The Family of Love is a play written by Thomas Middleton, first performed in 1608. The play revolves around the story of a wealthy merchant, Sir Walter Whorehound, who falls in love with a young woman named Luce. However, Luce is already married to a member of the controversial religious sect known as the Family of Love. Sir Walter becomes obsessed with Luce and decides to join the Family of Love in order to be closer to her. The play explores themes of love, religion, and social class, as well as the dangers of fanaticism and religious extremism. Middleton's play is known for its witty dialogue and sharp satire, and is considered one of his most successful works.GERARDINE The coast is clear, and Argus' wakeful eyes Securely sleep: time turns to us his front.
