The Well of the Saints is a play written by John M. Synge. It tells the story of Martin and Mary Doul, a blind couple who have been living in isolation for years, believing that they are both physically unattractive. However, when a man named Timmy arrives in their village, he tells them that they are actually quite beautiful. Martin and Mary are initially skeptical, but as more people confirm Timmy's assessment, they begin to believe that they have been living a lie. The play explores themes of self-deception, beauty, and the nature of reality. It is set in rural Ireland and is written in Synge's distinctive style, which blends poetic language with a realistic portrayal of rural life. The Well of the Saints is considered one of Synge's most important works and is still performed today.TIMMY -- [coming out, with a hammer, impatiently.] -- Do you want me to be driving you off again to be walking the roads? There you are now, and I giving you your food, and a corner to sleep, and money with it; and, to hear the talk of you, you'd think I was after beating you, or stealing your gold.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
