Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Last Days of the Last of the Three Dibdins: Containing Fifty New Songs, Poems, &C, and One Hundred and Fifty Selections From His Published and Unpublished Productions Sir: Could a single pen concentrate the energies of all whom your Bill in favour of Dramatic Authors has served, it would rather evince the wish, than the power, of adequately acknowledging our obligations. The humble attempt of an individual will, of consequence, be still less able to express more than regret at the absence of talent to display the ardency of his feelings, with a request that his powerless will, suing in forma pauperis, may be kindly accepted for the deed. The advantages you have conferred are so multifariously prospective, that not only literary progeny, but material "children yet unborn," will be affected by results consecrating the memory of their author. Had such a law been enacted thirty years back, the writer of this would, in his decline, have possessed a very considerable income; and will, even now, be able to divide, cum grano salis, the proceeds of that patronage which still honours his past labours, with those gentlemen-managers, prompters, and copyists, whose assumed prerogatives, perquisites, and pilferings, by private sale and resale of his manuscripts, have, for years, monopolized all such profits exclusively for themselves.
