To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The audience isheld spell-bound, --yet, for my part, I should have welcomed a greatervariety in tone and action. [Illustration: Ellen Terry as Kate. ] Miss ELLEN TERRY's _Queen Katharine_ is a "very woman. " You can seehow she has caught the King, and how she still holds him. She loveshim, actually loves him, to the last to respect him is impossible, butshe respects herself; and it is just this love for him, for what hewas, not what he is, and her respect for herself, which Miss ELLENTERRY mark...s so forcibly. _Katharine_ is a foreigner, therefore isher bearing, though stately, less stolid than that of the typicalEnglish Tragedy Queen. The note of her dying scene, so striking byits simplicity, is its perfect tranquillity. Who's _Griffith_? Whythe veteran HOWE (ah, Howe, When and Where did I first see you, Sir? Wasn't it in the days when good old Mortonian farces were theattraction at the Haymarket?) is "_the_ safe man, " and excellentlywell did he deliver his epitaph on _Wolsey_. But all are good, notforgetting our old friend the sterling, that is the ARTHUR STIRLINGactor as _Cranmer_, and the youthful GILLIE FARQUHAR, unrecognisableas _Lord Sands_, looking as ancient as if he were The Sands of Time.
