We now some to Historical Facts, therefore, as the Clown at
Astley's would sat " Let us be serious." it is an historical fact,
that the Earl pf lasex loved, or pretended so, Good Queen Bess,
tArefore he hated the Earl of Leicester, and thence arose a conspi-
raey—Sir Walter Ralegh fears his pipe will be pat out—Bacon gets
wilts in a frizzle, and Lord Burleigh shakes his head—but there's
nothing in that, whatever they may say to the contrary.
It is an hilgorical pact, that Good Queen Bess was assisted at her
toilet 115, many of her noblemen, therefore the
GRAND PROCESSION OF THE TOILETTE
is introduced, in which the Royal Wig ! the Royal Ruff !! the
Rpyal Blushes ! ! ! and the Royal Petticoat ! ! ! will make their
fffst appearance on any stage, and trust to the " usual iadulgenee of
a British Public." These are followed by
GOOD QUEEN BESS

—What comes next will certainly follow—and then will be seen
GOOD QUERN BESS

sl
so many Fact, that Good
4neei Bess, like " Young Susan"—" had lov that she
scarcely knew upen wh eh to decide"—and it is an Historical Fact
that the following 11370 a few of them.
THE REJECTED ONES :
Philip of !pale, Prince Rupert, i'rince of Sweden, Duke of Anion,
Prince Aarbson, Marquis of Winchester, the King of Sweden,
Henry of-Navarre, Archduke Charles, Earl of Arundel, Sir William
Pietering, Charles Blount, and the ESrl of Arran. Good Queen
Bess appoints a meeting of these " wonderous propershe
go"
—and having got on the " High Horse," the story gallops sou to
CUMN OR HALL BY MOONLIGUT—WiIson.
" Coming events cist their shadows bee "out—" Rest

worth—He stops at Lore's half-way 'bailie, the Robsar Arms—" Oh,
Susanna," or rather " Oh, Amy !"—lt can't be said, " he makes no
bones about it "—They part, " more let sorrow, than in anger," but,
" being gone, Amy is hersttif again "—that is to say, a rather jealous
young lady, who in her "deep despair," introduces her Lovely
BOO', to whom she sings the following pathct* e stanza :
" Come my babby, come along with me
go to far-famed Kenilworth,

And so to vtir do

KENILWORTH CASTLE
As it appeared an the occasion of Good Queen Bess's Royal Visit.
For farther particulars inquire of Sir Walter Scott. It is an histori-
sal fast that Good Queen Beta paid the Earl of Leicester a visit, and
1' paid the piper." This, his gorgeous fete, half ruined him ; there-
fore we pity his fate, but must admire his wondrous generosity, for
all he ever hoped for in return was—half-a-crown. The Earl fore-
stalls Shakspere, lay discovering " that the course of true !eve never
did run smooth," for here he meets with some twenty " eompeti-
teurs," and to him they do come " petit ours," for they prove per-
fect bears, or, more properly speaking, bores. A Lovers' Quarrel
on a grand scale, a sort of " tiff for the million," takes place, which,
although beginning in love, ends in war, and the total destruction of
