F 82 We see a table covered with black, whereon two waxen tapers are burning; at one end stands the King's picture and at the other a crucifix; whilst Onoelia is walking about " discontentedly weeping to the crucifix, her maid with her/' the dialogue is sung, expressing the silent despair of the forsaken wife. ^ sor-row, say where dost thou dwell? luthelow-est Bg^tt^ ^^BEiJ^JEa room of he]l!

In a number of comedies which are now quite forgotten we find his name. In a " Woman's Riddle" (1717) a widow, Lady Outside, sings a humorous song by him, ''How Unhappy's the Nymph who Barters her Treasure. " His song, '' Says Dickie to Dolly, " in the ''Virgin Sacrifice, " is a springing, catching tune with a quaint snap which was popular at the time. The most interesting of Turner's contributions for the stage is the music he supplied for Shadwell's " Liber- tine.
