Originally intended for the Guv- STREET Joon 


Have.been long ſenſible that the days of poetry 
1 are no more, and that-there is but one of the mo- 
erns (who ſhall be nameleſs) that can write either 


ſenſe, or Engliſh, or grammar. For this reaſon I have 
paſs d by unremarked, generally unread, the little, 


quaint, ſhort-liv'd productions of my cotemporaries : 
for it is a maxim with my bookſeller, that no eriticiſm 


on any work can ſell, when the work itſelf does not. 
Hut when J obſerve an author growing into any re- 


putation; when I ſee the ſame play which I had li- 
berally hiſs d the firſt night, advertis'd for a conſider- 


able number of nights together; 1 then begin to look 


about me, and to think it worth criticizing on- A play 


that runs twelve nights, will e a Temperate Cris 


tic as many days. 

The ſucceſs of The Taiout or Hie ES, and 
The Modzax HusBanD, did not only detet mine me 
to draw my pen againſt thoſe two performances, but 


hath likewiſe engaged my eriticiſm on every thing 


which comes from the hands oi that 9 * what ·

The CovenT-Ganpen Tae v bears ſo great an |

needs not the, author's name to aſſure us from what 
quarter it had its original, I ſhall beg leave, there- 
fore, to examine this piece a little, even before I am 
aſſured what ſucceſs it ſhall meet with. Perhaps what 


I ſhall herein ſay may prevent its meeting with any. 


I ſhall not here trovble the reader with a laborious

„ That a Tragedy is a thing of five acts, written dia- 

* loguewiſe, conſiſting of iy

4c tion, characters, ſentiments, diction, and a moral,” 
| Whatever fails ſhort of apy of theſe, is- by n no means 


worthy the name of a Tragedx. 
Quæ genus aut flexum variant, quzcunque novato 258

: Que ſequitur n manca e numero , caſuque propago. 


As for an action, 1 have read it over twice, and 30 
ſolemnly aver, | can find none, at leaſt none worthy 
to be called an action. The author, indeed, in one 
place, ſeems to promiſe DER like an action, 
where Stormandra, who is enraged with Lovegirlo, 
ſends Bilkum to deſtroy him, and at the ſame time 
threatens to deſtroy herſelf ; but alas !- what co es 

ok all this preparation ?— Why, parturiunt mont 
| the audience is deceived, according to cuſtom, hal 
the two murdered people appear in good health. For 
all which great revolution of fortune we have no o- 
ther reaſon given, but that the one has been run thro®

of herſeff ——Ridiculom ! 
The characters, I think, are ſuch, as I have not yet 
met with in Tragedy. Firſt, for the character of mo- 
ther Punchbowl; and, by the way, I cannot con- 
ceive why ſhe is called Mother, Is ſhe the mother of 
any body in the play.? No: from one line one might

procure two whores, &c. but then is ſhe not continu-

PROLEGOMENA: 


But, if I miſtake not, in the ſcene immediately pre- 
ceding, Bilkum and ſhe have mother'd and ſon'd it 
ſeveral times. Sure ſhe cannot be mother to them 
both, when ſhe would put them to bed together. Per- 
haps ſhe is mother-in-law to one of them, as being 


married to her own child. But of this the poet ſhou'd, 


J think, have given us ſome better aſſurance than 


barely intimating that they were going to bed together; 
bhich people in this our ifland have been ſometimes - 
known to do, without going to church together. 


What is intended by the character of Gallono, is dif- 
ficult to imagine. Either he is taken from life, or he 
is not. Methinks, I could wiſh he had been left out 
of the dance, nothing being more unnatural than to 
conceive ſo great a ſot to be a lover of dancing; nay, 
ſo great a lover of dancing, as to take that woman for 
a partner whom he had juſt before been abuſing. As 


for the characters of Lovegirlo and Kiſſinda, they are 
Poor imitations of the characters of Pyrrhus and An- 


dromache in The Disragsr MoTHER, as Bilkum 
and Stormandra are of Oreſtes and Hermione.

