Excerpt from The Stage, Vol. 3 of 3: Both Before and Behind the Curtain, From "Observations Taken on the Spot"

The Serpentine like a fair to-day; skating is surely giving away a chance - a worthless mode of closing one's career, conferring no honour on the one, and extracting no kind of regret from the many; and yet some eight or ten to-day had too much of water - here break we off again.
