The Wedding Day A Comedy In Two Acts PDF Download

Excerpt from The Wedding Day: A Comedy, in Two Acts The title given to our play Is whimsical and odd, you'll say, Because announced - the Wedding Day. But know you not, my friends above, [to the galleries] 'Tis what you one and all approve? For when you squeeze each others hand - And find your wishes at a stand, You press the Wedding Day, and cry Come, let's to church, my dear, and try Who loves the truest - you or I. Then, as 'tis known a day of bliss. Pray let it not prove here amiss; For tho' elop'd - I know not how - From next door neighbours - just below - And hither come to make her bow - Like other trips of gallant love, Constant to both you'll find her prove, Or who is right, or who is wrong, With me to state does not belong; But only to proclaim the banns, And leave to you the applauding hands; Nor hope to find one critic here, Will dare forbid our wedding cheer; But give their usual friendly boon, And let's enjoy the honey-moon. To laugh is all our author means In what she pourtrays in her scenes, And aims, in all she dares to write, To make her Wedding Day - a merry night.
