First presented in 1697, The Mourning Bride is William Congreve's only tragic drama, which includes two of his most quoted phrases, "Musick has Charms to sooth a savage Breast," (Act I, Scene 1), and "Heav'n has no Rage, like Love to Hatred turn'd, Nor Hell a Fury, like a Woman scorn'd." (Act III, Scene 2).
