215E (Vol. 2)

Transcription

The finest and most interesting groupe [sic] of characters lamenting the fall of the great and illustrious Abercromby struggling with his only conqueror, Death, was last night witnessed for the second time at the Royal Amphitheatre, Westminster bridge, in the new military and naval spectacle of British Glory in Egypt. We regret that the limits of this paper will not admit of an elucidation of the leading circumstances in this brilliant production; circumstances that must live in memory, and immortalize its heroes till time itself shall be no more! The piece commences with a fleet of the line, (a thing of the kind never before witnessed on the stage,) disembarking the troops; and, what is more astonishing to remark, a legion of real cavalry and infantry is seen on the stage.
