your master , for a jewel \u2014 the juvenal , the Prince your master , whose chin is not yet fledge . I will sooner have a beard grow in the palm of my hand than he shall get one off his cheek ; and yet he will not stick to say his face is a face-royal . God may finish it when he will , \u2018 tis not a hair amiss yet . He may keep it still at a face-royal , for a barber shall never earn sixpence out of it ; and yet he 'll be crowing as if he had writ man ever since his father was a bachelor . He may keep his own grace , but he 's almost out of mine , I can assure him . What said Master Dommelton about the satin for my short cloak and my slops ?", "Fore God , would you would .", "I would be sorry , my lord , but it should be thus : I never knew yet but rebuke and check was the reward of valour . Do you think me a swallow , an arrow , or a bullet ? Have I , in my poor and old motion , the expedition of thought ? I have speeded hither with the very extremest inch of possibility ; I have found'red nine score and odd posts ; and here , travel tainted as I am , have , in my pure and immaculate valour , taken Sir John Colville of the Dale , a most furious knight and valorous enemy .

COURTIERS SONG OF THE CITIZEN . Poore Citizen , if thou wilt be A happy husband , learne of me ; To set thy wife first in thy shop , A faire wife , a kinde wife , a sweet wife , sets a poore man vp . What though thy shelues be ne 're so bare : 5 A woman still is currant ware : Each man will cheapen , foe , and friend , But whilst thou art at tother end , What ere thou seest , or what dost heare , Foole , haue no eye to , nor an eare ; 10 And after supper for her sake , When thou hast fed , snort , though thou wake : What though the Gallants call thee mome ? Yet with thy lanthorne light her home : Then looke into the town and tell , 15 If no such Tradesmen there doe dwell . NOTESCharalois \u2014 the name Charalois is a corruption of Charolais , the Count of Charolais being the hereditary title of the heir-apparent of the Duchy of Burgundy , for whom the county of Charolais , an arriere-fief of Burgundy , was reserved as an appanage . This domain had been purchased by Philip the Bold for his son , John the Fearless . I , i , 4. argue me of \u2014 obsolete construction : \u201c accuse me of . \u201d Cf . Ray , Disc .

Your sable habit , with the hat and cloak ... haue power \u2014 the details of hat , cloak , and ribbons , interposed between subject and verb , have attracted the latter into the plural , to the violation of its agreement with its substantive . I , i , 70. in that \u2014 i. e ., in the fact that justice had no such guards . I , i , 73-7 . For the allusion to Cerberus and the sops , cf . Virgil 's picture of Aeneas \u2019 journey to Hades\u201c Huge Cerberus makes these realms to resound with barking from his tripple jaws , stretched at his enormous length in a den that fronts the gate . To whom the prophetess , seeing his neck now bristle with horrid snakes , flings a soporific cake of honey and medicated grain . He , in the mad rage of hunger , opening his three mouths , snatches the offered morsel , and , spread on the ground , relaxes his monstrous limbs , and is extended at vast length over all the cave . Aeneas , now that the keeperis buried, seizes the passage and swift overpasses the bank of that flood whence there is no return . \u201d \u2014 Davidson 's trans .

It is a scornful observation on the part of Romont that whether or not Novall takes papers depends on how the matter is brought before him \u2014 and he is about to add that there is a way in which Charalois can manage to gain his point , when he breaks off with the cry , \u201c Follow him ! \u201d Conuayance = contrivance .

I , ii , 11 . Dijon \u2014 the scene of the drama ,\u2014 situated on the western border of the fertile plain of Burgundy , and at the confluence of the Ouche and the Suzon . It was formerly the capital of the province of Burgundy , the dukes of which acquired it early in the eleventh century , and took up their residence there in the thirteenth century . For the decoration of the palace and other monuments built by them , eminent artists were gathered from northern France and Flanders , and during this period the town became one of the great intellectual centers of France . The union of the duchy with the crown in 1477 deprived Dijon of the splendor of the ducal court , but to counterbalance this loss it was made the capital of the province and the seat of a parlement . To-day it possesses a population of some 65 , 000 , and is a place of considerable importance . I , ii , 21-3 .

An alternative possibility should be noted , however : that presumptions by mis-reading from the Ms .may be a mis-print for presumptious= presumptive , in which case more would be retained , with the passage to mean : \u201c You must find other proofs to strengthen these , and they must , moreover , be of a nature to give more reasonable grounds for presumption . \u201d V , iii , 174-5 .\u2014 The last two lines of Charalois \u2019 speech are addressed to his judges ; what preceded them to Novall . V , iii , 190. bands \u2014 the emendation bawds , proposed by Coxeter and followed by all subsequent editors , seems almost surely correct . \u201c Bawd \u201d prior to 1700 was a term applied to men as well as \u2014 and , indeed , more frequently than \u2014 to women . Cf . Shakespeare , Hamlet , I , iii , 130 . V , iii , 190. tooke \u2014 where the common Elizabethan custom of dropping the - en inflectional ending of the past participle rendered a confusion with the infinitive liable , the past tense of the verb was used for the participle . Cf . Abbott , S. G ., Sec . 343 . V , iii , 193. this matron \u2014 i. e ., Florimel . V , iii , 205. in Nouall \u2014 i. e ., \u201c in the person of Novall . \u201d V , iii , 207 . Thy challenge now I answere \u2014 this phrase would indicate that Romont crosses swords with Pontalier , and after a moment of fencing runs him through ; instead of striking him unawares , as the modern stage direction , \u201c Stabs Pontalier , \u201d would imply . V , iii , 226. these \u2014 i. e ., Aymer , Florimel , and Bellapert ."], "true_target": ["III , i , 134-5 ; i , 139 ; i , 332 ; IV , ii , 61 . II , i , 65. viperous \u2014 according to various classical authorities, the young of vipers eat their way forth to light through the bowels of their dam . The figure here seems to be somewhat confused , as the dead hero is the son of the country , his mother , who devours him . The thought , perhaps , in the mind of the dramatist , albeit ill-expressed , was that the mother-country owed her existence to her son , and , viper-like had devoured the author of her life . II , i , 66. eate \u2014 owing to the tendency to drop the inflectional ending - en , the Elizabethans frequently used the curtailed forms of past participles , which are common in Early English : \u201c I have spoke , forgot , writ , chid , \u201d etc .\u2014 Abbott , S. G ., Sec . 343 . Cf . broke , II , ii , 27 ; spoke , III , i , 3 ; begot , IV , iv , 154 ; 170 . II , i , 83. golden calf \u2014 the figure , from its immediate application to a dolt of great wealth , is transferred to the false god whom the children of Israel worshipped at the foot of Mount Sinai . II , i , 93-4 . Would they not so , etc .\u2014 the Q. reading is to be preferred to either of the modern emendations . It is probably in the sense of \u201c Would they no more but so ? \u201d , with the ensuing declaration that in that case they would keep their tears to stopbottlesII , i , 98-9 . Y'are ne 're content , Crying nor laughing \u2014 The meaning is , of course : \u201c You are never content with us , whether we are crying or laughing . \u201d II , i , 100 . Both with a birth \u2014 i. e ., both together , at the same time . II , i , 137 . Burmudas \u2014 The Bermuda islands , known only through the tales of early navigators who suffered shipwreck there , enjoyed a most unsavory reputation in Elizabethan times , as being the seat of continual tempests , and the surrounding waters \u201c a hellish sea for thunder , lightning , and storms . \u201d Cf . Shakespeare , The Tempest , I , ii , 269 : \u201c the still-vexed Bermoothes . \u201d They were said to be enchanted , and inhabited by witches and devils . They were made famous by the shipwreck there in 1609 of Sir George Somers ; the following year one of his party , Sil . Jordan , published A Discovery of the Bermudas , otherwise called the Isle of Devils . Field has another reference to \u201c the Barmuthoes \u201d in Amends for Ladies , III , iv ; but there it is not clear whether he means the islands or certain narrow passages north of Covent Garden , which went by the slang name of \u201c the Bermudas \u201d or \u201c the Streights . \u201d It is in this latter sense that the word is used in Jonson 's The Devil is an Ass , II , i . II , i , 139 . Exact the strictnesse \u2014 i. e ., require a strict enforcement of the sentence which limits Charalois to the confines of the prison . II , i , 144. vsurers relief , etc .\u2014 a rather awkward expression , so phrased for the sake of the end-scene rhyme . The thought seems to be : \u201c The relief which usurers have to offer mourns , if the debtors havetoo much grief . \u201d Charalois \u2019 remark is , of course , ironical . II , ii , 10. electuary \u2014 a medicinal conserve or paste , consisting of a powder or some other ingredient mixed with honey , preserve , or syrup of some other kind . Beaumelle means that Florimal is the medicine and Bellapert the sweet which makes it palatable . II , ii , 17. serue \u2014 G. and S. read served , which is certainly correct . Not only is there nothing throughout the play to suggest that Beaumelle 's mother is still alive , but she herself has just spoken of \u201c you two my women \u201dII , ii , 18. a peepe out \u2014 a \u201c pip \u201dis one of the spots on playing cards , dice , or dominoes . The allusion is to a game of cards called \u201c one-and-thirty \u201d ; thirty-two is a pip too many . II , ii , 21-2. the mother of the maydes \u2014 a title properly applied to the head of the maids of honour in a Royal household . II , ii , 22. mortifie \u2014 there is a significant ambiguity to the word Bellapert uses . It means \u201c bring into subjection , \u201d \u201c render dead to the world and the flesh ; \u201d it formerly had also a baleful meaning : \u201c to kill ; \u201d \u201c to destroy the vitality , vigor , or activity of . \u201d II , ii , 32. vanuable , to make you thus \u2014 valuable is used in its generic sense of value-able , of sufficient value . II , ii , 71. turn 'd in her varieties \u2014 G ., S. read : trimm 'd in her varieties \u2014 i. e ., \u201c decked in her varieties\" But adherence to the Q. is possible , with the meaning , \u201c fashioned in her varieties . \u201d II , ii , 82. walkes not vnder a weede \u2014 i. e ., \u201c wears not a garment , \u201d \u201c is not in existence . \u201d II , ii , 88 . Tissue \u2014 a rich kind of cloth , often interwoven with gold or silver . So again in II , ii , 175 . II , ii , 89. a three-leg 'd lord \u2014 the meaning is that Young Novall cannot independently \u201c stand upon his own legs , \u201d but requires the triple support of himself , Liladam , and Aymer . II , ii , 96. musicke house \u2014 a public hall or saloon for musical performances . II , ii , 99-100. in the Galley foyst , etc .\u2014 a Galley-foist was a state barge , especially that of the Lord Mayor of London . This , however , can hardly be the meaning of the word here , used as it is in connection with Bullion , which were trunk-hose , puffed out at the upper part , in several folds ; and with Quirpo , a variant of cuerpo \u2014 i. e ., in undress . \u201c Galley-foist \u201d may be the name of some dress of the period , so-called for its resemblance to the gaily bedecked Mayor'shYpppHeNbarge . But it is not unlikely , as Mason suggests , that The Galley-foist and The Bullion were the names of taverns of that day ; or else of houses of public resort for some kind of amusement . II , ii , 104. skip \u2014 so in all texts . But Field has elsewhere\u201c and then my lord ... casts a suit every quarter , which I slip into . \u201d It is probable that the word was the same in both passages ,\u2014 though whether skip or slip I have no means of determining . II , ii , 119 . St Omers \u2014 more properly , St. Omer , a town of northern France . A College of Jesuits was located there , and the point of Novall 's comparison is perhaps an allusion to the mean appearance of Jesuit spies who would come from thence to England on some pretext , such as to see their friends during the Christmas season . II , ii , 122. ly'n perdieu \u2014 \u201c to lie perdu \u201d is properly a military term for , \u201c to be placed as a sentinel or outpost , \u201d especially in an exposed position . Ly'n is one of the many obsolete forms of the past participle of the verb \u201c to lie . \u201d II , ii , 125. tye my hand \u2014 i. e ., tie the ribbon-strings which depended from the sleeve over the hand . II , ii , 163. slight neglect \u2014 contemptuous disrespect . II , ii , 174. bile \u2014 all editors after the Q. read boil . Bile was an old spelling for boil ; but in the other sense , one of the \u201c four humours \u201d of medieval physiology , the passage is perfectly clear , and the figure perhaps even more effective . II , ii , 186. eager relish \u2014 acrid taste . The figure is that the law in itself is often like a sharp and bitter flavor , but that a good judge will sweeten this . II , ii , 250 s. d. Drawes a Curtayne \u2014 the curtain of the alcove or back-stage , within which was placed the \u201c treasure , \u201d thus to be revealed . II , ii , 298. in which yours \u2014 i. e ., \u201c because of the fact of her being yours . \u201d II , ii , 301. for poore and worthlesse I \u2014 I for me , like other irregularities in pronominal inflection , was not infrequent in Elizabethan times . Cf . Abbott , S. G ., Sec . 205 . II , ii , 326 . Curtius-like \u2014 like Marcus Curtius , legendary hero of ancient Rome . See Livy , vii , 6 . II , ii , final s. d. while the Act is playing \u2014 i. e ., while the interlude music is played , at the close of the Act . III , i , 18. relish \u2014 a trace or tinge of some quality , a suggestion .\u2014 In III , i , 20 : a flavor ; or , if read with the Q . ' s punctuation , a verb : give a relish . It appears preferable , however , to take the passage as punctuated by G ., S ., which makes relish a noun . III , i , 29. take me with you \u2014 understand me . III , i , 37. sudden \u2014 adv . for suddenly . The - ly suffix was frequently omitted in Elizabethan times . III , i , 45 . Such as are faire , etc .\u2014 the connection goes back to l. 42 , Bellapert taking up again the thread of her remark which Novall 's objection and her summary answer thereto had broken in upon . III , i , 120 . Christian \u2014 probably used here in the colloq . sense of : a human being , as distinguished from a brute ; a \u201c decent \u201d or \u201c respectable \u201d person . Cf . Shakespeare , Twelfth Night , I , iii , 89 : \u201c Methinks ... I have no more wit than a Christian , or an ordinary man has . \u201d III , i , 122 . The entertaiment of your visitation \u2014 i. e ., the entertainment which your visit received . III , i , 123. on\u2014 i. e ., a visitation . III , i , 126 . Muske-cat \u2014 the civet-cat ; applied as a term of contempt to a fop , as being a person perfumed with musk . III , i , 139. there is now speaks to you \u2014 G ., S. omit is , at the same time clearing the construction and securing a more regular metre . The Q. reading , however , is perfectly possible , as an ellipsis , by omission of the subject relative , for , there is that now speaks to you, or even , by a change of punctuation , there is \u2014 now speaks to you \u2014, etc . III , i , 148 . As Caesar , did he liue , could not except at \u2014 see Plutarch 's Life of Julius Caesar , Chapters 9 & 10 , wherein it is narrated how Caesar divorced his wife , Pompeia , when scandal assailed her name , although he denied any knowledge as to her guilt ; \u201c \u2018 Because \u2019 said he , \u2018 I would have the chastity of my wife clear even of suspicion . \u2019 \u201d III , i , 148. except at \u2014 take exception at . III , i , 159. pointed \u2014 all editors after the Q. read painted , an absolutely unnecessary and unwarranted emendation . Pointed means \u201c fitted or furnished with tagged points or laces ; \u201d \u201c wearing points ; \u201d \u201c laced . \u201d Cf . Maurice Hewlett 's novel , The Queen 's Quair , p. 83 : \u201c saucy young men , trunked , puffed , pointed , trussed and doubleted . \u201d Huloet in his Dictionaryhas : \u201c Poynted , or tyed with poynts , ligulatus . \u201d III , i , 167 . This pretty rag \u2014 i. e ., the \u201c clout \u201d mentioned in II , ii , 123 . III , i , 173. in spite of \u2014 in scorn of , in defiance of . III , i , 184. thy \u2014 so the Q . All later editors read this . It is not impossible , of course , that Romont should begin an oath \u201c By thy hand , \u201d and Beaumelle flash back at him \u201c And sword , \u201d transferring the thy from herself to him . But Romont would be more likely to swear by his own hand than by Beaumelle 's . III , i , 188. cast suburb whores \u2014 prostitutes who had been cashiered from service . Houses of ill-fame were customarily located in the suburbs . III , i , 191. legion \u2014 i. e ., of evil spirits . Cf . Mark , v , 9 . III , i , 193. horne-mad \u2014 the word was originally applied to horned beasts , in the sense : \u201c enraged so as to horn any one ; \u201d hence of persons : \u201c stark mad , \u201d \u201c mad with rage , \u201d \u201c furious . \u201d By word-play it acquires its sense in the present passage . \u201c mad with rage at having been made a cuckold . \u201d III , i , 202. yellow \u2014 this color was regarded as a token or symbol of jealousy . III , i , 211 . Carted \u2014 carried in a cart through the streets , by way of punishment or public exposureIII , i , 261. in distance \u2014 within reach , in striking distance . III , i , 331. as it would tire \u2014 as appears to be used for as if ; in reality the if is implied in thesubjunctive .\u2014 Abbott , S. G ., Sec . 107 . III , i , 331. a beadle \u2014 it was one of the duties of a beadle to whip petty offenders . III , i , 352 . So I not heard them \u2014 Abbott explains this construction , not uncommon in the Elizabethan period , as an omission of the auxiliary verb \u201c do \u201dBut here the main verb is heard , whereas , according to his explanation , grammar would require hear . May not the construction be better taken as a simple , though to our ears cumbrous , inversion of , So I heard them not ? III , i , 366. cause \u2014 affair , business \u2014 so also in III , i , 377 . III , i , 388 . Calenture \u2014 a disease incident to sailors within the tropics ; a burning fever . III , i , 428-9. flegme ... choller \u2014 in the old physiologies the predominance of the \u201c humour , phlegm , \u201d was held to cause constitutional indolence or apathy ,\u2014 the predominance of \u201c choler \u201d to cause irascibility . III , i , 432 . \u2018 em \u2014 grammatical precision would require him , as is substituted in M ., f. In Field 's rapid , loose style , however , a change of construction in mid-sentence is not improbable , and the Q. reading may very well reproduce accurately what he wrote . III , i , 441. thou curious impertinent \u2014 the epithet is from The Curious Impertinent of Cervantes , a story imbedded in Don Quixote , Part I . III , i , 463 . I not accuse \u2014 cf . note on l. 354 . III , i , 467 . Ere liue \u2014 Ere I should live is required in full by strict grammar , but Field 's verse is frequently elliptical . Gifford 's emendation to lived for the sake of grammatical regularity , which is followed by all later editors , is unwarranted . III , i , 467. mens marginall fingers \u2014 the figure is an allusion to the ancient custom of placing an index hand in the margin of books , to direct the reader 's attention to a striking passage . So does Romont picture men 's fingers pointing to the story of Charalois as a noteworthy and lamentable thing . Cf . IV , i , 56 . III , i , 469-470 . An Emperour put away his wife for touching Another man .\u2014 The source of this allusion is not apparent . Can it be a perversion in the mind of Field of the story of Caesar 's divorce of his wife , to which Massinger has already referred above? IV , i , 3. a flaxe \u2014 the flax wick of a lamp or candle . IV , i , 3. a red headed womans chamber \u2014 Since early times red-haired individuals have been supposed to emit an emanation having a powerful sexually exciting influence .

We may just as well understand one another , Podbury . If I 'm to provide money for both of us , it 's only reasonable that you should be content to go where I choose . I cannot , and will not , stand these perpetual interferences with our original plan ; it 's sheer restlessness . Come with me to Nuremberg , and I shall be very happy to be your banker . Otherwise , you must stay here alone .", "It was so hot . I must go and inform the Police here \u2014 I may recover it yet . Anyway , we \u2014 we must push on to Nuremberg , and I 'll telegraph home for money to be sent here .

