[In an article on the character of Queen Elizabeth]. . . It
is, indeed, said that she was a great comedian; but this
must be considered metaphorically with respect to the part
she acted as a refined politician, in bringing foreign
Princes into her views, and keeping her subjects in a state
of tranquility, by making them applaud all her enterprizes.
