Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Scholars and the Children: A Christmas Play
Second old man. - Perhaps you will be so kind as to explain, St. George. You are such a gentleman.
St. George. - Naturally I am. But the Dragon is quite right. He got into Christmas because I kill him then, every year, for a revel, you see. He's very obliging about it. His manners are not much to boast of, I'll grant, but he's really the soul of good nature.
Dragon. - Oh, now! Come on! It doesn't hurt much! Show them how you do it. (throws himself on the ground and roars again. 5 t. George kills him, then strikes an attitude, and with one foot on the Dragon, recites from the old play*)