CULCHARD is sitting by one of the pillars , engaged in constructing a sonnet . On a neighbouring seat a group of smart people are talking over their acquaintances , and near them is another visitor , a MR. CRAWLEY STRUTT , who is watching his opportunity to strike into the conversation .", "Of course , he naturally would think so . And that is how you got your tunny ? I see .", "If by \u201c spotting \u201d you mean \u2014 was I aware of the existence of a very exuberant young person , with a most distressing American accent ?\u2014 I can only say that she made her presence sufficiently evident . I confess she did not interest me to the point of speculating upon her relationship to anybody else .", "Do n't be absurd . You will only be de trop , I assure you .", "Prendergast , I am all the better pleased , of course .", "That 's an entire mistake on your part . Miss Trotter has nothing to do with it . I do n't even know whether she 's going or not \u2014 for certain .", "Quite a mistake on your part , I assure you , my dear fellow . I am sure she will learn to appreciate you \u2014 er \u2014 fully when you meet again , which , I may tell you , will be at no very distant date . I happen to know that she will be at the Italian Lakes next month , and so shall we , if you let me manage this tour my own way .", "My dear Podbury , this is really too childish ! There 's no sense in travelling together , if we 're going to stay at different hotels !", "And give up Nuremberg ? Thank you !", "Podbury knows very little about women . If Hyp \u2014 Miss Prendergast \u2014 once found out why I renounced my suitorship , I should have very little peace , I know that \u2014 I 've taken particular care not to betray my attachment to Maud . I 'm afraid she 's beginning to notice it , but I must be careful . I do n't like this sudden intimacy between them \u2014 it makes things so very awkward . They 've been sitting under that tree over there for the last half-hour , and goodness only knows what confidences they may have exchanged ! I really must go up and put a stop to it , presently .UNDER THE TREE .", "I am not aware that I wanted to get out of it . I merely proposed in your \u2014\u2014What are you cackling at now ?", "You may invoke every female relative you possess in the world , but it wo n't alter the fact , and that alone ought to convince you \u2014\u2014", "Doubtless . But I am hindering your sketch ?", "No , I think not , thanks . I 'm very comfortable where I am .", "I 've bungled it ! I might have known I should only make matters worse ! On the Piazzetta ; it is moonlight , the Campanile and dome of San Giorgio Maggiore are silhouetted sharp and black against the steel-blue sky across a sea of silver ripples . PODBURY and CULCHARD are pacing slowly arm-in-arm between the two columns .", "Grieving ! Ah , if I could only tell you what I went through !But all that is past . And now may I not expect a more definite answer to the question I asked at Bingen ? Your reply then was \u2014 well , a little ambiguous .", "When you have extracted sufficient entertainment from that very small joke , you will perhaps allow Miss Prendergast to sit down and begin her sketch . You may not be aware that you 've taken her place .", "There are one or two mountains , I believe . But , personally , I should prefer Italy .", "Cut up ? Why should I be cut up , my dear fellow ?\u2014 about what ?", "Pshaw ! The button is a trifle too \u2014Good Heavens , it \u2014 it 's gone !", "No , the Modern Spirit is too earnestly intent upon solving the problems of existence to tolerate humour in its literature . Humour has served a certain purpose in its day , but that day is done , and I for one cannot pretend to regret its decay .", "Miss Trotter ! You ! What an egoist you are , my dear fellow ! I was referring to myself and Miss Prendergast . And you can n't deny that , both at Nuremberg and Constance , she \u2014\u2014", "Brutal selfishness !Now if I can only get off to sleep while that little beast is quiet \u2014\u2014 MOSQUITOPing-a-wing-wing ! Same Scene ; the next morning .", "Well , about myself \u2014 naturally .", "She has refused you ? My dear Podbury , I 'm really delighted to hear this \u2014 at least , that is \u2014\u2014", "Evidently . I suppose there 's no chance of a \u2014 a reconciliation up there ?", "Er \u2014 no . The fact is , I 've just heard from my Chief \u2014 a \u2014 a most intemperate communication , insisting on my instant return to my duties ! I shall have to humour him , I suppose , and leave at once .", "BOB", "Was I amused ?", "Well , we might spend the morning in St. Mark 's \u2014\u2014?", "Glorious view one gets at each fresh turn of the road , Podbury ! Look at Hinter-rhein , far down below there , like a toy village , and that vast desolate valley , with the grey river rushing through it , and the green glacier at the end , and these awful snow-covered peaks all round \u2014 look , man !", "I am willing to make allowance for your state of mind , Podbury , but such an expression as \u2014 as jabber , applied to my \u2014 er \u2014 well-meant attempts at consolation , and just as I was about to propose an arrangement \u2014 really , it 's too much ! The moment we reach the hotel , I will relieve you from any further infliction fromwhat you are pleased to call my \u201c jabber \u201d !", "Oh , let me see \u2014 just arriving at St. Moritz , I expect . Wonderful effect of colour , that is .", "Perfectly , thanks . My mind is being \u2014 er \u2014 stimulated here in the direction most congenial to it .", "Culchard feels slightly Uncomfortable .", "Ah , Podbury , take the good the gods provide you and be content ! You might be worse off , believe me !", "That 's childishness , my dear fellow ; you ought to talk about it \u2014 it will do you good . And really , I 'm not at all sure , after all , that we have not both of us had a fortunate escape . One is very apt to \u2014 er \u2014 overrate the fascinations of persons one meets abroad . Now neither of those two was quite \u2014\u2014", "I \u2014 er \u2014 really see no necessity . He 's done nothing whatever to deserve it !", "I 'm \u2014 er \u2014 tremendously obliged . I really can n't say how .\u2014But you need not have taken advantage of it to try to do me out of going to Nuremberg \u2014 it was a shabby trick !", "Only in words ; that is , I record my impressions in a poetic form . A perfect sonnet may render a scene , a mood , a passing thought , more indelibly than the most finished sketch ; may it not ?", "I \u2014 ah \u2014 appear to have interrupted a highly interesting conversation ?", "Eagle again ! Now mind , Podbury , no going back after this . It must be Nuremberg now .", "Is n't it a little late in the day to be cultivating an eye for colour ? I was about to say that those two girls have treated us infamously . I say deliberately , my dear Podbury , infamously !", "Hardly , my dear fellow \u2014 they 're pictures , as it happens .", "A most excellent method of obtaining it , no doubt .Numero vingt-sept , demi bouteille de Chianti , et siphon !", "That 's all I am to her . A beast of burden ! And a whole precious morning squandered on this confounded shopping \u2014 when I might have been \u2014 ah , well ! On the Grand Canal . 9 P. M. A brilliant moonlight night ; a music-barge , hung with coloured lanterns , is moving slowly up towards the Rialto , surrounded and followed by a fleet of gondolas , amongst which is one containing the TROTTERS and CULCHARD . CULCHARD has just discovered \u2014 with an embarrassment not wholly devoid of a certain excitement \u2014 that they are drawing up to a gondola occupied by the PRENDERGASTS and PODBURY .", "As you choose . I gave you the opportunity \u2014 out of kindness . If you prefer to make yourself ridiculous by hanging about here , it 's no concern of mine . I dare say I shall enjoy Florence at least as well by myself .", "Take my advice , and do n't press me , my dear fellow ; you may regret it if you do !", "My little affair ? Get over ?Oh , ah , to be sure . Yes , thank you , my dear fellow , it is not making me particularly unhappy .", "Er \u2014 Podbury , it has occurred } to me that we might \u2014\u2014} } leave this place to-morrow ! PODB . I say , Culchard , we really ought } to \u2014\u2014}", "You must really excuse me , as I fear I should be scarcely a congenial spirit in such a party . So good-night \u2014 or , rather \u2014 er \u2014 good-bye .", "Now , look here , Podbury . I 'm not in the mood for any more of your foolery \u2014\u2014", "You do n't appear to be exactly heartbroken ?", "Well , do you withdraw jabber ?", "What a surly boor it is ! But I do n't care \u2014 I 'll do him a good turn , in spite of himself !Do you know , I 've just been having a chat with poor young Prendergast . He seems quite cut up at being forced to side with his sister . I undertook to \u2014 er \u2014 intercede for him . Now is it quite fair , or like your \u2014 er \u2014 usual good-nature , to visit his sister 's offences \u2014 whatever they are \u2014 on him ? I \u2014 I only put it to you .", "You do n't say so ! Then all I can say , Podbury , is that if we two can n't manage , in a place like this , to recover all the ground we have lost \u2014\u2014", "I should have thought myself that mere personality is hardly enough to give point to any repartee \u2014 there is a slight difference between brilliancy and \u2014 er \u2014 brutality !", "Why should I \u201c tit up , \u201d as you call it , when I 've already made up my mind to go ? When I once decide on anything , it 's final . THE BRIDEWould you like me to roll you a cigarette ? BRIDEGROOMNot if I know it . I can do it better myself . BRIDEI see .", "I can n't say I 'm surprised to hear it . It 's awkward , certainly . I suppose I shall have to lend you enough to go home with \u2014 it 's all I can do ; but I 'll do that with \u2014 er \u2014 pleasure .", "I understood the idea was to keep away from our fellow countrymen , and as far as I can remember St. Goarshausen , it is not overrun with tourists \u2014 we should be quiet enough there .", "Thanks \u2014 variety shows are not much in my line ; but do n't mind me if you want to go .", "Charley ? I do n't see why she should mention Van Boodeler now !", "It \u2014 it 's going down . Nothing to what it was , half an hour ago !", "I am very glad to hear you say so . I was rather afraid you had taken a dislike \u2014 er \u2014 in that quarter .", "Not yet . Good-night .You tasteless dolt !", "I am obliging Miss Prendergast , and her only .Would you prefer me to face you , Miss Prendergast ?", "You find these old churches rather oppressive , I dare say . Er \u2014 will you have a cigarette ?", "Could n't you induce your sister to lay aside her \u2014 er \u2014 prejudice against me ? Then I could easily \u2014\u2014", "Just as likely she had had enough of your buffoonery !", "It 's the best place to get to Cologne and up the Rhine from . Then , you see , we go rather out of our way to Nuremberg \u2014\u2014", "I do n't know about festive \u2014 but it is \u2014 er \u2014 a quaint , and highly interesting old place . Then I thought we 'd dip down to Constance , and strike across the Alps to the Italian Lakes .", "I \u2014 er \u2014 the feelings I entertain towards Miss Trotter have suffered no change \u2014 quite the reverse , only \u2014 and I wish to impress this upon you , Podbury \u2014 it is undesirable , for \u2014 er \u2014 many reasons , to make my attentions \u2014 er \u2014 too conspicuous . I \u2014 I trust you have not alluded to the matter to \u2014 well , to Miss Prendergast , for example ?", "Oh , for Heaven 's sake , do n't bother about that now ! I 've something else to think about . My goodness , we were nearly over that time ! What are you looking at ?", "If you like to give up Italy altogether .", "I wish Rose had warned me that Podbury 's habit of mind was so painfully desultory .However \u2014\u2014", "May not its very simplicity \u2014 er \u2014 attest the sincerity of their remorse ?", "She is \u2014 er \u2014 vivacious , certainly .You seem rather dull to-night , my dear fellow ?", "If I used such a term at all , it was in no disparaging sense . Every earnest nature presents an \u2014 er \u2014 priggish side at times . I know that even I myself have occasionally , and by people who did n't know me of course , been charged with priggishness .", "Well , listen to reason , my dear fellow . What you propose is ridiculous . I \u2014 I do n't mind conceding this : we 'll each go , and \u2014 er \u2014 tit up , as you call it , which goes first .", "Not for me , thanks . I say , I wonder if it 's safe , having no parapet , only these stone posts , eh ?", "Possibly \u2014 but I have n't . As I 've already told you \u2014 I retire .", "Of course , if Mr. Podbury descends to childishness of that sort , I can n't pretend to \u2014\u2014", "Good morning , Miss Trotter . We \u2014 ah \u2014 meet again .", "She 's really grown distinctly prettier . She might show a little more feeling , though , considering we were almost , if not quite \u2014\u2014So you remember my poor poems ?

This thing 's a week old ! Must have been lying in my rooms all this time \u2014 or else in that infernal Italian post !", "Quite the contrary , I assure you ! You were saying you always ordered it out of economy ?", "He probably imagines you are merely expressing your satisfaction with Venice . And I do n't see how you expect him to remove the entire cabin here !I think we did well to let the \u2014 the others travel on first . More dignified , you know !", "If you insist on knowing , she is the lady to whom Mr. Podbury has every prospect of being engaged . I hope your mind is at ease now ?", "When did I say so \u2014 or think so ? It 's what you 've told her about me , and I must say I call it \u2014\u2014", "It 's simple enough , my dear fellow , only I can n't expect you to grasp it . It is merely a profound truth stated with masterly precision .", "More climbing ! I thought this line was supposed to go to the top ! But that 's Italian all over \u2014 hem \u2014 as Podbury would say ! Wonder , by the way , if he expected to be asked to come with me . I 've no reason for sacrificing myself like that any longer !Ah , Hypatia , if you could know what a dreary disenchanted blank you have made of my life ! And I who believed you capable of appreciating such devotion as mine !", "In spite of my tendency to \u201c jaw \u201d and \u201c jabber \u201d ?", "I really do n't see any necessity \u2014 however ,\u2014", "I 'm exceedingly obliged \u2014 but so large a party is scarcely \u2014 however , I 'll let you know whether I can join you or not this evening . Are you \u2014 er \u2014 going anywhere in particular just now ?", "Ah !What do you say to studying the Vine and Fig-tree angles and the capitals of the arcades in the Ducal Palaces ? I will go and fetch the Stones of Venice .MISS T. I GUESS YOU CAN LEAVE THOSE OLD STONES IN PEACE . I DON'T FEEL LIKE STUDYING UP ANYTHING THIS MORNING \u2014 IT 'S AS MUCH AS EVER I CAN DO NOT TO SCREAM ALOUD !", "He 's got me on the nose now ! There 's a lot outside . Just turn off the light , will you ? I dare n't put my arm out .You brute !Podbury , do switch off the light \u2014 like a good fellow !", "I intended it to bear that \u2014 er \u2014 construction .

Poor fellow , he is not without his good points ; but I do find him a thorn in my flesh occasionally , I 'm afraid .", "I suppose I shall have to stay here now . You 're not going ?", "I put that to her , and there is nothing in it . In fact , she practically admitted \u2014I will tell you another time . That lady over there is looking at us , and I 'm almost certain \u2014\u2014", "Afraid she 's gone too far \u2014 thinks she 'll smooth me down ! Upon my word , it would serve her right to \u2014 but no , I wo n't be petty .Pray tell Miss Prendergast that I have no immediate intention of altering my position .", "You entirely misunderstood me . There was no definite understanding between us \u2014 nothing of the sort or kind . In fact , it was merely a passing caprice . Since I have had the privilege of knowing Miss Prendergast , I see clearly \u2014\u2014", "I do not propose to attempt it . No doubt you will be more successful in entertaining Miss Trotter than I can pretend to be . I retire in your favour .", "I am merely carrying a few things for Miss Trotter .Dash the thing !...It 's natural that , in my position , I should have these \u2014 er \u2014 privileges .Conf \u2014\u2014 Have you happened to see Miss Trotter about , by the way ?", "I tell you what she is \u2014 she 's a cold-blooded pedantic prig , and a systematic flirt ! I loathe and detest a prig , but a flirt I despise \u2014 yes , despise , Podbury !", "Thank you . I trust it will \u2014 er \u2014 have that effect .Now , that 's a very superior girl \u2014 she has intellect , style , culture \u2014 everything the ideal woman should have . I wonder , now , whether , if I had met her before \u2014 but such speculations are most unprofitable ! How clear her eyes looked through her pince-nez ! Blue-grey , like Athene 's own . If I 'd been with Podbury , I should never have had this talk . The sight of him would have repelled her at once . I shall tell him when I take him that book that he had better go his own way with his new friends . I like the view from this terrace \u2014 I shall come up here again \u2014 often .

Oh , he 'll never get those horses round in .... I was \u2014 er \u2014 rather amused by your evident assumption that I must have been rejected by Miss Prendergast .", "I \u2014 ah \u2014 suppose I have no choice . But you really must allow me to say that it is not precisely the reception I anticipated . Still , in your service , I am willing to endure even Podbury \u2014 for a strictly limited period ; that I do stipulate for .", "Yes , I 've been here some little time . I wish you could have managed to come before , because they close early here to-day , and I wanted to go thoroughly over the tour I sketched out before getting the tickets .", "Quite so . Only , you see , we used to be good friends at", "Pray dismiss such \u2014 er \u2014 morbid misgivings , dear Miss Trotter . Show that you do so by accepting me as your guide and companion through life !", "No \u2014 but we shall be , if we only insist upon being treated seriously .", "Just so . Do you know , Podbury , I almost think I 'll go down and find her . I \u2014 I 'm curious to hear what her impressions of a place like this are . Such a scene , you know ,\u2014 so full of associations with \u2014 er \u2014 the splendours and cruelties of a corrupt past \u2014 must produce a powerful effect upon the fresh untutored mind of an American girl , eh ?", "Podbury , I \u2014 I \u2014 this conversation is evidently not intended for \u2014 for other ears \u2014 I do n't know whether you have heard enough , I shall go down !", "\u201c Figuratively \u201d is a distinct concession on Ruskin 's part . Still , I should be glad to know \u2014\u2014", "It only shows that this place is not without its pathos and interest for most visitors , no matter what their nationality may be .

But what are you so sure of at the present moment ?", "Oh , h 'm \u2014 quite so . That is \u2014 but no doubt it will be an advantage \u2014\u2014 in \u2014 er \u2014 some respects .Hardly from poor dear Podbury 's point of view , I 'm afraid though !

In future we must keep to our original resolution \u2014 not to be drawn into any chance acquaintanceship . I do n't want to reproach you , but if , when we were first at Brussels , you had not allowed yourself to get so intimate with the Trotters all this would never \u2014\u2014", "What theory ? Why , the one I 've been explaining to you for the last ten minutes !\u2014 that all this harshness of hers lately is really , when you come to analyse it , a decidedly encouraging symptom .", "Yes , I am .

In \u2014 er \u2014 obeying your commands , I have learned to know Podbury better \u2014 to see in him a sterling nature , more worthy , in some respects , than my own . And I know how deeply he has centred all his hopes upon you , Miss Prendergast .

So you must really allow me to renounce vows accepted under \u2014 er \u2014 an imperfect comprehension of the \u2014 er \u2014 facts !", "Selfish brute !", "Here are yours .

CULCHARD and PODBURY are seated side by side in the gondola , which is threading its way between low banks , bright with clumps of Michaelmas daisies and pomegranate-trees laden with red fruit . Both CULCHARD and PODBURY are secretly nervous and anxious for encouragement . PODBURYLa-doodle-um-La-doodle-oo : La-doodle-um-te-dumpty-loodle-oo ! I think she rather seemed to like me \u2014 those first days at Brussels , do n't you ? CULCHARDDid she ? I dare say .Few-fee ; di-fee-fee-few-few ; few-fiddledy-fee-fiddledy-few-few-few-fee . I fancy I 'm right in my theory , eh ?", "That is certainly my intention ; have you any objection to offer ?", "I \u2014 er \u2014 not at all ... most distressed , I assure you ... really no notion \u2014\u2014", "Oh , I \u2014 I was n't \u2014\u2014Er \u2014 I hope you have n't been inconvenienced at all ?", "Surely one may express a natural enthusiasm without laying oneself open \u2014\u2014?", "How thoroughly she understands me !", "Fortunately \u2014 yes . And \u2014 er \u2014 your engagement happily concluded ?", "It does n't seem to be making any particular impression on you , I must say !", "Hem \u2014 we are gazing upon one of the landmarks of our national history \u2014 Miss Trotter .", "How can I tell ?Podbury ! What did I tell you ? One 's just bitten me \u2014 the beast !I say , I can hear him buzzing all over the place !", "That ass Podbury ! To think of his taking me in with an idiotic trick like that ! And before Her too ! And when I had made it all right about the other evening , and was producing an excellent impression on the way up here . I wish I could hear what they are whispering about \u2014 more silly jokes at my expense , no doubt . Bah ! as if it affected me !", "Your feelings have apparently undergone a sudden change \u2014 quite recently !", "Nonsense , you 're well enough . And why you should feel low , with all your advantages \u2014 in Venice as you are , and in constant intercourse with a mind adorned with every feminine gift \u2014!", "I cannot say I recall it at this moment . Does he hold that a lover should expect to be accepted by \u2014 er \u2014 instalments , because , if so \u2014\u2014", "Ca n't say . Not had much of it , at present .", "Everything !\u2014 money , coupons , circular notes ! They \u2014 they must have fallen out going up that infernal Niederwald .You would insist on going !", "Talk to him yourself , my dear fellow , I 'm not going to make a row .", "The fascinating Miss Trotter is up above with Van Boodeler , so my services are not required .", "She must have understood every word we said ! Are you in earnest over this ?Well , you 'll soon get tired of your own society , I warn you .", "Think of it ! the actual spot on which Romeo and Juliet \u2014 Shakspeare 's Juliet \u2014 drew their last breath ! Does it not realise the tragedy for you ?", "So we have ! My friend is one , and he 'll be here presently , but I much prefer myself to see every seat occupied . There is something so depressing about a vacant chair , do n't you think ?", "Hum \u2014 well . She is \u2014 er \u2014 peculiar , do n't you know , and I rather doubt whether you will have much in common .", "Ah , well , I do n't grudge you your little joke if it amuses you . Those laugh best who laugh last . And it 's settled now that we 're going to Nuremberg .", "I rather gathered as much . I think I could guess the \u2014\u2014", "The other !\u2014 that 's Me ! I wish to goodness you would n't make all that noise , Podbury , just when it 's getting interesting !", "Organ-grinder ! you are so very insular ! For anything you can tell , he may be a decayed nobleman .", "I may return your charming candour by admitting that my \u2014 er \u2014 dismissal will be \u2014 well , not wholly without its consolations .", "I hope you \u2014 ah \u2014 undeceived her ?", "Can she be really as indifferent as she seems ? I 'm afraid she has very little heart ! But if only she can be induced to go back to Lugano .... She will be at the same hotel \u2014 a great point ! I wish that fellow Van Boodeler was n't coming too , though .... Not that they 've settled to come at all yet !... Still , I fancy she likes the idea .... She 'll come \u2014 if I do n't appear too anxious about it !CHAPTER XIV . + Miss Banquo .+ SCENE \u2014 Gardens belonging to the Hotel du Parc , Lugano . Time , afternoon ; the orchestra is turning up in a kiosk . CULCHARD is seated on a bench in the shade , keeping an anxious eye upon the opposite door .", "I am glad you see it in that light . Are n't you a little irritable to-night ?", "The fact is that I much prefer to receive my impressions of a scene like this in solitude .", "Feedy-feedy-feedle !", "Nothing ? How little she knows me !", "Did you hear , Podbury ? She 's actually pleading for me ! Is n't she an angel ? Be quiet , now . I must hear the answer !", "May I ask which knight you refer to ?", "As soon as you please . We might start for Constance to-morrow , if you like .", "I feel bound to state at once that , in my own case , my position at Somerset House would render anything of that sort utterly impracticable .", "Tunny ? Thank you . I \u2014 er \u2014 will certainly remember his name , if I require a guide .", "Will you kindly understand that I am quite capable of estimating the precise period of this sculpture for myself .", "I am . This gentleman gets off \u2014 is it Bacharach or Maintz ,", "About you ? I really do n't recollect that she mentioned you particularly .", "No doubt that course is open to her . But why seven , and where is he expected to go ?", "It 's fanciful , perhaps \u2014 but , if you do n't mind waiting a little , I should like to contribute \u2014 not my card , but a sonnet . I feel one on its way .", "Va bene , va bene \u2014 we know all about it !", "Ah , good morning ! What are your \u2014 er \u2014 impressions of Venice , Mr. Trotter ?", "We sha n't get over it for some hours yet .", "I should advise you not to be over-confident .They are here , you see \u2014 those are evidently their gondolas , I recognise those two cloaks . Now the best thing we can do is to separate .", "That 's impossible , and I can prove it . The service she demanded was , that I should leave Constance at once \u2014 with you . Do you understand \u2014 with you , Podbury !", "I suppose you intend to enlighten her as to my \u2014 er \u2014 little flirtationwith Miss Trotter ? Do it , Podbury , do it \u2014 if you think you 'll gain any good by it !", "She 's with Miss", "Because I thought we 'd see Bruges and Ghent on our way to", "Torcello \u2014 \u201c the Mother of Venice ! \u201d it really seems a pity to go away without having seen it . Do you know , Podbury , I think I 'll join you !", "As much as there is in not going farther than somewhere else , I should have thought .", "Did n't I ? Oh , surely ! yes , I 've \u2014 er \u2014 met that lady .You are an Art-Collector ? Indeed ? And \u2014 er \u2014 have you \u2014 er \u2014?", "On precisely similar luck . Miss Trotter and I \u2014 er \u2014 arrived at the conclusion last night that we were not formed to make each other 's happiness .", "Was he ? I dare say . But I rather understood we came out with the idea of keeping out of all that .", "I can get the coupons changed for Switzerland if you prefer it . The Swiss Lakes may be the more picturesque .", "Mr. Trotter is the only relation of yours I have had the pleasure of meeting , as yet .", "How on earth can I tell ? If it is so , you must be a philosopher , my dear fellow , and bear it \u2014 that 's all .", "For those who enjoy it . She has only been in there an hour , so she is not likely to come back just yet . What do you say to coming into S. S. Giovanni e Paulo again , with me ? Those tombs form a really remarkable illustration , as Ruskin points out , of the gradual decay of \u2014\u2014 MISS TROTTERJust hold these a spell till I come back . Thanks ever so much .... Well , Mr. Podbury ! Are n't you going to admire my purchases ? They 're real antique \u2014 or if they are n't , they 'll wear all the better .... There , I believe I 'll just have to run back a minute \u2014 do n't you put those things in the gondola yet , Mr. Culchard , or they 'll get stolen .", "Constance , and \u2014 er \u2014 until recently \u2014\u2014", "Podbury ?", "I did , my dear Podbury . But it never occurred to me that the fancy would take you to get tired of a place before you got there !", "If Podbury wo n't come down to breakfast at a decent hour , he can n't complain if I \u2014\u2014 I wonder if he heard Miss Trotter say she was thinking of coming here this morning . Somehow , I should like that girl to have a more correct comprehension of my character . I do n't so much mind her thinking me fastidious and exclusive . I dare say I am \u2014 but I do object to being made out a hopeless melancholiac !So these are Wiertz 's masterpieces , eh ? h 'm . Strenuous , vigorous ,\u2014 a trifle crude , perhaps . Did n't he refuse all offers for his pictures during his lifetime ? Hardly think he could have been overwhelmed with applications for the one opposite .Not a dining-room picture . Still , I like his independence \u2014 work up rather well in a sonnet . Let me see .\u201c He scorned to ply his sombre brush for hire . \u201d Now if I read that to Podbury , he 'd pretend to think I was treating of a shoe-black on strike ! Podbury is so utterly deficient in reverence .THE DAUGHTER\u201c I could not \u2018 elp fancying this was the artist 's por-portrait ?\u2014 portent ?\u2014 no , protest against des-des \u2014despoticism , and tyranny , but I see it is only \u2014 Por-Porliffymus fasting upon the companions of Ulyces . \u201d Her Male Parent .

I find him distasteful to me , and avoid him as much as I can , that 's all . I wish , Podbury , er \u2014 I almost wish you could have stayed with me , instead of allowing the Prendergasts to carry you off as they did . You would have kept Van Boodeler in order .", "You used to say she was n't what you call cultivated .", "Good Heavens , no \u2014 what a very grotesque idea of yours , my dear fellow !", "You 're perfectly welcome \u2014 when I 've had mine . I 'll \u2014 er \u2014 wish you good evening .CHAPTER XI . Courtship according to Mr. Ruskin . SCENE \u2014 A Balcony outside the Musik-Saal of the Insel Hotel , Constance . MISS PRENDERGAST is seated ; CULCHARD is leaning against the railing close by . It is about nine ; the moon has risen , big and yellow , behind the mountains at the further end of the Lake ; small black boats are shooting in and out of her track upon the water ; the beat of the steamers \u2019 paddles is heard as they come into harbour . CULCHARD has just proposed . MISS PRENDERGASTI have already felt very strongly with Ruskin , that no girl should have the cruelty to refuse a proposal \u2014\u2014", "If you expect me to travel for seven years with him , permit me to mention that I simply cannot do it . My leave expires in three weeks .", "No \u2014 I was merely feeling for my note-book . I had a sudden idea for a sonnet , that 's all .", "I must look up in another minute \u2014 and then !

