First Sentence

The pleasures of lamenting the decline of tragedy among us have perhaps gone stale, so for a change we might lament the decline of comedy, and quite as loudly, since we have no less an opinion than Plato's that the tragic know-how and the comic know-how may be much the same, which makes their declines about equally affecting.
