The Dupe: A Comedy is a play written by Frances Chamberlaine Sheridan. The story revolves around the character of Sir Toby Jollup, a wealthy and foolish gentleman who is easily deceived by his acquaintances. Sir Toby is tricked into believing that his wife is having an affair, leading him to take drastic measures to catch her in the act. Along the way, he is manipulated by various characters who have their own agendas. The play is filled with witty dialogue and satirical commentary on the upper-class society of the time. It was first performed in 1779 and is considered one of the best works of Frances Chamberlaine Sheridan.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.
