The work revolves around themes of love, financial irresponsibility, and social commentary, centering on the complex romantic pursuits of Valentine, a young man in debt, and his love for Angelica, a wealthy woman with whom he aims to secure affection during his financial ruin. At the start of the play, we are introduced to Valentine, who is struggling with his father’s displeasure over his extravagant lifestyle. He is in love with Angelica but believes that his poverty could be used as leverage to heighten her affections. His friend Jeremy provides comic relief and wisely warns him against pursuing poetry as a way to gain Angelica's love. Meanwhile, the interactions among various characters, including the foppish Tattle and the superstitious Foresight, set a lively tone, entwining humor with social critique as the characters navigate their relationships and the expectations of society. The opening establishes a rich comedic atmosphere and sets the stage for the unfolding drama.
