Richard Brome, always called him Father; but it is the misfortune of little wits, that their admirers are as inconsiderable as themselves, for Brome's applauses confer no great honour on those who enjoy them.
When Colonel Hitchcock had left the room, Miss Hitchcock said, as if to remove the sting of her father's indifference: "Uncle Brome's transactions worry papa, for a time papa was deeply involved in one of his schemes, and he worries over Parker, too. He doesn't like to think of what will happen when he is dead. Parker will have a good deal of money, more than he will know what to do with.
In Brome's Travels, is the following notice of his relics: "having pleased ourselves with the antiquities of Nottingham, we took horse and went to visit the well, and ancient chair, of Robin Hood, which is not far from hence, within the Forest of Sherwood.
Thus in Brome's Love-Sick Court the swains and nymphs are led in the dance by characters who have sought and found a cure for love among the country folk.

I began Saints'-days Services, daily Services, and Lectures in Adam de Brome's Chapel, for my parishioners; but they have not come to them. In consequence I dropped the last mentioned, having, while it lasted, been naturally led to direct it to the instruction of those who did come, instead of those who did not.
