Entertainment. . . [1 1/2 column essay on men's lives]  If
dotards will contend with boys in those performances in
which boys must always excel them; if they will dress
crippled limbs in embroidery, and endeavour at gayety with
faltering voices; if they will drag infirmity to the ball,
and darken assemblies of pleasure with the ghastliness
thereof, they may well expect that those who find their
diversions obstructed will hoot them away . . .
