Book Description
Excerpt from Regia Insignia, or an Account of the King's Honourable Band of Gentlemen Pensioners, or Gentlemen at Arms Pensioners, is a demi-military Corps and is more pregnant with history than one would imagine from its present appearance, which differs exceedingly in complexion from what it was at its institution. It has changed, not only with the fashions of the times; but, according to some writers, with the exigencies of the court; and though an insight into its establishment and revolutions may be of no importance to national history; yet, xit may be found to deserve some attention, being still a splendid branch of the Royal Escort. It was originally composed of Cadets of Noble Families. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Epicoene
Author: Ben Jonson
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781515119777
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
Epicoene, or The silent woman, also known as Epicene, is a comedy by Renaissance playwright Ben Jonson. It was originally performed by the Blackfriars Children or Children of the Queen's Revels, a group of boy players, in 1609. It was, by Jonson's admission, a failure on its first presentation; however, John Dryden and others championed it, and after the Restoration it was frequently revived-indeed, a reference by Samuel Pepys to a performance on 6 July 1660 places it among the first plays legally performed after Charles II's ascension. The play takes place in London. Morose, a wealthy old man with an obsessive hatred of noise, has made plans to disinherit his nephew Dauphine by marrying. His bride Epic ne is, he thinks, an exceptionally quiet woman; he does not know that Dauphine has arranged the whole match for purposes of his own. The couple are married despite the well-meaning interference of Dauphine's friend True-wit. Morose soon regrets his wedding day, as his house is invaded by a charivari that comprises Dauphine, True-wit, and Clerimont; a bear warden named Otter and his wife; two stupid knights, La Foole and Daw; and an assortment of "collegiates," vain and scheming women with intellectual pretensions. Worst for Morose, Epic ne quickly reveals herself as a loud, nagging mate."
