'The Wonder-Working Magician', also known as 'The Mighty Magician', is a three-act play written by the celebrated Spanish dramatist Pedro Calderón de la Barca. In the first scene of the first act, Cyprian, dressed as a student, is in a wood near Antioch with his companions, Clarin and Moscon, who carry books. Cyprian sends them to enjoy the festivities in Antioch while he stays behind to study. Moscon questions why Cyprian would choose to study on a day of such unrestricted revelry, but Clarin supports Cyprian's decision. Cyprian asks them to stop bickering and leave, and eventually they do.
