Excerpt from Dramas and Dramatic Scenes

The comic selections, in several instances, essentially include, the underplots of the dramas from which they are taken, and are, therefore, quite complete in themselves. Some of the sprightliest pieces, as "Braggadocio" and "Detraction," comprise satisfactory portions of plays that, as a whole, are not adapted to the modern stage. The version of "William Tell" here given is not identical with the common acting edition of that drama.

Though this volume is designed, primarily, to supply scenes for dramatic representation, it may also be used as a rhetorical reader, or as a reference book for students in English literature, since it contains characteristic productions of representative authors, from Shakespeare to Bulwer.

The editor wishes to record his acknowledgment of the great assistance rendered by his wife, in selecting and transcribing material for the entire series of "Eclectic Acting Plays," of which this is the third and last volume. He would also thank Mrs. Robert Rogers, of Cincinnati, for the continued use of her library, rich in dramatic literature.
