John Webster (c.1580 – c.1634) was an English Jacobean dramatist best known for his tragedies The White Devil and The Duchess of Malfi, which are often regarded as masterpieces of the early 17th-century English stage. He was a contemporary of William Shakespeare.
سیاه هماره آنسان سوگوار ریاکاری بوده است،
که دیگر کس باورش ندارد.
به یُمن فریبکاری فرزندان و بیوه گان متظاهر
همه نام و اعتبار خویش از کف داده است.
