This was a play written in the 1600's about a man's friend who has an affair with his wife. The husband sends her away to live in isolation where she stops eating as a way to redeem herself from the sin. Guilt is the way that the wife is killed with kindness. In its own way it's a horrific death. There is a subplot of a brother selling his sister for a night to wipe away his gambling debts. Yes there were better plays written around this time but it was ok.
