Exploring themes of betrayal and forbidden love, this tragedy follows Locrine, the eldest son of King Brutus, who rules England (excluding Cornwall). After a victorious battle, he becomes infatuated with a woman from the enemy camp, despite being warned to stay faithful to his betrothed. The poem's unconventional rhyme scheme reflects Swinburne's bold departure from Victorian norms, addressing controversial topics like sensuality and loyalty, which led to significant criticism during his lifetime.
