The Passion play is the chief modern example of the miracle play. The French mystre distinguished those plays containing biblical stories from those about the lives of the saints. The auto, the medieval religious drama in Spain, was acted concurrently with the secular drama throughout the Golden Age and into the 18th cent. Calder—n was the greatest composer of the auto sacramental, which dealt with the mystery of the Mass in allegory.
