You would letthem go cold; you know you would!""I wish to hatch my own eggs; I willhatch them all by myself," quackedJemima Puddle-duck.[Illustration]She tried to hide her eggs; but theywere always found and carried off.Jemima Puddle-duck became quite desperate. She determined to makea nestright away from the farm.[Illustration]She set off on a fine spring afternoon along the cart-roadthat leads overthe hill.She was wearing a shawl and a poke bonnet.[Illustration]When she reached thetop of the hill, she saw a wood in the distance.She thought that it looked a safe quietspot.[Illustration]Jemima Puddle-duck was not much in the habit of flying. She ran downhill afew yardsflapping her shawl, and then she jumped off into the air.[Illustration]She flew beautifully when she hadgot a good start.She skimmed along over the tree-tops until she saw an open place in themiddle of thewood, where the trees and brushwood had been cleared.[Illustration]Jemima alighted rather heavily, andbegan to waddle about in search of aconvenient dry nesting-place. She rather fancied a tree-stumpamongst sometall fox-gloves.But--seated upon the stump, she was startled to find an elegantlydressedgentleman reading a newspaper.He had black prick ears and sandy coloured whiskers."Quack?"said Jemima Puddle-duck, with her head and her bonnet on oneside--"Quack?"[Illustration]Thegentleman raised his eyes above his newspaper and looked curiously atJemima--"Madam, have you lostyour way?" said he. He had a long bushy tail whichhe was sitting upon, as the stump was somewhatdamp.Jemima thought him mighty civil and handsome. She explained that she hadnot lost her way, butthat she was trying to find a convenient drynesting-place.[Illustration]"Ah! is that so? indeed!" said thegentleman with sandy whiskers, lookingcuriously at Jemima. He folded up the newspaper, and put it inhiscoat-tail pocket.Jemima complained of the superfluous hen."Indeed! how interesting! I wish I couldmeet with that fowl. I wouldteach it to mind its own business!"[Illustration]"But as to a nest--there is nodifficulty: I have a sackful of feathers inmy wood-shed. No, my dear madam, you will be in nobody's way.You may sitthere as long as you like," said the bushy long-tailed gentleman.He led the way to a veryretired, dismal-looking house amongst thefox-gloves.It was built of faggots and turf, and there were twobroken pails, one ontop of another, by way of a chimney.[Illustration]"This is my summer residence; youwould not find my earth--my winterhouse--so convenient," said the hospitable gentleman.There was atumble-down shed at the back of the house, made of oldsoap-boxes. The gentleman opened the door,and showed Jemima in.[Illustration]The shed was almost quite full of feathers--it was almost suffocating;butit was comfortable and very soft.Jemima Puddle-duck was rather surprised to find such a vast quantityoffeathers. But it was very comfortable; and she made a nest without anytrouble at all.[Illustration]Whenshe came out, the sandy whiskered gentleman was sitting on a logreading the newspaper--at least hehad it spread out, but he was lookingover the top of it.He was so polite, that he seemed almost sorry to

On his left is the fireplace, with a fireburning. On hisright, against the opposite wall is a standing desk with an officestool. The door is in thewall behind him, half way between the tableand the desk. The table is not quite in the middle of theroom: it isnearer to the hearthrug than to the desk. There is a chair at each endof it for persons havingbusiness with the general. There is a telephoneon the table. Long silence.A VOICE OUTSIDE. Votes forWomen!The General starts convulsively; snatches a revolver from a drawer,and listens in an agony ofapprehension. Nothing happens. He puts therevolver back, ashamed; wipes his brow; and resumes hiswork. Heis startled afresh by the entry of an Orderly. This Orderly is anunsoldierly, slovenly, discontentedyoung man.MITCHENER. Oh, it's only you. Well?THE ORDERLY. Another one, sir. Shes chainedherself.MITCHENER. Chained herself? How? To what? Weve taken away the railingsand everything that achain can be passed through.THE ORDERLY. We forgot the doorscraper, sir. She laid down on theflagsand got the chain through before she started hollerin. Shes lying therenow; and she says that youvegot the key of the padlock in a letter in abuff envelope, and that you will see her when you openit.MITCHENER. Shes mad. Have the scraper dug up and let her go home with ithanging round herneck.THE ORDERLY. Theres a buff envelope there, sir.MITCHENER. Youre all afraid of these women(picking the letter up). Itdoes seem to have a key in it. (He opens the letter, and takes out a keyand anote.) "Dear Mitch"--Well, I'm dashed!THE ORDERLY. Yes Sir.MITCHENER. What do you mean by YesSir?THE ORDERLY. Well, you said you was dashed, Sir; and you did look ifyoull excuse my saying it,Sir--well, you looked it.MITCHENER (who has been reading the letter, and is too astonished toattend tothe Orderlys reply). This is a letter from the Prime Ministerasking me to release the woman with this keyif she padlocks herself,and to have her shown up and see her