Excerpt from Francesca Da Rimini

"Francesca da Rimini" was acted for the first time at Rome, by Eleonora Duse and her company, on December 9, 1901. "Has there, since Hernani," been such a battle over a play in verse? The performance lasted five hours, and many of the speeches were inaudible on account of the noise in the theatre.

De' tuoi dolci parenti
Lasci per sempre. Il loco
