Philaster or Love Lies a Bleeding is a play written by Francis Beaumont in the early 17th century. The play is set in the kingdom of Sicily and revolves around the love triangle between Philaster, the prince of Sicily, his childhood friend Bellario, and the beautiful princess Arethusa. Philaster and Bellario both fall in love with Arethusa, but she only has eyes for Philaster. The plot thickens when a jealous nobleman named Dion tries to sabotage Philaster's chances with Arethusa, leading to a series of dramatic events that culminate in a tragic ending. Along the way, the play explores themes of love, loyalty, jealousy, and betrayal. Philaster or Love Lies a Bleeding is considered a classic example of Jacobean drama and has been praised for its poetic language, complex characters, and intricate plot.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