at once.THE ORDERLY (tremulously). Dontdo it, governor.MITCHENER (angrily). How often have I ordered you not to address me asgovernor.Remember that you are a soldier and not a vulgar civilian.Remember also that when a man enters thearmy he leaves fear behind him.Heres the key. Unlock her and show her up.THE ORDERLY. Me unlockher! I dursent. Lord knows what she'd do to me.MITCHENER (pepperily, rising). Obey your ordersinstantly, Sir, and dontpresume to argue. Even if she kills you, it is your duty to die for yourcountry.Right about face. March. (The Orderly goes out, trembling.)THE VOICE OUTSIDE. Votes for Women!Votes for Women! Votes for Women!MITCHENER (mimicking her). Votes for Women! Votes for Women!Votes forWomen! (in his natural voice) Votes for children! Votes for babies!Votes for monkeys! (He postshimself on the hearthrug, and awaits theenemy.)THE ORDERLY (outside). In you go. (He pushes apanting Suffraget intothe room.) The person sir. (He withdraws.)The Suffraget takes off her tailor madeskirt and reveals a pair offashionable trousers.MITCHENER (horrified). Stop, madam. What are youdoing? You must notundress in my presence. I protest. Not even your letter from the PrimeMinister--THESUFFRAGET. My dear Mitchener: I AM the Prime Minister. (He tears offhis hat and cloak; throws them onthe desk; and confronts the General inthe ordinary costume of a Cabinet minister.)MITCHENER. Goodheavens! Balsquith!BALSQUITH (throwing himself into Mitchener's chair). Yes: it is indeedBalsquith. Ithas come to this: that the only way that the PrimeMinister of England can get from Downing Street to theWar Office isby assuming this disguise; shrieking "VOTES for Women"; and chaininghimself to yourdoorscraper. They were at the corner in force. Theycheered me. Bellachristina herself was there. Sheshook my hand and toldme to say I was a vegetarian, as the diet was better in Holloway

Untothe spirit of evil, not of good,  The earth belongs. What deities send to us  From heaven are onlyuniversal goods;  Their light gives gladness, but makes no man rich;  And in their state possession notobtains.  Therefore, the stone of price, all-treasured gold,  Must from the powers of falsehood beenticed,  The evil race that dwells beneath the day.  Not without sacrifice their favor is gained,  And noman liveth who from serving them  Hath extricated undefiled his soul."CHARACTERS  DR. SCHÃN,newspaper owner and editor.  ALVA, his son, a writer.

He carriesin his left hand a dog-whip and in his right a loaded revolver,andenters to the sound of cymbals and kettle-drums.)  Walk in! Walk in to the menagery,  Proudgentlemen and ladies lively and merry!  With avid lust or cold disgust, the very  Beast without Soul boundand made secondary  To human genius, to stay and see!  Walk in, the show'll begin!--As customary,  Onechild to each two persons comes in free.  Here battle man and brute in narrow cages  Where one inhaught disdain his long whip lashes  And one, with growls as when the thunder rages,  Against the man'sthroat murderously dashes,--  Where now the crafty conquers, now the strong,  Now man, now beast,lies cowed the floor along;  The animal rears,--the human on all fours!  One ice-cold look ofdominance--  The beast submissive bows before that glance,  And the proud heel upon his neckadores.  Bad are the times! Ladies and gentlemen  Who once before my cage in throngingcrescents  Crowded, now honor operas, and then  Ibsen, with their so highly valued presence.  Myboarders here are so in want of fodder  That they reciprocally devour each other.  How well off at thetheater is a player,  Sure of the meat upon his ribs, albeit  His frightful hunger may tear him and heit  And colleagues' inner cupboards be quite bare!--  Greatness in art we struggle to inherit,  Although thesalary never match the merit.  What see you, whether in light or sombre plays?  =House-animals=,whose morals all must praise,  Who wreak pale spites in vegetarian ways,  And revel in an easy cry orfret,  Just like those others--down in the parquet.  This hero has a head by one dram swirled;  That is indoubt whether his love be right;  A third you hear despairing of the world,--  Full five acts long you hearhim wail his plight,  And no man ends him with a merciful sleight!  But the =real= beast, the =beautiful=,=wild= beast,  Your eyes on =that=, _I_, ladies, only feast!  You see the Tiger, that habitually  Devours

