Final answer:
In the play 'Cyrano de Bergerac', Cyrano and Christian make an arrangement to work together to win Roxane's love.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the play 'Cyrano de Bergerac' by Edmond Rostand, Cyrano and Christian make an arrangement to work together to win Roxane's love. Cyrano, who is a skilled poet but lacks confidence in his appearance, agrees to provide the romantic words and sentiments that Christian, who is physically attractive but lacks eloquence, will deliver to Roxane.
This arrangement allows Cyrano to express his feelings for Roxane indirectly and allows Christian to appear more intelligent and passionate than he actually is. By combining their strengths, Cyrano and Christian hope to win Roxane's heart.
This arrangement creates a complex love triangle, as Roxane falls in love with the words and emotions expressed by Christian but believes them to be her beloved Cyrano's. Eventually, Roxane discovers the truth, leading to a tragic and emotional conclusion.
