Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The British Theatre, or a Collection of Plays, Which Are Acted at the Theatres Royal, Drury Lane, Covent Garden, and Haymarket, Vol. 10 of 25: Tamerlane; Fair Penitent; Jane Shore; Lady Jane Grey; Siege of Damascus
It was the custom, till within a very few years, to perform this tragedy constantly on the 5th of Novem ber, in honour of the landing of the Prince of Orange, afterwards King William - but as that political fire, which once gave brightness to its gloomy scenes, no longer blazes, it is now seldom acted, and never with strong marks of approbation.