But I 'm free now . Unfortunately my freedom comes too late . Podbury 's Titania is much too enamoured of those ass 's ears of his \u2014\u2014 How the brute will chuckle when he hears of this ! But he wo n't hear of it from me . I 'll go in and pack and be off to-morrow morning before he 's up ! NEXT MORNING ; IN THE HALL OF THE GRAND HOTEL DANDOLO .

I will leave it for an occasion when you are \u2014 er \u2014 in a fitter frame of mind for its perusal .", "Well , I brought an Epitome of Herbert Spencer 's Synthetic Philosophy away with me to dip into occasionally . It seems a very able summary , and you are welcome to it , if it 's of any use to you .", "Thanks , but I am no equestrian .He seems to manage well enough without me . And yet I do think my society would be more good for him than \u2014\u2014. Why did he want to borrow that book , though ? Can my influence after all \u2014\u2014ON THE TERRACE OF THE BURG .

We shall have this sort of thing all the afternoon now !", "Well , we might take a turn later on , and see the effect of St. Gudule in the moonlight .", "And what did the tunny \u2014 I mean the Manager \u2014 say to that ?", "You 'll be grateful to me by-and-by .", "I can quite understand that .

And , by the way , excuse me , but is it altogether prudent to keep your tickets in an outside pocket like that ? I always keep mine , with my money , in a special case in an inner pocket , with a buttoned flap \u2014 then I know I can n't lose them .", "Oh \u2014 er \u2014 Podbury , I 'm off . Going to lunch somewhere with the \u2014 ah \u2014 Trotters . See you at table d'hote this evening , I suppose ? Good-bye .", "I do mind \u2014 I must . I am not accustomed to hear myself called a \u2014 a jabberer !", "I could not have believed any amount of bites could have made such a terrible difference in her . She looks positively plain !

Er \u2014 will you excuse me ?", "Rowing be \u2014\u2014No ; but just consider , my dear Podbury . I assure you you 'll find Nuremberg a most delightful old place .

Ah , well , I wo n't exult over him .", "It 's very unfortunate that she will insist on idealizing me like this !", "You especially , my dear Podbury . In fact , I doubt if you 're half grateful enough !", "I did not say so . But I am not prepared to deny that I have been waiting here with some such expectation .", "If that 's your idea of a joke , all I can say is \u2014\u2014", "All I am driving at is this : Could n't we two \u2014 er \u2014 agree to effect a reconciliation between the two ladies ? So much pleasanter for \u2014 er \u2014 all parties !", "That has its charm , no doubt . But do n't you find Miss Prendergast a mine of information on Italian Art and History ?", "I should not advise you to do so . It is possible she may have gone there with the \u2014 er \u2014 expectation of being joined by \u2014 by somebody else .", "You have chosen an inspiring scene , rich with historical interest .", "It is most unsatisfactory ; but at least Podbury is disposed of !

It would be an unspeakable delight to watch the expansion of a fresh young soul in that rich mediaeval atmosphere !", "I know . I mean , you told me that before . And I have tasted tunny .", "She said she had a headache , and made her father and Van Boodeler go out on the lake without her . But she certainly gave me to understand that she might come out when the band played , if she felt better . The question is , whether she means to feel better or not . She is the most tantalizing girl ! I do n't know what to make of her . Not a single reference , as yet , to that last talk we had at Bingen . I must see if I can n't recall it to her memory \u2014 if she comes . I 'll wait here , on the chance of it \u2014 we are not likely to be dis \u2014\u2014.

I am much mistaken in Miss Trotter if she will attach the slightest importance to a mere temporary \u2014 er \u2014 disfigurement . These swellings never do last long . Do they now ?", "As you please .Ca n't meet my eye . Good ! I shall go on treating her distantly for a little . I wonder if I look indifferent enough from behind ? Shall I cross one foot ? Better not \u2014 she may have begun sketching me . If she imagines I 'm susceptible to feminine flattery of this palpable kind , she 'll \u2014\u2014 how her voice shook , though , when she spoke . Poor girl , she 's afraid she offended me by laughing \u2014 and I did think she had more sense than to \u2014 but I must n't be too hard on her . I 'm afraid she 's already beginning to think too much of \u2014 and with my peculiar position with Miss Trotter \u2014\u2014 not that there 's anything definite at present , still \u2014\u2014Ahem , Miss Prendergast \u2014 am I standing as you wish ?She does n't answer \u2014 too absorbed , and I can n't hear that idiot \u2014 found he has n't scored so much after all , and gone off in a huff , I expect . So much the better ! What a time she is over this , and how quiet she keeps ! I wish I knew whether it was coquetry or \u2014 shall I turn round and see ? No , I must be perfectly indifferent . And she did laugh at me . I distinctly saw her . Still , if she 's sorry , this would be an excellent opportunity for \u2014Miss Prendergast !May I take it that you regret having been betrayed into momentary approbation of a miserable piece of flippancy ? If so , let me assure you \u2014Podbury again ! He must have planned this \u2014 with her ! It is too much . I have done \u2014 yes \u2014 done with the pair of them ! CHAPTER X . + Podbury insists on an Explanation .+ SCENE \u2014 A flight of steps by the lake in the grounds of the Insel Hotel , Constance . Time , late afternoon . A small boat , containing three persons , is just visible far out on the glassy grey-green water . BOB PRENDERGAST and PODBURY are perched side by side on a parapet , smoking disconsolately .", "I confess I did not think a few mosquito-bites would have quite such an effect upon you !", "The Bayrischer-Hof . Why ?", "I have certainly not encountered any insuperable difficulties in his works as yet .", "Ah , well , my dear Podbury , one must n't expect too much , must one ?", "Few-fitty-fitty-fitty-fa-di-fee-fee-foo ; few \u2014\u2014 After all , Podbury , I do n't know that I care so much about Nuremberg . They \u2014 they say it 's a good deal changed from what it was .", "It is not ; it is a Government Office , and I am in the Pigeonhole and Docket Department , with important duties to discharge . I hope you did n't imagine I sold ribbons and calico over a counter ?", "Trotter !... They 're sitting down on the grass below !", "Now this is a thing that can only be properly enjoyed when one is by oneself . The mere presence of Podbury \u2014 well , thank goodness , he 's found more congenial company .That looks like an English girl sketching on the next seat . Rather a fine profile , so regular \u2014 general air of repose about her . Singular , now I think of it , how little repose there is about Maud .Dear me , she has left her india-rubber behind her . I really think I ought \u2014\u2014Am I mistaken in supposing that this piece of india-rubber is your property ?", "I \u2014 er \u2014 have not been consulted . Are they \u2014 er \u2014 all going ?", "I am no more conscious of \u201c jawing \u201d than \u201c jabbering , \u201d and if that is how I am to be spoken to \u2014\u2014!", "If Charley Van Boodeler was engaged to her , I suppose he 'd be there . Pshaw ! What does it matter ? Somehow , I rather wish now that I 'd \u2014 but perhaps we shall get into conversation presently . Hang it , here 's that fellow Podbury back again ! Wish to goodness he 'd \u2014\u2014Hallo , so you have n't started yet ?", "See ? I can hear one singing in my ear at this moment .You would open the window !", "We are going through scenery like this , and all you think of is \u2014 lunch !You may give me one of those sandwiches . What made you get veal ? and the bread 's all crust , too ! Thanks , I 'll take some claret ....Dear me , we 're at the top already ! These rocks shut out the valley altogether \u2014 much colder at this height , eh ? Do n't you find this keen air most exhilarating ?", "\u201c I saw from out the wave her structures rise , As from the stroke of the enchanter 's wand . \u201d", "I \u2014 ah \u2014 which lady are you referring to ?Oh ... I \u2014 I see \u2014 precisely , quite so !I beg your pardon , you were describing how you caught a tunny ? Pray continue .", "If you want to know , I am \u201c corking down , \u201d to adopt your elegant expression , a sonnet that suggested itself to me .", "Do n't be too down-hearted , my dear Podbury . I happen to know that she likes you \u2014 she told me as much last night . Did Miss Prendergast \u2014 er \u2014 say anything to that effect about me ?", "By the way , I wish you had n't been in such a hurry to come straight on . I particularly wished to stop at Bruges , and see the Memlings .", "It 's quite impossible to make them hear down there , and it 's no fault of ours if their voices reach us occasionally . And it does seem to me , Podbury , that , in a matter which may be of vital importance to me \u2014 to us both \u2014 it would be absurd to be over-scrupulous . But of course you will please yourself . I intend to remain where I am .", "If I remember rightly , you yourself were not insensible to Miss", "A mean cuss ? Me ! Really , this unjustifiable language is most \u2014\u2014!", "Mean ? because I \u2014\u2014!Now we can examine these monuments in peace \u2014 they are really \u2014 er \u2014 unique examples of the sepulchral pomp of Italian mediaevalism .", "Well , my dear Podbury , our \u2014 er \u2014 expedition has turned out rather disastrously !", "Almost .It is really most refreshing ."], "play_index": 27, "act_index": 27}, {"query": ["Hang that fellow !

Mr. Culchard is above that sort of thing , I dare say .", "That 's all . And I 'm feeling a bit done , you know . Been doing the Correr Museum all the morning , and not lunched yet ! So Miss Trotter 's looking at ornamental metal-work ? Rather fun that , eh ?", "Yes , I am , I tell you . I 'm not grumbling , am I ? I know as well as you do she 's miles too good for me . Have n't I said so ? Then what the devil do you keep on nagging at me for , eh ?", "Anything for a quiet life !Dover to Ostend ? Never been there \u2014 like to see what Ostend 's like . But why did n't you go by Calais ?\u2014 shorter , you know .", "We 've seen so little of one another lately that it can hardly make much difference \u2014 to either of us \u2014 can it ?", "Oh , is that all , my dear fellow ?I knew I 'd have you ! Why , I made that up myself as I went along , and if you understand it , it 's a jolly sight more than I do !", "Did n't take much forcing , after he once heard me call him \u201c Lord Uppersole \u201d ! Where are all the others , eh ? Thought we were going up to the Villa Serbelloni this afternoon .", "Oh \u2014 er \u2014 I would n't say that , but he 's a queer kind of chap rather , takes prejudices into his head and all that . I would n't trouble about him if I were you \u2014 not worth it , y \u2019 know .", "Ha , cheery picture that !", "Oh , it was only to get a rise out of you . I never meant to keep you to it , of course . And I say , were n't you sold , though ? Did n't I lead up to it beautifully ?Score to me , eh !", "Thanks awfully , old chap . I knew you 'd oblige .", "There you go again ! I can n't stand being jawed at , Culchard , and I wo n't !", "No \u2014 not this side \u2014 just opposite .Now do n't you see him ? As playful as ever , is n't he ! Do n't try to make out it was an accident , old fellow . Miss Prendergast knows you !", "I believe so . You need n't be afraid , you know . Hypatia wo n't have the chance of ragging you now \u2014 she and Miss Trotter have had a bit of a breeze .", "Trotter immense sport in the shops and that ?", "No , but you 've a pretty good idea that she is , though . And I know how it will be . You 'll be going about with her all the time , and I shall be shunted on to the old man ! I do n't see it , you know !I say \u2014 here 's a pretty fix ! Look here , old fellow , doosid annoying thing , but I can n't find my purse \u2014 must have lost it somewhere !", "Thanks , old chap ! I 'd no idea you were doing all this , you know . But just tell me this , what did she say about me ?", "I know I did . That 's just what I like about her ! At least \u2014 well , we both ought to think ourselves uncommonly lucky beggars , I 'm sure !", "Oh , he 's affable enough \u2014 for a boot-maker .

CHAPTER XX . + Put not your Faith in \u2018 Fidibus . '+ SCENE \u2014 The interior of a covered gondola , which is conveying CULCHARD and PODBURY from the Railway Station to the Hotel Dandolo , Venice . The gondola is gliding with a gentle sidelong heave under shadowy bridges of stone and cast-iron , round sharp corners , and past mysterious blank walls , and old scroll-work gateways , which look ghostly in the moonlight .", "Is it ? You always gave out that she was n't your style at all , and you only regarded her as a \u201c study , \u201d and rot like that . How could I tell you would go and cut me out ?", "Well , I call Mark Twain funny anyhow . But I 'm going in for study now . I am \u2014 honour bright ! I 'm swotting up Spencer \u2014 look !", "Not much mistake about that \u2014 but there , it 's no good talking about it . Jolly that brown and yellow sail looks on the fruit barge there . See ?", "What 's he doing that for ?", "My name 's Podbury \u2014 plain Podbury , but you 're quite right . You have met me \u2014 and you 've met my bootmaker too , \u201c Lord Uppersole , \u201d eh ? That 's where the mistake came in !", "I do n't care if I do \u2014 it may cheer me up a bit . Florence , eh ?\u2014 and Naples ? I should n't mind a look at Florence . Or Rome . How about Rome , now ?", "Ca n't say \u2014 but a pleasanter one than Venice will get of you without it . You do n't mean to face the fair Miss Trotter while you 're like that , do you ?", "Oh , all right , I 'll keep dark . But she 's bound to know sooner or later , now she and Miss Trotter have struck up such a friendship . And Hypatia will be awfully pleased about it \u2014 why should n't she , you know ? ... I 'm going to see if there 's any one on the tennis-court , and get a game if I can . Ta-ta !", "Oh , beg pardon , did n't see you , old fellow . Awfully obliged ; jam it down anywhere , andI say , I want to introduce you to \u2014\u2014", "She may smile her head off for all I care .Here we are at Nuremberg . What hotel did you say you are going to ?", "Been having a talk with the porter . He says there 's a big fair over by the Station du Midi , and it 's worth seeing . Are you game to come along and sample it , eh ?", "Well , you see , it 's just this : there 's a fellow staying at my hotel \u2014 Prendergast , his name is \u2014 rattling good sort \u2014 and I 've rather chummed up with him , and \u2014 and he 's travelling with a relation of his , and \u2014 well , the fact is , they rather made a point of my going on to Constance with them , do n't you see ? But I daresay we could work it so as to go on all together . I 'll see what they say about it .", "Oh , yes , I see that . But then I 'm not , do n't you know \u2014 so there we are !", "Only one of the traces \u2014 they 've done it up with a penny ball of string , but I dare say it will stand the strain . You are n't half enjoying the view , old fellow .", "Her , you know ! What were you going to propose ?", "Spencer , eh ?\u2014 he 's a stiff kind of old bird , ai n't he ? He 'll do me to-rights , thanks .", "De trop or not , I mean going \u2014 she shall choose between us .", "But I should n't have said Miss Trotter was exactly harsh to me \u2014 lately , at all events .", "Whew , old chap ! I say , I would n't be you for something ! Wo n't you catch it when you do turn up ? But look here \u2014 as things are , we may as well travel home together , eh ?", "If that 's meant to be cutting , I should save it up for that novel of yours ; it may seem smart \u2014 there !", "Did you , by Jove ? Porter , I say , never mind about that luggage . Do you happen to know if Mr. and Miss Trotter \u2014 the American gentleman and his daughter \u2014 are down yet ?", "All right , old boy . I would n't bother you , only Miss Prendergast wants a figure for her foreground , and I said I 'd ask you if you 'd keep just as you are for a few minutes . Do you mind ?", "Then I \u2014 I suppose it 's all settled \u2014 with Miss T .\u2014 you know \u2014 eh ?", "I say , old chappie \u2014\u2014", "I 'm willing enough to drop it . And I shall turn in now \u2014 it 's late . You coming ?", "Yes , met Bob just now . They 've gone to the Europa , but we 've arranged to take a gondola together , and go about . They 're to pick me up here . Ah , that looks rather like them .How are you , Miss Prendergast ? Here I am , you see .", "Yes , we 'll do Switzerland \u2014 and run back by Paris , eh ? Not much to do in Switzerland , though , after all !", "It 's all bosh our travelling together if we 're not to have any discussions . You 've been on the sulk long enough . And I 'll thank you to inform me what you 're after here , going about alone with Miss Prendergast like this , in the Museum with her all the morning , and on the lake again this afternoon \u2014 it wo n't do , you know !", "You can n't hate it more than I do \u2014 but what can I do ?I 've tried rotting him , but somehow he always manages to get the best of it in the end . I never saw such a beggar to hang on !", "No , I 'm not . It 's those filthy canals . And the way you talk \u2014 as if a girl like Miss Trotter was n't \u2014\u2014!", "Have you , though ? But of course there 's nothing of that about her . Only \u2014 well , it do n't signify .", "That 's my look out . It can n't be worse than going about with you and listening while you crow and drivel about her , that 's one comfort !", "Must . Promised old Bob I 'd relieve guard in ten minutes . Ta-ta .", "It 's enough for me \u2014 especially when you make yourself so doosid amiable as this . You need n't alarm yourself \u2014 you wo n't have any more of my company than I can help ; only I must say , for two fellows who came out to do a tour together , it 's \u2014\u2014", "Perhaps I had better dismiss my chap , and take on Mr. Culchard too ?", "I did n't know him then , you see . And what made me agree to come away with him at all is beyond me . It was all Hughie Rose 's doing \u2014 he said we should get on together like blazes . So we have \u2014 very like blazes !", "Oh , do n't mind me . I 'm getting over it . But I must congratulate you on better luck .", "Up above ? And Hypatia just gone up with Bob ! Whew , there 'll be ructions presently ! Well out of it , you and I ! So it 's Boodeler 's turn now ? That 's rough on you \u2014 after Hypatia had whistled poor old Bob off . As much out in the cold as ever , eh ?", "Not I , old fellow \u2014 got other things to talk about . But I do n't quite see why \u2014\u2014", "What if she is , she do n't understand a word we 're saying . I want to hear all about Her , you know .", "Y \u2014 yes . I believe I do . Think they grew that sort of fig-tree formerly , or is it \u2014 a \u2014 allegorical ?", "It 's making me deuced peckish , I know that \u2014 how about lunch , eh !", "It 's all very well for you to talk \u2014 with Miss Trotter all to yourself . I suppose you 're regularly engaged by this time , eh ?", "Well , let him decay somewhere else , that 's all ! Just tell the Conductor to shove him in the interieur , do , while I nip into the coupe and keep our places .IN THE BERNARDINO PASS , DURING THE ASCENT .", "Find you see it better with your eyes shut ? But I say , I wish you 'd explain what you were sniggering at .", "Then I must . If that 's what he 's really after , I think I can stop his little game . I 'll try , at any rate . It 's a long worm that has no turning , and I 've had about enough of it . The first chance I get , I 'll go for him .", "Oh ! Then you have n't been arranging to meet her again on my account ?", "I say , old fellow , we 're to be travelling companions again , after all . And a jolly good thing , too , I think !... eh ?", "I say , you ai n't asleep , are you ? Think we shall see anything of them to-morrow , eh ?", "Do n't talk bosh ! Who said she was forward and bad form and all the rest of it in the courtyard that first evening ? She was close by , and heard every word of it , I should n't wonder .", "Oh , never mind all that now . We 're companions in misfortune , you know , and we 'd better stick together , and keep each other 's spirits up . After all , you 're in a much worse hat than I am !", "I was in no hurry , I can tell you . She 's a ripping little girl \u2014 tremendous fun . What do you think she asked me about you ?", "All right ! And now allow me to have the pleasure of restoring your pocket-book and note-case . They did fall out on the Niederwald , and it was a good job for you I was behind and saw them drop . You must really be careful , dear boy . Ai n't you going to say \u201c ta \u201d for them ?", "I ? why should I be \u2014 about what ?", "Phew ! The whole bag of tricks gone ! You 're lucky if you get them again . Any number of tramps and beggars all the way up . Should n't have taken off your coat \u2014 very careless of you !", "You mean she gave you a rendezvous there ? I do n't believe it !", "Oh , I say , Miss Prendergast , you know . Make it something else . Do !", "Wobbled back to Miss Trotter again , eh ? Matter of taste , of course , but , for my part , I think your first impression of her was nearer the truth \u2014 she 's not what I call a highly cultivated sort of girl , y \u2019 know .", "So should I . No fun in mountains \u2014 unless you go up \u2018 em . What do you think of choosing some quiet place , where nobody ever goes \u2014 say in France or Germany \u2014 and , sticking to that .

And I 'm deuced sorry I spoke \u2014 there !", "Um \u2014 do n't see any particular dignity in missing the train , myself !", "Should n't he ? I 'm a little new to the business , you see , and it does strike me \u2014\u2014 but never mind . When am I to trot him off ?", "We can talk all right now , eh ? They wo n't understand . Look here , old fellow , I do n't mind owning I 'm rather down in the mouth about \u2014\u2014 you know what . I should n't care so much if there was any chance of our coming across them again .", "So I am . She 's in the Church with Bob , so I said I 'd come out and keep an eye on the gondola . Nothing much to see in there , you know !", "Oh , that 's all right ! I do n't care where I go ! All I want is , to see as much as we can in the time \u2014 leave all the rest to you . I 'll sit here while you get the tickets . AN OLD LADYOh , I beg your pardon , but could you inform me if the 1. 55 train from Calais to Basle stops long enough for refreshments anywhere , and where they examine the luggage , and if I can leave my hand-bag in the carriage , and whether there is an English service at Yodeldorf , and is it held in the hotel , and Evangelical , or High Church , and are the sittings free , and what Hymn-book they use ?", "Hold on a bit . Wait till you 've heard my penance . She told me to cart you off . Now , then !", "Like your shares , eh , old chap ? And mine too , for that matter . Well , I 'm ready enough to go . Only , for goodness \u2019 sake , let 's get away without being seen !", "So 's mine . By the way , have you got a book \u2014 I do n't mean a novel , but a regular improving book \u2014 the stodgier the better \u2014 to lend a fellow ?", "Here we are again , eh ?Where 's the fascinating Miss Trotter ? How do you come to be off duty like this ?", "A \u2014 thanks . I \u2014 I mean , I know I should only be in your way and all that . And \u2014 I 'd better say good-bye , Miss Prendergast . You wo n't want me in the gondola just now , I 'm sure . I can easily get another .", "Oh , I should say so \u2014 yes . What theory ?", "I do n't know about that . How about Miss Trotter ?", "It 's not safe for your sister ,\u2014 I 'm hanged if it is \u2014 going out in a boat with a duffer like Culchard ! He 'll upset her as sure as eggs .", "I suppose they charged highest for the lowest seats . Wonder whether a lion ever nipped up and helped himself to some fat old buffer in the Stalls when the martyrs turned out a leaner lot than usual !", "Not much of your original features , old fellow !You 've got a pair of cheeks like a raised map !", "So I 'm told ; a fair , down in the new part . I could tell you how to get to it , if you thought of going .", "Thanks , we shall see .CHAPTER VIII . + Podbury finds Consolation .+ SCENE \u2014 A Bridge over the Pegnitz , at Nuremberg . Time , afternoon . The shadows of the old gabled and balconied houses are thrown sharply on the reddish-yellow water . Above the steep speckled roofs , the spires of St. Lorenz glitter against the blue sky . CULCHARD is leaning listlessly upon the parapet of the bridge . CULCHARDHow mediaeval it all is , and how infinitely restful !What a blessed relief to be without that fellow Podbury ! He 's very careful to keep out of my way \u2014 I 've scarcely seen him since I 've been here . He must find it dreadfully dull .I ought to find material for a colour-sonnet here , with these subdued grey tones , those dull coppery-greens , and the glowing reds of the conical caps of those towers . I ought \u2014 but I do n't . I fancy that half-engagement to Maud Trotter must have scared away the Muse . I wonder if Podbury has really gone yet ?Er \u2014 so you 're still at Nuremberg ?", "Capital thing for them too , Sir . Know a man who never gives his cattle anything else .", "Oh , not more than a month or so , I dare say , if you can keep from touching them .Excuse me , old chap , but I just got you in a new light . Those mosquitoes have paid you out for that pastille \u2014 by Jove , they have ! LANDING-STEPS AND ENTRANCE OF THE HOTEL . NINE A. M .", "Well , it 's beastly selfish , that 's all ! I know why you 're so keen about it , too . Because the Trotters are going .", "I do n't believe he 'll go , you know , for one thing !", "Hi ! sprechen sie Franzoesisch , oder was ? il-y-a quelque chose dans mon siege , dites-lui de \u2014 what the deuce is the French for \u201c clear out \u201d ?", "Capital ! And \u2014 er \u2014 lunch at the Academy , I suppose ?", "Why , my dear chap , I thought you wanted \u2018 em kept out of your way !CHAPTER III . Culchard comes out of his Shell . SCENE \u2014 On the Coach from Braine l'Alleud to Waterloo . The vehicle has a Belgian driver , but the conductor is a true-born Briton . MR. CYRUS K. TROTTER and his daughter are behind with PODBURY . CULCHARD , who is not as yet sufficiently on speaking terms with his friend to ask for an introduction , is on the box-seat in front .", "Then you really are n't cut up \u2014 about Miss T. you know ?", "\u2014 Now then , this party as what came from Fla-an-ders , What had the com-plex-i-on rich and rare , He went and took and caught the yaller ja-un-ders \u2014 And his complexion is n't what it were !", "Look here , Culchard , I 'd just like to know what you mean by the way you 're going on .", "I say , Culchard , they 're going to talk about us . Ought we to listen , eh ? Better let them know we 're here ?"], "true_target": ["Violet powder !

