Overview

Excerpt from Miscellaneous Pieces, in Prose With refpe t to the firfi, it is univerfally allowed that the dramatic form is by far the moft perfect. The circumfl'ance of leaving every character to difplay itfelf in its own proper language, with all the va riations of tone and gefture which diflzin guifh it from Others, and which mark every emotion of the mind; and the fcenic delufions of drefs, painting, and machinery, contribute to Ramp fuch an appearance of reality upon dramatic te prefentations as no other of the imitative arts can attain. Indeed, when in their perfection, they can fcarcely be called imitations, but the very things themfelves; and real nature would perhaps appear leis perfect than her counterfeit.
