- EXPOSITION
- CONFLICT
- RISING ACTION
- While returning from a victory in battle with his prizes Hippolyta and Emelye, Theseus, the Duke of Athens, is asked to resolve a conflict with Creon, the King of Thebes. He wins two hostages, Palamon and Arcite, and locks them in a tower.
- CLIMAX
- Arcite and Palamon see Emelye in the garden outside of their tower, and instantly fall in love with her.
- FALLING ACTION
- Arcite is set free and Palamon escapes. They both cannot leave Athens for long without being drawn back to Emelye. They challenge each other to a duel and are discovered by Theseus, who plans a final tournament for them a year hence, between each man and their respective armies.
- RESOLUTION
- Both men ask for help from the gods before the battle, which causes a conflict between Mars and Venus. Jupiter, the king of the gods, resolves this by having Arcite win the battle, but being thrown from his horse and gravely injured.
- On his deathbed, Arcite tells Emelye that she should marry Palamon, a worthy knight.
- All of Athens grieves for Arcite’s death, and then Palamon and Emelye are married in a joyous ceremony, which Theseus arranges.