It 's Charley Van Stickinthemud 's turn now ! We 've got to go to Nuremberg . You can n't get out of it , after gassing so much about the place . When you 've once decided , you know , it 's final !", "I do n't allow anything of the sort . She liked me well enough till \u2014 till you came in and set her against me , and you may think it friendly if you like , but I call it shabby \u2014 confoundedly shabby .", "If you only knew what he 's like when he 's nasty , you 'd let me off \u2014 you would , really . But there , to please you , I 'll do it . I 'll stand him as long as ever I can \u2014 \u2018 pon my honour I will . Only you 'll make it up to me afterwards , wo n't you now ?", "It 's the last laugh , old man ,\u2014 and it 's the best !CHAPTER VII . A Dissolution of Partnership . SCENE \u2014 A Second-Class Compartment on the line between Wurzburg and Nuremberg . PODBURY has been dull and depressed all day , not having recovered from the parting with MISS TROTTER . CULCHARD , on the contrary , is almost ostentatiously cheerful . PODBURY is intensely anxious to find out how far his spirits are genuine , but \u2014 partly from shyness , and partly because some of their fellow travellers have been English \u2014 he has hesitated to introduce the subject . At last , however , they are alone , and he is determined to have it out on the very first opportunity .", "That 's the place for me , then . Or could we push on to Vienna ? Never seen Vienna .", "I say , old boy , I 'd no notion you were such a nailing good chap ? Nein , danky .Cheeky little beggar . But do you really think anything will \u2014 er \u2014 come of it , if we do meet her again \u2014 do you now ?", "More water than ground in a place like this , eh ? But I know what you mean \u2014 we must be duffers if we do n't leave Venice engaged men \u2014 which we 're not as yet , worse luck !", "Together ? That 's a nuisance ! Now we shall have to wait till they separate \u2014 sure to squabble , sooner or later .", "With all the pleasure in life , dear boy \u2014 on your own conditions , you know . I mean , if I pay the piper , I call the tune . Now , I do n't cotton to Nuremberg somehow ; I 'd rather go straight on to Constance ; we could get some rowing there .", "Much obliged , old chap ; but I 'm otherwise engaged . Being kept in order myself . Oh , I like it , you know . She 's developing my mind like winking . Spent the whole morning at the Brera , mugging up these old Italian Johnnies . They really are clinkers , you know . Raphael , eh ?\u2014 and Giotto , and Mantegna , and all that lot . As Hypatia says , for intensity of \u2014 er \u2014 religious feeling , and \u2014 and subtlety of symbolism , and \u2014 and so on , they simply take the cake \u2014 romp in , and the rest nowhere ! I 'm getting quite the connoisseur , I can tell you !", "Look here , old fellow , Miss Prendergast would like to sit down , I know ; so do n't you bother about keeping with us if you 'd rather not , you know !", "One minute , Culchard .I say , for goodness \u2019 sake , do n't let 's have that old organ-grinding Johnny in the coupe with us !", "Nothing ? What became of the green coat and white waistcoat , then , eh ?", "Bruges , eh ? Capital ! Anything particular going on there ? No ? It do n't matter . And Ghent \u2014 let 's see , was n't that where they brought the good news from ? Yes , we 'll stop at Ghent \u2014 if we 've time . Then \u2014 Brussels ? Good deal of work to be done there , I suppose , sightseeing , and that ? I like a place where you can moon about without being bothered myself ; now , at Brussels \u2014 never mind , I was only thinking .", "Only that I mean to propose too . I dare say my chances are as good as yours \u2014 even now .", "Neither , as it happens . I 'm for Bingen , too , as you wo n't go anywhere else . Though you did say when we started , that the advantage of travelling like this was that we could go on or stop just as the fancy took us !", "Do n't I just \u2014 rather too deep for me , y \u2019 know ! I say , is n't Miss", "Uppersole ? No \u2014 he 's over at Cadenabbia , I believe .", "I know as well as you do that we are booked for Nuremberg ; but what I say is \u2014 that 's no earthly reason why we should go there !", "The deuce she did n't ! Did she tell you Ruskin 's ideas about courtship being a probation , and ask you if you were ready to be under vow for her , by any chance ?", "I say , old chappie , bar fireworks , you know ! What the deuce are you up to over there ?", "It \u2014 it 's quite decent . It was new when I came away ! BOBHang it all , Patia ! Do you want him to come out in a chimney-pot ? Jump in , old fellow , never mind your tile ?", "Oh , I do n't know that I care about lunch myself \u2014 much .", "No , look here , my friend ; you go and tell that gentleman all about it; he 's very interested in hearing what Napoleon wore or did n't wear .GUIDEBot ven zey com qvite nearer , zey vind ze rade line no ze Inglis soldiers \u2014 nossing bot a breek vall , viz ze moskets \u2014 \u201c Prown Pesses , \u201d you coal dem \u2014 shdeekin out of ze \u2018 oles !

Podbury is unpleasantly Surprised . SCENE \u2014 The Wiertz Museum at Brussels , a large and well-lighted gallery containing the works of the celebrated Belgian , which are reducing a limited number of spectators to the usual degree of stupefaction . Enter CULCHARD , who seats himself on a central ottoman .", "You have , and no mistake . She 's regularly taken me in hand , do n't you know \u2014 she says I 've no intelligent appreciation of Italian Art ; and gad , I believe she 's right there ! But I 'm pulling up \u2014 bound to teach you a lot , seeing all the old altar-pieces I do ! And she gives me the right tips , do n't you see ; she 's no end of a clever girl , so well-read and all that ! But I say \u2014 about Miss Trotter ? Do n't want to be inquisitive , you know , but you do n't seem to be much about with her .", "Do n't see that either . Not going to let that beast , Van Boodeler , have it all his own way !", "No , \u201c Ignoto Fiammingo , \u201d do n't you know . I like that chap 's style \u2014 what I call thoroughly Venetian .", "Now drop it , Culchard , do you hear ? I wo n't hear a word against either of them . It serves us jolly well right for not knowing our own minds better \u2014 though I no more dreamed that old Bob would \u2014\u2014 Oh , hang it , I can n't talk about it yet !", "I 'm looking , old chap . It 's all there , right enough !", "For rest , see guide-books , passim , eh ? Hanged if I can see any structures with this thing on , though ! Let 's have it off , eh ?Hi ! Otez-moi ceci . entendez-vous ?Now a London cabby would see what I wanted at once . This chap 's a fool !", "Oh \u2014 but you find him plain-sailing enough , I suppose ?", "He should n't try to make me out a bigger duffer than I am , then . But I say , you do n't really think it was too bad ? Ah , you 're laughing \u2014 you do n't !", "No , but I mean to say \u2014 does it come up to the mark in the scenery line , you know ?", "Oh , ta-ta !And that 's the fellow who said he wanted to keep out of making friends ! How the dickens am I going to get through the time by myself ?Here , that 's enough for one day .", "I 'll risk it . It must be a devilish funny joke to tickle you like that . Come , out with it !", "Glad to hear it .\u2018 Jove , if he only knew what I know !", "Wonder how long I shall take to get over Culchard 's manner .I wish old Hughie was coming \u2014 he 'd give me a leg over !

It is just after table d'hote ; PODBURY and CULCHARD are sitting on a covered terrace , with coffee . PODBURYNot such a bad dinner ! Expect they 'll rook us a lot for it , though . Rather fun , seeing the waiters all troop in with a fresh course , when the proprietor rang his bell . Like a ballet at the Empire \u2014 eh ? CULCHARDI 'm not in a position to say .

CHAPTER XXIII . + PEARLS AND PIGS .+ SCENE \u2014 The Lower Hall of the Scuola di San Rocco , Venice . British Tourists discovered studying the Tintorets on the walls and ceiling by the aid of Ruskin , Hare , and Baedeker , from which they read aloud , instructively , to one another . MISS PRENDERGAST has brought \u201c The Stones of Venice \u201d for the benefit of her brother and PODBURY . Long self-repression has reduced PODBURY to that unpleasantly hysterical condition known as \u201c a fit of the giggles , \u201d which , however , has hitherto escaped detection .", "So shall I . No end of a shirty letter from the Governor . Wants to know how much longer I expect him to be tied to the office . Old humbug , when he only turns up twice a week for a couple of hours !", "Rather ! Told her it was t'other way round , and I was looking after you . Said you were suffering from melancholia , but were not absolutely dangerous .", "The same to you , and many of \u2018 em , old chap ! Hullo , we 're going to stop at this inn . Let 's get out and stretch our legs and have some coffee .", "Glass up , Gondolier ... stifling in this cab ... drive me ... nearest Doge .", "Come , old chap , do n't get your shirt out with me . Not my fault if she 's found out you think yourself too big a swell for her , is it ?", "There were only two seats on that coach , and they would n't wait for the next . I do n't know why , unless it was that they saw you coming down the steps . She can n't stand you at any price .", "Not dull \u2014 a trifle out of sorts , that 's all . Fact is , I do n't think Venice agrees with me . All this messing about down beastly back-courts and canals and in stuffy churches \u2014 it can n't be healthy , you know ! And they 've no drainage . I only hope I have n't caught something , as it is . I 've that kind of sinking feeling , and a general lowness \u2014 She says I lunch too heavily \u2014 but I swear it 's more than that !", "Much better cork that up , old chap \u2014 had n't he , Miss Trotter ?", "I 've no occasion for any at present , thank you .CHAPTER V . Culchard has the Best of it . SCENE \u2014 Upper deck of the Rhine Steamer , Koenig Wilhelm , somewhere between Bonn and Bingen . The little tables on deck are occupied by English , American , and German tourists , drinking various liquids , from hock to Pilsener beer , and eating veal cutlets . MR. CYRUS K. TROTTER is on the lower deck , discussing the comparative merits of the New York hotels with a fellow countryman . MISS MAUD S. TROTTER is seated on the afterdeck in close conversation with CULCHARD . PODBURY is perched on a camp-stool in the forward part . Near him a British Matron , with a red-haired son , in a green and black blazer , and a blue flannel nightcap , and a bevy of rabbit-faced daughters , are patronising a tame German Student in spectacles , who speaks a little English .", "But I thought you said you 'd been speaking up for me ! What did you talk about then ?", "Oh , that 's it , is it ? But look here , why not tit up whether we go on or stay ?", "Go on \u2014 never mind me . Bless you , I 'm under vow for her too , my dear boy . Fact !", "Thanks \u2014 I wo n't trouble you . Only it does seem rather rough on fellows , do n't you know . If every one went on his plan \u2014 well , there would n't be many marriages ! Still , I never thought you 'd say \u201c Yes \u201d right off . It 's like my cheek , I know , to ask you at all ; you 're so awfully clever and that . And if there 's a chance for me , I 'm game for anything in the way of a trial . Do n't make it stiffer than you can help , that 's all !", "Well , I 'll just trouble you to explain this \u2014 wait a bit .Ah , here we are \u2014 \u201c And these illusive and primordial cognitions , or pseud-ideas , are homogeneous entities which may be differentiated objectively or subjectively , according as they are presented as Noumenon or Phenomenon . Or , in other words , they are only cognoscible as a colligation of incongruous coalescences . \u201d Now then \u2014 are you going to tell me you can make head or tail of all that ?", "But I say , look here , Sir , we 're going on , and you 've got our place !", "Think you 've made a mistake , really .", "We \u2014 we 're awfully disappointed to have missed them , Mr. Trotter . Afraid we can n't stop now ! Good-bye !CHAPTER XXVI . + Podbury Kisses the Rod .+ SCENE \u2014 On the Lagoons . CULCHARD and PODBURY 'S gondola is nearing Venice . The apricot-tinted diaper on the facade of the Ducal Palace is already distinguishable , and behind its battlements the pearl-grey domes of St. Mark 's shimmer in the warm air . CULCHARD and PODBURY have hardly exchanged a sentence as yet . The former has just left off lugubriously whistling as much as he can remember of \u201c Che faro , \u201d the latter is still humming \u201c The Dead March in Saul , \u201d although in a livelier manner than at first .", "We 're right enough , if the horses do n't happen to stumble . That off-leader is n't over sure-footed \u2014 did you see that ?But what 's the joke about Miss Prendergast ?", "Oh very , do you mind putting your window up ? Thanks . You seem uncommon chirpy to-day . Beginning to get over it , eh ?", "But wo n't you come ? Do . I shall be awfully glad if you will !", "Come along , then \u2014 only look sharp . Sure you do n't mind ? Miss Trotter will be there , you know !", "Well , but look here \u2014 why not stop at Bacharach , and see what sort of a place it is ?", "How on earth are we going to get that beggar out ? Set the Conductor at him , Culchard , do \u2014 you can talk the lingo best !", "If she 's carrying on with that fellow , Culchard , to provoke me , I 'll soon show her how little I \u2014I say , old man , hope I 'm not interrupting you , but I just want to speak to you for a minute , if Miss Trotter will excuse us . Is there any particular point in going as far as Bingen to-night , eh ?", "Well ,\u2014 not exactly , old chap \u2014 not to me , at least . But I say , Miss Trotter did n't tell you that ? Not really ? Hooray ! Then it 's all right \u2014 she may have me after all !", "I see ; I 'd better clear out till the poetry has all gurgled out of him , eh ? Is that the idea ?", "Certainly , old chap . I like you to talk , only not \u2014 not against", "But you just said you had a faither !", "If you ask me , I should call it a simply footling show \u2014 but you were long enough over it .What 's up now ? Nothing gone wrong with the works , eh ?", "Go home ? Why , I can wire to the governor for more , easily enough . We shall have to stay here till it comes , that 's all .", "Well , old chap , your resigning like that has made all the difference to me , I can tell you !", "I \u2014 I dare say . Forgotten all I learnt at school , you know !", "Are they ? A lot of the Venetians seem to wear \u2018 em .Now what are we going to do \u2014 just potter about ?", "My aunt !", "I know . Look here , it 's no use . You must go to Florence by yourself . I simply do n't feel up to it , and that 's the truth . I shall just potter about here till \u2014 till they go .", "Another gone !So you are n't going down to the Cloisters to-night ? I 'm told there 's to be some fun there \u2014 Hide-and-seek , or something \u2014 first-rate place for it , especially now the moon 's up !", "Done with you !Sudden death . You 're Eagle \u2014 I 'm the other Johnny .Eagle ! Confound you ! But I mean to have my innings all the same .", "Oh , are they ? Any way , you 've fetched up your average here . Were n't there enough in the Museum for you ?", "Fancy I saw her down below just now \u2014 with Bob . I expect they 're walking round under the arches .", "Um \u2014 I should be more enchanted if I ever had the faintest notion what the great thinker was driving at . Look here \u2014 here 's a simple little sentence for you !\u201c Let us therefore bear in mind the following :\u2014 That of the whole incident force affecting an aggregate , the effective force is that which remains after deducting the non-effective , that the temporarily effective and the permanently effective vary inversely , and that the molar and molecular changes wrought by the permanently effective force also vary inversely . \u201dAnd that 's only in an Epitome , mind you !", "Oh , that 's all right , old fellow . I 've got over all that business .How soon did you think of moving on ?", "Well , it 's poor fun having to go alone !", "It 's not so easy to tell him as you think . We have n't been on speaking terms these three days . And , after allwe 're supposed to be travelling together , do n't you know ! You might drop him a hint now .", "Safe enough \u2014 unless the wheel catches one \u2014 it was as near as a toucher just then \u2014 are n't you going to smoke ? No ? I am . By the way , what were you so amused about just now , eh ?", "I ?\u2014 is it likely ! I \u2014 I admire her awfully , you know , only she rather seemed to snub me lately .", "Not by way of a change ? Ah , well , it 's a pity \u2014 but I must put up with you as you are , I suppose . You see \u2014\u2014 I 've got that vow to work out .", "Oh , she 'll come round all right , never fear . I only wish I was half as safe with Miss Trotter !", "I \u2014 I 'm really most awfully sorry \u2014 but it came over me suddenly , and I simply could n't help myself !", "So can I hear you buzzing . How the dickens is a fellow to get to sleep while you 're playing Punch and Judy in there ?", "But that cousin of hers \u2014 Charley , you know \u2014 how about him ?", "Eagle ! we 're even so far .This settles it .", "Then I 'm jolly glad you did n't call me earlier , that 's all !", "They take to it like birds . And \u2014 curious thing \u2014 after he 'd tried it a month , all the cows turned yellow and went about chirping and twittering and hopping . Fact , I assure you !", "I \u2014 I did see them \u2014 all of them , on my honour I did ! But it gives me such a crick in my neck !", "Bob , you \u2014 you do n't think your sister really \u2014\u2014 eh ?", "Oh , of course it 's very jolly . Find I get a trifle mixed afterwards , though . And , between ourselves , I would n't mind \u2014 now and then , you know \u2014 just dawdling about among the shops and people , as you and the Trotters do !", "Well , yes . I 've got to meet Prendergast at the Cafe Noris . We 're going to beat up some stables , and see if we can n't hire a couple of gees for an hour or two before dinner . Do you feel inclined for a tittup ?", "Is that our expenses you 're corking down there , Culchard , eh ?", "Rath-er ! But then she 's no end of a classical swell , you know !", "I say , those two do n't seem to hit it off exactly , eh ? Seem sorry they came ! You 'll be glad to hear , old fellow , that we need n't separate after all . Just found my purse in my trouser-pocket !", "Torcello ? Why , that 's where Bob and Miss Prendergast talked of going to-day ! Culchard , old fellow , I 've changed my mind . Sha n't leave to-day , after all . I shall just nip over and see what sort of place Torcello is .", "Rather ! Regular ripping old place this \u2014 suits me down to the ground .

SCENE \u2014 The roof of Milan Cathedral ; the innumerable statues and fretted pinnacles show in dazzling relief against the intense blue sky . Through the open-work of the parapet is seen the vast Piazza , with its yellow toy tram cars , and the small crawling figures which cast inordinately long shadows . All around is a maze of pale brown roofs , and beyond , the green plain blending on the horizon with dove-coloured clouds in a quivering violet haze .

I have no alternative but to release you finally from your vows \u2014 I cannot allow you to remain my suitor any longer .", "Surely , Mr. Podbury , you are aware by this time that Mr. Culchard has a perfect mania for self-sacrifice !AMONG THE RUINS AT THE TOP OF THE HILL .", "Really , Mr. Podbury , I see nothing particularly incomprehensible in that .", "Poor fellows ! I could n't very well say anything more definite at present . By the time I see them again , I may understand my own heart better .

