Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Plays for Puritans: Being the Third Volume of His Collected Plays This is all very well but the trumpet is an instrument that grows on one and sometimes my blasts have been so strident that even those who are most annoyed by them have mistaken the novelty of my shamelessness for novelty in my plays and opinions. Take, for instance, the first play in this volume, entitled The Devil's Disciple. It does not contain a single even passably novel incident. Every old patron of the Adelphi pit would, were he not beglamored in a way presently to be explained, recognize the reading of the will, the oppressed orphan finding a protector, the arrest, the heroic sacrifice, the court martial, the scaffold, the reprieve at the last moment, as he recognizes beefsteak pudding on the bill of fare at his restaurant. Yet when the play was produced in 1897 in New York by Mr Richard Mansfield, with a success that proves either that the melo drama was built on very safe old lines, or that the American public is composed exclusively of men of genius, the critics, though one said one thing and another another as to the play's merits, yet all agreed that it was novel - original, as they put it - to the verge of audacious eccentricity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Plays for Puritans Why was this? What is the matter with the theatre, that a strong man can die of it? Well, the answer will make a long story; but it must be told. And, to begin, why have I just called the theatre a playhouse? The well-fed Englishman, though he lives and dies 3 schoolboy, cannot play. He can not even play cricket or football: he has to work at them that is why he beats the foreigner who plays at them. To him playing means playing the fool. He can hunt and shoot and travel and fight; he can, when special holiday festivity is suggested to him, eat and drink, dice and drab, smoke and lounge. But play he cannot. The moment you make his theatre a place of amusement instead of a place of edification, you make it, not a real playhouse, but a place of excitement for the sportsman and the sensualist.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Hundred Years Ago: An Account of the Ejection of the Puritans From the Church of England, and the Efforts Made to Restore Them, With a Sketch of Their Rise It was in this reign that a very important change took place in the Church, which had a remarkable effect on the Puritan controversy. During Elizabeth's time the dispute had been concerning the ceremonies and government of the Church; in doctrines both prelates and Puritans were agreed all held Augustinian views, and all agreed in interpreting the Articles of the Anglican Church in an Augustinian or Calvinistic sense.
