Commencing with the Representation of the Ruins of a Peruvian Temple, where an injured Inca and his Son had taken refuge from the malice of their Persecutors-the Inca in his retirement, making Magic his study, persuades his Son, from a happy presage, to attempt the re-obtainment of his right, by procuring the hand of his Oppressor's Daughter, who is a Spanish Grandee, and has betrothed her to the Knight Errant of La Mancha Don Quixotte-to prevent their union, he transforms his Son to +Harlequin, the Magic Arm appearing to guard him in the hour of Peril-they take leave, and he commences his career of adventure, by darting through the ruined Columns of the Temple, and re-appears near the Grandee's House in Grenada, where an interview takes place with the object of his choice, who elopes with him, and after experiencing a variety of Adventures in the Spanish Territories, seeking shelter in The Alhambrav, a Moorish Palace of great Antiquity, pursued by Don Quixotte, Sancho, the Grandee and Scaramouchillo, at length arrive in Old England; where after a succession of whimsical transitions, warned from the Grotto of the Goddess Pleasure by the Magic Arm-they take shelter in one of the +East India Company's Warehouses, which on their being closely pursued, is transform'd into a Picturesque Chinese Apartment. In this country he is deprived, by an adverse Magician, of his Columbine; and in despair is on the point of destroying himself by Fire, when the Magic Arm appears in the flames to prevent him; the object of his choice is restored by the old Inca, his Father; and their Union and the Restoration of his Right, preceded by their Visit to the Great Wall of China, which separates that Empire from Tartary, after which is seen a Chinese and European Procession; concluding with a Representation of the reception of a British Embassy to China, with the Exchange of Presents in the Grand Hall of Audience. and in despair is on the point of destroying himself by Fire, when the Magic Arm appears in the flames to prevent him; the object of his choice is restored by the old Inca, his Father; and their Union and the Restoration of his Right, preceded by their Visit to the Great Wall of China, which separates that Empire from Tartary, after which is seen a Chinese and European Procession; concluding with a Representation of the reception of a British Embassy to China, with the Exchange of Presents in the Grand Hall of Audience.
