Synopsis
Excerpt from The Standard-Operaglass: Containing the Detailed Plots of One Hundred Celebrated Operas, With Critical and Biographical Remarks, Dates &C
Though short and unpretending it really deserves to be heard, the music is so full of sweetness, so fresh and pretty.
The text is taken from a tale of the Arabian Thousand and One Nights, and though full of non sense, it amuses by its lightheartedness and gaiety of spirit.
