A Parody On Patience is a humorous book written by D. Dalziel and published in 1883. The book is a parody of the popular Victorian-era play, Patience, by Gilbert and Sullivan. The story follows the character of Patience, a milkmaid who is courted by two poets, Reginald Bunthorne and Archibald Grosvenor. In this parody, the characters are exaggerated and satirized for comedic effect. The book includes witty commentary on the Victorian era's obsession with poetry, beauty, and fame. The book's illustrations, created by the author, add to the humor of the story. Overall, A Parody On Patience is a lighthearted and entertaining take on a classic play.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
