CHRISTMAS COMES BUT CINCH A YEAR,
But although he comes in snow, he still hopes to meet with a warm
reception—but where is he going ? Why, to pay his yearly visit to
the Spirit of John Rich, in the
GHOSTLY CITY OF DEPARTED FUN.
This city is composed of the Tombs of the by-gone Pantomimes—
" Who's dat knocking at der door ?"—Come and see—" J. Andersen's
my Joe, John," and " I am Rich," that's mere than every one can
say ; we wish they could—How to make a Pantomime ?—" that is
the question"—but the answer, it is hoped, will be satisfactory—
Pear Tra SPLENDID with no clemency, so we fly by night" to
A HALL IN THE PALACE 01' GOOD
QUEEN BESS.
We now some to Historical Facts, therefore, as the Clown at
Astley's would say, " Let us be serious." It is an historical fast,
that the Earl of Essex loved, or pretended so, Good Queen Bess,
therefore he hated the Earl of Leicester, and thence arose a conspi-
racy—Sir Walter Raleigh fears his pipe will be put out—Bacon gets
quite in a frizzle, and Lord Burleigh shakes his head—bat there's
nothing in that, whatever they may say to the contrary.
It is an historical fact, that Good Queen Bess was assisted at her
toilet by many of her noblemen, therefore the
GRAND PROCESSION OF THE TOILETTE
is introduced, in which the Royal Wig! the Royal Ruff! ! the
Royal Blushes ! ! and the Royai Petticoat!! I ! will make their
first appearance oa any stage, and trust to the " usaal iadulgenee of
a British ?italic." These are followed by
GOOD QUEEN BESS

an deshabille, as she Is represeraed is a picture at Harapton Court.
—What wines next will certainly follow—and then will be seen
GOOD QUEIIN BESS

in all her royal splendour.—lt is an Historical Fact, that Good
jams Bess, like " Young Susan"—" had lovers so many that she
scarcely knew upon which to deeisle"—and it is an Historical Fact
that the following we-s a few of them.
THE REJECTED ONES:
Philip of Spats, Prince Rupert, Prince of Sweden, Duke of Anion,
Prince Alengon, Marquis of Winchester, the King of Sweden,
Menry of Navarre, Archduke Charles, Earl of Arundel, Sir William
Pickering, Charles Blount, and the Earl of Arran. Good Queen
Bess appoints a meeting of these " wonderons proper men" at
Kenilworth, bat declares, that on her way, " A hunting she will go"
—and having got on the " High Horse," the story gallops on to
CUM N Olt HALL BY MOONLIGHT—WiIson.
"Coming events cast their shadows before"—" Rest thee,
nay darling "—Ketchy, ketchy, ket ;hy—" Put out the light,
and then "—enter the Earl of Leicester on his way to Kenil-
worth— He stops at Love's half-way hone, the Robsar Arms—" Oh,
Susanna," or rather " Oh, Amy :"—lt can't be said, " he makes no
bones about it 'l
—They part, " more in sorrow, than in anger," but,
" being gone, Amy is herself again "—that is to saw, a rather jealous
yeeng lady, who in her " deep despair," introduces her Lovely
Babby, to whom she sings the following pathetic stanza
" Come my babby, come along with me
We'll go to far-famed Kenilworth,
Your naughty dad to see."
And so they do.
KENILWORTH CASTLE

As it appeared en the OCcaSion of Good Queen Bess's Royal 'Visit.
For further particulars Inquire of Sir Walter Scott. It is an histori-
cal fact that Good Queen Bess paid the Earl of Leicester a visit, and
" paid the piper." This, his gorgeous fete, halt ruined hint ; 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, by discovering " that the course of true lave never
did run smooth," for here he meets with some twenty " eompeti-
tears," and to him they do come " petit ears," for they prove per-
fect beam, or, raore properly speaking, bores. A Lovers' Quarrel
on a grand stole, a sort of " tiff for the million," takes place, wkich,
although beginning in love, ends in war, and the total destruction of
THE SPANISH ARMADA!

worst, and Rich finding that even Rich must become poor if war
continues, proposes A " Peace Congress," and brings all to a close
by making them all change their elothes—

Al we have further to say for Good Queen Bess Is—That Regina,
and off she goes." " Welcome, Old Friends, 'tis loa; since we
met !" " Here we arc !" " How are you?"
