Twelfth Night, Act 1, Sc. 1 If music be the food of love, play on, Give me excess of it ; that surfeiting, The appetite may sicken and so die That strain again ; it had a dying fall : O it came o'er my ear like the sweet south, That breathes upon a bank of violets, Stealing and giving odor. The contemplation of the " beautiful, " whether sen- sibly or mentally, tends to fill the beholder with pleasure ; and this delight is shown in the countenance, so that a smiling or pleased expression of fac...e (which it is so easy to assume) will materially aid the reader in giving the vocal expression. The diminuendo requires moderate force at the be- ginning of each word, which you desire to mark by it; that moderate force should gradually become less THE TONES OF THE EMOTIONS. 143 and less, until at the termination of the word it has vanished into inaudibility, or has become a mere point of sound. Perhaps this little illustration will convey a better idea of my meaning to some minds: OOOOOOO. Pronounce the word "oh" with lessening degrees of force ; prolonging the word, but not repeating it on each impulse 1 ; then practise the intonation on a higher key, using the same word, "oh, " "OOOOOOO"; now practise it on a lower; then change freely about from one key to another.
