[QUOTE="yourturntoloveit, post: 3762, member: 57"]Kentworld, it is a sweet book from another time. I forgot to mention that in addition to costuming there is a scenery list for each "entertainment." In "The Postman" there is a poem which ends with "What matters it whom he may serve -- The pauper or the king? For he himself may never know what tidings he doth bring." Young lady -- "Oh Postman, tell me if you bring a message sweet for me-- a letter from a sailor boy who sails upon the sea." The Postman replies: "Oh pretty maid, [B]this letter do I bring for you to-day; But what it is, or whence it came, I really cannot say[/B]." The Postman uses the same (bolded above) line each time he delivers a piece of mail.[/QUOTE]
