Love's Victory

About the show

Venus sends Cupid to punish shepherds and shepherdesses who neglect her, setting off a tangle of loves and mistaken suspicions. Philisses loves Musella, while Lissius loves Philisses's sister Simeana; Silvesta's vow of chastity frustrates Forester. When Musella is forced toward marriage with Rustic, the lovers appear to die before Venus and Cupid reveal the truth and restore the couples.
