Note 63 — CARLO GOZZI. (continued 4)
John Addington Symonds translation
Gratarol gives a vivid picture of this throng. "Many hundreds of persons were sent away from the doors, since the vast area of the theatre was crammed full. Boxes, which on ordinary nights were paid two pauls, this evening brought a couple of sequins, and not a single one was empty."—Narrazione, vol. i. p. 68.