THE PREFACE . If wit has truly been defined , \u201c a propriety of thoughts and words ,\" then that definition will extend to all sorts of poetry ; and , among the rest , to this present entertainment of an opera . Propriety of thought is that fancy which arises naturally from the subject , or which the poet adapts to it ; propriety of words is the clothing of those thoughts with such expressions as are naturally proper to them ; and from both these , if they are judiciously performed , the delight of poetry results . An opera is a poetical tale , or fiction , represented by vocal and instrumental music , adorned with scenes , machines , and dancing . The supposed persons of this musical drama are generally supernatural , as gods , and goddesses , and heroes , which at least are descended from them , and are in due time to be adopted into their number . The subject , therefore , being extended beyond the limits of human nature , admits of that sort of marvellous and surprising conduct , which is rejected in other plays . Human impossibilities are to be received as they are in faith ; because , where gods are introduced , a supreme power is to be understood , and second causes are out of doors ; yet propriety is to be observed even here . The gods are all to manage their peculiar provinces ; and what was attributed by the heathens to one power , ought not to be performed by any other . Phoebus must foretel , Mercury must charm with his caduceus , and Juno must reconcile the quarrels of the marriage-bed ; to conclude , they must all act according to their distinct and peculiar characters . If the persons represented were to speak upon the stage , it would follow , of necessity , that the expressions should be lofty , figurative , and majestical : but the nature of an opera denies the frequent use of these poetical ornaments ; for vocal music , though it often admits a loftiness of sound , yet always exacts an harmonious sweetness ; or , to distinguish yet more justly , the recitative part of the opera requires a more masculine beauty of expression and sound . The other , which , for want of a proper English word , I must call the songish part , must abound in the softness and variety of numbers ; its principal intention being to please the hearing , rather than to gratify the understanding . It appears , indeed , preposterous at first sight , that rhyme , on any consideration , should take place of reason ; but , in order to resolve the problem , this fundamental proposition must be settled , that the first inventors of any art or science , provided they have brought it to perfection , are , in reason , to give laws to it ; and , according to their model , all after-undertakers are to build . Thus , in epic poetry , no man ought to dispute the authority of Homer , who gave the first being to that masterpiece of art , and endued it with that form of perfection in all its parts , that nothing was wanting to its excellency . Virgil therefore , and those very few who have succeeded him , endeavoured not to introduce , or innovate , any thing in a design already perfected , but imitated the plan of the inventor ; and are only so far true heroic poets , as they have built on the foundations of Homer . Thus , Pindar , the author of those Odes , which are so admirably restored by Mr Cowley in our language , ought for ever to be the standard of them ; and we are bound , according to the practice of Horace and Mr Cowley , to copy him . Now , to apply this axiom to our present purpose , whosoever undertakes the writing of an opera , which is a modern invention , though built indeed on the foundation of ethnic worship , is obliged to imitate the design of the Italians , who have not only invented , but brought to perfection , this sort of dramatic musical entertainment . I have not been able , by any search , to get any light , either of the time when it began , or of the first author ; but I have probable reasons , which induce me to believe , that some Italians , having curiously observed the gallantries of the Spanish Moors at their zambras , or royal feasts , where music , songs , and dancing , were in perfection , together with their machines , which are usual at their sortija , or running at the ring , and other solemnities , may possibly have refined upon those moresque divertisements , and produced this delightful entertainment , by leaving out the warlike part of the carousals , and forming a poetical design for the use of the machines , the songs , and dances . But however it began ,we know , that , for some centuries , the knowledge of music has flourished principally in Italy , the mother of learning and of arts; that poetry and painting have been there restored , and so cultivated by Italian masters , that all Europe has been enriched out of their treasury ; and the other parts of it , in relation to those delightful arts , are still as much provincial to Italy , as they were in the time of the Roman empire . Their first operas seem to have been intended for the celebration of the marriages of their princes , or for the magnificence of some general time of joy ; accordingly , the expences of them were from the purse of the sovereign , or of the republic , as they are still practised at Venice , Rome , and at other places , at their carnivals . Savoy and Florence have often used them in their courts , at the weddings of their dukes ; and at Turin particularly , was performed the \u201c Pastor Fido , \u201d written by the famous Guarini , which is a pastoral opera made to solemnise the marriage of a Duke of Savoy . The prologue of it has given the design to all the French ; which is a compliment to the sovereign power by some god or goddess ; so that it looks no less than a kind of embassy from heaven to earth . I said in the beginning of this preface , that the persons represented in operas are generally gods , goddesses , and heroes descended from them , who are supposed to be their peculiar care ; which hinders not , but that meaner persons may sometimes gracefully be introduced , especially if they have relation to those first times , which poets call the Golden Age ; wherein , by reason of their innocence , those happy mortals were supposed to have had a more familiar intercourse with superior beings ; and therefore shepherds might reasonably be admitted , as of all callings the most innocent , the most happy , and who , by reason of the spare time they had , in their almost idle employment , had most leisure to make verses , and to be in love ; without somewhat of which passion , no opera can possibly subsist . It is almost needless to speak any thing of that noble language , in which this musical drama was first invented and performed . All , who are conversant in the Italian , cannot but observe , that it is the softest , the sweetest , the most harmonious , not only of any modern tongue , but even beyond any of the learned . It seems indeed to have been invented for the sake of poetry and music ; the vowels are so abounding in all words , especially in terminations of them , that , excepting some few monosyllables , the whole language ends in them . Then the pronunciation is so manly , and so sonorous , that their very speaking has more of music in it than Dutch poetry and song . It has withal derived , so much copiousness and eloquence from the Greek and Latin , in the composition of words , and the formation of them , that if , after all , we must call it barbarous , it is the most beautiful and most learned of any barbarism in modern tongues ; and we may , at least , as justly praise it , as Pyrrhus did the Roman discipline and martial order , that it was of barbarians ,but had nothing in it of barbarity . This language has in a manner been refined and purified from the Gothic ever since the time of Dante , which is above four hundred years ago ; and the French , who now cast a longing eye to their country , are not less ambitious to possess their elegance in poetry and music ; in both which they labour at impossibilities . It is true , indeed , they have reformed their tongue , and brought both their prose and poetry to a standard ; the sweetness , as well as the purity , is much improved , by throwing off the unnecessary consonants , which made their spelling tedious and their pronunciation harsh : but , after all , as nothing can be improved beyond its own species , or farther than its original nature will allow ; as an ill voice , though ever so thoroughly instructed in the rules of music , can never be brought to sing harmoniously , nor many an honest critic ever arrive to be a good poet ; so neither can the natural harshness of the French , or their perpetual ill accent , be ever refined into perfect harmony like the Italian . The English has yet more natural disadvantages than the French ; our original Teutonic , consisting most in monosyllables , and those incumbered with consonants , cannot possibly be freed from those inconveniencies . The rest of our words , which are derived from the Latin chiefly , and the French , with some small sprinklings of Greek , Italian , and Spanish , are some relief in poetry , and help us to soften our uncouth numbers ; which , together with our English genius , incomparably beyond the trifling of the French , in all the nobler parts of verse , will justly give us the pre-eminence . But , on the other hand , the effeminacy of our pronunciation ,and our scarcity of female rhymes , have left the advantage of musical composition for songs , though not for recitative , to our neighbours . Through these difficulties I have made a shift to struggle in my part of the performance of this opera ; which , as mean as it is , deserves at least a pardon , because it has attempted a discovery beyond any former undertaker of our nation ; only remember , that if there be no north-east passage to be found , the fault is in nature , and not in me ; or , as Ben Jonson tells us in \u201c The Alchymist , \u201d when projection had failed , and the glasses were all broken , there was enough , however , in the bottoms of them , to cure the itch ; so I may thus be positive , that if I have not succeeded as I desire , yet there is somewhat still remaining to satisfy the curiosity , or itch of sight and hearing . Yet I have no great reason to despair ; for I may , without vanity , own some advantages , which are not common to every writer ; such as are the knowledge of the Italian and French language , and the being conversant with some of their best performances in this kind ; which have furnished me with such variety of measures as have given the composer , Monsieur Grabut , what occasions he could wish , to shew his extraordinary talent in diversifying the recitative , the lyrical part , and the chorus ; in all which , not to attribute any thing to my own opinion , the best judges and those too of the best quality , who have honoured his rehearsals with their presence , have no less commended the happiness of his genius than his skill . And let me have the liberty to add one thing , that he has so exactly expressed my sense in all places where I intended to move the passions , that he seems to have entered into my thoughts , and to have been the poet as well as the composer . This I say , not to flatter him , but to do him right ; because amongst some English musicians , and their scholars , who are sure to judge after them , the imputation of being a Frenchman is enough to make a party , who maliciously endeavour to decry him . But the knowledge of Latin and Italian poets , both which he possesses , besides his skill in music , and his being acquainted with all the performances of the French operas , adding to these the good sense to which he is born , have raised him to a degree above any man , who shall pretend to be his rival on our stage . When any of our countrymen excel him , I shall be glad , for the sake of old England , to be shewn my error ; in the mean time , let virtue be commended , though in the person of a strangerIf I thought it convenient , I could here discover some rules which I have given to myself in writing of an opera in general , and of this opera in particular ; but I consider , that the effect would only be , to have my own performance measured by the laws I gave ; and , consequently , to set up some little judges , who , not understanding thoroughly , would be sure to fall upon the faults , and not to acknowledge any of the beauties ; an hard measure , which I have often found from false critics . Here , therefore , if they will criticise , they shall do it out of their own fond ; but let them first be assured that their ears are nice ; for there is neither writing nor judgment on this subject without that good quality . It is no easy matter , in our language , to make words so smooth , and numbers so harmonious , that they shall almost set themselves . And yet there are rules for this in nature , and as great a certainty of quantity in our syllables , as either in the Greek or Latin : but let poets and judges understand those first , and then let them begin to study English . When they have chewed a while upon these preliminaries , it may be they will scarce adventure to tax me with want of thought and elevation of fancy in this work ; for they will soon be satisfied , that those are not of the nature of this sort of writing . The necessity of double rhimes , and ordering of the words and numbers for the sweetness of the voice , are the main hinges on which an opera must move ; and both of these are without the compass of any art to teach another to perform , unless nature , in the first place , has done her part , by enduing the poet with that nicety of hearing , that the discord of sounds in words shall as much offend him , as a seventh in music would a good composer . I have therefore no need to make excuses for meanness of thought in many places : the Italians , with all the advantages of their language , are continually forced upon it , or , rather , affect it . The chief secret is the choice of words ; and , by this choice , I do not here mean elegancy of expression , but propriety of sound , to be varied according to the nature of the subject . Perhaps a time may come when I may treat of this more largely , out of some observations which I have made from Homer and Virgil , who , amongst all the poets , only understood the art of numbers , and of that which was properly called rhythmus by the ancients . The same reasons , which depress thought in an opera , have a stronger effect upon the words , especially in our language ; for there is no maintaining the purity of English in short measures , where the rhime returns so quick , and is so often female , or double rhime , which is not natural to our tongue , because it consists too much of monosyllables , and those , too , most commonly clogged with consonants ; for which reason I am often forced to coin new words , revive some that are antiquated , and botch others ; as if I had not served out my time in poetry , but was bound apprentice to some doggrel rhimer , who makes songs to tunes , and sings them for a livelihood . It is true , I have not been often put to this drudgery ; but where I have , the words will sufficiently shew , that I was then a slave to the composition , which I will never be again : it is my part to invent , and the musician 's to humour that invention . I may be counselled , and will always follow my friend 's advice where I find it reasonable , but will never part with the power of the militiaI am now to acquaint my reader with somewhat more particular concerning this opera , after having begged his pardon for so long a preface to so short a work . It was originally intended only for a prologue to a play of the nature of \u201c The Tempest ; \u201d which is a tragedy mixed with opera , or a drama , written in blank verse , adorned with scenes , machines , songs , and dances , so that the fable of it is all spoken and acted by the best of the comedians ; the other part of the entertainment to be performed by the same singers and dancers who were introduced in this present opera . It cannot properly be called a play , because the action of it is supposed to be conducted sometimes by supernatural means , or magic ; nor an opera , because the story of it is not sung .\u2014 But more of this at its proper time .\u2014 But some intervening accidents having hitherto deferred the performance of the main design , I proposed to the actors , to turn the intended Prologue into an entertainment by itself , as you now see it , by adding two acts more to what I had already written . The subject of it is wholly allegorical ; and the allegory itself so very obvious , that it will no sooner be read than understood . It is divided , according to the plain and natural method of every action , into three parts . For even Aristotle himself is contented to say simply , that in all actions there is a beginning , a middle , and an end ; after which model all the Spanish plays are built . The descriptions of the scenes , and other decorations of the stage , I had from Mr Betterton , who has spared neither for industry , nor cost , to make this entertainment perfect , nor for invention of the ornaments to beautify it . To conclude , though the enemies of the composer are not few , and that there is a party formed against him of his own profession , I hope , and am persuaded , that this prejudice will turn in the end to his advantage . For the greatest part of an audience is always uninterested , though seldom knowing ; and if the music be well composed , and well performed , they , who find themselves pleased , will be so wise as not to be imposed upon , and fooled out of their satisfaction . The newness of the undertaking is all the hazard . When operas were first set up in France , they were not followed over eagerly ; but they gained daily upon their hearers , till they grew to that height of reputation , which they now enjoy . The English , I confess , are not altogether so musical as the French ; and yet they have been pleased already with \u201c The Tempest , \u201d and some pieces that followed , which were neither much better written , nor so well composed as this . If it finds encouragement , I dare promise myself to mend my hand , by making a more pleasing fable . In the mean time , every loyal Englishman cannot but be satisfied with the moral of this , which so plainly represents the double restoration of His Sacred Majesty . POSTSCRIPT . This preface being wholly written before the death of my late royal master ,I have now lately reviewed it , as supposing I should find many notions in it , that would require correction on cooler thoughts . After four months lying by me , I looked on it as no longer mine , because I had wholly forgotten it ; but I confess with some satisfaction , and perhaps a little vanity , that I found myself entertained by it ; my own judgment was new to me , and pleased me when I looked on it as another man 's . I see no opinion that I would retract or alter , unless it be , that possibly the Italians went not so far as Spain , for the invention of their operas . They might have it in their own country ; and that by gathering up the shipwrecks of the Athenian and Roman theatres , which we know were adorned with scenes , music , dances , and machines , especially the Grecian . But of this the learned Monsieur Vossius , who has made our nation his second country , is the best , and perhaps the only judge now living . As for the opera itself , it was all composed , and was just ready to have been performed , when he , in honour of whom it was principally made , was taken from us . He had been pleased twice or thrice to command , that it should be practised before him , especially the first and third acts of it ; and publicly declared more than once , that the composition and choruses were more just , and more beautiful , than any he had heard in England . How nice an ear he had in music , is sufficiently known ; his praise therefore has established the reputation of it above censure , and made it in a manner sacred . It is therefore humbly and religiously dedicated to his memory . It might reasonably have been expected that his death must have changed the whole fabric of the opera , or at least a great part of it . But the design of it originally was so happy , that it needed no alteration , properly so called ; for the addition of twenty or thirty lines in the apotheosis of Albion , has made it entirely of a piece , This was the only way which could have been invented , to save it from botched ending ; and it fell luckily into my imagination ; as if there were a kind of fatality even in the most trivial things concerning the succession : a change was made , and not for the worse , without the least confusion or disturbance ; and those very causes , which seemed to threaten us with troubles , conspired to produce our lasting happiness .

This definition occurs in the preface to the \u201c State of Innocence ; \u201d but although given by Dryden , and sanctioned by Pope , it has a very limited resemblance to that which is defined .

From the context it is plain , that he meant to include all poetical composition .\u2014 Spectator , No . 62 . The word once comprehended human knowledge in general .

He had much of the confidence , at least of the countenance of Charles , who was divided betwixt tenderness for Monmouth , and love of ease , on the one hand , and , on the other , desire of arbitrary power , and something like fear of the duke of York . Halifax repeatedly prevented each of these parties from subjugating the other , and his ambidexter services seem to have been rewarded by the sincere hatred of both . In 1688 was published a vindication of this party , entitled , \u201c the Character of a Trimmer ; \u201d and his opinion of ,\u2014 I . The laws of government . II . Protestant Religion . III .

THE VINDICATION : OR , THE PARALLEL OF THE FRENCH HOLY LEAGUE , AND THE ENGLISH LEAGUE AND COVENANT , TURNED INTO A SEDITIOUS LIBEL AGAINST THE KING AND HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS , BY THOMAS HUNT , AND THE AUTHORS OF THE REFLECTIONS UPON THE PRETENDED PARALLEL IN THE PLAY CALLED THE DUKE OF GUISE . Turno tempus erit magno cum optaverit emptum Intactum Pallanta : et cum spolia ista , diemque Oderit .\u2014 VINDICATION OF THE DUKE OF GUISE . It was easy to foresee , that a play , which professed to be a broadside discharged at the whole popular party , would not long remain uncensured . The satire being derived from a historical parallel of some delicacy , offered certain facilities of attack to the critics . It was only stretching the resemblance beyond the bounds to which Dryden had limited it , and the comparison became odious , if not dangerous . The whig writers did not neglect this obvious mode of attack , now rendered more popular by the encroachment lately attempted by the court upon the freedom of the city , whose magistrates had been exposed to ridicule in the play . Our readers cannot but remember , that , in order to break the spirit of the city of London , a writ of quo warranto was issued against the incorporation , by which was instituted a vexatious and captious inquiry into the validity of the charter of London . The purpose of this process was to compel the city to resign their freedom and immunities into the king 's hands , and to receive a new grant of them , so limited , as might be consistent with the views of the crown , or otherwise to declare them forfeited . One Thomas Hunt , a lawyer of some eminence , who had been solicitor for the Viscount Stafford when that unfortunate nobleman was tried for high treason , and had written upon the side of the tories , but had now altered his principles , stepped forward upon this occasion as the champion of the immunities of the city of LondonThe ludicrous light in which the sheriffs are placed , during the scene with Grillon in the third act , gave great offence to this active partizan ; and he gives vent to his displeasure in the following attack upon the author , and the performance . \u201c They have already condemned the charter and city , and have executed the magistrates in effigy upon the stage , in a play called \u201c The Duke of Guise , \u201d frequently acted and applauded ; intended most certainly , to provoke the rabble into tumults and disorder . The Roman priest had no success ,when he animated the people not to suffer the same sheriffs to be carried through the city to the Tower , prisoners . Now the poet hath undertaken , for their being kicked three or four times a-week about the stage to the gallows , infamously rogued and rascalled , to try what he can do towards making the charter forfeitable , by some extravagancy and disorder of the people , which the authority of the best governed cities have not been able to prevent , sometimes under far less provocations . \u201c But this ought not to move the citizens , when he hath so maliciously and mischievously represented the king , and the king 's son , nay , and his favourite the duke too , to whom he gives the worst strokes of his unlucky fancy . \u201c He puts the king under the person of Henry III . of France , who appeared in the head of the Parisian massacre ; the king 's son under the person of the Duke of Guise , who concerted it with the Queen-mother of France , and was slain in that very place , by the righteous judgment of God , where he and his mother had first contrived it . \u201c The Duke of Guise ought to have represented a great prince , that had inserved to some most detestable villany , to please the rage , or lust , of a tyrant . \u201c Such great courtiers have been often sacrificed , to appease the furies of the tyrant 's guilty conscience , to expiate for his sin , and to atone the people . \u201c Besides , that a tyrant naturally stands in fear of ministers of mighty wickedness ; he is always obnoxious to them , he is a slave to them , as long as they live they remember him of his guilt , and awe him . These wicked slaves become most imperious masters : they drag him to greater evils for their own impunity , than they first perpetrated for his pleasure , and their own ambition . \u201c But such are best given up to public justice , but by no means to be assassinated . Until this age , never before was an assassination invited , commended , and encouraged upon a public theatre . \u201c It is no wonder that Trimmersdisplease them ; for they seem to have designs for which it behoves them to know their men ; they must be perfectly wicked , or perfectly deceived ; of the Catiline make ; bold , and without understanding ; that can adhere to men that publicly profess murders , and applaud the design . \u201c Caius C\u00e6sarwas in the Catiline conspiracy ; and then the word was , he that is not for us is against us ; for the instruments of wickedness must be men that are resolute and forward , and without consideration ; or they will deceive the design , and relent when they enterprize . \u201c But when he was made dictator , and had some pretences , and a probability by means less wicked and mischievous to arrive at the government , his words were , he that is not against us is with us . But to Pompey only it belonged , and to his cause , or the like cause , to the defenders of ancient established governments , of the English monarchy and liberties , to say , they that are not with us are against us . In internecino bello , in attacks upon government , medii pro hostibus habentur , neutral men are traitors , and assist , by their indifferency , to the destruction of the government . As many as applaud this play , ought to be put under sureties of the peace ; and yet not one warrant , that we hear of yet , granted by the Lord Chief Justice . \u201c But it is not a Duke of Guise to be assassinated , a turbulent , wicked , and haughty courtier ; but an innocent and gentle prince , as well as brave , and renowned for noble achievements : a prince , that hath no fault , but that he is the king 's son ; and the best too of all his sons ; such a son , as would have made the best of emperors happy . \u201c Except it be , that the people honour him and love him , and every where publicly and loudly show it : But this they do , for that the best people of England have no other way left to show their loyalty to the king , and love to their religion and government , in long intervals of Parliament , than by prosecuting his son , for the sake of the king and his own merit , with all the demonstrations of the highest esteem . \u201c But he hath not used his patron Duke much better ; for he hath put him under a most dismal and unfortunate character of a successor , excluded from the crown by act of state for his religion , who fought his way to the crown , changed his religion , and died by the hand of a Roman assassinate . \u201c It is enough to make his great duke 's courage quail , to find himself under such an unlucky and disastrous representation , and thus personated ; besides , he hath offered a justification of an act of exclusion against a popish successor , in a Protestant kingdom , by remembering what was done against the king of Navarre . \u201c The Popish religion , in France , did , de facto , by act of state , exclude a Protestant prince , who is under no obligation , from his religion , to destroy his Popish subjects . \u201c Though a Popish prince is , to destroy his Protestant subjects . \u201c A Popish prince , to a Protestant kingdom , without more , must be the most insufferable tyrant , and exceed the character that any story can furnish for that sort of monster : And yet all the while to himself a religious and an applauded prince ; discharged from the tortures that ordinarily tear and rend the hearts of the most cruel princes , and make them as uneasy to themselves as they are to their subjects , and sometimes prevail so far as to lay some restraints upon their wicked minds . \u201c But this his patron will impute to his want of judgment ; for this poet 's heroes are commonly such monsters as Theseus and Hercules are , renowned throughout all ages for destroying . \u201c But to excuse him , this man hath forsaken his post , and entered upon another province . To \u201c The Observator \u201dit belongs to confound truth and falsehood ; and , by his false colours and impostures , to put out the eyes of the people , and leave them without understanding . \u201c But our poet hath not so much art left him as to frame any thing agreeable , or verisimilar , to amuse the people , or wherewith to deceive them . \u201c His province is to corrupt the manners of the nation , and lay waste their morals ; his understanding is clapt , and his brains are vitiated , and he is to rot the age . \u201c His endeavours are more happily applied , to extinguish the little remains of the virtue of the age by bold impieties , and befooling religion by impious and inept rhymes , to confound virtue and vice , good and evil , and leave us without consciences . \u201c And thus we are prepared for destruction . \u201c But to give the world a taste of his atheism and impiety , I shall recite two of his verses , as recited upon the stage , viz . For conscience , and heaven 's fear , religious rules , They are all state-bells to toll in pious fools ; which I have done the rather , that some honest judge , or justice , may direct a process against this bold impious man ; or some honest surrogate , or official , may find leisure to proceed , ex officio , against him , notwithstanding at present they are so encumbered with the dissenters . \u201c Such public blasphemies against religion , never were unpunished in any country , or age , but this . \u201c But I have made too long a digression , but that it carries with it some instructions towards the preserving of the honour of your august city , viz . \u201c That you do not hereafter authorise the stage to expose and revile your great officers , and offices , by the indignities yourselves do them ; whilst the Papists clap their hands , and triumph at your public disgraces , and in the hopes they conceive thereby of the ruin of your government , as if that were as sure and certain to them , as it is to us , without doubt , that they once fired it . \u201c And further , for that it was fit to set forth to the world , of what spirit our enemies are , how they intend to attack us ; as also , how bold they are with his majesty , what false and dishonourable representations they make of him , and present to the world upon a public theatre ; which , I must confess , hath moved me with some passion . \u201d This angry barrister was not the only adversary whom Dryden had to encounter on this occasion . Thomas Shadwell , a man of some talents for comedy , and who professed to tread in the footsteps of Ben Jonson , had for some time been at variance with Dryden and Otway . He was probably the author of a poem , entitled , \u201c A Lenten Prologue , refused by the Players ; \u201d which is marked by Mr Luttrel , 11th April , 1683 , and contains the following direct attack on \u201c The Duke of Guise , \u201d and the author : Our prologue wit grows flat ; the nap 's worn off , And howsoe'er we turn and trim the stuff , The gloss is gone that looked at first so gaudy ; \u2018 Tis now no jest to hear young girls talk bawdry . But plots and parties give new matters birth , And state distractions serve you here for mirth . At England 's cost poets now purchase fame ; While factious heats destroy us , without shame , These wanton Neroes fiddle to the flame ; The stage , like old rump-pulpits , is become The scene of news , a furious party 's drum : Here poets beat their brains for volunteers , And take fast hold of asses by their ears ; Their jingling rhimes for reason here you swallow , Like Orpheus \u2019 music , it makes beasts to follow . What an enlightening grace is want of bread ! How it can change a libeller 's heart , and clear a laureat 's head ; Open his eyes , till the mad prophet see Plots working in a future power to be !Traitors unformed to his second sight are clear . And squadrons here and squadrons there appear ; Rebellion is the burden of the seer . To Bayes , in vision , were of late revealed , Whig armies , that at Knightsbridge lay concealed ; And though no mortal eye could see't before , The battle just was entering at the door . A dangerous association , signed by none , The joiner 's plot to seize the king alone . Stephen with Collegemade this dire compact ; The watchful Irish took them in the fact . Of riding armed ; O traitorous overt act ! With each of them an ancient Pistol sided , Against the statute in that case provided . But , why was such a host of swearers pressed ? Their succour was ill husbandry at best . Bayes 's crowned muse , by sovereign right of satire , Without desert , can dub a man a traitor ; And tories , without troubling law or reason , By loyal instinct can find plots and treason . A more formal attack was made in a pamphlet , entitled , \u201c Some Reflections on the pretended parallel in the Play called the Duke of Guise . \u201d This Dryden , in the following Vindication , supposes to have been sketched by Shadwell , and finished by a gentleman of the TempleIn these Reflections , the obvious ground of attack , occupied by Hunt , is again resumed . The general indecency of a theatrical exhibition , which alluded to state-transactions of a grave and most important nature ; the indecorum of comparing the king to such a monarch as Henry III ., infamous for treachery , cruelty , and vices of the most profligate nature ; above all , the parallel betwixt the Dukes of Monmouth and Guise , by which the former is exhibited as a traitor to his father , and recommended as no improper object for assassination \u2014 are topics insisted on at some length , and with great vehemence . Our author was not insensible to these attacks , by which his loyalty to the king , and the decency of his conduct towards Monmouth , the king 's offending , but still beloved , son , and once Dryden 's own patron , stood painfully compromised . Accordingly , shortly after these pamphlets had appeared , the following advertisement was annexed to \u201c The Duke of Guise : \u201d \u201c There was a preface intended to this play in vindication of it , against two scurrilous libels lately printed ; but it was judged , that a defence of this nature would require more room than a preface reasonably could allow . For this cause , and for the importunities of the stationers , who hastened their impression , it is deferred for some little time , and will be printed by itself . Most men are already of opinion , that neither of the pamphlets deserve an answer , because they are stuffed with open falsities , and sometimes contradict each other ; but , for once , they shall have a day or two thrown away upon them , though I break an old custom for their sakes , which was ,\u2014 to scorn them . \u201d The resolution , thus announced , did not give universal satisfaction to our author 's friends ; one of whom published the following remonstrance , which contains some good sense , in very indifferent poetry : An Epode to his worthy Friend JOHN DRYDEN , to advise him not to answer two malicious Pamphlets against his Tragedy called \u201c The Duke of Guise . \u201dCan angry frowns rest on thy noble brow For trivial things ; Or , can a stream of muddy water flow From the Muses \u2019 springs ; Or great Apollo bend his vengeful bow \u2018 Gainst popular stings ? Desist thy passion then ; do not engage Thyself against the wittols of the age . Should we by stiff Tom Thimble 's faction fall , Lord , with what noise The Coffee throats would bellow , and the Ball O \u2019 the Change rejoice , And with the company of Pinner 's Hall Lift up their voice ! Once the head 's gone , the good cause is secure ; The members cannot long resist our power . Crop not their humours ; let the wits proceed Till they have thrown Their venom up ; and made themselves indeed Rare fops o'ergrown : Let them on nasty garbage prey and feed , Till all is done ; And , by thy great resentment , think it fit To crush their hopes , as humble as their wit . Consider the occasion , and you 'll find Yourself severe , And unto rashness much more here inclined , By far , than they 're : Consider them as in their proper kind , \u2018 Tween rage and fear , And then the reason will appear most plain ,\u2014 A worm that 's trod on will turn back again . What if they censure without brain or sense , \u2018 Tis now the fashion ; Each giddy fop endeavours to commence A reformation . Pardon them for their native ignorance , And brainsick passion ; For , after all , true men of sense will say ,\u2014 Their works can never parallel thy play . \u2018 Twere fond to pamper spleen , \u2018 cause owls detest The light of day ; Or real nonsense , which endures no test , Condemns thy play . Lodge not such petty trifles in thy breast , But bar their sway ; And let them know , that thy heroic bays Can scorn their censure , as it doth their praise . Think not thy answer will their nice reclaim , Whose heads are proof Against all reason , and in spite of shame Will stand aloof ; \u2018 Twould cherish further libels on thy fame , Should these thee move . Stand firm , my Dryden , maugre all their plots , Thy bays shall flourish when their ivy rots . But if you are resolved to break your use , And basely sin , In answer ; I 'll be sworn some haggard muse Has you in her gin ; Or in a fit you venture to abuse Your Polyhymn \u2019 , You may serve him so far : But if you do , All your true friends , sir , will reflect on you . The remonstrance of this friendly poet was unavailing ; Dryden having soon after published the following Vindication .