Proceed we now to the ſentiments. And here; to 
ſhew bow inclin'd 1 am to admire rather than diſlike, 
I ſhall allow the beautiful manner wherein this play 
ſets oat. The firſt five lines are a mighty pretty ſatire 
on our age, our country, ſtateſmen, lawyers and phy- 
ficians. 1 did 1 not expect from ſuch a beginning? 
But alas! what follows? no fine moral ſentences, not 
a word of liberty and property, no inſinuations that 
vourtiers are fools, and ſtateſmen rogues. You have 
indeed a few limilies; but they are very thin ſown.

The Gentiments fall very ſhort of politeneſs ev 
where; but thoſe in the_mouth of Captain Bite 
breathe the true ſpitit of Billinſgate. The courtſhip 
that paſſes between him and Stormandra in the ſeco d 
act is ſo extremely delicate, ſare the author muſt have 

ſerved an apprenticeſhip there before he could have 

produced it. How unlike this was the beautiful man-

1 SOCRATES, who owed his deſtruQion greatly to 
the contempt brought on him by the comedies of 
Alriſtophanes, is a laſting inſtance of the force of the- 
atrieal ridicule: here, indeed, this weapon was uſed 
to an ill purpoſe; but ſurely, what is able to bring 
” wiſdom and virtue into diſrepute, will, with great 
facility, lay their oppoſites under a general contempt. 
There are among us who ſeem ſo ſenſible of the dan- 
ger of wit and humour, that they are reſolved to 
have nothing to do with-them: and indeed they are 
in the right on't: for wit, like hunger, will be with 
great difficulty reſtrained from falling on; where | 
there-is yu plenty and variety of food.

Loan, who are the moſt favourite offspring of the

Pitts Comedy was EEO at We in AMA 
1728; and after it had been ſketched out into 


a few-looſe ſcenes, was thrown by, and for a long 
while no more thought of. It was originally/writ for 


my private amuſement : as it would indeed have been 


little leſs than Quixotiſm itſelf to hope any other fruits 
from attempting characters wherein the inimitable 


Cervantes ſo far excelled. The impoſſibility of going 


beyond, and the extreme difficulty of keeping pace 
with him, were 8 to _ Oe" into a r 


adventurous author. 5 . 


ow, 


1 ſoon diſcoyered too, that my, too Galt experience 


in, and little knowledge of the world, had led me into 


an error. 1 ſoon found it infinitely more difficult 


than 1 imagined to-vary the ſcene, and give my knight 


an opportunity of diſplaying himſelf in a different 
manner from that wherein he appears in the romance. 


Human nature is every where the ſame: and the modes 
yy 4 habits of particular nations do not change it e- 


ugh, ſufficiently to diſtinguiſh a Quixote in Eng- 
from a Quixote in ing | 


— 


1 theſe ſentiments, Mr Booth and Mr Cibber con» 


curred with me, who, upon ſeeing the aforeſaid ſketch, 


both diſſuaded me from ſuffering it to be repreſented 
on the tage; and accordingly it was remanded back 


to myſelf, where probably it would have periſhed in 
oblivion, bad not the ſolicitations of the diſtreſſed ac- 


tors in Drury-Lane prevailed on me to reviſe it, at 


the ſame time that it came into my head to add thoſe 


ſcenes concerning our TR

Man. Let me ſee chem, pray. 
Auth. They are written in ſuch 1 eramp 
hands, you will never be able to read them; but 1 will 
tell 8 ſubltance of them. One of them begins 
with abuſing the writings of all my 1

Man. But don't you think a play, with fo odd 5 
title as yours, requires to be a little 1 May 
they not be too much ſurpris'd at ſome things? 4 
Antb. Not at all. The audience, I believe, are 
all acquainted with the character of Don Quixote and 
Sancho. 1 have brought them over into England, and 
introduced them at an inn in the country, where, I bes 
_  hieve; no one will be ſurpriſed that the knight finds {e- 
veral people as mad as himſelf. This + could have _ 
told them in forty dull lines, if I would; but 1 rather 
. choſe to let it alone: for, to tell you the truth, I can 
draw but one concluſion from all the prologues I have 
ever ſeen, that the authors are ſo ſenſible c the deme- 
rit of aheir plays, that they deſire to ſet the audience 
afſleep before they begin. But of what real uſe is a 
bill of fare to any entertainment, where the gueſts are 
not left to their choice what part they will pick at,

not adviſeable to put them out of humour : for there 
\are two or three of the loudeſt cat-calls in the galler 
that ever were heard.
