CHRISTMAS COMES BUT ONCE ► YEAR,
But although he comes in stow, 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 f"—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—
Peer Tra-ge-tly meets with no clemency, se we fly by night" to
A SPLENDID HALL IN THE PALACE OF GOOD
QUEEN BESS.
We now come to Historical Facts, therefore, as the Clown at
astley's would say, " Let as be serious." It is an historical fact,
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 pat out—Bacon gets
quite in a frizzle, and Lord Burleigh shakes his head—bit 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
14 introduced, in which the Royal Wig ! the Royal Ruff ! the
Royal Blushes ! ! 1 and the Royal Petticoat 1 1! 1 will make their
first appearance 01 any stage, and trust to the " anal indulgence of
a British Public." These are followed by
GOOD QUEEN HESS
en deshabille, as she is represented is a picture at Hampton Court.
—What comes next will certainly follow—and then will be seen
GOOD QUEEN BEES
n her royal splendonr.—lt is an Historica Fact, that Good
Jueen Bess, like " Young Susan"—" had lovers so many that she
scarcely knew mama which to decide"—sad it is as historical Fact
shat the following were a few of them.
TUE REJECTED ONES :
Philip of Spats, Prince Rupert, Prince of Sweden, Duke of Anjou,
Prince Aleiwon, Marquis of Winchester, the. King of Sweden,
henry of Navarre, Archduke Charles, Earl of Arundel, Sir William
Pickering, Charles Blount, and the Earl of Arran. Good Queen
Bees appoints a meeting of these " wonderous proper men" at
Kenilworth, bet declares, that on her way," A hunting She will go"
—and haying got on the " High Horse," the story gallops on to

my darling "—Ketchy, ketchy, ketchy—" Put out the light,
and then "—enter the Earl of Leicester on his way to Kenil-
worth—lle stops at Love's half-way house, the Robsar Arms—" Oh,
Susanna," or rather " Oh, Amy!"—lt can't be said, "he makes no
bones about it "—They part, " more in sorrow, than in anger," but,
" being gone, Amy is herself again "—that is to say, a rather jealous
young lady, who is her " deep despair," introduces her Lovely
Vabby, to whom she sings the following patheile stanza :
" Come my babby, corns along with me
We'll go to far-famed Kenilworth,
Your naughty dad to see."
f And so they do.

As it appeared on the occasion of Good Queen Bess's Royal Tis
For further particulars inquire of Sir Walter Scott. It is au histori
:al fact that Good Queen Bess paid the Earl of Leicester a visit, and
"paid the piper." This, his gorgeeus fete, half ruined him ; there-
fore we pity his fate, but must admire his wondrous generosity, for
he ever hoped for in return was—half-a-crown. The Earl fore-
stalls Shakspere, by discovering " that the course of true love never
did run smooth," for here he meets with some twenty " eompeti-
tcurs," and to him they do come " petit sours," 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 destractien of
