Hernani

There were much glare and glitter and piquancy and phantasm --much of what has been since seen in "Hernani." The Masque of the Red Death

According to Wikipedia, //Hernani// is a drama by the great French romantic author Victor Hugo. It opened in Paris on February 25, 1830. Its basic plot is that three men, two noble and one a mysterious bandit named Hernani, are in love with the same woman, Doña Sol, a noblewoman. Hernani eventually marries her in the end.

Edgar Allen Poe references this play in //The Masque of the Red Death// to help describe the elegance of Prince Prospero's masquerade.
