The Fairy Bride is a play written by Norreys Jephson O'Conor and was first published in 1916. The play is divided into three acts and is set in Ireland. The story revolves around a young man named Dermot, who falls in love with a fairy princess named Aine. However, their love is forbidden, and they face many obstacles along the way.The play begins with Dermot and his friend, Brian, discussing their love lives. Dermot confesses that he is in love with Aine, a fairy princess who he has seen in the woods. Brian is skeptical but agrees to help Dermot win Aine's love. They set out to find her, and after many trials and tribulations, they finally meet her.Aine is initially hesitant to fall in love with Dermot, but she eventually gives in to her feelings. However, their happiness is short-lived as Aine's father, the fairy king, forbids their love. He threatens to punish Dermot if he does not leave Aine alone.Dermot and Aine are heartbroken, but they refuse to give up on their love. They come up with a plan to run away together, but they are caught by the fairy king's guards. Dermot is imprisoned, and Aine is forced to marry another fairy prince.The play ends with a tragic twist as Dermot is sentenced to death, and Aine sacrifices her life to save him. The play explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the consequences of defying societal norms.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
