Sir Courtly Nice, or It Cannot be, a comedy by
Crowne, produced 1685, founded on a comedy by the Spanish dramatist Moreto. Leonora is in love with Farewel, a young man of quality, but her brother Lord Bellguard, owing to a feud between the families, is determined she shall not marry him. Bellguard keeps Leonora under watch by her aunt and a pair of spies, Hothead and Fanatick. Crack introduces himself in an assumed character into Lord Bellguard's house and Farewel is enabled to carry off and marry Leonora; while her rival suitor Sir Courtly Nice, a fop, favoured by Lord Bellguard, is fobbed off with the aunt; and Surly, the rough ill-mannered cynic, gets no wife at all.
