Thus, the very dialogue becomes mixed with the narration; for he must not only tell what the characters actually said, in which his task is the same as that of the dramatic author, but must also describe the tone, the look, the gesture, with which their speech was accompanied, — telling, in short, all which, in the drama, it becomes the province...
Side 295 - Crown Cases reserved for Consideration, and decided by the Twelve Judges of England, from the year 1799 to the year 1824. By William Oldnall Russell, and Edward Ryan, of Lincoln's Inn, Esqrs.
