BOCCACCIO'S UNTOLD TALE
A Play
By Harry Kemp
[Scene: A lower room in Florio's house. It is wide and simply furnished.
In the center, at back, is a large doorway, hung with great black arras. In the right-hand extreme corner is a small altar to the Virgin.
In wall, at back, high up on left, a small window.
A smaller doorway, hung with arras of black, is on the left, well toward the front. This doorway gives on the study of the poet.
At rise of curtain the stage is lit with the uncertain light of tapers.
