Four Sacred Plays

Four Sacred Plays

For the first time in one volume: The Devil to Pay was also written for the Canterbury Festival and was based on the Faust legend. The Just Vengeance was written for the Lichfield Cathedral Festival in 1946. The plot involves around an Airman who has been shot down. His spirit returns to his home in Lichfield where he is shown the meaning of Atonement, his conversion takes place and he then enters Heaven. He That Should Come is a one-act nativity play originally written for radio. Sayers' main concern was to portray the birth of Christ in a realistic social and historical background. The Zeal of Thy House was commissioned for a Canterbury Festival, the plot hinges on William of Sens, the architect chosen to rebuild Canterbury Cathedral's choir in 1174, and his crippling fall during construction.
