Excerpt from Three Comedies: Translated From the Spanish Invention, interest, sprightly turns in plays, Say what they will, are Spafin's peculiar praise Hers are the plots which strict attention seize, Full of intrigue, and yet disclosed with ease Hence scenes and acts her fertile stage affords, Unknown, unrivall'd, on the foreign boards.

Book Description
Excerpt from General Post: A Comedy in Three Acts Scene: The morning-room of Sir Dennys Broughton's residence - "Grange Court," near Sheffingham. An entirely delightful room, in the designing of which primary consideration has been given to the comfort of the occupant, without in any way detracting from the appeal to the eye. Every advantage has been taken of its sunny situation - white paint and gaily-coloured chintzes contrive to keep it bright even upon the dullest day, while flowering plants, and bowls and vases of cut flowers, "arranged" by somebody who loves flowers and understands them, add to its charm immeasurably. At the back of the room are three steps leading to a French window, which opens into the garden. When its doors are thrown wide, as they are at the moment that the curtain rises upon the play, one looks out on to a lawn of velvet turf shaded beneath the branches of a giant cedar, and on to flower borders radiant with bloom.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Wisdom of the Wise: A Comedy in Three Acts The construction of this comedy rests, it will be seen, on strictly traditional lines. In Act I. The various characters are introduced, their several points of view made clear, and the wheels of the slight - designedly slight - plot are set in motion. In Act II. We have what is known as the nouement, and in the third act, the denouement. The author's aim was to present, as it were, a little diagram of mischief-making and mischief-makers. It would have been easier to have drawn the sketch in stronger colours, but the result might have been more painful than amusing a tragedy, not a comedy at all. This being the case, it is hoped that those who prefer to be entertained rather than saddened by fiction will find themselves in sympathy with Georgina suffering under advice, and encouraged by the inevitable disagreements of her advisers.

Book Description
Excerpt from Dulcy: A Comedy in Three ActsHere is a familiar ring; no playwright who goes often to New York will find the tintin nabulation altogether strange to his ear, and all of our playwrights must go there to get for their work an Opinion that the rest of the country will later mistake for its own. N O, the Master of Strawberry, coming to Arlington Street in Town, and venturing to the theatre in spite of his age, high taste and the gout, was but follow ing an everlasting fashion when he thus sat upon that Silly Dr. Goldsmith and the Doctor's new Comedy. It happened to be She Stoops to Conquer, this lowest of all farces, not a Comedy at all, according to Mr. Walpole, who died only some twenty-four or twenty-five years after that First Night; not living long enough, of course, to alter his unfavorable opinion. For if there be, indeed, any everlasting fashion, it is the fashion of taking a slighting view of a con temporary - a fashion even more indestructible than the other fashion complementary to it, which is the fashion of taking a ponderously reverential view of ancient performers no longer rivals to the unconsciously jealous living. If silly Dr. Goldsmith had written She Stoops to Conquer seventy years sooner than he did that low farce might have borne a pleasanter flavor to Mr. Walpole, who in his Old age asked people to remember that he had known Pope and lived with Gray. He liked Gray better.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
