Mainpiece: Written by the late Sir John Vanbrugh. Afterpiece: Taken from the French of Moliere. Lady Stafford to Lord Wentworth, 4 Jan.: I hear their will be a vast riot to night at the Play, for young Cibber is to act and the Templars are resolved to hiss him off the stage. 6 Jan.: Young Cibber was vastly hiss'd a Thursday, but his old friend Impudence kept him from being either out of countenance or in the least disturb'd at the noise.-Wentworth Papers, p. 541
