Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Barnstormer´s Companion: Being a Little Book of Ballads Designed for Recitation Sweeney, The Tragedian I shall tell of what happened to Sweeney, Of a scene that was witnessed by me; I shall tell you the story of Sweeney, A disciple of Booth and Salvini, A tragedian striving to be. With regret, I shall tell Of the wreck that befell His bark on the Thespian Sea. For it ever was Sweeney´s ambition To shine on the tragedy stage: He was firmly convinced of his mission To act, and to please, in addition; And he sighed o´er the drama´s position, And the barbarous mood of the age. Which excluded the grave to perdition, While the gay might its leisure engage. For the popular taste Will to comedy haste, Though the prophets of tragedy rage.
