A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

As this Comedy will be printed before it is played, the.A uthor can say nothing of its performance. Yet he must be indulged in the opportunity of expressing his thanks for the unwearied politeness and attention of the Managers, Mr. Kemble and Mr. Fawcett, and of the interest taken in its introduction to the Stage by that admirable A ctor, Mr. Jones. The Author would wish to apologize for his Songs; but those who know the extreme difl Siculty of reconciling the wayward nfca-. sures of Foreign Music with English Rhythm, will perhaps he inclined to forgive his verses their want of harmony. Two Songs have been substituted for those printed in pages 48 and 64. One will be found at the end; the other has been introduced by Miss Paton. ,. .S ome passages have been omitted in the course of the Repre -... sentation. ERRATUM: p. 10, line 10,or migfttyr nightly.; .-. iSK Xi,-.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
