I did not consider it as any part of my charge to invent new ideas altogether, and to offer no sentiment which had ever...
Seite 413 - There were eight or ten more lines, but Peter destroyed them in his wrath. In the region of wild burlesque, where the ridiculous, by its intensity and mass, becomes the sublime, I never met any one to approach " Peter," except our amazing Medea-Robson.
