Summary Annotation Those featured in Volume 10 include Margaret Martyr, a singer, actress, and dancer whose "conjugal virtues were often impeached," according to the July 1792Thespian Magazine. The Dictionshy;arydescribes this least constant of lovers as "of middling height, with a figure well-proportioned for breeches parts. [Her] black-haired, black-eyed beauty and clear soprano made her an immedishy;ate popular success in merry maids and tuneful minxes, the piquant and the pert, for a quarter century."
