...effect depends, and who is the life and soul of the comedy. Next in importance is Chateaufort, the boaster, who is always trying to ruin some one. Pierre Paquier is the stupid servant who acts as messenger between Granger and Genevote. These three characters are the chief comedians, who turn the play from a tragedy to a comedy...
...romantic manliness and nobility of M. Rostand's hero. The actual Cyrano, it was known from the start, had been poetically idealized by M.

It seems to me only just, therefore, that for his three or four years in college he should have the best opportunity to watch their play and to encourage it, and then that he in turn should give way to the next generation.
