1917. The scenes of these plays are laid in India with native characters. The underlying motive of each is the seeking of the real amid the unreal, whether love as it appeared to the awaked senses of the ascetic; or the vision of the soul, piercing the shams of the priest to the perception of Deity. Contents: Sanvasi, or the Ascetic; Malini; Sacrifice; The King and Queen.
