I'll have a jolly old time,
I'll have a jolly old time, I'll bathe in the surf, I'll ride on the turf, Dance with the girls, Steal all their pearls, And have a jolly old time. (_Exit_ JENKINS) _Curtain_ [Footnote 1: Must not be confounded with "Surf."] [Footnote 2: The reader will notice that this drama was more popular than the Arabian Nights, which only ran for one thousand and one nights.] [Footnote 3: The music of these songs can be purchased at Timbuctoo.] ACT II. _Scene.--Steamboat landing. Real steamboat, real landing, real water, real smoke coming out of a real chimney on the steamboat. Real captain and real passengers. (It is understood that there is to be no make-believe about the fares.) A real chambermaid in the back cabin would add to the effectiveness of the scene, but is not an absolute necessity._ |
