Description:Excerpt from Plays Art sat on her throne of white clouds, in the Court of Triumphant Aspiration, surrounded by glittering princes who once were her subjects on earth. Three muses suddenly entered the assembly, and knelt at the goddess's feet. "A prize!" cried one sweet voice after the other, "for my charge, your truest worshiper below!" Art quietly silenced the lyrical noise, and spoke to the first kneeling form: "Let me see why it is that he whom you attend deserves so great a reward." She raised her wand and diminished space, and the Earth stood close before her. "See, see!" exclaimed the muse, in glee, "that town burns with his praise! His name is painted on the walls in streaks of blazing gold! Behold the crowds, and hear the shouts! His work is passing by. And lo! there at the window he stands in all his pride!" Art did not reply for a moment to the rhapsodies of the first muse. Her eyes were disdainfully scanning the artist's vainglorious face. Her eyes became still more disdainful, as he lifted his hand to his lips and murmured in self-adoration: "How much I have done for you, O Art!" Then she laughed, amidst the derision of the entire court, "To boast of what he has done for me?" And the crestfallen muse quit the attendance. "O how different is mine!" the second muse proudly began; "notice how he sits alone in his rags and misery! Ghosts of hunger and neglect lie against his icy chest; still his trembling fingers clutch his brush and unsold pictures."
