The Prophet: A Tragedy is a play written by Bayard Taylor. It tells the story of a prophet named Alwyn, who is a member of a religious sect known as the Children of the Sun. Alwyn believes that he has been chosen by God to lead his people to a new land, but his followers are skeptical of his claims. As tensions rise within the sect, Alwyn's wife, Edith, begins to question his sanity and his ability to lead. Meanwhile, a group of outsiders arrive in the community, including a young woman named Evelyn, who becomes a source of temptation for Alwyn. As the play unfolds, it becomes clear that Alwyn's prophetic visions are not all they seem, and the tragic consequences of his delusions become apparent. The Prophet: A Tragedy explores themes of faith, power, and the dangers of unchecked ambition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
