Fourth Edition, with a New Appendix, giving a continuous description of the RIVINGTONS London, Oxford, and Cambridge 1871 Max Coll NAFM If on any of these days there are more visitors than the theatre will hold, the play is repeated on the following day. PREFACE TO THE THIRD EDITION. HOSE who intend to visit Ober-Ammergau THO this year will be glad to learn that the principal characters remain unchanged. A few of the actors in the subordinate parts, among them Simon of Cyrene, "have remained behind in France," as Madame George Lang euphemistically puts it in a letter which she has been good enough to write to me. Joseph Gutzjell, the conductor of the orchestra, and my kind host last year, has left the place; but the villagers are very musical, and they have supplied his place without difficulty. |
