" Raymond and Agnes" as burlesqued by Robertson was never produced ; and little did the disappointed author dream, as he went home with his rejected manuscript in his pocket, that he would in a few years be the means of establishing Miss Marie Wilton and Mr. John Clarke as ranking amongst the best comedians, in the highest sense of the actor's calling, of their day.
That the piece was written up to burlesque standard may be shown by the following amusing parody (put into the mouth of Don Raymon...d) on Claude Melnotte's famous speech in " The Lady of Lyons": EARL Y DA YS— STRUGGLES -jc) " Raymond, speaUng to Agnes.
I'll order dinner. Could I paint the feast, Could love fulfil its prayers, I'd give thee — list — A damask cloth whose whiteness snow surpasses.
Laid with decanters, knives, forks, finger-glasses.
With a bride-cake, and bon-bons fiinged with gold.
