Excerpt from Cumberland's British Theatre, Vol. 18: With Remarks, Biographical and Critical; The Highland Reel, Two Gentlemen of Verona, Taming of the Shrew, Secrets Worth Knowing, the Weathercock, the Somnambulist, All's Well That Ends WellThe dialogue, songs, characters, and nucidents, are quite in the style of o'keefe - quibbling, comic, and sometimes extravagant. There is a chirrup'ing tone about this lively writer, that no suc ceeding dramatist has caught. He seems in perfect good humour with himself, and all the world: and in the midst of his fun and frolic he throws in a sound moral, a dash of feeling, as delightful as they are unexpected.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
