TWENTY-NINTH SITUATION AN ENEMY LOVED (The Beloved Enemy; the Lover; the Hater) A - The Loved One Hated by Kinsmen of the Lover. The preceding Situation might very well be absorbed into this. (1) - The Lover Pursued by the Brothers of His Beloved : - "The Duchess of Main" by Webster; "The Broken Heart" by Ford. (2) -The Lover Hated by the Family of His Beloved: -- "The Story of Yayati" by Roudradeva (with the characteristic color of these Hindu rivalries, wherein jealousy is hardly perceptible); "The Victory of Prady- oumna" by Samara Dikchita; Metastasio's "Cato;" "La Grande Marniere" (Ohnet, 1888). (3) The Lover is the Son of a Man Hated by the Kinsmen of His Beloved: - "La Taverne des Trabans" and "Les Rantzau" by Erckmann-Chatrian. In comic vein: "Dieu ou pas Dieu," a romance by Beaubourg. (4) - The Beloved is an Enemy of the Party of the Woman Who Loves Him: "Madhouranirouddha" by Vira, the contemporary of Corneille; "Les Scythes" by Voltaire; "Almanzor" by Heine; "Lakme"' by Delibes; "Les Carbonari" (No. 1882); "Madame The>ese" by Erckmann-Chatrian; "Lydie" (Miral, 1882); "Les Ama- zones" (Mazel); "Les Oberle" (Bazin, 1905); "Les Noces Corinthiennes" (France); "l'Exode" (Fauchois, 1904). 98