It is a clinicalstudy of how the thing actually occurs among quite ordinarypeople,innocent of all unconventional views concerning it. The enormousmajority of cases in real life arethose of people in that position.Those who deliberately and conscientiously profess what are oddlycalledadvanced views by those others who believe them to beretrograde, are often, and indeed mostly, the lastpeople in the worldto engage in unconventional adventures of any kind, not only becausethey haveneither time nor disposition for them, but because thefriction set up between the individual and thecommunity by theexpression of unusual views of any sort is quite enough hindrance tothe heretic withoutbeing complicated by personal scandals. Thus thetheoretic libertine is usually a person of blamelessfamily life,whilst the practical libertine is mercilessly severe on all otherlibertines, and excessivelyconventional in professions of socialprinciple.What is more, these professions are not hypocritical: theyare for themost part quite sincere. The common libertine, like the drunkard,succumbs to a temptationwhich he does not defend, and against which hewarns others with an earnestness proportionate to theintensity of hisown remorse. He (or she) may be a liar and a humbug, pretending to bebetter than thedetected libertines, and clamoring for their condignpunishment; but this is mere self-defence. Noreasonable person expectsthe burglar to confess his pursuits, or to refrain from joining in thecry of StopThief when the police get on the track of another burglar.If society chooses to penalize candor, it hasitself to thank if itsattack is countered by falsehood. The clamorous virtue of the libertineis therefore nomore hypocritical than the plea of Not Guilty which isallowed to every criminal. But one result is that thetheorists whowrite most sincerely and favorably about polygamy know least about it;and the practitionerswho know most about it keep their knowledge veryjealously to themselves. Which is hardly fair to thepractice.INACCESSIBILITY OF THE FACTS.Also it is impossible to estimate its prevalence. A practice towhichnobody confesses may be both universal and unsuspected, just as avirtue which everybody isexpected, under heavy penalties, to claim,may have no existence. It is often assumed--indeed it is theofficialassumption of the Churches and the divorce courts that a gentleman anda lady cannot be alonetogether innocently. And that is manifestblazing nonsense, though many women have been stoned todeath in theeast, and divorced in the west, on the strength of it. On the otherhand, the innocent andconventional people who regard the gallantadventures as crimes of so horrible a nature that only themostdepraved and desperate characters engage in them or would listen toadvances in that directionwithout raising an alarm with the noisiestindignation, are clearly examples of the fact that most sectionsofsociety do not know how the other sections live. Industry is the mosteffective check on gallantry.Women may, as Napoleon said, be theoccupation of the idle man just as men are the preoccupation oftheidle woman; but the mass of mankind is too busy and too poor for thelong and expensive sieges whichthe professed libertine lays to virtue.Still, wherever there is idleness or even a reasonable supplyofelegant leisure there is a good deal of coquetry and philandering. Itis so much pleasanter to dance onthe edge of a precipice than to goover it that leisured society is full of people who spend a great partoftheir lives in flirtation, and conceal nothing but the humiliatingsecret that they have never gone anyfurther. For there is no pleasingpeople in the matter of reputation in this department: every insult isaflattery; every testimonial is a disparagement: Joseph is despisedand promoted, Potiphar's wife admired

Her shapely, sandalled foottappedimpatiently upon the jewel-strewn walk that wound beneath thestately sorapus trees across thescarlet sward of the royal gardensof Thuvan Dihn, Jeddak of Ptarth, as a dark-haired, red-skinnedwarriorbent low toward her, whispering heated words close to herear."Ah, Thuvia of Ptarth," he cried, "you arecold even before thefiery blasts of my consuming love!  No harder than your heart, norcolder is the hard,cold ersite of this thrice happy bench whichsupports your divine and fadeless form!  Tell me, O ThuviaofPtarth, that I may still hope--that though you do not love me now,yet some day, some day, myprincess, I--"The girl sprang to her feet with an exclamation of surprise anddispleasure.  Her queenlyhead was poised haughtily upon her smoothred shoulders.  Her dark eyes looked angrily into those of theman."You forget yourself, and the customs of Barsoom, Astok," she said."I have given you no right thusto address the daughter of ThuvanDihn, nor have you won such a right."The man reached suddenly forthand grasped her by the arm."You shall be my princess!" he cried.  "By the breast of Issus, thoushalt, norshall any other come between Astok, Prince of Dusar,and his heart's desire.  Tell me that there isanother, and I shallcut out his foul heart and fling it to the wild calots of the deadsea-bottoms!"At touchof the man's hand upon her flesh the girl went pallidbeneath her coppery skin, for the persons of theroyal women ofthe courts of Mars are held but little less than sacred.  The actof Astok, Prince of Dusar,was profanation.  There was no terrorin the eyes of Thuvia of Ptarth--only horror for the thing themanhad done and for its possible consequences."Release me."  Her voice was level--frigid.The manmuttered incoherently and drew her roughly toward him."Release me!" she repeated sharply, "or I callthe guard, and thePrince of Dusar knows what that will mean."Quickly he threw his right arm about hershoulders and strove todraw her face to his lips.  With a little cry she struck him fullin the mouth with themassive bracelets that circled her free arm."Calot!" she exclaimed, and then:  "The guard!  