He was called to the bar , and esteemed a good lawyer .

He wrote , \u201c An Argument for the Bishops \u2019 right of judging in capital Cases in Parliament , & c .; \u201d for which he expectedno less than to be made lord chief baron of the exchequer in Ireland . But falling short of that honourable office , which he too ambitiously catched at , and considering the loss of another place , which he unjustly possessed , he soon after appeared one of the worst and most inveterate enemies to church and state that was in his time , and the most malicious , and withal the most ignorant , scribbler of the whole herd ; and was thereupon stiled , by a noted author ,Magni nominis umbra . Hunt also published , \u201c Great and weighty Considerations on the Duke of York , & c . \u201d in favour of the exclusion .

Whether it happened through a long disuse of writing , that I forgot the usual compass of a play , or that , by crowding it with characters and incidents , I put a necessity upon myself of lengthening the main action , I know not ; but the first day 's audience sufficiently convinced me of my error , and that the poem was insupportably too long . It is an ill ambition of us poets , to please an audience with more than they can bear ; and supposing that we wrote as well as vainly we imagine ourselves to write , yet we ought to consider , that no man can bear to be long tickled . There is a nauseousness in a city-feast , when we are to sit four hours after we are cloyed . I am therefore , in the first place , to acknowledge , with all manner of gratitude , their civility , who were pleased to endure it with so much patience ; to be weary with so much good-nature and silence ; and not to explode an entertainment which was designed to please them , or discourage an author , whose misfortunes have once more brought him , against his will , upon the stage . While I continue in these bad circumstances ,I must be obliged to write ; and if I may still hope for the same kind usage , I shall the less repent of that hard necessity . I write not this out of any expectation to be pitied , for I have enemies enow to wish me yet in a worse condition ; but give me leave to say , that if I can please by writing , as I shall endeavour it , the town may be somewhat obliged to my misfortunes for a part of their diversion . Having been longer acquainted with the stage than any poet now living , and having observed how difficult it was to please ; that the humours of comedy were almost spent ; that love and honourwere quite worn out ; that the theatres could not support their charges ; that the audience forsook them ; that young men , without learning , set up for judges , and that they talked loudest , who understood the least ; all these discouragements had not only weaned me from the stage , but had also given me a loathing of it . But enough of this : the difficulties continue ; they increase ; and I am still condemned to dig in those exhausted mines . Whatever fault I next commit , rest assured it shall not be that of too much length : Above twelve hundred lines have been cut off from this tragedy since it was first delivered to the actors . They were indeed so judiciously lopped by Mr Betterton , to whose care and excellent action I am equally obliged , that the connection of the story was not lost ; but , on the other side , it was impossible to prevent some part of the action from being precipitated , and coming on without that due preparation which is required to all great events : as , in particular , that of raising the mobile , in the beginning of the fourth act , which a man of Benducar 's cool character could not naturally attempt , without taking all those precautions , which he foresaw would be necessary to render his design successful . On this consideration , I have replaced those lines through the whole poem , and thereby restored it to that clearness of conception , andthat lustre and masculine vigour , in which it was first written . It is obvious to every understanding reader , that the most poetical parts , which are descriptions , images , similitudes , and moral sentences , are those which of necessity were to be pared away , when the body was swollen into too large a bulk for the representation of the stage . But there is a vast difference betwixt a public entertainment on the theatre , and a private reading in the closet : In the first , we are confined to time ; and though we talk not by the hour-glass , yet the watch often drawn out of the pocket warns the actors that their audience is weary ; in the last , every reader is judge of his own convenience ; he can take up the book and lay it down at his pleasure , and find out those beauties of propriety in thought and writing , which escaped him in the tumult and hurry of representing . And I dare boldly promise for this play , that in the roughness of the numbers and cadences ,you will see somewhat more masterly arising to your view , than in most , if not any , of my former tragedies . There is a more noble daring in the figures , and more suitable to the loftiness of the subject ; and , besides this , some newnesses of English , translated from the beauties of modern tongues , as well as from the elegancies of the Latin ; and here and there some old words are sprinkled , which , for their significance and sound , deserved not to be antiquated ; such as we often find in Sallust amongst the Roman authors , and in Milton 's \u201c Paradise \u201d amongst ours ; though perhaps the latter , instead of sprinkling , has dealt them with too free a hand , even sometimes to the obscuring of his sense . As for the story , or plot , of the tragedy , it is purely fiction ; for I take it up where the history has laid it down . We are assured by all writers of those times , that Sebastian , a young prince of great courage and expectation , undertook that war , partly upon a religious account , partly at the solicitation of Muley Mahomet , who had been driven out of his dominions by Abdelmelech , or , as others call him , Muley Moluch , his nigh kinsman , who descended from the same family of Xeriffs , whose fathers , Hamet and Mahomet , had conquered that empire with joint forces , and shared it betwixt them after their victory ; that the body of Don Sebastian was never found in the field of battle , which gave occasion for many to believe , that he was not slain; that some years after , when the Spaniards , with a pretended title , by force of arms , had usurped the crown of Portugal from the house of Braganza , a certain person , who called himself Don Sebastian , and had all the marks of his body and features of his face , appeared at Venice , where he was owned by some of his countrymen ; but being seized by the Spaniards , was first imprisoned , then sent to the gallies , and at last put to death in private . It is most certain , that the Portuguese expected his return for almost an age together after that battle , which is at least a proof of their extreme love to his memory ; and the usage they had from their new conquerors , might possibly make them so extravagant in their hopes and wishes for their old masterThis ground-work the history afforded me , and I desire no better to build a play upon ; for where the event of a great action is left doubtful , there the poet is left master . He may raise what he pleases on that foundation , provided he makes it of a piece , and according to the rule of probability . From hence I was only obliged , that Sebastian should return to Portugal no more ; but at the same time I had him at my own disposal , whether to bestow him in Afric , or in any other corner of the world , or to have closed the tragedy with his death ; and the last of these was certainly the most easy , but for the same reason the least artful ; because , as I have somewhere said , the poison and the dagger are still at hand to butcher a hero , when a poet wants the brains to save him . It being therefore only necessary , according to the laws of the drama , that Sebastian should no more be seen upon the throne , I leave it for the world to judge , whether or no I have disposed of him according to art , or have bungled up the conclusion of his adventure . In the drawing of his character , I forgot not piety , which any one may observe to be one principal ingredient of it , even so far as to be a habit in him ; though I shew him once to be transported from it by the violence of a sudden passion , to endeavour a self-murder . This being presupposed , that he was religious , the horror of his incest , though innocently committed , was the best reason which the stage could give for hindering his return . It is true , I have no right to blast his memory with such a crime ; but declaring it to be fiction , I desire my audience to think it no longer true , than while they are seeing it represented ; for that once ended , he may be a saint , for aught I know , and we have reason to presume he is . On this supposition , it was unreasonable to have killed him ; for the learned Mr Rymer has well observed , that in all punishments we are to regulate ourselves by poetical justice ; and according to those measures , an involuntary sin deserves not death ; from whence it follows , that to divorce himself from the beloved object , to retire into a desert , and deprive himself of a throne , was the utmost punishment which a poet could inflict , as it was also the utmost reparation which Sebastian could make . For what relates to Almeyda , her part is wholly fictitious . I know it is the surname of a noble family in Portugal , which was very instrumental in the restoration of Don John de Braganza , father to the most illustrious and most pious princess , our queen-dowager . The French author of a novel , called \u201c Don Sebastian , \u201d has given that name to an African lady of his own invention , and makes her sister to Muley Mahomet ; but I have wholly changed the accidents , and borrowed nothing but the supposition , that she was beloved by the king of Portugal . Though , if I had taken the whole story , and wrought it up into a play , I might have done it exactly according to the practice of almost all the ancients , who were never accused of being plagiaries for building their tragedies on known fables . Thus , Augustus C\u00e6sar wrote an \u201c Ajax , \u201d which was not the less his own , because Euripides had written a play before him on that subject . Thus , of late years , Corneille writ an \u201c OEdipus \u201d after Sophocles ; and I have designed one after him , which I wrote with Mr Lee ; yet neither the French poet stole from the Greek , nor we from the Frenchman . It is the contrivance , the new turn , and new characters , which alter the property , and make it ours . The materia poetica is as common to all writers , as the materia medica to all physicians . Thus , in our Chronicles , Daniel 's history is still his own , though Matthew Paris , Stow , and Hollingshed writ before him ; otherwise we must have been content with their dull relations , if a better pen had not been allowed to come after them , and writ his own account after a new and better manner . I must further declare freely , that I have not exactly kept to the three mechanic rules of unity . I knew them , and had them in my eye , but followed them only at a distance ; for the genius of the English cannot bear too regular a play : we are given to variety , even to a debauchery of pleasure . My scenes are therefore sometimes broken , because my underplot required them so to be , though the general scene remains ,\u2014 of the same castle ; and I have taken the time of two days , because the variety of accidents , which are here represented , could not naturally be supposed to arrive in one : but to gain a greater beauty , it is lawful for a poet to supersede a less . I must likewise own , that I have somewhat deviated from the known history , in the death of Muley Moluch , who , by all relations , died of a fever in the battle , before his army had wholly won the field ; but if I have allowed him another day of life , it was because I stood in need of so shining a character of brutality as I have given him ; which is indeed the same with that of the present emperor Muley-Ishmael , as some of our English officers , who have been in his court , have credibly informed me . I have been listening \u2014 what objections had been made against the conduct of the play ; but found them all so trivial , that if I should name them , a true critic would imagine that I played booty , and only raised up phantoms for myself to conquer . Some are pleased to say \u2014 the writing is dull ; but , \u00e6tatem habet , de se loquatur . Others , that the double poison is unnatural : let the common received opinion , and Ausonius his famous epigram , answer thatLastly , a more ignorant sort of creatures than either of the former maintain , that the character of Dorax is not only unnatural , but inconsistent with itself : let them read the play , and think again ; and if yet they are not satisfied , cast their eyes on that chapter of the wise Montaigne , which is intitled , De l'Inconstance des Actions humaines . A longer reply is what those cavillers deserve not ; but I will give them and their fellows to understand , that the earl of Dorset was pleased to read the tragedy twice over before it was acted , and did me the favour to send me word , that I had written beyond any of my former plays , and that he was displeased any thing should be cut away . If I have not reason to prefer his single judgment to a whole faction , let the world be judge ; for the opposition is the same with that of Lucan 's hero against an army ; concurrere bellum , atque virum . I think I may modestly conclude , that whatever errors there may be , either in the design , or writing of this play , they are not those which have been objected to it . I think also , that I am not yet arrived to the age of doting ; and that I have given so much application to this poem , that I could not probably let it run into many gross absurdities ; which may caution my enemies from too rash a censure , and may also encourage my friends , who are many more than I could reasonably have expected , to believe their kindness has not been very undeservedly bestowed on me . This is not a play that was huddled up in haste ; and , to shew it was not , I will own , that , besides the general moral of it , which is given in the four last lines , there is also another moral , couched under every one of the principal parts and characters , which a judicious critic will observe , though I point not to it in this preface . And there may be also some secret beauties in the decorum of parts , and uniformity of design , which my puny judges will not easily find out : let them consider in the last scene of the fourth act , whether I have not preserved the rule of decency , in giving all the advantage to the royal character , and in making Dorax first submit . Perhaps too they may have thought , that it was through indigence of characters that I have given the same to Sebastian and Almeyda , and consequently made them alike in all things but their sex . But let them look a little deeper into the matter , and they will find , that this identity of character in the greatness of their souls was intended for a preparation of the final discovery , and that the likeness of their nature was a fair hint to the proximity of their blood . To avoid the imputation of too much vanity ,I will give but one other instance , in relation to the uniformity of the design . I have observed , that the English will not bear a thorough tragedy ; but are pleased , that it should be lightened with underparts of mirth . It had been easy for me to have given my audience a better course of comedy , I mean a more diverting , than that of Antonio and Morayma ; but I dare appeal , even to my enemies , if I , or any man , could have invented one , which had been more of a piece , and more depending on the serious part of the design . For what could be more uniform , than to draw from out of the members of a captive court , the subject of a comical entertainment ? To prepare this episode , you see Dorax giving the character of Antonio , in the beginning of the play , upon his first sight of him at the lottery ; and to make the dependence , Antonio is engaged , in the fourth act , for the deliverance of Almeyda ; which is also prepared , by his being first made a slave to the captain of the rabble . I should beg pardon for these instances ; but perhaps they may be of use to future poets , in the conduct of their plays ; at least , if I appear too positive , I am growing old , and thereby in possession of some experience , which men in years will always assume for a right of talking . Certainly if a man can ever have reason to set a value on himself , it is when his ungenerous enemies are taking the advantage of the times upon him , to ruin him in his reputation . And therefore , for once , I will make bold to take the counsel of my old master Virgil , Tu ne cede mails , sed contr\u00e0 audentior ito . Footnotes : 1 . There was a Portuguese prophecy to this purpose , which they applied to the expected return of Sebastian : Vendra et Incubierto , Vendra cierto ; Entrera en el huerto , Per el puerto , Questa mas a ca del muro ; Y'lo que paresce escuro , Se vra claro e abierto .

His breath is in your hands I will presume , But I advise you to defer his doom , Till you have got a better in his room ; And do n't maliciously combine together , As if in spite and spleen you were come hither ; For he has kept the pen , tho \u2019 lost the featherAnd , on my honour , ladies , I avow , This play was writ in charity to you ; For such a dearth of wit who ever knew ? Sure \u2018 tis a judgment on this sinful nation , For the abuse of so great dispensation ; And , therefore , I resolve to change vocation . For want of petticoat , I 've put on buff , To try what may be got by lying rough : How think you , sirs ? is it not well enough ? Of bully-critics I a troop would lead ; But , one replied ,\u2014 Thank you , there 's no such need , I at Groom-Porter 's , sir , can safer bleed . Another , who the name of danger loaths , Vow 'd he would go , and swore me forty oaths , But that his horses were in body-clothes . A third cried ,\u2014 Damn my blood , I 'll be content To push my fortune , if the parliament Would but recal claret from banishment . A fourthmade this excuse \u2014 I 'd draw my sword in Ireland , sir , to chuse ; Had not their women gouty legs , and wore no shoes . Well , I may march , thought I , and fight , and trudge , But , of these blades , the devil a man will budge ; They there would fight , e'en just as here they judge . Here they will pay for leave to find a fault ; But , when their honour calls , they can n't be bought ; Honour in danger , blood , and wounds is sought . Lost virtue , whither fled ? or where 's thy dwelling Who can reveal ? at least , \u2018 tis past my telling , Unless thou art embarked for Inniskilling . On carrion-tits those sparks denounce their rage , In boot of wisp and Leinster frise engage ; What would you do in such an equipage? The siege of Derry does you gallants threaten ; Not out of errant shame of being beaten , As fear of wanting meat , or being eaten . Were wit like honour , to be won by fighting , How few just judges would there be of writing ! Then you would leave this villainous back-biting . Your talents lie how to express your spite ; But , where is he who knows to praise aright ? You praise like cowards , but like critics fight . Ladies , be wise , and wean these yearling calves , Who , in your service too , are meer faux braves ; They judge , and write , and fight , and love \u2014 by halves . Footnotes : 1 . The humour of this intended prologue turns upon the unwillingness displayed to attend King William into Ireland by many of the nobility and gentry , who had taken arms at the Revolution . The truth is , that , though invited to go as volunteers , they could not but consider themselves as hostages , of whom William did not chuse to lose sight , lest , while he was conquering Ireland , he might , perchance , lose England , by means of the very men by whom he had won it . The disbanding of the royal regiment had furnished a subject for the satirical wit of Buckingham , at least , such a piece is printed in his Miscellanies ; and for that of Shadwell , in his epilogue to Bury-fair . But Shadwell was now poet-laureat , and his satire was privileged , like the wit of the ancient royal jester . Our author was suspected of disaffection , and liable to misconstruction : For which reason , probably , he declined this sarcastic prologue , and substituted that which follows , the tone of which is submissive , and conciliatory towards the government . Contrary to custom , it was spoken by a woman .", "The Inniskilling horse , who behaved with great courage against King James , joined Schomberg and King William 's forces at Dundalk , in 1689 , rather resembled a foreign frey-corps , than regular troops . \u201c They were followed by multitudes of their women ; they were uncouth in their appearance ; they rode on small horses , called Garrons ; their pistols were not fixed in holsters , but dangled about their persons , being slung to their sword-belts ; they offered , with spirit , to make always the forlorn of the army ; but , upon the first order they received , they cried out , \u2018 They could thrive no longer , since they were now put under orders . \u2019 \u2014 Memoirs , Vol .

You have seen young ladies at the senate-door , Prefer petitions , and your grace implore ; However grave the legislators were , Their cause went ne'er the worse for being fair . Reasons as weak as theirs , perhaps , I bring ; But I could bribe you with as good a thing . I heard him make advances of good nature ; That he , for once , would sheath his cutting satire . Sign but his peace , he vows he 'll ne'er again The sacred names of fops and beaus profane . Strike up the bargain quickly ; for I swear , As times go now , he offers very fair . Be not too hard on him with statutes neither ; } Be kind ; and do not set your teeth together , } To stretch the laws , as coblers do their leather . } Horses by Papists are not to be ridden , But sure the muses \u2019 horse was ne'er forbidden ; For in no rate-book it was ever found That Pegasus was valued at five poundFine him to daily drudging and inditing : And let him pay his taxes out in writing .

See the beginning of the Preface . TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE PHILIP , EARL OF LEICESTER , & c .Far be it from me , my most noble lord , to think , that any thing which my meanness can produce , should be worthy to be offered to your patronage ; or that aught which I can say of you should recommend you farther to the esteem of good men in this present age , or to the veneration which will certainly be paid you by posterity . On the other side , I must acknowledge it a great presumption in me , to make you this address ; and so much the greater , because by the common suffrage even of contrary parties , you have been always regarded as one of the first persons of the age , and yet not one writer has dared to tell you so ; whether we have been all conscious to ourselves that it was a needless labour to give this notice to mankind , as all men are ashamed to tell stale news ; or that we were justly diffident of our own performances , as even Cicero is observed to be in awe when he writes to Atticus ; where , knowing himself over-matched in good sense , and truth of knowledge , he drops the gaudy train of words , and is no longer the vain-glorious orator . From whatever reason it may be , I am the first bold offender of this kind : I have broken down the fence , and ventured into the holy grove . How I may be punished for my profane attempt , I know not ; but I wish it may not be of ill omen to your lordship : and that a crowd of bad writers do not rush into the quiet of your recesses after me . Every man in all changes of government , which have been , or may possibly arrive , will agree , that I could not have offered my incense , where it could be so well deserved . For you , my lord , are secure in your own merit ; and all parties , as they rise uppermost , are sure to court you in their turns ; it is a tribute which has ever been paid your virtue . The leading men still bring their bullion to your mint , to receive the stamp of their intrinsic value , that they may afterwards hope to pass with human kind . They rise and fall in the variety of revolutions , and are sometimes great , and therefore wise in men 's opinions , who must court them for their interest . But the reputation of their parts most commonly follows their success ; few of them are wise , but as they are in power ; because indeed , they have no sphere of their own , but , like the moon in the Copernican system of the world , are whirled about by the motion of a greater planet . This it is to be ever busy ; neither to give rest to their fellow-creatures , nor , which is more wretchedly ridiculous , to themselves ; though , truly , the latter is a kind of justice , and giving mankind a due revenge , that they will not permit their own hearts to be at quiet , who disturb the repose of all beside them . Ambitious meteors ! how willing they are to set themselves upon the wing , and taking every occasion of drawing upward to the sun , not considering that they have no more time allowed them for their mounting , than the short revolution of a day ; and that when the light goes from them , they are of necessity to fall . How much happier is he ,who , centering on himself , remains immoveable , and smiles at the madness of the dance about him ? he possesses the midst , which is the portion of safety and content . He will not be higher , because he needs it not ; but by the prudence of that choice , he puts it out of fortune 's power to throw him down . It is confest , that if he had not so been born , he might have been too high for happiness ; but not endeavouring to ascend , he secures the native height of his station from envy , and cannot descend from what he is , because he depends not on another . What a glorious character was this once in Rome ! I should say , in Athens ; when , in the disturbances of a state as mad as ours , the wise Pomponius transported all the remaining wisdom and virtue of his country into the sanctuary of peace and learning . But I would ask the world ,whether there may not yet be found a character of a noble Englishman , equally shining with that illustrious Roman ? Whether I need to name a second Atticus ? or whether the world has not already prevented me , and fixed it there , without my naming ? Not a second , with a longo sed proximus intervallo ; not a young Marcellus , flattered by a poet into the resemblance of the first , with a frons l\u00e6ta parum , et dejecto lumina vultu , and the rest that follows , si qua fata aspera rumpas , tu Marcellus eris ; but a person of the same stamp and magnitude , who owes nothing to the former , besides the word Roman , and the superstition of reverence , devolving on him by the precedency of eighteen hundred years ; one who walks by him with equal paces , and shares the eyes of beholders with him ; one who had been first , had he first lived ; and , in spite of doating veneration , is still his equal : both of them born of noble families , in unhappy ages of change and tumult ; both of them retiring from affairs of state ; yet not leaving the commonwealth , till it had left itself ; but never returning to public business , when they had once quitted it , though courted by the heads of either party . But who would trust the quiet of their lives with the extravagancies of their countrymen , when they are just in the giddiness of their turning ; when the ground was tottering under them at every moment ; and none could guess whether the next heave of the earthquake would settle them on the first foundation , or swallow it ? Both of them knew mankind exactly well , for both of them began that study in themselves , and there they found the best part of human composition ; the worst they learned by long experience of the folly , ignorance , and immorality of most beside them . Their philosophy , on both sides , was not wholly speculative , for that is barren , and produces nothing but vain ideas of things which cannot possibly be known , or , if they could , yet would only terminate in the understanding ; but it was a noble , vigorous and practical philosophy , which exerted itself in all the offices of pity , to those who were unfortunate , and deserved not so to be . The friend was always more considered by them than the cause ; and an Octavius , or an Antony in distress , were relieved by them , as well as a Brutus or a Cassius ; for the lowermost party , to a noble mind , is ever the fittest object of good-will . The eldest of them , I will suppose , for his honour , to have been of the academic sect , neither dogmatist nor stoick ; if he were not , I am sure he ought , in common justice , to yield the precedency to his younger brother . For stiffness of opinion is the effect of pride , and not of philosophy ; it is a miserable presumption of that knowledge which human nature is too narrow to contain ; and the ruggedness of a stoick is only a silly affectation of being a god ,\u2014 to wind himself up by pullies to an insensibility of suffering , and , at the same time , to give the lie to his own experience , by saying he suffers not , what he knows he feels . True philosophy is certainly of a more pliant nature , and more accommodated to human use ; Homo sum , humani \u00e0 me nihil alienum puto . A wise man will never attempt an impossibility ; and such it is to strain himself beyond the nature of his being , either to become a deity , by being above suffering , or to debase himself into a stock or stone , by pretending not to feel it . To find in ourselves the weaknesses and imperfections of our wretched kind , is surely the most reasonable step we can make towards the compassion of our fellow-creatures . I could give examples of this kind in the second Atticus . In every turn of state , without meddling on either side , he has always been favourable and assisting to opprest merit . The praises which were given by a great poet to the late queen-mother , on her rebuilding Somerset Palace , one part of which was fronting to the mean houses on the other side of the water , are as justly his : For the distrest and the afflicted lie Most in his thoughts , and always in his eyeNeither has he so far forgotten a poor inhabitant of his suburbs , whose best prospect is on the garden of Leicester House , but that more than once he has been offering him his patronage , to reconcile him to a world , of which his misfortunes have made him wearyThere is another Sidney still remaining , though there can never be another Spenser to deserve the favour . But one Sidney gave his patronage to the applications of a poet ; the other offered it unasked . Thus , whether as a second Atticus , or a second Sir Philip Sidney , the latter in all respects will not have the worse of the comparison ; and if he will take up with the second place , the world will not so far flatter his modesty , as to seat him there , unless it be out of a deference of manners , that he may place himself where he pleases at his own table . I may therefore safely conclude , that he , who , by the consent of all men , bears so eminent a character , will out of his inborn nobleness forgive the presumption of this address . It is an unfinished picture , I confess , but the lines and features are so like , that it cannot be mistaken for any other ; and without writing any name under it , every beholder must cry out , at first sight ,\u2014 this was designed for Atticus ; but the bad artist has cast too much of him into shades . But I have this excuse , that even the greatest masters commonly fall short of the best faces . They may flatter an indifferent beauty ; but the excellencies of nature can have no right done to them ; for there both the pencil and pen are overcome by the dignity of the subject ; as our admirable Waller has expressed it , The heroe 's race transcends the poet 's thought . There are few in any age who can bear the load of a dedication ; for where praise is undeserved , it is satire ; though satire on folly is now no longer a scandal to any one person , where a whole age is dipt together . Yet I had rather undertake a multitude one way , than a single Atticus the other ; for it is easier to descend than it is to climb . I should have gone ashamed out of the world , if I had not at least attempted this address , which I have long thought owing : and if I had never attempted , I might have been vain enough to think I might have succeeded in it . Now I have made the experiment , and have failed through my unworthiness , I may rest satisfied , that either the adventure is not to be atchieved , or that it is reserved for some other hand . Be pleased , therefore , since the family of the Attici is and ought to be above the common forms of concluding letters , that I may take my leave in the words of Cicero to the first of them : Me , O Pomponi , vald\u00e8 p\u00e6nitet vivere : tant\u00f9m te oro , ut quoniam me ipse semper am\u00e0sti , ut eodem amore sis ; ego nimirum idem sum . Inimici mei mea mihi non meipsum ademerunt . Cura , Attice , ut valeas .", "The Chacon is supposed by Sir John Hawkins to be of Moorish or Saracenic origin . \u201c The characteristic of the Chacone is a bass , or ground , consisting of four measures , wherein three crotchets make the bar , and the repetition thereof with variations in the several parts , from the beginning to the end of the air , which in respect of its length , has no limit but the discretion of the composer . The whole of the twelfth sonata of the second opera of Corelli is a Chacone . \u201d Hist . of Music , vol . iv . p. 388 .

