| 520 | _a"A Parody on Princess Ida" by D. Dalziel is a comedic theatrical work written during the late 19th century. This book serves as a parody of Gilbert and Sullivan's opera "Princess Ida," utilizing the setting and characters to craft a humorous narrative focused on the absurdities of railway travel and society's gender dynamics of that era. This parody follows the storyline of the original, providing a satirical lens on the concepts of love and duty entwined with the railways of the time. The plot unfolds in the kingdom of King Hilderbrandt, who awaits the arrival of King Gama and his daughter, Princess Ida, for a long-planned meeting. However, Princess Ida, who has sworn off men and lives in a female enclave, remains unyielding despite the efforts of Prince Hilarion, the betrothed prince, to win her affection. Amidst the witticisms and antics of the royal families and their entourages, the characters encounter disputes, mistaken identities, and humorous banter while navigating their respective desires. Ultimately, the parody leads to an impromptu wedding ceremony, highlighting the comedic interplay between duty, romance, and the allure of the Chicago and Alton Railroad, insisting that an official of the Alton Road is simply irresistible.
