"Love's Labour's Lost" by William Shakespeare is a comedy written in the mid-1590s. The King of Navarre and three companions vow to avoid women for three years to focus on study. Their oath crumbles when the Princess of France and her ladies arrive, sparking romantic entanglements on all sides. Through disguises, switched letters, and clever wordplay, the men pursue the women who outwit them at every turn. But an unexpected death disrupts
the usual comic ending, forcing all marriages to wait a year. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