In the preface to \u201c The Humourists , \u201d acted , according to Mr Malone , in 1676 , Shadwell thus mentions his great contemporary : \u201c And here I must make a little digression , and take liberty to dissent from my particular friend , for whom I have a very great respect , and whose writings I extremely admire ; and , though I will not say , his is the best way of writing , yet , I am sure his manner of writing is much the best that ever was . And I may say of him , as was said of a celebrated poet , Cui unquam poetarum magis proprium fuit subito astro incalescere ? Quis ubi incaluit , fortius et f\u00e6clicius debacchatur ? His verse is smoother and deeper , his thoughts more quick and surprising , his raptures more mettled and higher , and he has more of that in his writings , which Plato calls s\u00f4phrona manian than any other heroic poet . And those who shall go about to imitate him , will be found to flutter and make a noise , but never to rise . \u201d Such a compliment , from a rival dramatist , could only have been extracted by previous good offices and kindly countenance . Accordingly we find , that Dryden , in 1678-9 , wrote a prologue to Shadwell 's play , of \u201c The True Widow . \u201d", "Alluding to the fate of Stephen College , the Protestant joiner ; a meddling , pragmatical fellow , who put himself so far forward in the disputes at Oxford , as to draw down the vengeance of the court . He was very harshly treated during his trial ; and though in the toils , and deprived of all assistance , defended himself with right English manliness . He was charged with the ballad on page 6. and with coming to Oxford armed to attack the guards . He said he did not deny he had pistols in his holsters at Oxford ; to which Jefferies answered , indecently , but not unaptly , he \u201c thought a chissel might have been more proper for a joiner . \u201d Poor College was executed ; a vengeance unworthy of the king , who might have apostrophised him as Hamlet does Polonius : Thou wretched , rash , intruding fool , farewell ; I took thee for thy betters \u2014 take thy fortune . Thou findst , to be too busy is some danger .", "In the year 1565 , an interview took place at Bayonne between Catharine of Medicis , her son Charles IX ., and the Queen of Spain , attended by the famous Duke of Alva , and the Count of Benevento . Many political discussions took place ; and the opinion of Alva , as expressed in the text , is almost literally versified from Davila 's account of the conference . \u201c Il Duca D'Alva , uomo di veemente natura risolutamente diceva , che per distruggere la novit\u00e0 della fede , e le sollevazioni di stato , bisognava levare le teste de \u2019 papaveri , pescare i pesci grossi e non si curare di prendere le ranocchie : erano questi i concetti proferiti da lui ; perch\u00e8 cessati i venti , l'onde della plebe facilmente si sarebbono da se stesse composte e acquietate : aggiugneva , che un prencipe non pu\u00f2 far cosa pi\u00f9 vituperosa n\u00e8 pi\u00f9 dannosa a se stesso , quanto il permettere al popolo il vivere secondo la loro coscienza , ponendo tanta variet\u00e0 di religioni in uno stato , quanto sono i capricci degli huomini e le fantas\u00ede delle persone inquiete , aprendo la porta alla discordia e alla confusione : e dimostrava con lunga commemorazione di segnalati esempj , che la diversit\u00e0 della fede aveva sempre messo l'arme in mano ai sudditi , e sempre sollevate atroci perfidie e funeste rebellioni contra i superiori : onde conchiudeva nel fine , che siccome le controversie della fede avevan sempre servito di pretesto e di argumento alle sollevazioni de \u2019 mal contenti , cos\u00ec era necessario rimovere a primo tratto questa coperta , e poi con severi rimedj , e senza riguardo di ferro , n\u00e8 di fuoco , purgare le radici di quel male , il quale colla dolcezza e con la sofferenza perniciosamente germogliando si dilatava sempre , e si accresceva . \u201d \u2014 Delle Guerre Civili di Francia , lib . iii ."], "play_index": 28, "act_index": 28}, {"query": ["Alluding to the disputes betwixt the King and Parliament , on the important point of the command of the militia . ] PROLOGUE Full twenty years , and more , our labouring stage Has lost , on this incorrigible age : Our poets , the John Ketches of the nation , Have seemed to lash ye , even to excoriation ; But still no sign remains ; which plainly notes , You bore like heroes , or you bribed like Oates .\u2014 What can we do , when mimicking a fop , Like beating nut-trees , makes a larger crop ? \u2018 Faith , we 'll e'en spare our pains ! and , to content you , Will fairly leave you what your Maker meant you .

The curtain rises , and a new frontispiece is seen , joined to the great pilasters , which are seen on each side of the stage : on the flat of each basis is a shield , adorned with gold ; in the middle of the shield , on one side , are two hearts , a small scroll of gold over them , and an imperial crown over the scroll ; on the other hand , in the shield , are two quivers full of arrows saltyre , & c .; upon each basis stands a figure bigger than the life ; one represents Peace , with a palm in one , and an olive branch in the other hand ; the other Plenty , holding a cornucopia , and resting on a pillar . Behind these figures are large columns of the Corinthian order , adorned with fruit and flowers : over one of the figures on the trees is the king 's cypher ; over the other , the queen 's : over the capitals , on the cornice , sits a figure on each side ; one represents Poetry , crowned with laurel , holding a scroll in one hand , the other with a pen in it , and resting on a book ; the other , Painting , with a pallet and pencils , & c .: on the sweep of the arch lies one of the Muses , playing on a bass-viol ; another of the Muses , on the other side , holding a trumpet in one hand , and the other on a harp . Between these figures , in the middle of the sweep of the arch , is a very large pannel in a frame of gold ; in this pannel is painted , on one side , a Woman , representing the city of London , leaning her head on her hand in a dejected posture , showing her sorrow and penitence for her offences ; the other hand holds the arms of the city , and a mace lying under it : on the other side is a figure of the Thames , with his legs shackled , and leaning on an empty urn : behind these are two imperial figures ; one representing his present majesty ; and the other the queen : by the king stands Pallas ,holding a charter for the city , the king extending his hand , as raising her drooping head , and restoring her to her ancient honour and glory : over the city are the envious devouring Harpies flying from the face of his majesty : By the queen stand the Three Graces , holding garlands of flowers , and at her feet Cupids bound , with their bows and arrows broken , the queen pointing with her sceptre to the river , and commanding the Graces to take off their fetters . Over the king , in a scroll , is this verse of Virgil , Discite justitiam , moniti , et non temnere divos . Over the queen , this of the same author , Non ignara mali , miscris succurrere disco . ALBION AND ALBANIUS . AN OPERA . DECORATIONS OF THE STAGE IN THE FIRST ACT . The Curtain rises , and there appears on either side of the Stage , next to the Frontispiece , a Statue on Horseback of Gold , on Pedestals of Marble , enriched with Gold , and bearing the Imperial Arms of England . One of these Statues is taken from that of the late King at Charing-cross ; the other from that figure of his present Majestyat Windsor . The Scene is a Street of Palaces , which lead to the Front of the Royal-Exchange ; the great Arch is open , and the view is continued through the open part of the Exchange , to the Arch on the other side , and thence to as much of the Street beyond , as could possibly be taken .

MERCURY Descends .", "Anthony Wood is followed by Mr Malone in supposing , that Hunt himself is the Templar alluded to . But Dryden seems obviously to talk of the author of the Defence , and the two Reflectors , as three separate persons . He calls them , \u201c the sputtering triumvirate , Mr Hunt , and the two Reflectors ; \u201d and again , \u201c What says my lord chief baronto the business ? What says the livery-man Templar ? What says Og , the king of Basanto it ? \u201d The Templar may be discovered , when we learn , who hired a livery-gown to give a vote among the electors . THE VINDICATION OF THE DUKE OF GUISE . In the year of his majesty 's happy Restoration , the first play I undertook was the \u201c Duke of Guise ; \u201d as the fairest way , which the Act of Indemnity had then left us , of setting forth the rise of the late rebellion ; and by exploding the villainies of it upon the stage , to precaution posterity against the like errors . As this was my first essay , so it met with the fortune of an unfinished piece ; that is to say , it was damned in private , by the advice of some friends to whom I shewed it ; who freely told me , that it was an excellent subject ; but not so artificially wrought , as they could have wished ; and now let my enemies make their best of this confession . The scene of the Duke of Guise 's return to Paris , against the king 's positive command , was then written . I have the copy of it still by me , almost the same which it now remains , being taken verbatim out of Davila ; for where the action is remarkable , and the very words related , the poet is not at liberty to change them much ; and if he will be adding any thing for ornament , it ought to be wholly of a piece . This do I take for a sufficient justification of that scene , unless they will make the pretended parallel to be a prophecy , as well as a parallel of accidents , that were twenty years after to come .Neither do I find , that they can suggest the least colour for it in any other part of the tragedy . But now comes the main objection ,\u2014 why was it stopt then ? To which I shall render this just account , with all due respects to those who were the occasion of it . Upon a wandering rumourthat some great persons were represented , or personated in it , the matter was complained of to my Lord Chamberlain ; who , thereupon , appointed the play to be brought to him , and prohibited the acting of it until further order ; commanding me , after this , to wait upon his lordship ; which I did , and humbly desired him to compare the play with the history , from whence the subject was taken , referring to the first scene of the fourth act , whereupon the exception was grounded , and leaving Davilawith his lordship . This was before midsummer ; and about two months after , I received the play back again from his lordship , but without any positive order whether it should be acted or not ; neither was Mr Lee , or myself , any way solicitous about it . But this indeed I ever said , that it was intended for the king 's service ; and his majesty was the best judge , whether it answered that end or no ; and that I reckoned it my duty to submit , if his majesty , for any reason whatsoever , should deem it unfit for the stage . In the interim , a strict scrutiny was made , and no parallel of the great person designed , could be made out . But this push failing , there were immediately started some terrible insinuations , that the person of his majesty was represented under that of Henry the Third ; which if they could have found out , would have concluded , perchance , not only in the stopping of the play , but in the hanging up of the poets . But so it was , that his majesty 's wisdom and justice acquitted both the one , and the other ; and when the play itself was almost forgotten , there were orders given for the acting of it . This is matter of fact ; and I have the honour of so great witnesses to the truth of what I have delivered , that it will need no other appeal . As to the exposing of any person living , our innocency is so clear , that it is almost unnecessary to say , it was not in my thought ; and , as far as any one man can vouch for another , I do believe it was as little in Mr Lee 's . And now since some people have been so busy as to cast out false and scandalous surmises , how far we two agreed upon the writing of it , I must do a common right both to Mr Lee and myself , to declare publicly , that it was at his earnest desire , without any solicitation of mine , that this play was produced betwixt us . After the writing of OEdipus , I passed a promise to join with him in another ; and he happened to claim the performance of that promise , just upon the finishing of a poem ,when I would have been glad of a little respite before the undertaking of a second task . The person , that passed betwixt us , knows this to be true ; and Mr Lee himself , I am sure , will not disown it ; So that I did not \u201c seduce him to join with me , \u201d as the malicious authors of the Reflections are pleased to call it ; but Mr Lee 's loyalty is above so ridiculous a slander . I know very well , that the town did ignorantly call and take this to be my play ; but I shall not arrogate to myself the merits of my friend . Two-thirds of it belonged to him ; and to me only the first scene of the play ; the whole fourth act , and the first half , or somewhat more , of the fifth . The pamphleteers , I know , do very boldly insinuate , that , \u201c before the acting of it , I took the whole play to myself ; but finding afterwards how ill success it had upon the stage , I threw as much of it as possibly I could upon my fellow . \u201d Now here are three damned lies crowded together into a very little room ; first , that I assumed any part of it to myself , which I had not written ; wherein I appeal , not only to my particular acquaintance , but to the whole company of actors , who will witness for me , that , in all the rehearsals , I never pretended to any one scene of Mr Lee 's , but did him all imaginable right , in his title to the greater part of it . I hope I may , without vanity , affirm to the world , that I never stood in need of borrowing another man 's reputation ; and I have been as little guilty of the injustice , of laying claim to any thing which was not my own . Nay , I durst almost refer myself to some of the angry poets on the other side , whether I have not rather countenanced and assisted their beginnings , than hindered them from rising .The two other falsities are , the \u201c ill success of the play , \u201d and \u201c my disowning it . \u201d The former is manifestly without foundation ; for it succeeded beyond my very hopes , having been frequently acted , and never without a considerable audience ; and then it is a thousand to one , that , having no ground to disown it , I did not disown it ; but the universe to a nutshell that I did not disown it for want of success , when it succeeded so much beyond my expectation . But my malignant adversaries are the more excusable for this coarse method of breaking in upon truth and good manners , because it is the only way they have to gratify the genius and the interest of the faction together ; and never so much pains taken neither , to so very , very little purpose . They decry the play , but in such a manner , that it has the effect of a recommendation . They call it \u201c a dull entertainment ; \u201d and that is a dangerous word , I must confess , from one of the greatest masters in human nature , of that faculty . Now I can forgive them this reproach too , after all the rest ; for this play does openly discover the original and root of the practices and principles , both of their party and cause ; and they are so well acquainted with all the trains and mazes of rebellion , that there is nothing new to them in the whole history . Or what if it were a little insipid , there was no conjuring that I remember in \u201c Pope Joan ; \u201d and the \u201c Lancashire Witches \u201d were without doubt the most insipid jades that ever flew upon a stage ; and even these , by the favour of a party , made a shift to hold up their heads .Now , if we have out-done these plays in their own dull way , their authors have some sort of privilege to throw the first stone ; but we shall rather chuse to yield the point of dulness , than contend for it , against so indisputable a claim . But \u201c matters of stateare canvassed on the stage , and things of the gravest concernment there managed ; \u201d and who were the aggressors , I beseech you , but a few factious , popular hirelings , that by tampering the theatres , and by poisoning the people , made a play-house more seditious than a conventicle ; so that the loyal party crave only the same freedom of defending the government , which the other took beforehand of exposing and defaming it . There was no complaint of any disorders of the stage , in the bustle that was madeto uphold a farce of theirs .Upon the first day , the whole factionappeared ; but after one sight of it , they sent their proxies of serving-men and porters , to clap in the right of their patrons ; and it was impossible ever to have gotten off the nonsense of three hours for half-a-crown , but for the providence of so congruous an audience . Thus far , I presume , the reckoning is even , for bad plays on both sides , and for plays written for a party . I shall say nothing of their poets \u2019 affection to the government ; unless upon an absolute and an odious necessity . But to return to the pretended Parallel . I have said enough already to convince any man of common sense , that there neither was , nor could be , any Parallel intended ; and it will farther appear , from the nature of the subject ; there being no relation betwixt Henry the Third and the Duke of Guise , except that of the king 's marrying into the family of Lorraine . If a comparison had been designed , how easy had it been either to have found a story , or to have invented one , where the ties of nature had been nearer ? If we consider their actions , or their persons , a much less proportion will be yet found betwixt them ; and if we bate the popularity , perhaps none at all . If we consider them in reference to their parties , the one was manifestly the leader ; the other , at the worst , is but misled . The designs of the one tended openly to usurpation ; those of the other may yet be interpreted more fairly ; and I hope , from the natural candour and probity of his temper , that it will come to a perfect submission and reconcilement at last . But that which perfectly destroys this pretended Parallel is , that our picture of the Duke of Guise is exactly according to the original in the history ; his actions , his manners , nay , sometimes his very words , are so justly copied , that whoever has read him in Davila , sees him the same here . There is no going out of the way , no dash of a pen to make any by-feature resemble him to any other man ; and indeed , excepting his ambition , there was not in France , or perhaps in any other country , any man of his age vain enough to hope he could be mistaken for him .So that if you would have made a Parallel , we could not . And yet I fancy , that where I make it my business to draw likeness , it will be no hard matter to judge who sate for the picture . For the Duke of Guise 's return to Paris contrary to the king 's order , enough already has been said ; it was too considerable in the story to be omitted , because it occasioned the mischiefs that ensued . But in this likeness , which was only casual , no danger followed . I am confident there was none intended ; and am satisfied that none was feared . But the argument drawn from our evident design is yet , if possible , more convincing . The first words of the prologue spake the play to be a Parallel , and then you are immediately informed how far that Parallel extended , and of what it is so : \u201c The Holy League begot the Covenant , Guisards got the Whig , & c . \u201d So then it is not ,a Parallel of the men , but of the times ; a Parallel of the factions , and of the leaguers . And every one knows that this prologue was written before the stopping of the play . Neither was the name altered on any such account as they insinuate , but laid aside long before , because a book called the Parallel had been printed , resembling the French League to the English Covenant ; and therefore we thought it not convenient to make use of another man 's title .The chief person in the tragedy , or he whose disasters are the subject of it , may in reason give the name ; and so it was called the \u201c Duke of Guise . \u201d Our intention therefore was to make the play a Parallel betwixt the Holy League , plotted by the house of Guise and its adherents , with the Covenant plotted by the rebels in the time of king Charles I. and those of the new Association , which was the spawn of the old Covenant . But this parallel is plain , that the exclusion of the lawful heir was the main design of both parties ; and that the endeavours to get the lieutenancy of France established on the head of the League , is in effect the same with offering to get the militia out of the king 's handand consequently , that the power of peace and war should be wholly in the people . It is also true that the tumults in the city , in the choice of their officers , have had no small resemblance with a Parisian rabble : and I am afraid that both their faction and ours had the same good lord . I believe also , that if Julian had been written and calculated for the Parisians , as it was for our sectaries , one of their sheriffs might have mistaken too , and called him Julian the Apostle .I suppose I need not push this point any further ; where the parallel was intended , I am certain it will reach ; but a larger account of the proceedings in the city may be expected from a better hand , and I have no reason to forestall it .In the mean time , because there has been no actual rebellion , the faction triumph in their loyalty ; which if it were out of principle , all our divisions would soon be ended , and we the happy people , which God and the constitution of our government have put us in condition to be ; but so long as they take it for a maxim , that the king is but an officer in trust , that the people , or their representatives , are superior to him , judges of miscarriages , and have power of revocation , it is a plain case , that whenever they please they may take up arms ; and , according to their doctrine , lawfully too . Let them jointly renounce this one opinion , as in conscience and law they are bound to do , because both scripture and acts of parliament oblige them to it , and we will then thank their obedience for our quiet , whereas now we are only beholden to them for their fear . The miseries of the last war are yet too fresh in all men 's memory ; and they are not rebels , only because they have been so too lately . An author of theirs has told us roundly the west-country proverb ; Chud eat more cheese , and chad it ; their stomach is as good as ever it was ; but the mischief o n't is , they are either muzzled , or want their teeth . If there were as many fanatics now in England , as there were christians in the empire , when Julian reigned , I doubt we should not find them much inclined to passive obedience ; and , \u201c Curse ye Meroz \u201dwould be oftener preached upon , than \u201c Give to C\u00e6sar , \u201d except in the sense Mr Hunt means it . Having clearly shewn wherein the parallel consisted , which no man can mistake , who does not wilfully , I need not justify myself , in what concerns the sacred person of his majesty . Neither the French history , nor our own , could have supplied me , nor Plutarch himself , were he now alive , could have found a Greek or Roman to have compared to him , in that eminent virtue of his clemency ; even his enemies must acknowledge it to be superlative , because they live by it . Far be it from flattery , if I say , that there is nothing under heaven , which can furnish me with a parallel ; and that , in his mercy , he is of all men the truest image of his Maker .", "For , interpreter ; more usually spelled dragoman ."], "true_target": ["The popular arts of the Duke of Monmouth are here alluded to , which his fine person and courteous manners rendered so eminently , and for himself so unfortunately , successful .

So great a trust to him alone was due ; Well have they trusted whom so well they knew .

