Plot Summary:Cater Clifton, an able young writer, walking along the beach, comes upon a young man about to commit suicide. Clifton prevails upon the young fellow to go with him to his home. In Clifton's library the young man pours out his story. He has been spurned by the girl he loves. Life is no longer worth living and hence his attempt to end an unhappy existence. Clifton listens as the young man talks and then he in turn tells a story. Madge Morton, a clever and accomplished young woman, is bored with her doctor husband, who is utterly engrossed in his work. Clifton had loved her when she was a girl. He comes back and Madge tells him of her unhappiness and its cause. Dr. Morton's young cousin, Alan James, is beset with heart trouble. He comes to the home of Dr. Morton in search of health. He becomes infatuated with Madge, though younger than she. The Mortons go to their place by the sea and Madge and the boy are thrown more and more together. Alan makes love to Madge and implores her to flee with him. She refuses, though refusal is hard, but she invites Clifton to come and visit them, and for Alan she invites Celia, whose girlish sweetness Madge thinks Alan soon will capitulate. Celia falls in love with Clifton, who has given his heart long ago to the unsuspecting Madge. Alan, as was expected, promptly falls in love with Celia. His heart gives way and he is forced to take to his bed. He asks that Celia read to him. She does so and he proposes marriage. Celia cowers back, covers her face and sobs out her refusal. The excitement is too much for Alan, whose weak heart cannot stand the strain. He gasps for breath and falls back, dead. Clifton finishes his story with a vision of the characters: the woman, bored and unhappy; the man, lonely and sad; the girl, sobbing her heart out in secret; the lover, dead. Only Peter, the man who put work first in his life, has found content. The young man thanks Clifton for the story and departs declaring that all his energies henceforth will be devoted to work. Clifton, as the young man leaves, smiles whimsically. The door of his study opens and in comes Celia. The long sleeve of her negligee gown sweeps from its stand, the vase with which Clifton had toyed as he talked to the would-be suicide. She stoops to pick up the fragments, a rueful expression on her face. Clifton stops her. \"Don't bother, dear. You've broken my Tragic Circle about which I've been inventing a woeful story for the good of a lovesick young man.\"
