* [Mr. Whitbread — it need hardly be added for the present genera- tion of Londoners— was a celebrated brewer. Fifty years hence, and the allusion in the text may require a note which, perhaps, even now (1854), is scarcely out of place. ] 72 REJECTED ADDRESSES.
XV.
AECHITECTUEAL ATOMS.
TRANSLATED BY DR. B.
[DR. THOMAS EUSB7, MUS. DOC. ] Dr. Busby gave living recitations of his translation of Lucretius, with tea and bread-and-butter. He sent in a real Address to the Drury Lane Com- mittee, which... was really rejected. The present imitation professes to be recited by the translator's son. The poet here, again, was a prophet. A few evenings after the opening of the Theatre, Dr. Busby sat with his son in one of the stage-boxes. The latter, to the astonishment of the audience, at the end of the play, stepped from the box upon the stage, with his father's real rejected address in his hand, and began to recite it as follows : — " When energising objects men pursue, What are the prodigies they cannot do ?' Raymond, the stage-manager, accompanied by a constable, at this moment walked upon the stage, and handed away the juvenile dilettante performer.
