Description

Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 104, April 29, 1893

From the Common-place Book of The O'Wilde.The play? Oh, the play be zephyr'd! The play is not the thing. In other words, the play is nothing.

"Everything ends in smoke, my dear boy, except the cigars of our host." Use this when host is a parvenu unacquainted with the mysteries of brands)shred into the mixture a wronged woman, a dull wife, and, if possible, one well tried and tested "situation," then set the whole to simmer for three hours at the Haymarket. The result will be But to predict a result is to prophesy, and to prophesy is to know. (N.B.Work up this rough material. It will come right, and sound well when polished up.) ......Buy Now (To Read More)
