William Wycherley’s comic masterpiece, The Country Wife, is a 1675 sex romp and is perhaps the bawdiest of Restoration comedies. Wycherley's play introduces Horner, who claims to be impotent so that husbands and guardians will suppose him a safe companion for their women. His ruse fools the men of London ensuring Horner his way with any and every woman, especially the beautiful, naïve and newly married Margery. In his rollicking comedy Wycherley satirizes marriage, infidelity,  jealousy, and love.
