musick

1798, Joanna Baillie, Count Basil, Act 1, Scene 2. Enter Count Basil, Officers and Soldiers in Procession, with Colours flying, and martial musick. When they have marched half way over the Stage, an Officer of the Dukes enters from the opposite side, and speaks to Count Basil, upon which he gives a sign with his hand, and the martial musick ceases; soft musick is heard at a little distance, and Victoria, with a long procession of Ladies, enters from the opposite side.
