The title character of this play eventually dies from a piece of firewood falling on his head, though he survived running through enemy lines multiple times to deliver letters. Those letters, though actually written by him, were signed by his friend Christian, as the two men both had their eye on the same woman. Earlier in the play, he also hid under that woman's balcony and spoke to her as if he were Christian. For ten points, name this play by Edmond Rostand about a titular large-nosed man in love with Roxane.
