Synopsis

Witty verse and sharp satire from a witty mind

A classic collection of burlesque translations, dramatic pieces, and miscellanies that blends humor, satire, and playful verse. Readers get a window into early comic poetry and theatrical curiosities in one compact volume.

It includes lively pieces like mischief-driven skits, occasional addresses, and light verse that highlights the era’s comic voice. Expect brisk wit, lively meters, and playful endings that keep the tone entertaining without losing its period flavor.

Dramatic pieces and occasional addresses designed for the stage
Humorous poems about social types, fashion, love, and everyday life
