The Dupe is a comedic play written by Frances Chamberlaine Sheridan. The story follows the character of Sir Toby Bumper, a wealthy but naive man who is easily manipulated by those around him. His close friend, Lady Sneerwell, takes advantage of his trusting nature to further her own selfish goals, while his love interest, Maria, must navigate her own way through the complicated web of deceit and manipulation that surrounds Sir Toby. As the plot unfolds, the characters scheme and plot against one another, leading to a series of hilarious misunderstandings and mistaken identities. With its witty dialogue, engaging characters, and clever plot twists, The Dupe is a classic example of 18th century comedy that continues to entertain readers and audiences to this day.Sharp. Come, come, I know you don't dislike me at the bottom of your heart: you think me saucy, but agreeable, a devilish agreeable fellow. Ah, you little rogue! there is an arch smile of assent under that angry brow, that makes you look so enchantingly!This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
