This is an easy-to-read retelling of John Ford's "Love's Sacrifice." People who read this version first will find the original play much easier to read and understand. According to Charles Lamb, "Ford was of the first order of poets. He sought for sublimity, not by parcels in metaphors or visible images, but directly where she has her full residence in the heart of man; in the actions and sufferings of the greatest minds." According to Algernon Charles Swinburne, "Ford is rather a sculptor of character than a painter."
