Finsbury Fields (Moonlight),

with distant view of the Tower. How Big Ben's band of rebels,
though wide awake chaps, are discovered asleep —how the old
woman of Finchley arrives in her Patent ,Erial Maehine —how,
having travelled through the air, she obliges us with another after a
draught—how she summons her Court of Elves ! who appear them-
selves in a twinkling, and court her commands—how they are in the
da-k as to her intention, and how she enlightens them—how, having
arrived from a planet, they plan it, at any rate, to separate the Fair
Mayde of Chepe (which is most foul) from her true lover Hal, and
give her to Rig Ben—how the Elves, being told to put on other a:-
tire, they all retire—how Sergeant Guzzleale inflicts corporal punish-
ment on his band—how the lightest blows do not fall on the heaviest
sleepers—how these heads lead to a continuation of oar tale— bow
Hal, the Fair bfayde of Chepe, and apprentice Lads and Lasses, with
their Maypole, come to "dance by the light of the moon"—how soon
they dance to another tune—how Hal and Maude, having seized this
opportunity to declare their parsion, are presently seized with a ven-

which proves a regular brick—how one fight is stopped by a Zoo-
phyte effect—how the very trees speak, setting all agog who cut
their sticks, without axing for their leaves, branching off in all direc-
tions—how a long " skilly" ," shall he" argument is cut short by a
spirited movement—how the old woman still hatching new means
of vengeance Is surprised by a Fairy Nest—how she becomes chicken
hearted and takes wing—how Humpty Dumpty takes pleasure in
pursuing her to
