Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Tender Husband; Or the Accomplished Fools, a Comedy: Adapted for Theatrical Representation In the first rise and infancy of farce, When fools were many, and when plays were scarce, The raw, unpracticed authors could with ease, A young and unexperienced audience please; No single character had e'er been shown, But the whole herd of fops was all their own; Rick in originals, they set to view, In every piece, a coxcomb that was new. But now our British Theatre can boast Broils of all kinds, a vast unthinking host! Fruitful of folly and of vice, it shows Cuckolds, and cit$y and bawds, and pimps, and beaux Rough country knights are found of every shire, Of every fashion, gentle fops appear; And punks of different characters we meet, As frequent on the stage as in the pit; Our modern wits are forc'd to pick and cull, And here and there, by chance glean up a fool: Long ere they find the necessary spark, They search the town, and beat about the park; About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
