To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To say that she is a first-rate actress would be giving her nothing more than her due, but we should probably not be believed, because she had not been brought up at the Park or at Drury Lane. Stars we have seen of the first magnitude who have slione with unrivalled lustre upon both those boards, and can say that they have afforded us no greater pleasure than we have derived from the perform- ances of Mrs. Smith. If it be at all true that the merit of an actress may be justly estimated by the e...ffect which she produces, her claims will be found inferior to few. For we have never yet heard the first person declare himself disappointed or dis- satisfied — we have never seen one wjio did not admit that she always had a just conception of the part she played — that she entered deeply into the spirit and feelings of the character she represented, and that her look, gesture and attitude were always graceful,' natural and appropriate ; and if these, added to other qualities which she possesses, a melodious voice and eloquent de- livery, do not constitute the pei-fection of the histrionic art, then we are at a loss to know what does.
