Excerpt from The Masque of Morning: And Other Poems

The Masque is simpler than the pageant, and at the same time more dramatic. Simpler in that only a few persons are required, more dramatic in that language is used. Being simple, and generally short, as well as suited to outdoor pre scutation, it is still the ideal form of entertain ment for groups who like intimate as well as artistic effects.

Either of the Masques in this book can be presented effectively by itself, but a better effect possibly might be obtained by combining the two Masques, (with the Interlude, noon) as one. The Masques of morning, noon and evening may then be considered to constitute a Single Masque Of day. In such case it is merely necessary to use some means for indicating the passing of time - to divide the act into scenes, so to speak.
