The Bride of Abydos can be a reference to three possible works:


The Bride of Abydos, a heroic poem by Lord Byron

This was published in 1813. It is the source for the other two works.

For more on the poem, see for example the entry in Wikipedia[1]

The Bride of Abydos, a "tragick play" in three acts by William Dimond

This was first performed at Drury Lane Theatre, London, on 5 February 1818 and is based on Byron's poem of the same name. The text was staged and published the same year by Richard White in London.