Theguard!  Hastenin protection of the Princess of Ptarth!"In answer to her call a dozen guardsmen cameracing across thescarlet sward, their gleaming long-swords naked in the sun, themetal of theiraccoutrements clanking against that of their leathernharness, and in their throats hoarse shouts of rageat the sightwhich met their eyes.But before they had passed half across the royal garden to whereAstokof Dusar still held the struggling girl in his grasp, anotherfigure sprang from a cluster of dense foliagethat half hid a goldenfountain close at hand.  A tall, straight youth he was, with blackhair and keen greyeyes; broad of shoulder and narrow of hip; aclean-limbed fighting man.  His skin was but faintly tingedwiththe copper colour that marks the red men of Mars from the otherraces of the dying planet--he waslike them, and yet there was asubtle difference greater even than that which lay in his lighterskin and hisgrey eyes.There was a difference, too, in his movements.  He came on in greatleaps that carried him soswiftly over the ground that the speedof the guardsmen was as nothing by comparison.Astok stillclutched Thuvia's wrist as the young warrior confrontedhim.  The new-comer wasted no time and hespoke but a single word."Calot!" he snapped, and then his clenched fist landed beneath theother's chin,lifting him high into the air and depositing him ina crumpled heap within the centre of the pimalia bush

He stood in the centre of thefragrantgarden and watched the glory of color suffusing the Surrey hills towardsthe west.  With a sigh heturned away and walked to the house."Whereâs Diana?" he called, as he came from the gardenthrough thecasement-window of the library."Dianaâwhy, sheâs in bed an hour ago, I shouldhope," replied his aunt,Lady Elizabeth Kerhill. "She and Mabel went with Bates to see thedecorations andthen said good-night.  Surely you didnât expect me toallow the children to stay up for the ball?"Mabelwas her daughter; Diana Marjoribanks was a young girl of thirteen,who had come to visit her."Poor imps!they were so excited all day, and followed me about thegun-room where I was doing some packing.  Theywanted me to coax you toallow them to see the ball, and the tenantry welcome Henry to-night."LadyKerhill elevated her eyebrows in questioning amazement at Jim, asshe nervously twisted the lace of hergown, and with an impatientgesture motioned the subject aside.  She was a tall, angular woman, withaprofile like the head on a bronze coin; there was a suggestion of theeagle in her personality, and by herfriends she was likened to thefamous Sarah Churchill, the first Duchess of Marlborough.To-night her faceshowed that anxious thoughts were crowding in on heras she apprehensively watched the big, carved oakdoor leading into thehall. Jim knew his auntâs firmness of character, and as silence followedhiswords, he feared further discussion was useless; but the wistfulfaces of the children at tea-time in thenursery, as they coaxed him toplead for them to see the fun, made him venture a final appeal."You know,Aunt, Sir Charles brought Di over to stay with Mabel so thatshe might see the festivities and incidentallysay good-bye to me, soyou might turn angel and let Diana dance once with me at the verybeginning ofthe ball.  I shaânât see my little playfellow for ages, youknow."A sound from outside held LadyElizabethâs attention more intently thanJimâs pleading words.  He crossed to her in thewindow-enclosure andlaid his hand caressingly on her shoulder."The Colonel wired me that we wereleaving Paddington at nine to-morrowmorning, and India is a long way off, Auntie mine.""Nonsense,"answered Lady Elizabeth, as she rose from the deepwindow-seat.  "You are almost twenty, and Diana isonly a babeâisnâtshe, Henry?"  She glanced up and appealed to the young man who rathernoisily

StocktonIn the very olden time there lived a semi-barbaricking, whose ideas,though somewhat polished and sharpened by the progressiveness ofdistant Latinneighbors, were still large, florid, and untrammeled, asbecame the half of him which was barbaric. Hewas a man of exuberantfancy, and, withal, of an authority so irresistible that, at his will,he turned hisvaried fancies into facts. He was greatly given toself-communing, and, when he and himself agreed uponanything, thething was done.  When every member of his domestic and politicalsystems moved smoothlyin its appointed course, his nature was blandand genial; but, whenever there was a little hitch, and someof hisorbs got out of their orbits, he was blander and more genial still, fornothing pleased him so much asto make the crooked straight and crushdown uneven places.Among the borrowed notions by which hisbarbarism had become semifiedwas that of the public arena, in which, by exhibitions of manly andbeastlyvalor, the minds of his subjects were refined and cultured.But even here the exuberant and barbaricfancy asserted itself. Thearena of the king was built, not to give the people an opportunity ofhearing therhapsodies of dying gladiators, nor to enable them to viewthe inevitable conclusion of a conflict