Werner or The Inheritance: A Tragedy is a play written by the renowned English poet, Lord Byron. The play tells the story of Werner, a young man who inherits a large estate from his father. However, Werner's newfound wealth and power lead him down a path of corruption and moral decay. He becomes obsessed with his own desires and ambitions, ultimately leading to his own downfall. Along the way, he is confronted by a cast of characters who challenge his beliefs and values, including his sister, who is in love with his best friend, and a group of peasants who rebel against his oppressive rule. The play is a powerful exploration of human nature and the corrupting influence of wealth and power. It is considered one of Byron's most significant works and a masterpiece of Romantic literature.Wer. I could not sleep--and now the hour's at hand! All's ready.
