THE IDEAL DRAMA.
Oh think what a change would soon be wrought
In sins society now condones,
Were virtue and honesty properly taught
By Comedy's smiles and Tragedy's groans!
The peer, the scholar, the fool, the fop,
Could learn deportment, high-class, tip-top,
From a Dancing Girl in a Bauble Shop—
At least so thinks Mr. H. A. Jones.
We shall call it "the work," and not "the play,"
