Book Description
Excerpt from The Dramatic Works of Mary Russell Mitford, Vol. 1 of 2 Where my passion for plays began, it is difficult to say. Perhaps at the little town of Alresford, when I was somewhat short of four years old, and was taken by my dear father to see one of the greatest tragedies of the world set forth in a barn. Even now I have a dim recollection of a glimmering row of candles dividing the end which was call ed the stage from the part which did duty as pit and boxes, of the black face and the Spangled turban, of my wondering admiration, and the breathless interest of the rustic audience. My dear father! How, to the very last, he loved to take his pets to the play! More than fifty years must have passed since that evening in the barn, when, happening to dine at Reading, attended by the beautiful little brown spaniel, who followed him everywhere, he, and of course Flush, accompanied his host to the theatre, to see the charming actress and charming woman, Mrs. Orger. They sate in the place of honour close to the stage. Flush, with his paws on the front of the box, his large earnest eyes fixed on the actors, and his long silky ears brought forward on either side. Of his face, as is the custom of those intelligent dogs on great occasions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
