Bad Spots

Though I have not had time in which to study the written play, I am prepared to assert that certain high-points were not helped by the too-obvious grafting of rhyme onto the text. Poor rhyme which could but irritate and obtrude itself as being out of character.

These bad spots were momentary and soon made up and forgotten as the play forged ahead to its inevitable conclusion—a statement of a theme as old as the Greeks—that Gods (or supernatural agents) and mortals cannot mix.
