EARLY French Thenters.

The French theater owes its origin to
the religious exhibitions given by the
pilgrims on their return from Palestine.
At these exhibitions the pilgrims gave
an account of the Holy Land and re-
cited their own adventures. They We're
afterward initiated by those who had
never been to the Holy Land. To these
succeeded dramatic representations Of
subjects taken from the new text
which, being forbidden by the provost
of Paris, the priests of France invited
the king to be present at an exhibition
to prove that they We're calculated to
excite religious feelings.
The building in which those plays
We're produced was divided into three
scaffoldings--the highest represented
paradise, the second the world and the
lowest, which was in the form of 6
dragons head, represented hell. TIL,
only enhance to the two upper scaffold
ings was through the dragon head
The actors never left the stage, ever
to change their dress, and the play
were so long as to require several day
for their completion. At the close o
each evening the audience was invite
to return until the whole were finished
sometimes 40 nights.
