Comments:
At the particular Desire of several Ladies of Quality. Mainpiece: Written by Shakespear. Daily Advertiser, 30 Jan.: In the...London Evening Post of last Saturday, there is a Remark, that the first Comedy and first Farce perform'd under the Act for Licensing Plays, were both damn'd by the Town on Account of the said Act.--Believe it not:--To do the Devil Justice, they were both damn'd because they Both were Most Damnable Things, and on no other Account whatsoever. Yours, Tomo Chachi
