[In the Preface the author discusses her difficulties with the <i>Epilogue</i>. The managers did not think it safe to speak the Epilogue without a License. As she could not get it approved in time, $Norris= spoke "six Lines Extempore" asking the audience to excuse the defect and promising one for the second night.
