LIFE

OF

MRS. SIDDONS.

BY THOMAS CAMPBELL.

"Pity it is that the momentary beauties flowing from a harmonious elocution
cannot, like those of poetry, be their own record;-that the animated graces of the
Player can live no longer than the instant breath and motion that represent them;
or at least can but faintly glimmer through the memory and imperfect attestation of
a few surviving spectators."
