The Palace of Truth | ||
NOTE.
The Story upon which “The Palace of Truth” is founded is probably as old as the “Arabian Nights.” “The Princess” is a respectful parody of Mr. Tennyson's exquisite poem. It has been generally held, I believe, that if a dramatist uses the mere outline of an existing story for dramatic purposes, he is at liberty to describe his play as “original.”
