DOWNLOAD EBOOKArden of Feversham is an Elizabethan play that depicts the real-life killing of Thomas Arden by his wife Alice Arden and her paramour, and their subsequent discovery and punishment. Excerpt: "Sweet love, thou knowest that we two, Ovid-like, Have often chid the morning when it 'gan to peep, And often wished that dark night's purblind steeds Would pull her by the purple mantle back, And cast her in the ocean to her love. But this night, sweet Alice, thou hast killed my heart: I heard thee call on Mosbie in thy sleep."
