[In the $Shakespearean= Pageant, with figures from seventeen of his plays, the chief effectiveness lay with the Musicians who ushered in each group with appropriate music: <i>Martial Music</i>-The <i>Roman Characters</i> of <i>Coriolanus</i> and <i>Julius Caesar</i>; <i>Soft Music</i>-<i>Antony</i> and <i>Cleopatra</i>; <i>Grand Music</i>, Old $English= Characters-<i>King John</i>, <i>Richard III</i>, <i>Henry VIII</i>: <i>Magical Music</i>, "above, about, underneath" for <i>Prospero</i>; <i>Macbeth's Music</i>; <i>Fairy Music</i>-<i>Oberon</i> and <i>Titania</i>; <i>Solemn Music</i> for Tragic Muse accompanied by <i>Othello</i>, <i>Hamlet</i>, <i>the Ghost</i>, Mad <i>Ophelia</i> and <i>Lear</i> with <i>Cordelia</i>; Dead March in <i>Saul</i>-<i>Juliet</i>'s Bier with attendants; <i>Allegro</i> for the Comic Muse-<i>Falstaff</i>, <i>Touchstone</i>, <i>Launcelot</i>, <i>Malvolio</i>; <i>Andante</i>-<i>Florizel</i> and <i>Perdita</i>, <i>Portia</i> <i>Antonio</i> and <i>Bassanio</i>; <i>Flourish</i>-for Car drawn by the muses carrying <i>Shakespeare</i>'s Bust; <i>Final Song</i> by $Mrs Mattocks=, "<i>Sweetest Bard that Ever Sung, Nature's glory, Fancy's Child</i>--." <i>The Prelude</i> is, in print, entirely favorable to $Garrick='s effort at <i>Stratford</i>. But it could be rendered in a mercilessly ironical manner if the three participating actors so chose. Mainpiece reviewed in the <i>Freeholder's Magazine</i>, Oct.] Receipts: #224 10s.
