VD Lillie Argmtwn;x QWWQ 1 N the old days. as men tell, it was the want to hold fairs in divers places, and among these none were so Fine or so Well-known as that called Bartholomew's, held in Smithfleid, London, and that one held at Donnybrook in Ireland. Many were the wares of- fered for sale at these times, such as cakes and ale. pears and pigs, trinkets and trumpets, pies and pin- cases. drums and dogs, rattles and ribbands, hobby- horses, gilt gingerbread, and more things than there is space to tell of. Nor was entextain- ment of other sorts lacking for the varied assemblage of ballad-men, fiddlers, mouse-trap-men, cutpurses, costardmongers, gamesters, fools, and honest talk that met together at these fairs. Chief among the entertainments was the show or spectacle . And the name of one such show often enacted at the Donnybrook Fair was The Castle of Maidens. Now i can tell only what I have heard, for i was never there; but men say that this show was so like the life that folk took it for the life itself, and that it was the most sought after of all the shows held there. And the argument of this show, as I had it from one who was there, is as fol- lows: The Knight of the Castle of Maidens is a mighty enchanter. Through his own wiles and the machinations of his servants who are equally skiilful-of the truth of this I know not, for as i told you, I was never there-he lures each year a great number of maidens into his castle. There, under the spell of his power, these maidens are forced to undergo a series of trainings or torments. or what they may be called. for a space of four years; and so subtle is the skill of this magician, that at times he can deceive these maidens into believing that their tortures are seif-imposed. He can put upon them whatever shape it pleases him to do, whether it be man. bird, beast. or fish; and whether these enchantments are pleasing or irksome to the maidens it is all one, both to him and to those in his service, as I understand. From time to time a few damsels succeed in breaking the spell, and escaping the vigilance of the guardsmen at the gate, Hee away; but they are either brought back, as I heard or made to endure a fate that it were too grievous to describe. But every year, also, it is the Knight's custom to set free a certain number of damseis who during the period of imprison- ment have suffered their trainings and torments in a satisfactory manner. The history, there- fore, of a given number of these maidens about to be liberated, and of the trials to which they are being subjected-in short, the action of this old show sometime presented at Donny- brook Fair is now for the first time written down, and printed in this book, for whoever may choose to read it.
