Don Quixote encounters courtly life. This is the second of a three-play sequence which was the first dramatization of Cervantes's novel Don Quixote. Written in English by the Playwright and Lyricist Thomas D'Urfey, it was originally performed with music by Henry Purcell (only the lyrics, by D'Urfey, are presented in this recording). - Summary by ToddHW