betweenreligious opinions andhungry jaws, but for purposes far better adapted to widen and developthe mentalenergies of the people. This vast amphitheater, with itsencircling galleries, its mysterious vaults, and itsunseen passages,was an agent of poetic justice, in which crime was punished, or virtuerewarded, by thedecrees of an impartial and incorruptible chance.When a subject was accused of a crime of sufficientimportance tointerest the king, public notice was given that on an appointed day thefate of the accusedperson would be decided in the king's arena, astructure which well deserved its name, for, although itsform and planwere borrowed from afar, its purpose emanated solely from the brain ofthis man, who,every barleycorn a king, knew no tradition to which heowed more allegiance than pleased his fancy, andwho ingrafted on everyadopted form of human thought and action the rich growth of hisbarbaricidealism.When all the people had assembled in the galleries, and the king,surrounded by his court, sathigh up on his throne of royal state onone side of the arena, he gave a signal, a door beneath himopened, andthe accused subject stepped out into the amphitheater. Directlyopposite him, on the otherside of the inclosed space, were two doors,exactly alike and side by side. It was the duty and theprivilege ofthe person on trial to walk directly to these doors and open one ofthem. He could open eitherdoor he pleased; he was subject to noguidance or influence but that of the aforementioned impartialandincorruptible chance. If he opened the one, there came out of it ahungry tiger, the fiercest and mostcruel that could be procured, whichimmediately sprang upon him and tore him to pieces as a punishmentforhis guilt. The moment that the case of the criminal was thus decided,doleful iron bells were clanged,great wails went up from the hiredmourners posted on the outer rim of the arena, and the vastaudience,with bowed heads and downcast hearts, wended slowly their homeward way,mourning greatlythat one so young and fair, or so old and respected,should have merited so dire a fate.But, if the accusedperson opened the other door, there came forth fromit a lady, the most suitable to his years and stationthat his majestycould select among his fair subjects, and to this lady he wasimmediately married, as areward of his innocence. It mattered not thathe might already possess a wife and family, or that hisaffectionsmight be engaged upon an object of his own selection; the king allowedno such subordinatearrangements to interfere with his great scheme ofretribution and reward. The exercises, as in the otherinstance, tookplace immediately, and in the arena. Another door opened beneath theking, and a priest,followed by a band of choristers, and dancingmaidens blowing joyous airs on golden horns and treadingan epithalamicmeasure, advanced to where the pair stood, side by side, and thewedding was promptly

TALES OF MYLANDLORDCOLLECTED AND REPORTED BY JEDEDIAH CLEISHBOTHAM, SCHOOLMASTERANDPARISH-CLERK OF GANDERCLEUGH.INTRODUCTION.As I may, without vanity, presume that thename and official descriptionprefixed to this Proem will secure it, from the sedate and reflectingpart ofmankind, to whom only I would be understood to address myself,such attention as is due to the sedulousinstructor of youth, and thecareful performer of my Sabbath duties, I will forbear to hold upa candle tothe daylight, or to point out to the judicious thoserecommendations of my labours which they mustnecessarily anticipatefrom the perusal of the title-page. Nevertheless, I am not unaware,that, as Envyalways dogs Merit at the heels, there may be those whowill whisper, that albeit my learning and goodprinciples cannot(lauded be the heavens) be denied by any one, yet that my situation atGandercleughhath been more favourable to my acquisitions in learningthan to the enlargement of my views of theways and works of the presentgeneration. To the which objection, if, peradventure, any such shallbestarted, my answer shall be threefold:First, Gandercleugh is, as it were, the central part--the navel(SIFAS SIT DICERE) of this our native realm of Scotland; so that men, fromevery corner thereof, whentravelling on their concernments of business,either towards our metropolis of law, by which I meanEdinburgh, ortowards our metropolis and mart of gain, whereby I insinuate Glasgow,are frequently led tomake Gandercleugh their abiding stage and place ofrest for the night. And it must be acknowledged bythe most sceptical,that I, who have sat in the leathern armchair, on the left-hand side ofthe fire, in thecommon room of the Wallace Inn, winter and summer,for every evening in my life, during forty yearsbypast (the ChristianSabbaths only excepted), must have seen more of the manners and customsofvarious tribes and people, than if I had sought them out by myown painful travel and bodily labour. Evenso doth the tollman at thewell-frequented turn-pike on the Wellbraehead, sitting at his ease inhis owndwelling, gather more receipt of custom, than if, moving forthupon the road, he were to require acontribution from each person whomhe chanced to meet in his