There, about the private stage-door, he would linger day after day, watching the players (great and happy people they !) as they went to, or returned from rehearsal, and making conjectures, from their appearance, which of them was likeliest to be the one that usually played Hamlet. But when he could obtain by any means a shilling, the admission price to the high gallery, was not his happiness complete? There, perched far aloft, he...
