Excerpt from Love in a Village: A Comic Opera, in Three Acts; As Performed at the Theatre Royal, Covent Garden
It is great praise to the author of this opera, that music has neither made his lovers insipid, nor the other characters dull. Young Meadows and Rosetta excite sympathy, and their friends and acquaintance produce mirth; yet. Happily, not that species of mer riment, which makes an enlightened auditor sigh whilst he laughs.
Justice Woodcock' humour 18 and such is likewise the ill humour of his sister, the old maid.