journey, when, according to the vulgaradage,he might possibly be greeted with more kicks than halfpence.But, secondly, supposing it againurged, that Ithacus, the most wise ofthe Greeks, acquired his renown, as the Roman poet hath assuredus, byvisiting states and men, I reply to the Zoilus who shall adhere to thisobjection, that, DE FACTO, Ihave seen states and men also; for I havevisited the famous cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow, the formertwice,and the latter three times, in the course of my earthly pilgrimage. And,moreover, I had the honourto sit in the General Assembly (meaning, asan auditor, in the galleries thereof), and have heard as muchgoodlyspeaking on the law of patronage, as, with the fructification thereofin mine own understanding,hath made me be considered as an oracle uponthat doctrine ever since my safe and happy return toGandercleugh.Again--and thirdly, If it be nevertheless pretended that my informationand knowledge ofmankind, however extensive, and however painfullyacquired, by constant domestic enquiry, and byforeign travel, is,natheless, incompetent to the task of recording the pleasant narrativesof my Landlord, Iwill let these critics know, to their own eternalshame and confusion as well as to the abashment anddiscomfiture of allwho shall rashly take up a song against me, that I am NOT the writer,redacter, orcompiler, of the Tales of my Landlord; nor am I, in onesingle iota, answerable for their contents, more or

AS PERFORMED AT THE THEATRE ROYAL,COVENT GARDEN. PRINTED UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF THE MANAGERS FROM THE PROMPT BOOK.WITH REMARKS BY MRS. INCHBALD. LONDON: PRINTED FOR LONGMAN, HURST, REES, AND ORMEPATERNOSTER ROW. WILLIAM SAVAGE, PRINTER, LONDON.REMARKS.If the two last acts of this dramawere equal to the three first, itwould rank the foremost among Farquhar's works; for these are brilliantinwit, humour, character, incident, and every other requisite necessaryto form a complete comedy. But thedecrease of merit in a play, onapproaching its conclusion, is, as in all other productions, ofmostunfortunate consequence.The author was himself a recruiting officer, and possibly gathered allthematerials for this play on the very spot where he has placed hisscene--Shrewsbury. He has dedicated thepiece "to all friends round theWrekin," and has thanked the inhabitants of the town for thatcheerfulhospitality, which made, he adds, "the recruiting service, to some menthe greatest fatigue onearth, to me the greatest pleasure in theworld."He even acknowledges, that he found the country folk,whom he has hereintroduced--meaning those most excellently drawn characters of Rose, herbrother, andthe two recruits,--under the shade of that beforementionedhill near Shrewsbury, the Wrekin; and it maybe well supposed, that hediscovered Serjeant Kite in his own Regiment, and Captain Plume in hisownperson. Certainly those characters have every appearance of beingcopied from life--and probably, manyother of his Salopian acquaintancehave here had their portraits drawn to perfection.The disguise of Sylviain boy's clothes, is an improbable, and romanticoccurrence; yet it is one of those dramatic events, whichwere consideredas perfectly natural in former times; although neither history, nortradition, gives anycause to suppose, that the English ladies wereaccustomed to attire themselves in man's apparel; andreason assuresus, that they could seldom, if ever, have concealed their sex by suchstratagem.Anotherincident in the "Recruiting Officer" might have had its value ahundred years ago--just the time since theplay was first acted; but tothe present generation, it is so dull, that it casts a heaviness uponall thosescenes, whereon it has any influence. Fortune-tellers are nowa set of personages, in whom, and in whoseskill or fraud, no rationalperson takes interest; and though such people still exist by theirprofession, theyare so vile, they are beneath satire; and their dupessuch ideots, they do not even enjoy sense enough,for their folly toproduce risibility.Perhaps, the author despised this part of his play, as much astheseverest critic can do; but having expended his store of entertainmentupon the foregoing scenes, hewas compelled to supply the bulk of thetwo last acts, from the scanty fund of wasted spirits, andexhaustedinvention.The life of Farquhar was full of adventures.--As a student, he wasexpelled the collegeof Dublin, for adventuring profane wit upon asacred theme, given to him by his tutor for his exercise.Asan actor, he forsook the stage in grief and horror, on havingunknowingly made use of a real sword,instead of a counterfeit one, bywhich he wounded a brother performer, with whom he had to fence inatragedy, nearly to the loss of his life.In love, and marriage, his enterprises were still moreunhappilyterminated.--And merely as an author, and a soldier, can any eventsof his life be accountedprosperous.As a dramatic writer, Farquhar was eminently successful; and in hismilitary capacity, he wasever honoured and beloved--whether fightingwith a great army in Flanders, or recruiting with a smallparty inShropshire.DRAMATIS PERSONÃ.

