It was first performed in 1798 and is considered one of her most popular works. The play follows the story of Agatha, a young woman who falls in love with Anhalt, a man of lower social standing. Despite their differences, they plan to marry, but Agatha's father disapproves of the match and forbids it. In order to convince him, Anhalt decides to perform a play called ""Lover's Vows"" in which he plays the lead role. The play explores themes of class, love, and morality, and is known for its controversial content at the time of its publication. It is a classic example of 18th century drama and remains a popular work in the English literary canon.ANHALT. Why do you force from me, what it is villanous to own?--I love you more than life--Oh, Amelia! had we lived in those golden times, which the poet's picture, no one but you ---- But as the world is changed, your birth and fortune make our union impossible--To preserve the character, and more the feelings of an honest man, I would not marry you without the consent of your father--And could I, dare I propose it to him.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
