THE PATIENT AT PLAY.

_Adviser._ Have you ever been present at a performance of _The Dead

Heart_?

_Patient._ No; and I know nothing of a _Tale of Two Cities_.

_A._ Then surely you are well acquainted with _All for Her_?

_P._ I regret to reply in the negative.

_A._ Perhaps, you have seen the vision in _The Bells_, or the _Corsican

Brothers_?

_P._ Alas! I am forced to confess I am familiar with neither!

_A._ Dear me! This is very sad! Strange! I will give you a prescription.

Go to _Paul Kauvar_. You will then be provided with a thoroughly

enjoyable mixture.

[_Exit Patient to Drury Lane, where he passes a delightful evening._
