His one desire was to make mankind feel, and be conscious of doing so. That was why he could tolerate criticism with less equanimity than a schoolboy the cane. The critics were too pachyderma- tous, too case-hardened for feeling ; and, worse still, they spoke in accents of ice on behalf of z, public he had warmed to enthusiasm.
At last, after a lapse of many years, the course of events brought him back to the theatre he loved so ecstatically.
He shall tell how it all came about in his own langu...age.
The following fragment is entitled, with somewhat of the acerbity of the spoiled child — "EEADE'S LUCK.
" Autobiography is a vile, egotistical thing. It always must be. But there is a set-off: you learn something real about the man, and that is what you will never learn from anybody else.
"Let this, and my recent wrongs, be my excuse for troubling you with one chapter of my public life. I can- not divest such a thing of egotism, any more than I can wash the spots out of a leopard; but I promise it shall not be unmixed egotism, but shall lead to general conclu- sions of public utility.
