Heartwell, a bitter bachelor who claims to scorn women, falls for Silvia and marries her—only to discover she's another man's discarded mistress. But the wedding may not be what it seems. Meanwhile, deceptions multiply as friends disguise themselves, foolish knights chase wealthy heiresses, and a young wife schemes behind her jealous husband's back. This Restoration comedy weaves together multiple romantic intrigues where nothing is quite as it appears. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
