London, Dec. 7. A little before the play of Barbarossa
began on Friday at Covent-Garden, a young lady of fashion
came into the King's box, with three daughters of about five
years old, all twins, exactly of a size and shape, and
perfectly alike in features; there was no knowing one from
the other: they were very handsome, and their dress being
exactly alike as their persons, added to the prettiness of
the appearance. The audience were so struck with the
singularity of the thing, that they gave a great applause,
and the little creatures curtseying to it, made their
obeisance so exactly all at once, that they seemed as if one
mind inspired them.
