8th. […] [W]ent to see an act of “Ferdinand Cortez” at the Opera. Found a note on my return from Lady Mildmay, saying that the “Tancredi” is to be to-morrow, and reminding me that I was to dine and go with them. 9th. Not the “Tancredi,” but resolved to go. Dined with the Mildmays: opera, “Romeo.” They may talk of the profanation of turning Shakspeare’s [sic] stories into operas, but Pasta’s Romeo and Desdemona are to me as touching as the poet’s. |
