Comments: A tragedy written by Mr Glover, great Applause-but a thought dull (Cross). Never Acted before. [Mainpiece complimented left-handedly by Murphy in Gray's Inn Journal, 8 Dec. The music and scenery were both suited to the piec e, and the acting of it, were there no other inducement, should be sufficient to draw numerous audiences...I cannot but remark that the applause it met with, was scarcely warm enough for such fine writing...I am convinced that this Tragedy will prove an elegant Closet-companion to every reader of taste."] Receipts: #230 (Cross)
