Synopsis
Excerpt from Two Interludes: I. Jacke Jugeler, II. Godly Queene Hester: From the Unique Originals in the Possession of His Grace the Duke of Devonshire, K. G., &C., &C., &C.; Edited, With Introduction and Notes
T is like placing the flint-weapons and rude utensils of our Forefathers, beside the splendid rifle and dainty work of Worcester or Sevres, to resuscitate such rudia mentary dramatic productions as the Temptacyon of bishop bale (in Vol. II. Of these Miscellanies) and the present Enterludes. The contrast is almost grotesque between them and the like, and the consummate Tragedies and Comedies of the Elizabethan age, from Marlowe's mighty line to all-in-one William Shakespeare. Nevertheless as educated Thinking and Science find much to interest and illustrate else dark epochs, in the rudest memorials of our Ancestry, so the genuine student of our Literature Will not despise the least and lowliest examples of its first putting forth of the dramatic instinct and faculty.
