Abdelazer, or, The Moor's revenge

by Aphra Behn

A vengeful Moor attempts his revenge on the family of Spanish nobles who killed his father and usurped his kingdom when he was a child. After seducing the queen, killing the king, and almost raping the princess, Abdelazer's reign of destruction is brought to an end. His angry, prideful spirit never fails, even as he dies.