ASSISTANT PROFESSOR OF ENGLISH, KENYONCOLLEGE  PRESS OF  THE NEW ERA PRINTING COMPANY  LANCASTER, PA.  1918  Accepted by theDepartment of English, June, 1916PREFACEThis critical edition of _The Fatal Dowry_ was undertaken as aThesisin partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Ph.D. atPrinceton University. It wascompiled under the guidance and directionof Professor T.Â M. Parrott of that institution, and every pageofit is indebted to him for suggestion, advice, and criticism. I canbut inadequately indicate the scope ofhis painstaking and scholarlysupervision, and can even less adequately express my appreciation ofhisever-patient aid, which alone made this work possible.I desire also to acknowledge my debt to ProfessorJ. Duncan Spaethof Princeton University, for his valuable suggestions in regard tothe presentation of mymaterial, notably in the Introduction; also toProfessor T.Â W. Baldwin of Muskingum College and Mr.Henry Bowman,both of them then fellow graduate students of mine at Princeton, forassistance on severaloccasions in matters of special inquiry; and toDr. M.Â W. Tyler of the Princeton Department of History fordirecting mein clearing up a lego-historical point; and finally to the libraries ofYale and ColumbiaUniversities for their kind loan of needed books.INTRODUCTIONIn the Stationerâs Register thefollowing entry is recorded under thedate of â30Âº Martij 1632:â  CONSTABLE Entred for his copyvnder the hands of Sir HENRY HERBERT    and master _SMITHWICKE_ warden a Tragedy called _theffatall    Dowry_.    Vj d.In the year 1632 was published a quarto volume whose title-page wasinscribed:_The Fatall Dowry_: a Tragedy: As it hath been often Actedat the Private House in Blackfriars, by hisMajesties Servants.Written by P.Â M. and N.Â F. London, Printed by John Norton, for FrancisConstable,and are to be sold at his shop at the Crane, in PaulsChurchyard. 1632.That the initials by which theauthors are designated stand for PhilipMassinger and Nathaniel Field is undoubted.LATER TEXTSThere isno other seventeenth century edition of _The Fatal Dowry_. Itwas included in various subsequentcollections, as follows:I. _The Works of Philip Massinger_--edited by Thomas Coxeter,1759--re-issued in1761, with an introduction by T. Davies.II. _The Dramatic Works of Philip Massinger_--edited by JohnMonckMason, 1779.III. _The Plays of Philip Massinger_--edited by William Gifford, 1805.There was arevised second edition in 1813, which is still regarded asthe Standard Massinger Text, and was followedin subsequent editions ofGifford.IV. _Modern British Drama_--edited by Sir Walter Scott, 1811. The textofthis reprint of _The Fatal Dowry_ is Giffordâs.V. _Dramatic Works of Massinger and Ford_--edited byHartley Coleridge,1840 (_et seq._). This follows the text of Gifford.VI. _The Plays of Philip Massinger._From the Text of William Gifford.With the Addition of the Tragedy Believe as You List. Edited byFrancisCunningham, 1867 (_et seq._). The Fatal Dowry in this edition, as inthe preceding, is a merereprint of the Second Edition of Gifford.VII. _Philip Massinger._ Selected Plays. (Mermaid Series.) EditedbyArthur Symons, 1887-9 (_et seq._).In addition to the above, _The Fatal Dowry_ appeared in _ThePlays ofPhilip Massinger_, adapted for family reading and the use of youngpersons, by the omission ofobjectionable passages,--edited by Harness,1830-1; and another expurgated version was printed in the_Mirror ofTaste and Dramatic Censor_, 1810. Both of these are based on the textof Gifford.The edition ofCoxeter is closest of all to the Quarto, following evenmany of its most palpable mistakes, and adding

Notpoor with the arrogant povertycomplained of by certain people who have five or six thousand a yeartolive upon, and who yet swear they can hardly manage to make both endsmeet, but reallypoor,--downright, cruelly, hideously poor, with apoverty that is graceless, sordid and miserable? Povertythat compelsyou to dress in your one suit of clothes till it is wornthreadbare,--that denies you clean linenon account of the ruinouscharges of washerwomen,--that robs you of your own self-respect, andcausesyou to slink along the streets vaguely abashed, instead ofwalking erect among your fellow-men inindependent ease,--this is thesort of poverty I mean. This is the grinding curse that keeps downnobleaspiration under a load of ignoble care; this is the moral cancer thateats into the heart of anotherwise well-intentioned human creature andmakes him envious and malignant, and inclined to the useof dynamite.When he sees the fat idle woman of society passing by in her luxuriouscarriage, lolling backlazily, her face mottled with the purple and redsigns of superfluous eating,--when he observes thebrainless and sensualman of fashion smoking and dawdling away the hours in the Park, as ifall the worldand its millions of honest hard workers were createdsolely for the casual diversion of the so-called 'upper'classes,--thenthe good blood in him turns to gall, and his suffering spirit rises infierce rebellion, cryingout--"Why in God's name, should this injusticebe?

