Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Drama Purified, Vol. 1: Being a Specimen of Select Plays, in Which All the Passages That Have Appeared to the Editor to Be Objectionable in Point of Morality, Are Omitted or Altered; Containing the Gamester, Jane Shore, George Barnwell, Douglas, Lady Jane Gray To this I shall reply only by saying, that I conceive acie-rgyman to be labouring in his caning, in endea deavouring to remove impiety and immorality, wherever it may exist, and especially from a source of such ex tensive influence; that my endeavour has been to re move the world and the flesh from the Stage, and to fashion it according to the Doc-rams of Christ.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Drama Purified, Vol. 3: Being a Specimen of Select Plays, in Which All the Passages That Have Appeared to the Editor to Be Objectionable in Point of Morality, Are Omitted or Altered; Containing Lionel and Clarissa, the King and Miller, the Toy-Shop, Sir John Cockle There is certainly some fear lest the play should have this cheat upon village maids; and, on that account, I should consider it as a play rather for the higher classes than the lower. It must be remembered, however, that Patty, though born in a lowly sphere of life, is a woman of virtue, of great delicacy of mind, and who has had a good education, which is a most important point in one who is to be the partner for life of a man of rank. The moral might be more strongly defined; but it would be well for the great if they never made a worse choice. The play is not without its alloy of grossness. The same oh jections must be made to Mervin and Theodosia in this play, as to Eustace and Lucinda in Love in a Village; and Giles and Fanny are as objectionable as Hodge and Madge. What the dramatic critic and author has said, respect ing the introduction of a Theatrical Company into a Vil lage, is curious, and deserves most serious consideration. 'he attributes powerful effects to such a measure. Might not this be turned to a good purpose? See my Discourses on the Stage, p. 187, &c.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Drama Purified, Vol. 2: Containing, the Provok'd Husband; The Conscious Lovers; The Good-Natured Man; A Word to the Wise; The Clandestine Marriage But of this I shall speak more at large when I come to consider the play particularly. The Relapse has been since altered and purified from some of its indecencies, by Mr. Sheridan, under the title of A Trip to Scarborough; but it is still, in my opinion, a play not fit for repro scutation.