DON SEBASTIAN . A TRAGEDY . \u2014 Nec tarda senectus Debilitat vires animi , mutatque vigorem . VIRG . DON SEBASTIAN . The following tragedy is founded upon the adventures supposed to have befallen Sebastian , king of Portugal , after the fatal battle of Alcazar . The reader may be briefly reminded of the memorable expedition of that gallant monarch to Africa , to signalize , against the Moors , his chivalry as a warrior , and his faith as a Christian . The ostensible pretext of invasion was the cause of Muly Mahomet , son of Abdalla , emperor of Morocco ; upon whose death , his brother , Muly Moluch , had seized the crown , and driven his nephew into exile . The armies joined battle near Alcazar . The Portuguese , far inferior in number to the Moors , displayed the most desperate valour , and had nearly won the day , when Muly Moluch , who , though almost dying , was present on the field in a litter , fired with shame and indignation , threw himself on horseback , rallied his troops , renewed the combat , and , being carried back to his litter , immediately expired , with his finger placed on his lips , to impress on the chiefs , who surrounded him , the necessity of concealing his death . The Moors , rallied by their sovereign 's dying exertion , surrounded , and totally routed , the army of Sebastian . Mahomet , the competitor for the throne of Morocco , was drowned in passing a river in his flight , and Sebastian , as his body was never found , probably perished in the same manner . But where the region of historical certainty ends , that of romantic tradition commences . The Portuguese , to whom the memory of their warlike sovereign was deservedly dear , grasped at the feeble hope which the uncertainty of his fate afforded , and long , with vain fondness , expected the return of Sebastian , to free them from the yoke of Spain . This mysterious termination of a hero 's career , as it gave rise to various political intrigues ,early afforded a subject for exercising the fancy of the dramatist and romance writer . \u201c The Battle of Alcazar\" is known to the collectors of old plays ; a ballad on the same subject is reprinted in Evans 's collection ; and our author mentions a French novel on the adventures of Don Sebastian , to which Langbaine also refers . The situation of Dryden , after the Revolution , was so delicate as to require great caution and attention , both in his choice of a subject , and his mode of treating it . His distressed circumstances and lessened income compelled him to come before the public as an author ; while the odium attached to the proselyte of a hated religion , and the partizan of a depressed faction , was likely , upon the slightest pretext , to transfer itself from the person of the poet to the labours on which his support depended . He was , therefore , not only obliged to chuse a theme , which had no offence in it , and to treat it in a manner which could not admit of misconstruction , but also so to exert the full force of his talents , as , by the conspicuous pre-eminence of his genius , to bribe prejudice and silence calumny . An observing reader will accordingly discover , throughout the following tragedy , symptoms of minute finishing , and marks of accurate attention , which , in our author 's better days , he deigned not to bestow upon productions , to which his name alone was then sufficient to give weight and privilege . His choice of a subject was singularly happy : the name of Sebastian awaked historical recollections and associations , favourable to the character of his hero ; while the dark uncertainty of his fate removed all possibility of shocking the audience by glaring offence against the majesty of historical truth . The subject has , therefore , all the advantages of a historical play , without the detects , which either a rigid coincidence with history , or a violent contradiction of known truth , seldom fail to bring along with them . Dryden appears from his preface to have been fully sensible of this ; and he has not lost the advantage of a happy subject by treating it with the carelessness he sometimes allowed himself to indulge . The characters in \u201c Don Sebastian \u201d are contrasted with singular ability and judgment . Sebastian , high-spirited and fiery ; the soul of royal and military honour ; the soldier and the king ; almost embodies the idea which the reader forms at the first mention of his name . Dorax , to whom he is so admirable a contrast , is one of those characters whom the strong hand of adversity has wrested from their natural bias ; and perhaps no equally vivid picture can be found , of a subject so awfully interesting . Born with a strong tendency to all that was honourable and virtuous , the very excess of his virtues became vice , when his own ill fate , and Sebastian 's injustice , had driven him into exile . By comparing , as Dryden has requested , the character of Dorax , in the fifth act , with that he maintains in the former part of the play , the difference may be traced betwixt his natural virtues , and the vices engrafted on them by headlong passion and embittering calamity . There is no inconsistence in the change which takes place after his scene with Sebastian ; as was objected by those , whom the poet justly terms , \u201c the more ignorant sort of creatures . \u201d It is the same picture in a new light ; the same ocean in tempest and in calm ; the same traveller , whom sunshine has induced to abandon his cloak , which the storm only forced him to wrap more closely around him . The principal failing of Dorax is the excess of pride , which renders each supposed wound to his honour more venomously acute ; yet he is not devoid of gentler affections , though even in indulging these the hardness of his character is conspicuous . He loves Violante , but that is a far subordinate feeling to his affection for Sebastian . Indeed , his love appears so inferior to his loyal devotion to his king , that , unless to gratify the taste of the age , I see little reason for its being introduced at all . It is obvious he was much more jealous of the regard of his sovereign , than of his mistress ; he never mentions Violante till the scene of explanation with Sebastian ; and he appears hardly to have retained a more painful recollection of his disappointment in that particular , than of the general neglect and disgrace he had sustained at the court of Lisbon . The last stage of a virtuous heart , corroded into evil by wounded pride , has been never more forcibly displayed than in the character of Dorax . When once induced to take the fatal step which degraded him in his own eyes , all his good affections seem to be converted into poison . The religion , which displays itself in the fifth act in his arguments against suicide , had , in his efforts to justify his apostacy , or at least to render it a matter of no moment , been exchanged for sentiments approaching , perhaps to atheism , certainly to total scepticism . His passion for Violante is changed into contempt and hatred for her sex , which he expresses in the coarsest terms . His feelings of generosity , and even of humanity , are drowned in the gloomy and stern misanthropy , which has its source in the self-discontent that endeavours to wreak itself upon others . This may be illustrated by his unfeeling behaviour , while Alvarez and Antonio , well known to him in former days , approach , and draw the deadly lot , which ratifies their fate . No yielding of compassion , no recollection of former friendship , has power to alter the cold and sardonic sarcasm with which he sketches their characters , and marks their deportment in that awful moment . Finally , the zealous attachment of Alonzo for his king , which , in its original expression , partakes of absolute devotion , is changed , by the circumstances of Dorax , into an irritated and frantic jealousy , which he mistakes for hatred ; and which , in pursuing the destruction of its object , is almost more inveterate than hatred itself . Nothing has survived of the original Alonzo at the opening of the piece , except the gigantic passion which has caused his ruin . This character is drawn on a large scale , and in a heroic proportion ; but it is so true to nature , that many readers must have lamented , even within the circle of domestic acquaintance , instances of feelings hardened , and virtues perverted , where a high spirit has sustained severe and unjust neglect and disgrace . The whole demeanour of this exquisite character suits the original sketch . From \u201c the long stride and sullen port , \u201d by which Benducar distinguishes him at a distance , to the sullen stubbornness with which he obeys , or the haughty contempt with which he resists , the commands of the peremptory tyrant under whom he had taken service , all announce the untamed pride which had robbed Dorax of virtue , and which yet , when Benducar would seduce him into a conspiracy , and in his conduct towards Sebastian , assumes the port and dignity of virtue herself . In all his conduct and bearing , there is that mixed feeling and impulse , which constitutes the real spring of human action . The true motive of Alonzo in saving Sebastian , is not purely that of honourable hatred , which he proposes to himself ; for to himself every man endeavours to appear consistent , and readily find arguments to prove to himself that he is so . Neither is his conduct to be ascribed altogether to the gentler feelings of loyal and friendly affection , relenting at the sight of his sovereign 's ruin , and impending death . It is the result of a mixture of these opposite sensations , clashing against each other like two rivers at their conflux , yet urging their united course down the same channel . Actuated by a mixture of these feelings , Dorax meets Sebastian ; and the art of the poet is displayed in that admirable scene , by suggesting a natural motive to justify to the injured subject himself the change of the course of his feelings . As his jealousy of Sebastian 's favour , and resentment of his unjust neglect , was chiefly founded on the avowed preference which the king had given to Henriquez , the opportune mention of his rival 's death , by removing the cause of that jealousy , gives the renegade an apology to his own pride , for throwing himself at the feet of that very sovereign , whom a moment before he was determined to force to combat . They are little acquainted with human passions , at least have only witnessed their operations among men of common minds , who doubt , that at the height of their very spring-tide , they are often most susceptible of sudden changes ; revolutions , which seem to those who have not remarked how nearly the most opposite feelings are allied and united , the most extravagant and unaccountable . Muly Moluch is an admirable specimen of that very frequent theatrical character ,\u2014 a stage tyrant . He is fierce and boisterous enough to be sufficiently terrible and odious , and that without much rant , considering he is an infidel Soldan , who , from the ancient deportment of Mahomed and Termagaunt , as they appeared in the old Mysteries , might claim a prescriptive right to tear a passion to tatters . Besides , the Moorish emperor has fine glances of savage generosity , and that free , unconstrained , and almost noble openness , the only good quality , perhaps , which a consciousness of unbounded power may encourage in a mind so firm as not to be totally depraved by it . The character of Muly Moluch , like that of Morat , in \u201c Aureng-Zebe , \u201d to which it bears a strong resemblance , was admirably represented by Kynaston ; who had , says Cibber , \u201c a fierce lion-like majesty in his port and utterance , that gave the spectator a kind of trembling admiration . \u201d It is enough to say of Benducar , that the cool , fawning , intriguing , and unprincipled statesman , is fully developed in his whole conduct ; and of Alvarez , that the little he has to say and do , is so said and done , as not to disgrace his common-place character of the possessor of the secret on which the plot depends ; for it may be casually observed , that the depositary of such a clew to the catastrophe , though of the last importance to the plot , is seldom himself of any interest whatever . The haughty and high-spirited Almeyda is designed by the author as the counterpart of Sebastian . She breaks out with the same violence , I had almost said fury , and frequently discovers a sort of kindred sentiment , intended to prepare the reader for the unfortunate discovery , that she is the sister of the Portuguese monarch . Of the diction , Dr Johnson has said , with meagre commendation , that it has \u201c some sentiments which leave a strong impression , \u201d and \u201c others of excellence , universally acknowledged . \u201d This , even when the admiration of the scene betwixt Dorax and Sebastian has been sanctioned by that great critic , seems scanty applause for the chef d'oeuvre of Dryden 's dramatic works . The reader will be disposed to look for more unqualified praise , when such a poet was induced , by every pressing consideration , to combine , in one effort , the powers of his mighty genius , and the fruits of his long theatrical experience : Accordingly , Shakespeare laid aside , it will be perhaps difficult to point out a play containing more animatory incident , impassioned language , and beautiful description , than \u201c Don Sebastian . \u201d Of the former , the scene betwixt Dorax and the king , had it been the only one ever Dryden wrote , would have been sufficient to insure his immortality . There is not ,\u2014 no , perhaps , not even in Shakespeare ,\u2014 an instance where the chord , which the poet designed should vibrate , is more happily struck ; strains there are of a higher mood , but not more correctly true ; in evidence of which , we have known those , whom distresses of a gentler nature were unable to move , feel their stubborn feelings roused and melted by the injured pride and deep repentance of Dorax . The burst of anguish with which he answers the stern taunt of Sebastian , is one of those rare , but natural instances , in which high-toned passion assumes a figurative language , because all that is familiar seems inadequate to express its feelings :"], "play_index": 28, "act_index": 28}, {"query": ["This speech depends on the gesticulation of the sorcerer : Guise first desires him report the danger to the people ,\u2014 then bids him halt , and express his judgment more fully .

Griglione rispose con brevi e significanti parole : Sire , Io sono ben servitore a Vostra Maest\u00e0 di somma fedelt\u00e0 e divozione , ma faccio professione di soldato , e di cavuliero ; s \u2019 ella vuoles ch \u2019 io vada a sfidare il Duca di Guisa , e che mi ammazzi a corpo a corpo con lui , son pronto a farlo in questo istesso punto ; ma ch \u2019 io serva di manigoldo , mentre la giustizia sua determina di farlo morire , questo non si conviene a par mio , n\u00e8 sono per farlo giammai . Il Re non si stup\u00ec molto della libert\u00e0 di Griglione , noto a lui e a tutta la corte per uomo schietto , e che libramente diceva i suoi sensi senza timore alcuno , e per\u00f2 replic\u00f2 ; che gli bastava , che tenesse segreta questo pensiero , perch\u00e8 non l \u2019 aveva communicato ad alcun altro , e divulgandosi egli sarebbe stato colpevole d \u2019 averlo palesato . A questo rispose Griglione : Essere servitore di fede , d \u2019 onore , n\u00e8 dover mai ridire i segreti interessi del padrone , e partito lasci\u00f2 il Re grandemente dubbioso di quello dovesse operare . \u201d Lib . ix ."], "play_index": 28, "act_index": 28}, {"query": ["Rains , Bevil , Woodly , described as \u201c men of wit and pleasure . \u201d"], "true_target": ["A similar assemblage of terrific circumstances announces the arrival of a fiend upon a similar errand , in the old play , entitled , the \u201c Merry Devil of Edmonton . \u201d What means the trolling of this fatal chime ?

WRITTEN BY MR DRYDENSPOKEN BY MRS COOK . Much time and trouble this poor play has cost ; And , \u2018 faith , I doubted once the cause was lost . Yet no one man was meant , nor great , nor small ; Our poets , like frank gamesters , threw at all . They took no single aim :\u2014 But , like bold boys , true to their prince , and hearty , Huzza 'd , and fired broadsides at the whole party . Duels are crimes ; but , when the cause is right , In battle every man is bound to fight . For what should hinder me to sell my skin , } Dear as I could , if once my hand were in ? } Se defendendo never was a sin . } \u2018 Tis a fine world , my masters ! right or wrong , The Whigs must talk , and Tories hold their tongue . They must do all they can , But we , forsooth , must bear a christian mind ; And fight , like boys , with one hand tied behind ; Nay , and when one boy 's down , \u2018 twere wond'rous wise , To cry ,\u2014 box fair , and give him time to rise . When fortune favours , none but fools will dally ; } Would any of you sparks , if Nan , or Mally , } Tip you the inviting wink , stand , shall I , shall I ? } A Trimmer cried ,Fie , mistress Cook , \u2018 faith you 're too rank a Tory ! Wish not Whigs hanged , but pity their hard cases ; You women love to see men make wry faces .\u2014 Pray , sir , said I , do n't think me such a Jew ; I say no more , but give the devil his due .\u2014 Lenitives , says he , suit best with our condition .\u2014 Jack Ketch , says I , is an excellent physician .\u2014 I love no blood .\u2014 Nor I , sir , as I breathe ; But hanging is a fine dry kind of death .\u2014 We Trimmers are for holding all things even .\u2014 Yes ; just like him that hung \u2018 twixt hell and heaven .\u2014 Have we not had men 's lives enough already ?\u2014 Yes , sure : but you 're for holding all things steady . Now since the weight hangs all on one side , brother , You Trimmers should , to poize it , hang on t'other . Damned neuters , in their middle way of steering , Are neither fish , nor flesh , nor good red-herring : Not Whigs , nor Tories they ; nor this , nor that ; Not birds , nor beasts ; but just a kind of bat : A twilight animal , true to neither cause , With Tory wings , but Whigish teeth and clawsFootnotes : 1 .

But I will not dwell on the beauties of this scene . If any one is incapable of relishing it , he may safely conclude , that nature has not merely denied him that rare gift , poetical taste , but common powers of comprehending the ordinary feelings of humanity . The love scene , betwixt Sebastian and Almeyda , is more purely conceived , and expressed with more reference to sentiment , than is common with our author . The description which Dorax gives of Sebastian , before his appearance , coming from a mortal enemy , at least from one whose altered love was as envenomed as hatred , is a grand preparation for the appearance of the hero . In many of the slighter descriptive passages , we recognize the poet by those minute touches , which a mind susceptible of poetic feeling is alone capable of bringing out . The approach of the emperor , while the conspirators are caballing , is announced by Orchan , with these picturesque circumstances : I see the blaze of torches from afar , And hear the trampling of thick-beating feet \u2014 This way they move .\u2014 The following account , given by the slave sent to observe what passed in the castle of Dorax , believed to be dead , or dying , is equally striking :", "Stand off , sycophant ,", "No part of government , but lords of anarchy ,", "Hold , and let me think .", "Of all court service , learn the common lot ,\u2014", "And bid us pass for men .", "That rolls within my breast .", "But shed from nature , like a kindly shower :", "By manly vengeance to redeem my fame ;", "As that I served thee fifteen hard campaigns ,", "So horrid , in the face of men and angels ,", "You marked not what I told you .", "Expect an answer worthy of that message .", "Because it would oblige me to forgiveness .", "Was the propitious error of my fate ,", "And keep infection distant .", "True , I rebelled : But when did I betray ?\u2014", "I said so , if you lived .", "On palaces returns .

Not daring further to inquire , I came With speed to bring you this imperfect news . The description of the midnight insurrection of the rabble is not less impressive :", "Then cries confused , and a joint clamour , followed ;", "Sometimes hushed silence seemed to reign within ;", "Then lights went gliding by , from room to room ,", "Not daring further to inquire , I came", "And shot , like thwarting meteors , cross the house ."], "play_index": 28, "act_index": 28}, {"query": ["All crowd in heaps , as , at a night alarm ,", "I left him at the gate , firm to your interest ,", "The bees drive out upon each others backs ,", "Than at the mid-day sun ; a drowsy horror", "He only waits your summons .", "What you wish : The streets are thicker in this noon of night , Than at the mid-day sun : A drouzy horror Sits on their eyes , like fear , not well awake : All crowd in heaps , as , at a night alarm , The bees drive out upon each others backs , T'imboss their hives in clusters ; all ask news : Their busy captain runs the weary round To whisper orders ; and , commanding silence , Makes not noise cease , but deafens it to murmurs . These illustrations are designedly selected from the parts of the lower characters , because they at once evince the diligence and success with which Dryden has laboured even the subordinate points of this tragedy . \u201c Don Sebastian \u201d has been weighed , with reference to its tragic merits , against \u201c Love for Love ; \u201d and one or other is universally allowed to be the first of Dryden 's dramatic performances . To the youth of both sexes the latter presents the most pleasing subject of emotion ; but to those whom age has rendered incredulous upon the romantic effects of love , and who do not fear to look into the recesses of the human heart , when agitated by darker and more stubborn passions , \u201c Don Sebastian \u201d offers a far superior source of gratification . To point out the blemishes of so beautiful a tragedy , is a painful , though a necessary , task . The style , here and there , exhibits marks of a reviving taste for those frantic bursts of passion , which our author has himself termed the \u201c Dalilahs of the theatre . \u201d The first speech of Sebastian has been often noticed as an extravagant rant , more worthy of Maximin , or Almanzor , than of a character drawn by our author in his advanced years , and chastened taste : I beg no pity for this mouldering clay ; For if you give it burial , there it takes Possession of your earth : If burnt and scatter 'd in the air , the winds , That strew my dust , diffuse my royalty , And spread me o'er your clime ; for where one atom Of mine shall light , know , there Sebastian reigns . The reader 's discernment will discover some similar extravagancies in the language of Almeyda and the Emperor . It is a separate objection , that the manners of the age and country are not adhered to . Sebastian , by disposition a crusading knight-errant , devoted to religion and chivalry , becomes , in the hands of Dryden , merely a gallant soldier and high-spirited prince , such as existed in the poet 's own days . But , what is worse , the manners of Mahometans are shockingly violated . Who ever heard of human sacrifices , or of any sacrifices , being offered up to Mahomet; and when were his followers able to use the classical and learned allusions which occur throughout the dialogue ! On this last topic Addison makes the following observations , in the \u201c Guardian , \u201d No . 110 . \u201c I have now Mr Dryden 's \u201c Don Sebastian \u201d before me , in which I find frequent allusions to ancient poetry , and the old mythology of the heathens . It is not very natural to suppose a king of Portugal would be borrowing thoughts out of Ovid 's \u201c Metamorphoses , \u201d when he talked even to those of his own court ; but to allude to these Roman fables , when he talks to an emperor of Barbary , seems very extraordinary . But observe how he defies him out of the classics in the following lines : Why didst not thou engage me man to man , And try the virtue of that Gorgon face , To stare me into statue ? \u201c Almeyda , at the same time , is more book-learned than Don Sebastian . She plays an Hydra upon the Emperor , that is full as good as the Gorgon : O that I had the fruitful heads of Hydra , That one might bourgeon where another fell ! Still would I give thee work , still , still , thou tyrant , And hiss thee with the last . \u201c She afterwards , in allusion to Hercules , bids him \u2018 lay down the lion 's skin , and take the distaff ; \u2019 and , in the following speech , utters her passion still more learnedly : No ; were we joined , even though it were in death , Our bodies burning in one funeral pile , The prodigy of Thebes would be renewed , And my divided flame should break from thine . \u201c The emperor of Barbary shews himself acquainted with the Roman poets as well as either of his prisoners , and answers the foregoing speech in the same classic strain : Serpent , I will engender poison with thee : Our offspring , like the seed of dragon 's teeth , Shall issue armed , and fight themselves to death . \u201c Ovid seems to have been Muley-Moloch 's favourite author ; witness the lines that follow : She , still inexorable , still imperious , And loud , as if , like Bacchus , born in thunder . \u201c I shall conclude my remarks on his part with that poetical complaint of his being in love ; and leave my reader to consider , how prettily it would sound in the mouth of an emperor of Morocco : The god of love once more has shot his fires Into my soul , and my whole heart receives him . \u201c Muley Zeydan is as ingenious a man as his brother Muley Moloch ; as where he hints at the story of Castor and Pollux : May we ne'er meet ; For , like the twins of Leda , when I mount , He gallops down the skies . \u201c As for the Mufti , we will suppose that he was bred up a scholar , and not only versed in the law of Mahomet , but acquainted with all kinds of polite learning . For this reason he is not at all surprised when Dorax calls him a Ph\u00e6ton in one place , and in another tells him he is like Archimedes . \u201c The Mufti afterwards mentions Ximenes , Albornoz , and cardinal Wolsey , by name . The poet seems to think , he may make every person , in his play , know as much as himself , and talk as well as he could have done on the same occasion . At least , I believe , every reader will agree with me , that the above-mentioned sentiments , to which I might have added several others , would have been better suited to the court of Augustus than that of Muley Moloch . I grant they are beautiful in themselves , and much more so in that noble language , which was peculiar to this great poet . I only observe , that they are improper for the persons who make use of them . \u201d The catastrophe of the tragedy may be also censured , not only on the grounds objected to that of \u201c OEdipus , \u201d but because it does not naturally flow from the preceding events , and opens , in the fifth act , a new set of persons , and a train of circumstances , unconnected with the preceding action . In the concluding scene , it was remarked , by the critics , that there is a want of pure taste in the lovers dwelling more upon the pleasures than the horrors of their incestuous connection . Of the lighter scenes , which were intended for comic , Dr Johnson has said , \u201c they are such as that age did not probably commend , and as the present would not endure . \u201d Dryden has remarked , with self-complacency , the art with which they are made to depend upon the serious business . This has not , however , the merit of novelty ; being not unlike the connection between the tragic and comic scenes of the \u201c Spanish Friar . \u201d The persons introduced have also some resemblance ; though the gaiety of Antonio is far more gross than that of Lorenzo , and Morayma is a very poor copy of Elvira . It is rather surprising , that when a gay libertine was to be introduced , Dryden did not avail himself of a real character , the English Stukely ; a wild gallant , who , after spending a noble fortune , became the leader of a band of Italian Condottieri , engaged in the service of Sebastian , and actually fell in the battle of Alcazar . Collier complains , and with very good reason , that , in the character of the Mufti , Dryden has seized an opportunity to deride and calumniate the priesthood of every religion ; an opportunity which , I am sorry to say , he seldom fails to use with unjustifiable inveteracy . The rabble scenes were probably given , as our author himself says of that in Cleomenes , \u201c to gratify the more barbarous part of the audience . \u201d Indeed , to judge from the practice of the drama at this time , the representation of a riot upon the stage seems to have had the same charms for the popular part of the English audience , which its reality always possesses in the streets . Notwithstanding the excellence of this tragedy , it appears to have been endured , rather than applauded , at its first representation ; although , being judiciously curtailed , it soon became a great favourite with the public; and , omitting the comic scenes , may be again brought forward with advantage , when the public shall be tired of children and of show . The tragedy of \u201c Don Sebastian \u201d was acted and printed in 1690 . Footnotes : 1 . \u201c The Battle of Alcazar , with Captain Stukely 's death , acted by the Lord High Admiral 's servants , 1594 , \u201d 4to . Baker thinks Dryden might have taken the hint of \u201c Don Sebastian \u201d from this old play .
