Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Cymon, a Dramatic Romance, as It Is Performed at the Theatre Royal in Drury-Lane: The Music by Mr. Arne Prologue, For New Year´s Day. Spoken by Mr. King. I Come, obedient at my Brethren´s Call, From Top to Bottom, to salute you all; Warmly to wish, before our Piece you view, A happy Year - to you - you - you - and you! Box - Pit - I Gall - 2 Gall. From you the Play´rs enjoy, and feel it here, The merry Christmas, and the happy Year. There is a good old Saying - pray attend it; As you begin the Year, you´ll surely end it. Should any one this Night incline to Evil, He´ll play for twelve long Months, the very Devil! Should any married Dame exert her Tongue, She´ll sing, the Zodiac round, the fame sweet Song: And should the Husband join his Music too, Why then ´tis Cat and Dog, the whole Tear thro´. Ye Sons of Law and Physic, for your Ease, Be sure, this Day, you never take your Fees: Can´t you refuse? - then the Disease grows strong, You´ll have two Itching Palms - Lord knows how long! Writers of News by this strange Fate are bound, They fib To-day, and fib the whole Tear round. You Wits assembled here, both great and small, Set not this Night afloat - your Critic Gall; If you should snarl, and not incline to Laughter, What sweet Companions for a Twelvemonth after! You must be muzzled for this Night at least; Our Author has a Right this Day to feast. He has not touch´d one Bit as yet. - Remember, ´Tis a long Fast - from now to next December.
