In the same kind of way;

And the faults they have damned in "Othello"

They praised in—well, "Hamlet," I'll say.

So that's why I remark,

And would wish to maintain,

That for hair long and dark,

And a voice that was pain-

Ful, the Eminent I. was peculiar—

But I don't think he'll try it again.

The Figaro, March 4, 1876.
