Mr. Bayes, the poet, in the Duke of Buckingham's
Rehearsal
, after showing how he has planned a Thunder and Lightning Prologue for his play, says,
| Come out, Thunder and Lightning. | |
| Enter Thunder and Lightning.. | |
| Thun | I am the bold Thunder. |
| Bayes | Mr. Cartwright, prithee speak that a little louder, and with a hoarse voice. I am the bold Thunder: pshaw! Speak it me in a voice that thunders it out indeed: I am the bold Thunder. |
| Thun | I am the bold Thunder. |
| Light | The brisk Lightning, I. |
