A Mummer’s Tale

CHAPTER XIV
9/14

I seek a broad, mellow effect.

If I were to listen to Romilly I should mince my words, and the result would be wretched.

I have to say.

'I do not fear you.' It's the great moment of the part.

Do you know how Romilly would have me say: 'I do not fear you'?
I'll show you, I am to raise my hand to my nose, open my fingers and speak one word to each finger separately, in a particular tone, with a special expression 'I, do, not, fear, you,' as if I were exhibiting marionettes! It's a wonder he does not ask me to put a little paper hat on every finger.
