Both puppet and motion, in their original sense, are now obsolete. “Now will he interpret her” refers to the dialogue spoken by the manipulation of the puppets
“The peeling accents of her voice, is like
a fained treble on one’s voice
that interprets to the puppets.”

The dignity of this act was worth the audience of Kings and princes,
For by such was it acted.