His purposeis neither selfish nor temporary,but aims at the illustration of some important branches of themoralconstitution of man. Whether this tale will be classed with the ordinaryor frivolous sources ofamusement, or be ranked with the few productionswhose usefulness secures to them a lastingreputation, the reader mustbe permitted to decide.The incidents related are extraordinary and rare.Some of them, perhaps,approach as nearly to the nature of miracles as can be done by thatwhich is nottruly miraculous. It is hoped that intelligent readers willnot disapprove of the manner in whichappearances are solved, but thatthe solution will be found to correspond with the known principlesofhuman nature. The power which the principal person is said to possesscan scarcely be denied to bereal. It must be acknowledged to beextremely rare; but no fact, equally uncommon, is supported by thesamestrength of historical evidence.Some readers may think the conduct of the younger Wielandimpossible. Insupport of its possibility the Writer must appeal to Physicians and tomen conversant withthe latent springs and occasional perversions ofthe human mind. It will not be objected that the instancesof similardelusion are rare, because it is the business of moral painters toexhibit their subject in its mostinstructive and memorable forms. Ifhistory furnishes one parallel fact, it is a sufficient vindication oftheWriter; but most readers will probably recollect an authentic case,remarkably similar to that of Wieland.Itwill be necessary to add, that this narrative is addressed, in anepistolary form, by the Lady whose story itcontains, to a smallnumber of friends, whose curiosity, with regard to it, had been greatlyawakened. Itmay likewise be mentioned, that these events tookplace between the conclusion of the French and thebeginning of therevolutionary war. The memoirs of Carwin, alluded to at the conclusionof the work, willbe published or suppressed according to the receptionwhich is given to the present attempt.C. B. B.September 3, 1798.Chapter II feel little reluctance in complying with your request. You know notfully thecause of my sorrows. You are a stranger to the depth of mydistresses. Hence your efforts at consolationmust necessarily fail. Yetthe tale that I am going to tell is not intended as a claim upon yoursympathy. Inthe midst of my despair, I do not disdain to contributewhat little I can to the benefit of mankind. Iacknowledge your right tobe informed of the events that have lately happened in my family. Makewhatuse of the tale you shall think proper. If it be communicatedto the world, it will inculcate the duty ofavoiding deceit. It willexemplify the force of early impressions, and show the immeasurableevils that flowfrom an erroneous or imperfect discipline.My state is not destitute of tranquillity. The sentiment thatdictatesmy feelings is not hope. Futurity has no power over my thoughts. To allthat is to come I amperfectly indifferent. With regard to myself, Ihave nothing more to fear. Fate has done its worst.Henceforth, I amcallous to misfortune.I address no supplication to the Deity. The power that governsthecourse of human affairs has chosen his path. The decree that ascertainedthe condition of my life,admits of no recal. No doubt it squares withthe maxims of eternal equity. That is neither to be questionednordenied by me. It suffices that the past is exempt from mutation. Thestorm that tore up our happiness,and changed into dreariness and desertthe blooming scene of our existence, is lulled into grim repose;butnot until the victim was transfixed and mangled; till every obstacle wasdissipated by its rage; tillevery remnant of good was wrested from ourgrasp and exterminated.How will your wonder, and that ofyour companions, be excited by mystory! Every sentiment will yield to your amazement. If my
