CHAPTER CLXXXIX.—p. 217.

THE DOCTOR'S OPINION OF LATE HOURS. DANCING. FANATICAL OBJECTION OF

THE ALBIGENSES; INJURIOUS EFFECT OF THAT OPINION WHEN TRANSMITTED TO

THE FRENCH PROTESTANTS. SIR JOHN DAVIES AND BURTON QUOTED TO SHOW THAT

IT CAN BE NO DISPARAGEMENT TO SAY THAT ALL THE WORLD'S A STAGE, WHEN

ALL THE SKY'S A BALL-ROOM.

I could be pleased with any one

Who entertained my sight with such gay shows,

As men and women moving here and there,

That coursing one another in their steps

Have made their feet a tune.

DRYDEN.
