Excerpt from The Playgoer and Society, Vol. 4: Illustrated With Which Is Incorporated "the Thratre"; A Monthly Magazine of the Drama, Fashion, and Society All around could be seen the tree-tops, the blue sky peeping through the branches, while the incessant twitter of the birds carried the mind above the earth to their own domains.
